  what do you think is the main reason why so many young ones are waking up?

  by Crazyguy in

  2. beliefs

  seems as though the number of baptisms even for the young ones is down from what people report here.

  at my former hall the young ones are all in totally sheltered even while going to school.

  expressing thier desires to pioneer etc.

  @ smiddy:

  That is an excellent point. What exactly is the message anymore? If I were to put 100 witnesses on the spot and ask them what the message is, 99 of them would stutter before giving you a vague, head-scratching response.

  Are Witnesses really "Bible Students"?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we were always told that as witnesses we were "sincere bible students".... carefully examining the scriptures.. yes, we were indeed taught much about the content of the bible, it's history, prophecies etc..... but it was always from one perspective....that of the society.

  when the society changed its interpretations, we had to do the same..... so were we really "bible students", or "society students"?.

  just a thought.....

  The JWs aren't bible students, they're Watchtower students.

  You took the words right out of my mouth!

  Resolutions at Kingdom Hall

  by sieborg in

  1. watchtower

  anyhow i got to thinking today about my days in the borg and the resolutions that would intermittently be made in the announcements for co visit expenses, sending a donation to society www fund etc.

  my point is that while i was in (almost thirty two years) i never once saw anyone put up their hand to vote against a resolution that the body of elders proposed.

  on a couple of occasions i heard a few hushed murmurs but i never saw one person vote against.

  I remember seeing one or two vote against something years ago. But it did not matter. The "resolutions" are shams anyway.

  Excellent Conversation At Literature Trolley

  by cofty in

  2. experiences

  yesterday my wife and i enjoyed one of our regular days out at edinburgh - movie, lunch, walk, meal etc.. in the late afternoon while mrs cofty went shopping i had an hour at the excellent museum of scotland and arranged to meet up outside the national gallery on princes street.

  on my way back i saw the jw trolley was at the usual spot on the royal mile.

  there was an older man and a young woman standing well back trying hard to look inconspicuous.
