Answer from the "Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses"
by Lilycurly insome of you might remember my situation....i have daed myself a while ago, and my father is the only jw in the family.
since i am very close to him and the family, he has read everything related to shunning, he even asked elders and even them are not sure.
so he wrote a big long letter to bethel to have an answer.

Aprocrypha and JWs
by Lilycurly ini made a search but didn't come up with anything specific about what are the views of jws concerning the apocryphal bible books.. from what i know, some man a long time ago (catholic or pagan, but certainly not a jehovah's witness) decided wich books were inspired and wich to dump, and then proceeded to assemble the bible as we know it today.. now i don't want to start a fight about wether or not they would be inspired....but how do the jws explain that they accept this choice made by this particular man (or group??
) do they admit tha the man was inspired?
if they do, then they'd have to admit that god gives his blessing to other religions, and if not, they are missing some books and serious information..... what would my father tell me, if i asked him?

(page 6) with the nice subject of harmageddon.. well, one paragraph is about "how can a loving god make war?

Is that a Christmas Song?
by Lilycurly ini came home this morning and my mother and little brother started to hum a tune and asked me if it was a christmas song...turns out it was "carol of the bells".
and my jw father had been whistling it the night before after he heard it on a commercial.
when my mother asked him, isn't that a christmas song?

Want to publish article in journal...
by Lilycurly ini was doing my chores today and started thinking about what i could write about being an ex-jw id i wrote for a journal....and it got me thinking...do local news-papers generaly allow random people to write for them?
and of so, would they allow something about a religious groupe?
anyway, i started to write furiously when i finished vacuuming!

When elders disagree....
by Lilycurly inhere's the situation.... my da has been finally announced last thursday.
now, the thing is, my father asked the elders if it was still okay for him to talk to me.. elder1 says :no, she is daed, is not living with her family anymore, you can't talk or associate with her in any way.

i never knew that!lol they compare it to actual war and say it can make one competitive and aggresive.
