Been here a while myself, amazing how this place carried on, growing from strength to strength and yes while there have been 'odd' moments where some hurtful and strange things have happened, its all part of growth and is necessary.

For all the Witnesses proud about the coverage due to Jackson Family
by KW13 ini've lost count of the number of times witnesses have pointed excitedly to the most obscure references and mentions to their religion.
'look...look we're in the paper'.. what i say next isn't related to my personal feelings regarding michael jackson, however it needs to be said.. what i would like to say to all the witnesses, proud that their religion is gaining coverage through the whole michael jackson fiasco is this.
take one look at the mental state of those family members and tell me they are what you would consistute as 'normal' and 'wise'.

Just because the real life equivalent to the Adams family adopt your religion, doesnt make it any better, real or tangible.

Manipulation as its worst
by unbeliever inmy brother has been dating this woman for 6 months.
he made it clear from the very beginning before they got serious that he would not marry her or anyone for that matter.
does not want a repeat.

To be honest, having a child with her doesn't seem a very sensible idea (not that i agree with abortions btw). If she is pregnant and choosing to abort the child then that is not his fault. You cannot blackmail someone into marriage, using his emotions and feelings is downright evil.

Why is Jesus kept side stage ?
by iknowall558 injohn 5 :39 ' 40 "you study the scriptures, because you think that in them you will find eternal life.
and these very scriptures speak about me!
yet you are not willing to come to me in order to have life.

For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.
Nothing else there...

This is not necessarily about just worshipping Jesus though is it? The Watchtower Society downplay his role by focusing on their own importance.
For example how do you get saved as a Jehovah's Witness? By showing complete obedience to his Earthly representative the Watchtower Society until Jesus actually begins to rule over Earth. As long as Jesus is 'otherwise engaged' the Society are free to do as they like, going as far as to say that Jesus examined each religion and chose them.

Thing is, if they work along the lines of Jesus is 'less' than God, and that he chose the Organization as his earthly representative then they are basically the new jesus, something for people to see and follow on earth. This then gives them the power to do as they please.

When i went to Last years memorial, i almost felt like crying. Seeing them pass around something that biblically they are supposed to eat/drink to have the reward, they cant even get that bit right. It felt meaningless, depressing and to be honest it didnt feel like a celebration at all.
