  Revelation Prophecy Fulfillments According to WTS.......How Long Has it Been?

  by drewcoul in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i recently listened to an old fred franz talk that i found online that i remember attending when i was 11 in 1983 in indianapolis.

  since i remembered that i didn't follow what he was saying back then, i wanted to listen to it and see if i could understand it now.

  (the only difference is he still doesn't make much sense, but now i know it wasn't just because i was too young to understand at the time.).

  ABSOLUTE PROOF THAT DINOSAURS AREN'T MILLIONS OF YEARS OLD!

  by Mary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  yesterday, i went out for lunch with my parents when my mother made mention of something she had read in the newspaper about some new discovery of species that went extinct millions of years ago.

  she asked my father what method is used to determine the age of something, because of course, this flies directly in face of the biblical account of life on this planet being only a few thousand years old.. anyway, my father related a story that some brother he ran into recently at the assembly told him.

  this [unnamed] brother related a story told to him by another [unnamed] elder who knew an [unnamed] circuit serpent who was "really chummy with one of the [unnamed] executives at the royal ontario museum".

  this video traces our migration out of africa and explains, through dna evidence, how humans colonized the world.

  it is part of the made easy series of videos that show the evidence of our origins, from the big bang onwards.

  If Your Husband (wife) is Still In - -

  by Had To Go in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do you vacillate between caring that he/she is still entrapped in this cult and wanting to show them everything you have learned since your awakening and not wanting to rock the boat and therefore just keeping all this knowledge to yourself?

  i wonder if it is normal to go back and forth like i do.

  one day i want to tell my husband something i may have read here or on another forum and maybe, just maybe i will pique his interest.

  What does a demon or an evil spirit look like?

  by foolsparadise in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  no they havent..because they dont exsist.

  who needs demons to do bad things on the earth when we have people doing horrible things to each other since the beginning of time.

  demons are just an easy way to pass of the blame...pretty easy to do since no one has ever seen one.. its like telling people there are evil invisible tooth faries lurking around every corner.

  Considered rebellious because I choose to think for myself

  by LovelyEunie in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hi all, this is my first post.

  but i was one of those kids that was born into the whole jw thing, and like a good little witness kid i did everything i was supposed to do to please my parents (mainly my mom my dad's an unbeliever).

  my mom was very strict with me when it came to everything they taught, no holiday parttys at school, no sports, no worldy friends, i was only supposed to associate with other jw kids (my mom is one of those extremist jws, she says she doesn't judge, but she's a perfect example of one one of those sisters with the holier than thou attitude).

  3/15 WT " Do Not Deceive Yourself "- WT's Excuses for No Armageddon

  by flipper in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  with the new " overlap generation " theory that the wt society is pushing onto rank and file jehovah's witnesses since last year this article i found really heavy hitting in the jw version of the wt.

  the wt society is leaking oil in that confidence is low among jw's in not really buying into the " generation overlap " theory as many younger jw's are exiting the organization.

  so what better way to try reeling members back in by giving them an article entitled " do not deceive yourself with false reasoning " !
