JW's Are Footstep Followers of Jesus Christ
by Honesty inbecause the watchtower says they are but so far, i haven't seen any tangible evidence from any jehovah's witness i've ever met even when i was a jehovah's witness.
does anyone have solid proof the jw's are doing the things jesus did such as feeding the poor, nursing the sick (baptist, methodist, catholic, presbyterian hospitals are everywhere and are supported in part by donations from christian groups), providing spiritual refreshment to the soul, etc.?.
maybe i'm just not looking in the right places to see any evidence supporting the wtbts's claims that they are christians and following in jesus' footsteps.

I hate feet
by rebel8 inhere in the "arctic" northeast, people are beginning to wear their sandals again.
i hate sandal season.. there are a few people with good hygeine and ok looking feet that can pull off the sandal look.
the rest should not be allowed into public without socks and shoes.. i am sick of seeing callouses, dry skin with foot flakes falling off, dirty feet, even worse--dirty toenails, toenails that have not been trimmed (i do not want to see anything but nails trimmed all the way down), corns, fungus, bunions, deformations, etc.

Use of the word jah?
by carla ini have noticed on ex sites the use of the word jah in reference to jehovah.
is this just a slang used by ex's or do active also use it?
if active members use it, doesn't it seem a bit disrespectful then?

No Solution Required.
by Englishman inmy nearest and dearest told me something a few weeks back.
actually, i think i always knew what she told me, it just helped me clarify things somewhat.
she says that when she tells me about something that has gone wrong with her life, she isn't looking for me to necessarily find a solution.

Examples of JW evasiveness/dishonesty
by BONEZZ inbeing born and bred into the borg i always felt it was the "truth" but i wasn't the one who measured up i was not good enough to be a dub.
but i also had nagging questions that went unanswered by the most learned elders...or at least not answered to my satisfaction.
their "answers" were in fact not really answers but side-steps or attempts to mis-direct my question into an area they could answer.. an example...it always bothered me that we could not examine the contents of what opposers put out.
