my mother gave me the tapes (that i gave her back in december) of combating mind control by steven hassan, saying that she didn't have a tape player... reminded me of three years ago when i gave her crisis of conscience by ray franz and she said it's to big book to read and she's not a reader.

I would NEVER allow a child of mine to spend unsupervised time with ANY JW, relative or not. Certainly no overnight visits.

Involved with a JW woman

by jonza in

okay so i'm dating a born-in jw woman, she's younger than me and has no kids.

i'm a christian man whos divorced with 2 kids.

we're in love and seriously want to be together.

NAVYTOWN

Don't even THINK about having children with her until you have been MARRIED for 3-5 years. Better to just focus on the kids you already have. Why not suggest that neither of You participate in ANY religion for at least a year or two. That will get the religion issue out of the picture. Then you can see if you are compatible WITHOUT religion Interfering.

Im new and need help!

by Batman89 in

hello everybody, before i begin i just wanna say that i have really found alot of great posts on here that have been helpful forme , theres definitely alot of brilliant people here!.

i am a born in jw(24 years old) ive been baptized for 7 years and was a ministerial servant for 4 years(i am no longer one).

recently me and my parents have have woken up to ttatt(about 2 months ago).

My advice is for you both the part ways for a year. You live your life and let her lead hers as a JW. Try making friends with people who aren't Witnesses. Then after a year apart, have a discussion with her about the year you spent apart. I think then you will both know the right thing to do. Just don't make any permanent decisions right now.

Change of mindset.

by thedog1 in

jw
friends

i have been a witness for a long time and still serve as an elder.

there have been a lot of changes to deal with in the last six months or so since i stumbled on this site due to questions i had about all the recent changes in understanding published in the wt.

many posters here talk about a cult personality and a real personality.

NAVYTOWN

I'm glad that you are opening your mind to new information and expanded perspectives. Sounds like you are now seeing the Watchtower for what it really is.....a very closed-minded cult like belief system. And very authoritarian as well.

Anthony Morris III's video is endorsed by a two year old.

by LogCon in

how sad is it that one of the only eight links, on earth, to the creator of the universe thinks an endorsement by one and two year olds is a sign that jehovah has blessed the sparlock video?.

exerpts from anthony morris explaining the new sparlock animated video as downloaded to youtube by cedars.

] and as it would end shed gesture,..again.

Same sex marriage legalised in the UK at midnight tonight!!!

by DuvanMuvan in

title pretty much explains it all.

lots of people are getting married at midnight tonight.. what do you guys think?

maybe if anyone gets called on by a jw this weekend you can ask them what they think about it.. im just glad because it shows that religion doesn't define our conscience, that basic human decency can prevail over time and hopefully, these types of gradual but big changes will be present in the wts too in the future .

If all males became celibate Catholic priests, and all females became celibate Catholic nuns, the human race would die out in about 100 years. So we'd better put a stop to Catholics!!! See, isn't that an absurd statement? Likewise, "everyone' isn't going to become gay. The human race isn't going to die out.

the circuit assembly

by thedog1 in

i am off to the circuit assembly tomorrow.

not really looking forward to it as it is the first one i will go to after finding out many things on this forum.

since the last assembly i have read coc, in search of christian freedom, and some of the gentile times reconsidered.

NAVYTOWN

Another fun activity would be to count the times the speakers refer to gay people in a negative way. 'Tight pants', remember??

Joining a Church and advice from co-workers!!!!!!!!!!

by Jon Preston in

so im obviously out mentally....i havent da-ed but i cant care less!

but.....my co workers are encouraging me to find and join a church.

this person is particularly "wisdomonian" meaning she seems to solve and assist many an ailing indicidual in my field.

Try going to a Unitarian church and see if you like it. They are totally non-dogmatic and accept all people no matter what their religious views are...or lack thereof. You will hear many interesting talks on a wide variety of subjects. Nobody will pressure you to 'believe' in a certain way.
