Do good works by JWs count for anything?
by greendawn inwe all know that the wts like so many other cults is an exploitative organisation that works with a great depth of deception that's not easy for many to grasp.
but will the works done by jws for this religion count in their favour if they were done in good faith?
at least the ones that didn't directly harm anyone?

Thank god for cheese
by greendawn inone amazing thing is that out of just three kinds of milk the milk of cow, ewe and goat hundreds if not over a thousand different kinds of cheese are made around the world.
yellow or white, hard or soft, mouldy or not mouldy, strong tasting or bland.
cheddar, gruyere, gouda, maasdamer, parmesan, feta, roquefort, stilton, brie and scores more.

The WTS deprogramming
by greendawn indoes anyone have any interesting and helpful details regarding what this deprogramming involves?
we always here one should deprogram but what exactly does it involve what could be some useful tips to facilitate this process?
i was reading recently in the psychological studies of jung about the concept of the shadow the part of our mind that contains all the repressed and rejected material, some of it was rightly repressed (eg the desire to steal from, or otherwise harm innocent people) and some not.

The original Jewish Christian church, what happened to it?
by greendawn inthe christian church began as an entirely jewish enterprise yet today there is no such a thing as a christian jewish church certainly not one that has an uninterrupted line going back to apostolic times.
it is the gentile one that continues to this day.
so isn't that surprising?

Best birthday present
by greendawn inwhat was the best birhday present you ever had?
i know many here only began celebrating birthdays recently or perhaps haven't yet started due to the stupid jw ban on something that is in fact totally innocent and harmless.
for me it was food.

Resurrection soon after armageddon or 1000 years after it?
by greendawn incan anyone explain why the wts claims that faithful dubs will be resurrected soon after armageddon when to the contrary the book of revelation plainly states that the resurrection of anyone other than the saints will occur after 1000 years?
that is 1000 years after the saints begin ruling on earth which will occur at or shortly before armageddon.
let's remember that rightly or wrongly most dubs do not believe that they are in the class of the saints or anointed as they call them.

The power of witches and occultism
by greendawn inmany believe that the power of witches, male or female, to cause a great deal of harm and suffering by invoking the venomous power of the demons is an evident fact.
there are many stories of such activities going on, the casting of spells, enchantments and curses, harming humans in a psychological way through the use of these invisible powers.
some believe these are just fanciful ideas and fairy tales, the atheists have no option after all but to believe this.

Why use the word apostate?
by greendawn inwhy should we define ourselves by what the fds defines us?
our enemies who seek emotional control over us even after we left their destructive cult have invested a lot of effort to demonize us with the word apostate and when we use the term ourselves we do their work for them.
most so called apostates simply thought about things deeply and came up with many questions that the jws instead of answering in a logical manner labelled these inquiring minds as demon inspired apostates doubting the god appointed fds and expelled them from their org.
