  What Do Un-Believers Not Believe?

  by mensa163 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  one of the things that used to annoy me in the new testament was the "believe in jesus" message.

  any explainations seemed fuzzy at best so i decided to take a run at it from behind and find the definintion of an un-believer.here is what i came up with and i welcome other opinions.

  many of the people around jesus were jews, they walked with him, talked with him, listened to his teachings and witnessed his miracles.

  As far as I know the the combination of the two names "Jehovah" and "God" was invented by Taze Russell in the 19th century. As far as I can tell Jehovah God was never used prior to that time. Is this correct?

  Girls Have Cow-Like Sex Drive According To Watchtower

  by AlanF in

  how can girls guard against temptation in this sex-crazy world?.

  when a girl reaches the age of puberty or physical maturity, her body has developed in the matter of sex more than in the mind.

  young folks like to be together, first in groups, later in twos.

  My daughter, who is a JW is coming to our area for some sort of convention (I think) and going on to Hawaii for a convention there. This will happen in the fall.

  I know they are not payed enough by the org. She lives in Patterson and works there.

  Can someone tell me who would pay her way. What is this business of conventions. Are they every year? Do they have a big convention every so many years? What is the purpose of these conventions?

  Do You Feel That You Were Brainwashed Into Becoming A JW?

  Funny how my views on the general thinking of the Democrats (Liberal) and Republicans (Conservative) are the opposite to Minimus. I am neither one or the other. I suppose I could call myself an Independent. Of all the people I know the republicans think more rationally, using the facts available to arrive at a conclusion or course of action. The Democrats that I know and listen to on TV and radio,seem to think through the heart with little consideration to all the facts as they are. Any one in a discussion of importance that prefaces the sentence with the words "I believe" are not thinking the subject through. I would certainly not take any action in the real world based on what I believe (mental conviction).

  Critique volunteers for letter to the Society?

  by Jourles in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have finally completed my letter to the society and am looking for a few volunteers to help critique it.

  by suggestion from the elders, they said to keep it simple and to the point(one said to just bullet my questions and leave it at that).

  well, i veered slightly off from those two parameters a bit but i had to do so to make my points clear.
