In the area I grew up it was up to each person how they felt, we went to funerals and weddings in churches and my oldman was a elder.

Curiousity about current JW Views on going into churches
by Brymichmom ini've been following a thread on another forum where jw's are insisting that it is ok for them to go inside churches for weddings, funerals, etc.
they say it's quite ok to go inside any church just as long as they don't participate in the service by singing, praying, kneeling...etc...some of them say that they have seen "guest speakers" in churches who came as watchtower representatives.
when did this ever change?

The Dangers Of The Internet In The Watchtower's Hands
by minimus inthere's every reason to believe the watchtower watches this place and similar ones around the globe.
they tell witnesses the internet is evil but they watch what goes on here.

I'm so excited! Got the proof for my book cover today!
by SanFranciscoJim inwell, it's been a long time coming, but my publisher just sent me the proof for the cover of my sci-fi novel today, and it looks fantastic!
i wrote back and told them it was well worth the wait.. as soon as they release the book, i'll make a shameless announcement so you can all rush out and buy a copy.
(unless, of course, you want me to come to your town for a book-signing!

dinosaurs(sp?)
by datsdethspicable inwhat is the belief of jdubs about dinosaurs now?
my daughter came home the other night from her grandma(jw) saying that she wouldn't let her watch a show about dinosaurs on discovery channel because what they were showing is not true.
dinosaurs were not meat eaters.

I remember in the 60's and 70's the green bibles had dinosaurs on the inside front and rear cover.

Questions..falling in love with a JW...
by twizzle ini'd like the answer to the "boy meets worldly girl" question as well.
i was going to reply to the previous post but realized when i got to the end of my rant that other topics worth considering are mentioned in my message:
as a "worldly girl" (well, i'm 29) i've spent the last few days reading all i can about "the society" and trying to figure out what the hell has gone on in my life for the past few months.

Run away as fast as you can, the pain of losing him will be nothing to the pain you will experiance being a JW.

women are supposed to be subservient and in subjection to males.

unbuttoning the watchman
by czarofmischief inin my current campaign against "e-watchman" i am going to copy tactics i learned from my favorite watchtower studies - posted weekly by blondie.
my urge to do this is caused by what i view as a real danger to those who are escaping the intense mind control of the borg.
e-watchman uses guilt and condemnatory statements in a big way, which could strike those who are feeling guilty about leaving the watchtower anyway.

I agree e-watchman needs to be unmasked.
