  Question about JWs and adultery

  by Sally in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if a single jw brother and a married sister are involved (secretly wishing her husband will commit adultery so she can get a divorce) and get caught, can't the husband get a divorce and the couple just get df'd for a year, get reinstated, and be together?

  what's so hard about waiting a year if everyone welcomes them back and they end up together?

  does this religion have anything to do with jehovah?

  Sally,

  It does, and it doesn't.... those people would be looked down upon forever.... they would no longer be popular. However, some elders and bodies are partial, that's for sure....

  It's true - they will get re-instated, if they are really good. The problem is that they don't differentiate between sinning in regard to fornication or watching a PG-13 movie. They are fanatical, over the top, weird, crazy, and seem so nice when you first meet them.... they all do, don't they?

  Trust me - after being in for 8 years they are NOT!

  Isn't that enough to make you want to strangle the father? Jehovah's witnesses are so nice.... I want to kick one right now just for hearing about that....

  Israelite tabernacle and temples....of pagan origin?

  by Alana in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i believe that it was the history channel that i was watching this weekend....it was about egypt--land of the gods.

  in it is talked about the ancient gods of egypt and the elaborate egyptian temples.

  then, it spoke of how when the israelites left egypt how they at first had their movable tabernacle and then their temples and how the set-up of them with the courtyards and the holy and most holy places were based upon the pharoahic worship and temples of the egyptians.

  by Mary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  seems president bush is somewhat peeved that canada is considering legalizing small amounts of marijuana............those who have small amounts would no longer face jail time, but it would basically be treated as a traffice ticket.

  hmmmmmm.............not sure what i think about this.

  pot stinks to high heaven (no pun intended) and i don't want someone blowing it in my face...........any thoughts?
