Who is Jehovah in the view of orthodox theology?
by Check_Your_Premises ini always figured jehovah was the father, jesus was the son, and we don't know what to call the holy spirit.
is this the orthodox view?.
but if god is triune in nature and all that, is jehovah the name for all 3 dudes lumped together, or is it just the name for the father?.

I want a Bible
by PrimateDave ini want a bible that hasn't been written by or for 'apologists'.
i want a bible written in english that correctly translates 'yhwh' as 'yahve' or 'yahweh' and 'elohim' as 'gods' instead of 'god'.
a recent bit of study has shown that many modern english bibles commit pious fraud by translating words like 'asherah'(idol used in sex worship by the patriarchs) as 'grove' or 'tree' in order to cover up the true roots of ancient 'hebrew' worship.

Were you allowed to take sex education in school, when raised a JW?
by free2beme inwhen i was in my freshman year, they had us take a half semester of sex education and another one was drivers education.
the sex education class taught good stuff for a young teen to know, especially if they were in families who were kind of lax about teaching what needed to be know.
as an example, one girl in our class actually asked if you could get pregnant the first time and another asked if the pulling out method was as good as a condom.
