Have a listen...
by Tez inif you like cold play/oasis style music listen to my son's stuff on myspace.com/markwilks its not everyone's taste but i am very proud of him.
he writes his own lyrics and i can see how his upbringing as a jw has influenced some of his songs.

by booker-t ini have tried talking to my "devout" jw mom until i am blue in the face and she just won't budge.
but now i am really worried to death for her.

Question re Mary.
by Tez inwell it started with one and sort of developed from there.. firstly, mary was a virgin when she miraculously conceived jesus, so does that mean then that he was illegetimate, and if so then why did jehovah not simply allow her to marry joseph, send an angel to joseph to advise him to abstain from sexual intercourse until after the birth of jesus?
after all joseph was the only one who could testify at that time that mary was a virgin, he could have easily have done that even if they had been married.
the fact that she was a virgin would not have been obvious until the birth when it could be proved that her hymen was intact.

Name the good things that Jw's have or believe....
by AK - Jeff inwe always seem to get focused on the bad - and there is plenty of it for sure - and anyone who follows my posts knows i am no wt apologist by any stretch.
but focusing on the postive is a good thing in the 'moving on' process i think too.
what do you think jw's had right?.
