Why is the GB determined to delete the few enjoyable aspects of being a JW?
by NAVYTOWN init seems the gb is trying to give the jws a more modern, friendly image.
new website, new logo, cartoons for instructing children, literature carts, slimmed-down books and magazines, etc.
yet on the other hand they delete some of the things many jws enjoy most: the book study in private homes, congregation picnics and large get-togethers, private group watchtower study sessions, colorful socks for men, denim dresses for women etc.

JEHOVAH: THE WITNESSES PEST-CONTROL GUY
by NAVYTOWN inthere are approximately six billion human beings in the world who are not, and never will be, jehovah's witnesses.
per watchtower doctrine, jehovah's 'day of judgement ' is coming soon.
so what to do about all those non-jws who are 'enemies' of jehovah???

I AGREE WITH THE JWs: THE 'SOUL' DOESN'T EXIST
by NAVYTOWN ini agree with the witnesses about almost nothing, but i do think they have the right idea when it concerns the 'soul'.
it is my belief that there is no such entity as a 'soul' that resides in a human being.
the idea originated in ancient, pre-scientific eras.

The Witness beliefs remind me of the Nazis and ISIS
by NAVYTOWN inthe nazi regime hated jews, gays, jws and other minorities.
so they solved the 'problem' by exterminating them.
the current isis group hates jews and christians and beheads those it considers 'enemies' and 'infidels'.

A SPECIAL OCCASION.....
by NAVYTOWN ini came across a saying that i especially like: 'don't ever save anything for a special occasion.
every day you are alive is a special occasion.
compare that to the jw mindset that says this world is a terrible place and that jws will only be truly happy 'someday' when they get to 'paradise'.

MY CONCLUSION IS: 'GOD' DOESN'T EXIST
by NAVYTOWN ini have come to the conclusion that there is no god.
period!!!
if there was a loving, righteous, all-knowing, all powerful god up there somewhere, where is he and what good is he???

An Elder said: 'They're in prison for a reason'
by NAVYTOWN inseveral years ago, i was studying the bible (jw literature) with an ms from the local congregation.
i happened to mention that i had several pen pals who were incarcerated in various prisons.
no matter what crimes they committed, i said i saw them as fellow human being who deserved to have a friend to write to.

ANOTHER CHURCH THAT EVOLVED INTO A CULT
by NAVYTOWN inthere are various stories in the news today about the head pastor, mark driscoll, of the mars hill megachurch in seattle resigning after much extended controversy.
from what i read, his church was in many ways similar to the jws.
shunning.

JW.ORG REPORTS THE WATCHTOWER RESPONSE TO EBOLA
by NAVYTOWN ini just checked the jw.org website and noticed an article about the jw response to ebola.
as i suspected, the entire focus was on alerting and educating jw members about ebola.just like in other disaster situations, the jw organization almost exclusively assists it's own members, ignoring the general public.
it seems their main concern is keeping their members healthy so they can continue to spread the jw message door to door!!!
