Your Username

by RAYZORBLADE in

there are many reasons why we choose a username.

on this forum, aside from some of the more obvious names associated with our avatars, what does your nickname/username mean or refer to?.

some are first names.

Neat post, mine applies to a role I have been in since I was a kid.

Growing up a JW, my father an elder and most of our close friend's father's were elders - I was kind of preve to what was going on, started by default and just carried. So when they spoke with me it would always end with don't tell anyone this, but..thus: KPROSCTS

Growing up I was the one that everyone came to, to talk, mostly my age and younger, and ended with don't tell anyone this, thus: KPROSCTS

As I got older, it just stuck for some reason, I never sought out to be this person, but people who needed to talk somehow found their way over to me and yes ended with can we keep this between us, thus: KPROSCTS

I'm also in management and certian things have to be kept under wraps so to speak, thus: KPROSCTS

KPROSCTS - Keeper of Secrests.

DJ: I asked my mom about this a little while back. One of the rare occasions we speak, about this very question. I was baptized and my brother was not, I was DF'd and my brother just left with me. I asked her why it was ok for her to associate or speak with my brother or others like him and yet it was not ok for her to speak with me? I thought I was pointing out the hypocricy of the - her reply was because we all knew the "faith" I was the only one batized taking and swear an oath to Jehovah and there for I was out the others are in and it is ok for her to associate/speak with them, yes somewhat limited. Also, that they would be waiting for those like my brother on the otherside and she truely believes that she will not see me there? Oh, well.

What do you believe happens after death?

by JH in

jw

.

do you believe that the dead are really dead, unconscious, without life, like the watchtower taught us, or do you think that they are still alive, but in another world or another form?.

do you believe that you had a previous life before this one?.

I have thought a lot about this topic and to keep it short - I believe.......

Why WT will ALWAYS be around

by JT in

jw
friends

from time to to one will read a post where the question is posed "will wt fall"

and for many who have taken a serious look at "belief systems" the answer for the most part is no and the reason is simple-.

belief systems provide humans with answers to "life's questions":.

Sad but true. I was just having a conversation today about this very topic. I was telling a friend about this site and how I stummbled into it and that it got me so pumped up that I was going to start digging myself, put together nothing but a fact based binder supported with documentation and send it back home. Other than knowing who JW's are he is not fimiliar with the overall belief structure and his reply was "What would happen after reading the material I sent them if they were then in turn to question the leaders regarding this and then let's say the leaders claim what I sent them was falsified documents?" I told him they would most likely believe them! Sad but true.

what's the answer?.

* what's greater than god and worse than the devil?.

* what the poor have and the rich need?.

Good night everyone, I got to go. If I play as bad in the morning as I did tonight I'll be buying a lot of beer on the back 9, considering most are worse than I am that would really suck.
