On the move to real Kingdom truths!!
by trustsinJah inmy fellow brothers and sisters!.
i feel compelled out of gratitude and love to write this little tale, not because i have lost my faith, but because i realize i am not alone, and as heb 10: 24, 25 states: and let us consider one another to incite to love and fine works, 25 not forsaking the gathering of ourselves together, as some have the custom, but encouraging one another, and all the more so as you behold the day drawing near.. i have never felt nor would i ever think that that scripture applied solely to meeting atendance.
the form of true christian love displayed by many here on this board affirms my faith in jehovah and lets me know i am not alone!.

Are there any pro jehovah witness boards on the net left?
by unbeliever ini remember the good old days when jwzone, greatcrowd, purelanguagenetwork, sister soup, and witnessworld were around.
there were quite a few of us that managed to gain membership to those boards and tried to "witness" and would copy/paste over here..

What's the point of all those presents?
by penny2 inyes, i know i was brought up as a jw so my view is probably distorted.
but why as an adult, would you want to receive gifts that you neither need nor want from people who cant really afford to give them?.
i love xmas from the point of view of spending a whole day eating, talking and a little drinking with loved ones.

Why do Ex-JWs start celebrating pagan Christmas?
by DubR inhiya guys and gals.
im not trying to be self-righteous but i want to understand the thought process of someone who knows the origins of christmas, but starts celebrating it (putting up christmas tree, exchanging wrapped gifts; repeating merry christmas to everyone they see in the month of december)??
it seems very silly to me (imo) after knowing how and why christmas was created (to cater to pagans sun worship and convert to christianity)!!

Mom flies into red rage because I was "attacking" the JWs...
by Kudra inbackground to the conversation:.
i called my parents excited to be having them come out for thanksgiving break.
in the conversation my dad (not a jw) brought up that michael jackson's glove just sold for $300,000 while a recently found first edition copy of darwin's on the origin of species sold for only $100,000.
