help! husband going to convention
by leftchica inhi friends!.
so my story is this: i married a jw who was inactive and once we got married he got back into "the truth" and i started to "study" with people in his congregation.
i had many red flags and was hesitant to knocking on doors, but after a year of "what does the bible teach" being studied with a pioneer and having been pressured to go to meetings, i too, became a jw.

Are you an "apostate"?
by cedars ini'm quite new to this site, and i've noticed that many of you are more than happy to call yourselves "apostates", even though many of you evidently believe in the bible and in jesus as saviour, etc.. i'm aware that the society brands anyone who disagrees with them as being an "apostate", but just because they choose to do this, does this mean we should be comfortable with being so branded?
should we "bend over" and take it?.
here is what the insight book says on apostasy:.

Zombie computer games
by watersprout inso carrot has borrowed some games for his wii from a bloke at work, and one of the games is called ''dead rising''.
from what i can see you have to kill all the zombies in a shopping centre.... well carrot has got hold of a chainsaw and is slaughtering all the zombies... he is laughing uncontrollably and keeps saying that it's the best game ever!.
is it me or is this something men should have grown out of when they left puberty??.

JWs are obsessed with persecution
by life is to short inover the weekend i was around a group of jw's.
i have not been in such a setting for along time so it was sort of surreal.. so this one older jw woman started to talk about her neighbors and their little girls and how much she liked them.
she said they were a nice family, etc, that they watch each other homes when they go away on vacation, etc.

What benefit is all the power of people's lives to the Governing Body?
by TimothyT inif the 7 million jw's mindlessly follow the governing body (which the majority do), of what benefit is it to the governing body?
that power over people's lives is nothing to boast about in my books.
i conclude that the only reason they so desire this power is because it brings money, authority and security to them.
