Is this a forum for JW issues or a poorly designed political and celebrity site?
by Band on the Run in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
it appears to me that even in the few months that i have been here there is less and less emphasis on jehovah's witnesses and anything remotely related to jws and more very poor posts about politics, foreign affairs and celebrities.

i can't omit the juvenile sex ones, which i find lacking in erotic nature.

it seems the 6th grade boys are meeting in the locker room.. the posts that involve jws have a very different tone from the drivel posted on others.

Pangs of Conscience - June 2011 KM
by dozy in
1. jw
2. friends
there is an article in the latest kingdom ministry about counting time spent in the ministry.

one comment surprised me - it says that counting time wrongly can lead to "pangs of conscience".

a bit of an ott expression , i can't help thinking.. the only pangs the local pioneers are concerned about here are hunger pangs as they head to dunkin donuts for a 40 minute "break".

Are You Raising An Introvert?
by darth frosty in
1. jw
2. friends
its not easy being an introvert in an extrovert worldespecially when youre a kid.

it is even more difficult if none of the adults in the kids life recognize that the child is an introvert.

this doesnt happen only when the childs parents are extroverts, but also with introverted parents who have never understood their own introverted nature.. .

If People Told you the JW's Would Change These Beliefs & Practices.....

would you have believed it ?

( i give credit to the poster password protected for giving me the idea of this thread ) .. after exiting the witnesses in 2003 i have noticed many changes within the wt society which really surprised me but after analyzing the changes - they really have convinced me the wt society and jehovah's witnesses are a mind control cult intent on ruling people's lives.

here are some i have noticed that have changed :.
