  Publishers should charge the WTS for gas money

  by Nosferatu in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  let's face it, the publishers get ripped off.

  they make up for the payment of magazines when the householder fails to donate anything.

  they spend their time and gas money going door to door, not to mention wear and tear on their cars.. the publishers should quit paying for the householder's lack of donation, and begin deducting gas expenses from donation money.

  Do JWs believe all wordly people die at armageddon?

  by XQsThaiPoes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was wondering a few things.

  i am trying to avoid the complexe question fallacy so excuse me if this is worded strangely instead of just saying "do jws believe all wordly people die at armageddon?"..

  1) did the watchtower change its teaching on the great tribulation and armageddon enought for you to call it a major change?.

  stuck in!

  by red so deep in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  well, this is my first post here, and i'm kind of doing it in secret, cause i know if my parents knew of my "poisoning myself with apostates" they would not be happy at all.

  anyways, my story is; i'm 17, i've been brought up "in the truth" my whole life, and now i'm starting to question the wt and christianity in general, and i have nobody to talk to about it.

  i feel awkward about talking to my witness friends about it, cause i worry that if i speak out against the organazition and the wrong people (i.e; young ones around here that would never think of questioning the society) hear about it, it might result in my punishment (reproof or dfing).

  by Elsewhere in

  2. friends

  i just "obtained" a copy of doom 3 to see what all the fuss is about.. lets see here:.

  $60.00 to but a copy (if you want to do it the legit way).

  now, if you want a good gaming experience you will need to upgrade to a 256 mb video card: $400.00 - $500.00.

  How many brought to the JWs by the door to door work?

  by undercover in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  minimus stated in another thread that 99% of newly baptized jws are children/teens of jws.

  another poster said that they knew of only one person baptized in 20 years of door to door work.. let's do an informal, unscientific poll/survey:.

  how many here were brought into the "truth", whether baptized or unbaptized publishers, by means of the door to door work having no prior experience with jws?

  How do you cheer yourself up?

  by Sirona in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  if your jw family upset you, or if you're having "one of those days" (or weeks, or months .

  is there anything that you actively do to counter the negative feelings?.

  i usually try to go into "look after myself" mode and spend some time alone just relaxing or having a good cry .
