  Was God in this disaster?

  by bikerchic in

  2. friends

  i got this in my email and thought i would pass it along.

  i know many of us are struggling with so many issues involving god and the bad things that happen.

  for me this recent tsunami disaster was over the top, i'm beyond understanding and i'm not going to say this article helped me understand any better but it did show me that x-jw's aren't the only ones who struggle with such questions.

  Benny Hinn - DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?

  by William Penwell in

  2. scandals

  just watched a documentary about benny hinn ministry, i can't believe anyone is that gullible to believe this crap.

  not only is he a fraud but he is also a crook, taking money from poor susceptible people.

  he also sure likes to live the high life to.

  What is your experience as to buying Crisis of Conscience?

  by Goldminer in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  .

  i've read a few very interesting stories about people's experiences when they decided to purchase coc.i'd like to share mine and read yours also.. in 1999,not long after we purchased our first computer i started reading material about jw's.before long,i got really interested in the ray franz story because even up here in northern ontario,i had heard about the apostasy of 1980.in the fall of '99 my wife decide to take a college course(bucking the jw trend),and she would stay at her sister's place during the week.one day i called a christian book store to see if they could get me this book.i was very nervous,changed my name and i wouldn't give them my phone number.i told them i'd call back in a few weeks to make sure they had it before i went in to pick it up.. when the day came,i picked up my courage by two hands and took off for my 40 mile drive to get my book.the book store is located in a small shopping mall,which had me really nervous that another jw might see me going in or out of the store.i walked in the mall looking around,making sure there was nobody in sight that i knew.when i walked in the store,i had cash ready in my hands,walked up to the counter,gave my fake name and the book i was purchasing.now i just had to walk and make it to the car and i was home free.. i know buying a book isn't that hard,i do it all the time,but at that time the implicationsof having this book in my possesion was tremendous.. anyways,it's been 5 1/2 years and still nobody here knows.the book has really opened my eyes and mind to the realities of the wts.i would definitely recommend this book to everyone here who has yet to read it.it's worth the effort to acquire it and will take away your fear of the watchdollar.

  For heavens sake, just go to a book store and order it, and quit being so cult controled please.

  Why in the devil must you be so scared, that in and of its self should tell you to get out when a simple religion has that kind of power over you that can't go to a store and eather read a book there or order it. Geez.

  Homeschooling?

  by mkr32208 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is a pet peeve of mine!

  how in the heck can the school board justify turning the education of anyone over to some jacka$$ that dropped out of school to pioneer and makes their living cleaning toilets!

  how can any parent that truely loves their kid not take a good long look at themselves and say "i am not the best teacher for this child.

  I attended American School located in chicago ILL, I did not have ONE test to prove I was smart enough I had MANY, and passed them all. I finished my two years I needed in eight months, I did it because first of all I paid for it not my parents, second I wanted to prove to myself and to others that I was not a loser. You cannot finish just because mom and dad say so!!!!!!!

  What's next for the Watchtower in 2005?

  by truthseeker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after all the events of 2004 regarding the botchtower, what do you think will happen next year?.

  i can think of a few events.. first of all, 70 years will have passed since rutherflawed took on the name "jehovah's witnesses" - a gross misapplication of that scripture in isaiah.. all the new man presses will be operational - already, the wt have increased their watchtower circulation.. "godly obedience" district convention next summer - we all know what that will be about; and don't forget the layman's km article on how to book a hotel, and not just any hotel at that either.. a new book to replace "organised to accomplish our ministry".

  bro barr of the governing body turns 100 (i think this is correct).
