It was never established that the JW was an elder. If not then he could honestly say he has no literature that is for him especially. Word games I know but honest. Miketheatheist is in attack mode. When someone asks questions that he knows the answer to and wastes another's time I think they are dishonest. I wouldn't have given him the time of day. He was simply trying to torpedo the man. He was there sincerely and wasn't treated right. He showed the patience. Yes he choked on anwering questions about the book. Perhaps he hadn't seen it before? Either way I've never been a fan of these ambush videos.

I think you said it all but let me add; the religious right is rearing its ugly head. Even without Fallwell it's an ugly hateful bunch.

Obama makes a mistake while carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders and he's declared incompetant. Sarah carrys the weight of the hairspray on her head and she can't even get right what Paul Revere did. Big difference I think. I hope that she runs. It would be so much fun.

Social Networks giving strength to JW protest in Canada!
by koolaid-man inthe social networks facebook , twitter, youtube, etc.
are valuable tools in creating the energy to incite apostates of the watchtower org.
to come out and protest and expose the cover-ups, the child molesters, the shunning and breaking up of families going on in the jehovah's witness religion.. the protest saturday june 25th 2011 from 7 am until 1 pm in front of the pepsi coliseum in quebec city against the watchtower is getting lots of attention on the internet.. protesters are now able to organize and and reach millions of people who have been hurt by this destructive cult.. jean-philippe cossette founder and webmaster of www.watchowerlies.com.

I'm pretty sure that there are no openings for clowns in Rick's "Greatest Show on Earth" considering he's the mayor of clown town. I thought he was bumped from the forum. My faith in God is shaken again!

I now have a gay boyfriend! Disfellowship me!
by TimothyT ini cant believe how amazing i now feel as opposed to how aweful my life was but 4 months ago.. after some careful consideration, i decided to be gay despite being a jw.. the moment i chose this course, my life became so positive and i noticeably felt happy again.. 3 months ago i met a lovely man who took an interest in me.
one week ago we decided it was time to become boyfriends.. well, i feel incredible.
all i can say is that this course of life based on my being true to myself, despite the fact that it contradicts what i have been brought up to believe, has made life worth living again.. despite being gay, and slowly coming out to those who matter to me, i also have come to realise how flawed this organisation is anyway.. im a keen bible student but i dont see the organisations claim to authority.. to be honest, ill be glad to get out of it and start living my life as happily as i can whilst still trying my best to serve god.. thanks to those who supported me and of course to my boyfriend 'jackal' who joined this forum in order to understand what has made up my entire upbringing!.

It looks like they just pantsed him. Big deal. People are so damned lawsuit oriented. Sexual abuse? Hardly.

THE INTERNET - The Means For A Global Revolution?
by sizemik inwe recently had a tour here in new zealand from the musical legend herbie hancock.
during the tour he engaged in a media interview where he expressed himself about the effects of the internet on the global community.. he spoke with intelligence and refreshing optimism about the potential of the internet and the opportunities it opens up for the world community.. in short (and i'm going only from memory here), he expressed how he felt the drawing together of individuals through the internet, and the opportunity for large groups of people to speak with a combined voice, had the capacity to initiate major change.
he highlighted the further potential for large, instantaneous, interest groups, to both highlight issues and bring pressure on world leaders to initiate change.. a recent example is the petitioning of ugandan govt officials regarding the proposed harsh anti-gay legislation being presented before the ugandan parliament.

Does this mean you can make a revolution by spamming the leaders? Hmmmm, a little suspect to me.

PROTESTS AT WATCHTOWER CONVENTIONS
by Lawrence Hughes indear friends,.
as you may know, the watchtower society takes great pride in its district conventions.
please contact me if you can attend any of these protests.. there is no reason why every district convention in the world could not have a protest and receive media coverage to expose the watchtower society.

Simon, please ban Rick for his foolishness and negativity towards this forum. He is an irritant with no purpose other than clog up the database we search here for meaningful information. Again I encourage you to: Ban Rick F.

After Exiting the Witnesses - Are you O.K. Not Knowing about the Future ?
by flipper init seems that religion has always been considered the opium of the people.
or at least many tend to gravitate towards religion to have or solidify some sort of future with a supreme being overlooking them hoping to have a reward either in heaven or in the jehovah's witnesses case - living forever in a " paradise earth ".
it seems that people can't just live day to day and let each day come to them with whatever happens.

The future? There are predictors, ie: health, finances etc. but to have a theological outline of what will happen? Don't need it. Anything that happens will probably have happened before so I guess its not much of a future so much as a repetition of the past. I just want it to be less difficult than joyous. I'm working on behavior that will make it joyous.
