what is your view?
is the michael in the bible jesus or someone else?
i've heard and read much debate on this important question, but i would appreciate your views!
even many witnesses know jesus is not michael...
when i show my mother scriptures that specifically say that jesus is NOT an angel, she says, "well the society says, 'evidently jesus is michael the archangel', because there is evidence but not as much solid evidence as they need to say FOR SURE."

i was always scared of leaving the witnoids, b/c i thought i would become what they said you become when you leave... sad, lonely, drug addicted, demonized, prostitute...whatever..... but here i am...a 20 year old w/ a high school education only...and i'm sitting on the 8th floor in my own office w/ a picturesque (sp?
) view of east memphis.
i have reached a higher point in my life than most witnesses can only dream of.
ENJOY THE PLEASURES OF TODAY, FOR IF ARMAGEDDON COMES TOMORROW, U ARE TO DIE.
that's how 98% of witnesses feel about your so-called success. so even if they could see you now, they'd pity your destruction-destined self

p.s. yes it makes us all sick
mum just emailed me this.
thought it was funny, needed to share.. .
jeff foxworthy on jw's .
if you think 1914 is the date that jesus died and went to heaven, you might be a young JW
if you think "placing" means anything other than getting first, second, or third in a race, you might be a JW
if you work as a night-shift janitor and still have the power to boss upwards of 200 people around, you might be an elder JW
if have never had an orgasm, you might be a married JW woman
if you have the same 8 scriptures memorized as 6 million other people and consider that as being well-versed in the bible, you might be a JW
if you have no idea what the big deal was about 1975, then you might be a JW
if the power goes out in your home and you're afraid to light a candle because it's your birthday, then you might be a JW
ya think i'm kiddin ye bastards?.
i wonder if the governing body actually hear the voices of the resurrected annointed ones.
does the heavenly bride of christ whisper, or talk normal, or do they do it by "silent suggestion" in which they move them to a conclusion or answer so they'll all agree.. what about when they have to vote on things cuz they can't agree?.
wow! does that officially make GB members spirit mediums???
keep on the watch!
this warning: "keep on the watch, therefore, because you do not know on what day.
true christians--only jws.
this was one of the most thorough "comments you will not hear..." that i have ever read. i liked how in-depth you got about every little detail... you must have put a lot of work into this weeks (and every week)...
THANKS A LOT BLONDIE!

Read the paragraph under "Introducing Moral Corruption" What a hoot!! "I was in a chat room with a group of people who I thought were all Jehoober Witlessess" "Before long, it was evident that they were really apostates"
hahahaha oh man that made me LOL, because of how many times it happens here... and even how many times "opposers" come here thinking that this is a pro-JW site and then we have to tell them, "HEY MAN, WE'RE ON THE SAME PAGE AS YOU!"
bethel
What I want to know is....If this is an article about the "dangers" of chat rooms, why is there a picture of "wordly people" smoking and drinking and doing drugs?? Is this supposed to imply that chat rooms are as sinful as these things?
i think it's to imply that if you are talking in chat rooms, you might be tempted to smoke, drink, "hang out", or even have anti-aryan bi-racial intercourse. one thing leads to another, so one thing is as bad as the other, i suppose

hey all!
i came upon this board as i was trying to find some social doctrine answers regarding jehovah's witnesses.
i've been looking over this board and feel i've found a new home.
your story invoked real emotion in me... i pictured myself in your exact situation and i cannot imagine what i would do to solve the issue... i really feel for you and hope you can reel him out of it before it's too late...
bethel
P.S. your story was not too long at all...
