Do/did you sing in the Kingdom Hall meetings against you will?
by Mr Fool ini m a little curious because i have hard to see that every single person has the interest to stand up and sing in the beginning and in the end of every meeting...... what will happen if you are interested in the so called truth, not to stand up and sing a song against your will?!
then, is it okay to sit down like normal when everybody else copy each other (stand up an sing a certain text/song) as parrots?.

Mr Fool
Hmmm...okay. If someone visiting a meeting and in advance, before the meeting begins, tell people there that "I am interested in the Truth, but I have zero interest in standing up and sing, so I will remain sitting when others sing. I hope you respect my will".
Will they try to stop you to take part or how do they handle a situation like that?

I am having trouble believing in God...
by thedepressedsoul ini was raised a jw and i am still one but recently i have been having trouble believing in a god.
this is not meant to offend anyone who does, i am just curious to see if i am the only one who thinks this..... to start, i am a very black and white person.
if 1+1=2 it makes sense to me and i can agree with it.

How is it possible to be sure of anything (in God for example) if I am unsure of my existence in the first place? Memories, so called evidences and personal experiences, are they all illusions? I don´t´KNOW. All I´m doing (if I exist) is guessing.

Egyptian Timeline Research
by konceptual99 inhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-23947820.
it is suggesting that the accepted dates for the egyptian timelines need to change.
does anyone have a more informed and scholarly view on this?.

With more than 60 samples of Carbon 14 dating of Khufus boats found close to his pyramid in the 1950s', the dating shows 3400BC to 2600BC. The flood was 2370BC and according to the Organization of Truth, the ancient egypt civilisation started AFTER the flood....lol!

In "The Truth"?
by rockhound inwhile at assemblies we would often see friends" in the truth", and one of the questions they would almost always ask is, are your kids still "in the truth"?
it seemed the thing to ask, with so many falling away from" the truth".
reflecting on that expression "in the truth" i think that most witneses feel as i did, that the watchtower had pretty much cornered the market on "truth" from god's word, hence the feeling that if we stayed close the the watchtower organization, we without doubt had,or were in, or were closely associated with "the truth" .
-
Mr Fool
A strict honest question; How shall I KNOW that I´m in the Truth if I not even KNOW if I exist? I assume/guess /think I exist, but it can be an illusion too and the illusion itself may not exist. The Truth may or may not exist either, or maybe. I have no knowledge whatsoever, even less about if I´m in the Truth or not. Please don´t take my words too seriously, I may not exist after all. Or maybe not.

How the WT would look if written in 1st person: SO DISGUSTING
by Antioch inhow would the watchtower of july 15th read if the watchtower was written in 1st person from the ones allegedly preparing an dispensing spiritual food (ie the watchtower)?
why is it written by a faceless 3rd person telling readers what to think about the people who are allegedly dispensing the very material i'm reading?
i was reading the july 15th article and laughed at the ridiculousness of it all.. .

Am I wrong or right please clarify if you know
by Skeptical78 ini recently became aware of the new light.
please correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't this new light concerning 1914 means that the wt have been preaching the wrong doctrine for decades?

Mr Fool
-Is it true or a lie that some of the generation of people living 1914 will see the end?
-It's a lie!
-You would have answered the opposite 30 years ago , right?!!

Love Bombing
by Bangalore inlove bombing.. source : http://www.rationalrevelation.com/tr/lovebomb.html.
the term "love bombing" originated with the moonies to describe a step in their process of conversion.
new members are sought out, friendshipped, and invited to group events.

The prestige that the JW's (who asked me to visit KH) will get, may not be what they wished. I´m eager to ask some humble and modest (true/false) questions to the people there

I want to experience how that love-bombing turns out in action and test myself. I may go there soon to find out.....I know a few Jw there and through them I understand that many are intrested in who I am with odd questions and ideas about and against the Wt.
