  NO NO NO NO NO

  Run, run, as fast as you can... it is no good.

  My family tried it... sold NOTHING - the stuff is CRAP. You could get it at the dollar store and resell it and make a whole lot more. No one will buy it for what they want to charge - been there, done that.

  Just my two cents!

  Okay, so are all babies/children destroyed at Armageddon?

  by somebodylovesme in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  my inactive jw hubby said he thought that babies/children too young to choose their beliefs would be brought back after armageddon in the jw belief system.

  i have read the opposite on this board.

  my husband hasn't been to a meeting in quite awhile and i don't think he paid too much attention when he was there ... lol ... so i thought i'd ask.

  Thanks, all. That is a devastating doctrine and is just one more reason why I could never be a Witness. As if I needed another reason, lol.

  Yes! I won't need my guts when I'm gone. lol. I would think some parts stay pretty usable - and like a previous poster said, the doctors can decide.

  I like the idea of donating one's body to science -- is that something your family takes care of when you die, or is there "pre-registration"? (man, sounds like college scheduling...)

  too tired here!

  Congrats on the future newcomer to your family. My cousin is doing work in Burundi right now - yikes, not a place I'd want to be! What are things like in Togo?

  Take care,

  Anointed in JW's midst?

  by Noumenon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in your time with jw's did you meet any of the 'anointed' ?.

  i have met a number over the years, and they all seemed very normal, intelligent, balanced, loving people.

  i've met a few obviously 'bogus' ones too.. my question is (atheists, agnostics, and god/bible basher please ignore and move on to another thread): what if there are genuinely anointed christians in jw's midst?

  I have a question.

  If someone is annointed and then gets disfellowshipped or disassociates, does their spot among the 144,000 open up? Does someone else sudden become annointed, is it up for rent, or is closed for business?
