no stones please!
by almosthome ini 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.

Are all sins "equal" to the JW's.
by JH in.
if a witness plays lotto, and doesn,t repent, he is disfellowshipped.. if a witness steals, and doesn't repent, he is disfellowshipped.. if a witness fornicates, and doesn't repent, he is disfellowshipped.. does this mean that the jw's consider playing lotto being just as bad as stealing or fornicating or even killing?.
how about you, in what order would you class sins?.

Quitting smoking
by Glofishy ini've smoked for years and i've been smoke free for about a month now.
my doc gave me zanax and wellbutrin to help me with the cravings, and also gave me the green light to use nicotine gum.
it's working well so far, but i was wondering if the org also prohibits the use of nicotine gum?

Graduation is okay?
by Oxnard Hamster inas you all know, jws avoid celebrating all major holidays because they are "worldly" and "worldly" things displease jehovah.
however, i remember some jws talking about celebrating certain kids' high school graduations.
so it's not okay to celebrate christmas, thanksgiving, easter, birthdays, etc, but it is okay to celebrate someone's graduation?

Speaking of Brooklyn...
by Glofishy inif the organization is in financial trouble...to the extent they stopped mailing literature and cut back on publishing the awake magazine...why don't they sell the property they have in new york for a pretty penny, or rent it out and just move the company to a lesser expensive area to do business in...like in the midwest or something?
or is the location in new york all part and parcel to something in the core beliefs that i'm not aware of?
