Evil friends & relatives......
by lavendar inwhen you were a jw......did you really & truly believe all your non-jw relatives, friends & acquaintances were evil and under satan's influence.....as you were taught by the wts?
did you buy that ridicules teaching....or did you deep down realize it was bunk?.

What is your opinion?
by lavendar indo you think a witness is more apt to leave the wts because:.
1) ....of indisputable proof of the wts's falsehoods.. or.
2) .....something that personally happened to them that caused a disenchantment w/ the organization.. thanks for you input!.

If Hillary becomes president.......
by lavendar ini heard this question the other day, and it really started me thinking...... if hillary wins the election, how are all these arab nations and presidents going to relate to a woman president??
i mean women, in general, are looked down upon and have no authority in the arab world.
won't having a woman president put us in a dangerous position??

Crosses, Flags and JWs....
by lavendar inmy husband and i (we are not jws) were at dinner the other night, and we were talking about jws and how flags and crosses are reviled by them.
well, my husband i guess was feeling silly and thought it would be fun to walk into a kingdom hall on sunday, with him wearing a t-shirt w/ a big american flag on the front......and i would wear a large cross around my neck.
heh heh.

A question for lurking Witnesses.....
by lavendar inif the wts is based on the bible (as they claim), then why can't a person come into "the truth" just by reading the bible?
also, if the wts really does have "the truth", then why does it keep changing it?
i didn't think truth could change!

Isn't it interesting.....
by lavendar in.....that when a worldly person wants to join the wts, but is living a sinful life.....the witnesses go out of their way to lovingly help him out of his life of sin.
but, when a jw (one of their own) commits a sin against jehovah...that person is disfellowshipped.
case closed.....no love, no care,....just cast out.
