are my heroes. The ones I looked up to are now gone, there were a few in the 60's and 70's.
when i say jw hero i mean a jw who courageously did what was right despite the indoctrination and peer pressure to conform to cultishness.
i have an unknown jw hero that i've never met but only heard of from an experience relayed to me about an incident at a jw funeral.. i was told that at a jw funeral internment, a non-jw put a wreath in the shape of a cross on the grave.
shortly thereafter a jw elder came up and removed the wreath.

I wonder is there any coalition in the increase of witnesses in a country when
they have a increase in immigrants.
Since the relaxation of the Belgium nationality law more than 1.3 million migrants have
acquired citizenship. In 2007, there were 1.38 million foreign-born residents in Belgium.
The increase here in the USA come from immigrants.
just watch the movie "contact" and it gave me an idea.. our population on earth today 8-9 billion, a day where all of mankind pray, beseech,.
plead for god to show us a sign that he is still up there.
one day all around the world.
Calebin: WOW! I really appreciate that. I have never thought about some of the points
you made,"the WT is ant-Semitic, what is missing from all those people dressed in different
garb of different nationalities". And yes my Jewish friend never got to wear his head covering
in the KH or a beard and prayer shawl..
I believe he only became a JW because of his wife, she was black. They divorced and he have
not been seen since. This happen around 1970...
i give you a hint.
who stole first, "eve".

Stuckin, you heard it before. Ok for those of you who didn't realize baseball

In the big inning, Eve stole first, Adam stole second, and later, the prodigal Son
ran for home.
OH hell folks, I thought it was funny.

Calebin: Thanks. My early years in the organization a friend was Jewish.
I never got the opportunity to sit and talk with him, he was a elder and
I was new in the organization. But i was curious why he became a JW.
I thought if this man believe it's the truth, by GOD it must be...
To go from Judaism too JW, that a big stretch..
i saw an instagram post showing a short clip of a talk being given in one of our southern states.
the talk clip showed speaker making the statement, "jehovah doesn't want anyone to know satans real name, jehovah hates satan so much, he doesn't even want his name mentioned" .
i posted in comments: matt 5:44-48 with the full scripture rendered from niv.
the desire to have the company of a beautiful woman is so great, that angels were willing to leave heaven for a few forbidden moments of touching, kissing, and caressing---and then be destroyed..
genesis 6:2 (gnt) some of the heavenly beings saw that these young women were beautiful, so they married any woman they chose..
by the way, whats wrong with marriage?.
Why there are women in heaven.
Why do only 40% of men go to Heaven? (A) If they all went
it would be hell..
i've met a few.
i'm not talking about the jw who, whether df'd or not, falls off the radar and just gets on with living a normal life - good luck to them and may there be many more!.
i mean the former jehovah's witness who is now enjoying all the benefits of a cult free life thanks to the efforts of many bloggers, posters and activists, but is critical of the efforts of someone close them to free more jws.
My daughter and family are happy JW's , but they are not fanatical.
But if the day comes when they start questioning the organization I will be there
for them.
