The no voting/no political doctrine is very flawed!
by EndofMysteries inyou all know the doctrine, it's satan's system, can't participate, voting means putting faith in man instead of god, etc.
if so, if god put them in place, then he put faith in them to handle things to an extent and so if you happen to live in a country where people vote on how that government does things, should they not be voting?
now here is a real contradiction...... as the bible says, it's impossible to get outside of the world.

Thought only JWs were doing the preaching work world wide?
by ducatijoe inas one of jehovah's witnesses for over 40 years, i was always taught that we were the only ones who went door to door, preached world wide, built our own buildings and so on.. however in the past year living in the south, not 1 jw has knocked on my door.
yet 4 various people from local churches have.. tonight i meet a young man who is preaching with a group in china (baptist) a block away i watched a congregation build their own church.. i could go on all night with the thing i have found to be un true with the org.. glad i'm out.

Should I stay or should I go?
by olongapo joe inhello all, i love reading all of your experiences, and trials and tribulations ( isn't that very jw'ish)?
while most of my life experiences have almost nothing to do with jw's, as i was never baptized and never believed( in the bible) past the 5th grade, it makes me feel good to contribute a post or two here, i tend to go off on subjects that are probably not very jermaine to the main subject of this site.
i do really enjoy all of your comments and the time and effort simon and the other moderators spend to make this a truly inspiring site.

Life elsewhere
by HowTheBibleWasCreated ini of course grew up with star wars in ther 80s and the 3 star treks runing at once in the 90s' so shows depicting aliens never bothered me.. however in 95 i read 'hyperspace' by micheo kuku.
my dad picked it up and scanned it saying: "i see no reason jehovah didn't create 2 dimentional creatures we cant see.
my dad like alot of the book.
