  by My Name is of No Consequence in

  i am sure that it has been discussed before.

  but just out of curiosity, what is the orgs view on extraterrestrial life?

  the org certainly agrees that the universe is infinitely large.

  @ JW_Rouge:

  Is life the same as intelligent life? I believe that you are correct that the org has not addressed the possibly of "unintelligent" life on other planets.

  Little green men seem more believable then universal sovereignty. BTW is there any biblical support for universal sovereignty?

  @ Oubliette:

  I agree. But I don't think that they put angels in the same category as "aliens" or "little green men". You do bring up a good point.

  I am sure that it has been discussed before. But just out of curiosity, what is the org’s view on extraterrestrial life? The org certainly agrees that the universe is infinitely large. But do they agree that it is possible that we are not alone? Do they concede that life (even in its most rudimentary form) could exist somewhere in the far reaches of space?

  How To Test a J.W.'s Loyalty/Stupidity

  by The Searcher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  "would you do absolutely anything which the governing body instructed you to do?

  for example, sell your home and possessions, move in with another witness, and send all your money to the org?".

  if 'no', they're showing that they will pick and choose which org directives they will follow.

  Me: "Would you do any and everything that the governing body asks?"

  Wife: "Well, not everything."

  Me: "Where would you draw the line?"

  Wife: silence

  Is it true? Heard a rumor WT postphones Disfellowshipping until further notice!!??

  by Olivia Wilde in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am not sure if it's true but i heard from a good source that wt has given instructions to elders to postponed disfellowshipping members from wrong doing/gross sin until further instructions given by headquarters.

  i heard some jws were just reproved either privately or publically.

  has anyone else heard anything like this recently?

  No way, but that would at least be a step in the right direction though.

  Why don't they just charge $10 for general admission? Children under 5 get in free. Adults over 65 get in free. Problem solved. Oh, wait...

  what is it like to have that one true friend?

  growing up in the org, i never really had friends.

  i had many acquaintances, some of which were worldly.

  @ Closer to Fine:

  Most of my family (with the exception of my siblings) are "strong in the truth" as far as I know. I sometimes wonder how my former "worldly" associates are doing. It has been about 6 years since I was made to get rid of them. (I remember that night.) There is at least one that I would like to contact.

  I try my best not to feel sorry for myself. Like I mentioned, I at least have a decent job and a home. But sometimes I really get lonely and just want someone to talk to. Can you be married, live in the same house and be lonely? Yes! Sometimes days go by and we say nothing to each other. I will share some of the blame.
