  the watchtower used to warn us about watching too much television.

  Do You Think Witnesses Deal With Death Properly?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  jws aren't supposed to breakdown in their emotions for it could be a sign that you put too much emphasis on the temporary.

  just focus on the ressurection, for heaven' sake!

  don't mourn like the world that does not have hope!

  that's what she asked me as i was putting my laundry in my car at the laudromat.

  she was parked right next to me and she rolled down her window and had the awake and watchtower in her hands.

  i said i use to be one of jehovahs witnesses but because of the pedophile problems as well as the societies involvement in the un, i left.

  Another concern

  by lazuli in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know i know, i'm so sorry to bug you guys about this but for obvious reasons i can't talk about it with anyone from the congregation and you guys are familiar with the watchtower.

  in the watchtower, the woman is expected to be 'chaste.

  ' so i'm worried that if i decide to marry someone that is a jw if what i did before will be a problem.

  Would you want Jesus as a friend?

  by scout575 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  whilst christians like to portray jesus as the supreme example of love and mercy ( as opposed to a supposedly wicked 'watchtower god' ), does the bible's presentation of jesus cast him in quite the same flattering light that christians like to believe?

  for instance, at revelation 19:15 jesus is described as 'smiting the nations and ruling them with a rod of iron and treading the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of almighty god.

  ' does jesus sound just as bad as the 'wicked watchtower god'?
