Active JW's, can you defend "THE TRUTH?"

by DATA-DOG in

as of yet, no member of the jehovah's witness faith can defend their unique beliefs.

when the dust settles, it all comes down to blind faith in men's ever-changing ideas.

this "unique belief" was not a "true teaching of the bible.

DOT: Take your time. You had a lot of information thrown at you.

Remember to take everything with a grain of salt.

Don't let anyone tell you what you should believe. That is your choice . This site and others are just tools we can use.

It's up to each of us to decide how to use it.

Please make sure you are careful about talking about your concerns. JWs have a fine tuned apostatedar.

Read some of the threads you find interesting, do some research and use your critical thinking. Listen to Punk and don't forget to breathe.

DJS : I think you are being a little hard on kass. The thread was over 100 pages. That's alot to wade through. Kass said up front he didnt read all of the posts.

Kass: be sure to click on Cofty's summary link. That will catch you up on the discussion. Take your time.

I found myself giving the automatic cliche responses and had to stop and ask myself if I really believed it or was I just parroting what I was taught.

It's not the distination, it's the journey. Everyone has to get there their own way. Some take longer than others.

my wife told me today that during a conversation with a relative on the phone recently, the relative said that someone in their congregation had been invited to take part in a branch extension in a foreign country.

this young woman who had been asked to take part is a solid witness, though not a pioneer, but guess what?

she is an architect!

I thought the main point of the counsel about higher education was to keep the kingdom's interest first.

So it would be okay to use a college education to help promote the kingdom message.

After all many corporations invest in educating their employees if it benefits them.

The society just doesn't want people going if it is for personal gain.

so rule of thumb....good for them yes....good for you no.

CW study: you might consider starting your own thread. You might get more responses. You can still use the original guidelines for Truth in your discussion.

Those are good questions and would make a great discussion.

I watched it. I really enjoyed it. I would be interested in what others thought about it.

It really made me realize how insignificant we are in the grand scheme of things.

When it's your time to go...............

by Night Owl in

jw

if you believe "when it's your time to go, it's your time to go" then cause of death does not matter.

plane crash, school shooting, accident, war, or anything else.. if you have this mind set, then any event resulting in a human death is just fulfilling a pre-determined destiny for that human.. you also cannot pick and choose as to which event, or rather, death, is in the "when it's your time to go, it's your time to go" scheme of things or not.. nightowl.

EOM Glad to hear you have a plan B worked out. Maybe you should go the cryogenic route in case the god thing doesn't turn out.
