how many of you are parents of adult children who still follow the wt and think you are misled?
by sowhatnow inwhat have you done so far as to convince them they are misled?
what has worked for you.. it is inconceivable to me, that if my mother or father showed me proof of why the wt org is false, that i wouldn't take them seriously, after all they are older and should know better, but it seems there are some of you who have the opposite outcome, where your children think you are misled and senile, and grandparents are surely labeled as senile.
one would reason then, if this were truly the case, that you are 'senile' or demented, then wouldn't that be taken into consideration when having loving contact with your parents?

For God So Loves the Western World...
by Tempest in a Teacup in...that only people from those countries can lead 'his organization'.. a few years ago, one conversation stopper people would often bring up to jws in my country is: 'you guys are an american religion'.
the standard answer we were formatted to give to shoot that down was that "god does not favor any nationality over others.
however some countries do possess some advantages needed for the advancement of the divine work.

HOW EXACTLY does god communicate with or direct the GB?
by stuckinarut2 inwe're all familiar with the organisations claims (and have seen the flow diagrams in books and mags) that the gb is "directed by god".
in turn, the local elders are "directed by god".
so, how exactly do they suppose this happens?

Lesson to Watchtower, their predictions -- weather forecasters apologize
by FatFreek 2005 inreference the link below to the national weather service in apologizing for falsely predicting the severity of a series of storms.
i wonder if watchtower society will ever apologize for any of their countless false predictions.
********"the northeast was supposed to have been crushed by a much-hyped winter storm today, but it failed to deliver that widespread blow.

If the GB were really interested in the preaching work.....
by pontoon in......they should be out there where the "need is great" spearheading the work.
remember now, the preaching work belongs to the annointed, other sheep are just helpers.
the gb especially should be out there doing it.
