  the current “news” on jw.borg.

  https://www.jw.org/en/news/legal/.

  look closely at he picture of “russian” police breaking in to what appears to be a utility shed.. first, you’d have to be a complete moron to believe anything you see.. the “police” are shown using a garden pic to open a door.

  Why can JW's attend funerals or weddings in a church?

  by QuestioningEverything in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what is the reasoning/policy behind the practice that a jw can't attend an event such as funeral or wedding in another church?

  i know of someone that didn't attend her older sisters funeral because it was held in a baptist church.

  she waited outside until the service was over and then went to the family dinner afterwards.

  Do You Know Of Anyone Who Left JWs And Then Decided To Return?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  quite a few years ago there was a poster here that left the religion because he knew it was simply not true.

  however, he returned to jws because he wanted to be with his family.

  i don’t know how he is doing but gumby was his name.

  the link bellow is sort of ok. i could not find a decent article in english language about this, but russian media is exploding.

  2 days ago a teenager killed 19 people and injured dozens and committed suicide.

  he was raised in a jw family.

  Muslims and the Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Tameria2001 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  first i want to say that i don't know very much about the muslims, and what i am going to say is not attacking anyone, but instead, it was something that was said to me by a muslim man a few years back.. back in 2004 my husband and i found ourselves in a homeless situation.

  his job had ended because the plant that he was working at, had shut down, and was sent off to china.

  at the time our two sons were still very young, so we ended up staying at a couple of different homeless shelters until my husband could find another job, which took a total of three months before he found a new job, in a new state.

  Realization of something very close to a supernatural force but scientific

  by Bad_Wolf in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after finding patterns in lottery numbers and thinking about if random truly exists, i also flipped a coin for awhile.

  i was counted how many times i would get heads and tails and if they would equal out in the end.

  if heads slowly was getting ahead too much, i would suddenly get a bunch of tails in a row to almost equal it out.
