  Can you refute these?

  by Mary Phooty in

  1. are jesus and michael the archangel really the same person?.

  one of the most peculiar of the wtss teachings is their assertion that jesus is actually michael the archangel.

  " in acts 10:19-20, this "impersonal force" considers himself to be a person.

  Where's the payoff?

  by AllAlongTheWatchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  excuse me if i'm being cynical, but i've had my own experiences with [b]organized religion, though it was non-jw.

  the group i was affiliated with demanded that full fledged members tithe (10% off the top of your income; pre-taxes), and a donation basket was also circulated at nearly every gathering in addition to tithing.

  even kids were encouraged to participate; they would give them little envelopes to put loose change into and put in the basket.

  Bi-Sexual

  by misguided in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i guess my new-found freedom of personal expression is working its way down to my kids.. i came home from a crazy day at work, ate my dinner, was loading the dishwasher, when my 13-year-old son says, .

  "mom, i have something to tell you - i'm bisexual...i've been that way for a year now.

  i still can't help but have my old jw brain at work, thinking this is not okay - kind of like, i'm an apostate with a bisexual son...what will my family say?!

  i am hoping a little balance is allowed here, or at least the coin's flip side.

  this is my story so far, but i am fairly sure it is going to end up a bit differently than most i have read on your site.

  the brothers couldn't help my husband, he didn't want help.
