  Is There Any Thing That Would Make A JW SERIOUSLY Question Their Religion?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i realize that jehovah’s witnesses have been dumbed down for long time now.

  .

  still, i think there must be something that would make them really question their beliefs, even their life.. i think that if witnesses were told they could take blood or that disfellowshipping was unloving, they might stop and take a hard look at everything they have sacrificed their lives for.. i know the organization has muddled these subjects before but the i think even die hard witnesses might start to second guess the governing body..

  Admins & Mods ... who are they?

  by Tallon in

  this is just a general query, and am hoping someone can clarify.. a lot of web forums usually list the usernames of the admins & moderators.

  i have not seen listed, unless someone can show me otherwise, the admins & moderators of this web forum.. from what i can gather, simon is the owner & admin of this web forum.

  scully has just locked a discussion thread - so i'm guessing that s/he is either an admin or moderator.. who are the admins & moderators ?.

  about 10 years ago there was a brilliant piece by a legend on this board - may have been farkel.

  it was where he showed how ludicrous it was to flit between solar days lunar months a solar day for a 360 day year but those years are 365 to come up with 1914. i have tried searching but struggled.

  does anyone remember it and if so can you point to it with a link please?

  JW Rumor: End of the Traveling Overseer

  by Edison Trent in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  a friend of mine has contacts to a family with several circuit overseers and special pioneers.

  they have good connections to bethel.. he told me that the latest rumor from bethel states that the cos should be abolished in their present form.

  they have also recently begun to take cos back to bethel.. over the same channel i have already heard of the car fleet program and that the dos should be abolished.. has anyone else already heard of it?

  I was told this in 1991 when that infamous watchtower that was corrected for bound volumes said the end would be before the end of the century. Same old same old rinse repeat and drink the cool aid
