Are MOST JW's lacking Moral Fibre ?
by Phizzy ini find that whether born in or converts, most jw's give their own conscience over to the gb (and writing dept) to dictate how they will react to any moral question.. they simply lack a conscience of their own.. this is not their fault, we should not look down on them for this, their conscience, their natural feeling of what is right and wrong has been:.
stolen from them !.
we all know how the cult does this to them, it did it to us, i really am almost in tears when i think that had either of my darling children needed a blood transfusion i would have resisted, believing what i have been taught all my life, that their eternal life was more important than their life now.. how can we persuade jw's to take back their conscience ?.

Wife says "John 17:3 is just like Christendom's translations!"
by leaving_quietly inshe downloaded the jw library app which has the parallel versions of a verse, and upon looking at john 17:3, she said the above to me.
i wonder if this will start causing chinks in the armor for many jws, especially when they look up john 14:14 or rev.
5:10. the months ahead should be interesting..

The relationship between the Father and Son. What's your opinion?
by DATA-DOG ini am curious about this.
ever since i realized that there is no proof that jesus=michael the archangel, i wondered about who jesus was.

Lurkers and Apologists, can you please explain.....
by DATA-DOG in..from the scriptures why.... 1) material wealth is a sign of jehovah's blessing in our modern day.. 2) why jehovah blesses the growth of chicken populations, but allows active jehovah's witnesses to die in field service, or on the way to conventions, and on the way to celebrate the memorial?
3) why jesus is not your mediator?
bibles and a concordance only.

Quote boxes are gone
