Captain B can it not be arranged after all it would be for a very good[ possibly life changing ] cause, also the fact that prearranged questions could have a better effect?

The JW cart/booth nonsense
by Gypsy Sam inhttp://www.christianpost.com/news/battle-of-beliefs-baptist-evangelist-nation-of-islam-muslim-and-jehovah-witnesses-vie-for-souls-at-new-yorks-subway-stations-112512/.
will this wake any jw's up to how they have more in common with other sects than they believe?.

Interestingly a week or so before the xmas hols i was speaking to a witness at one of these cart stances , surprisingly during our conversation he said ' i don't believe we [the witnesses]have 100% the truth that kind of stopped me in my tracks, so i said well i think you have a good attitude there, its always good to be able to question what is deemed to be the truth, yes of course he replied. So hopefully he will learn TTATT . I may go back and have another discussion if they appear in the same spot again.

Point scoring from people of the same ilk; ie god, jesus,salvation. Whats the point? we print more than you, we preach more than you, we help people more than you. If they need some invisible entity as their reason for doing this where is their humanity!

Is this really a place for Jehovah's Witnesses/Friends
by jeff spreng ini ask this because i was considering rejoining and the stories i have read only remind me of what was done to me.
is there any clean place to go where good people and fellowship can be had.
it sounds like maybe the people here should get together and start there own thing, like the reorganized latter day saints.

Sorry i don't quite understand,what are you considering rejoining? If its the JWs why did you leave in the first place?. If not, do you feel you have to be a part of some organization for some reason?

Status quo? Or tell ttatt?
by ILoveTTATT insupposing i can pull off moving to the other city without the elders successfully finding me and forcing me to go to a jc or something.... should i ever tell my mom ttatt?
or should i let sleeping dogs lie?
it is extremely unlikely that dad will tell her ttatt... he prefers, 99% of the time, to not say anything rather than fight.

Most ex jw's want to tell their family members.TTATT because of selfish reasons,why? IMO its because their life, being, self, was not their own choosing. their parents brought them into this world [hopefully] to have a good and fulfilled life I.E. this life whereas, when your family choose to live the jw life they jeopardize their childrens happiness because they [the parent or parents] are always living in hope and as the old saying goes; people who live in hope never live in the present.I would always by way of normal conversation point out TTATT but stick to one subject at a time. Good luck. Oh bye the way selfishness on our parts is not always a bad thing, its sometimes essential for our wellbeing.

Anyone Can be baptised - Can't they?
by tim hooper indoes a new convert have to be approved for baptism by the elders or someone similar i wonder?.
years ago, at a circuit assembly, i came across a young man whose jw father had thrown him out of the family home because of his abusiveness.
he'd got nowhere to go so he travelled south and finished up attending our local assembly.

I love how the guy in the commentary says; she just HAD! to get in .He didn't consider that she may have taken that action to show what a mockery the whole thing is to common sense!.

Best "wake-up-call"-arguments?!
by Mr Fool inhi everyone .
it was not my intention to write here anymore, but i found things that caught my interest, things that i feel to share in the hope of someone finds it interesting.. the core is that the wt surprisingly admits that what "we" believe in, is after all, only opinions (awake 2000 june 22 page9-11 "do not be a victim of propaganda).. anyone with a scan of thiese pages would make my day ;-) the questions/arguments below are built around this:.
feel free to find better arguments ;-).

Christians please answer something for me
by confusedandalone inor should i say some things.... reading over another thread and a number of other threads i have to ask, why are we making excuses for jesus / god.. how can you fathom and all powerful god who created the universe and all the laws that govern it was not capable of:.
1. making sure the proper pronunciation of his name is not available.
2. that all his teaching are not preserved in an easy to discern manner so that ther is no confusion.

John mann ?????? Are you for real. Kate wild you seem to be clinging on to your belief in god like a person clings on to disintegrating raft in a stormy ocean . I fear as it totally breaks up you will have difficult decision to make.How close are you to that.Many of us have been at the same crossroads
