History of the Bible - JWs will not like this
by Amazing1914 inhistorically, the bible is a secondary support for christians and jews.
i was raised roman catholic, and our tradition and practices included the bible, but it was not a key centerpiece of our faith.
the jewish side of my family likewise have a rich history of tradition and faith that is lived, and not pinned down to every word in the bible.

JWs Try To Micro-Manage Every Possible Scenario In Life!
by minimus inwhy can't witnesses be like normal people?
because they have to think about every single possibility that might or could occur.
what if someone could be "stumbled" by my course?

What was the first thing Adam said when he set eyes on Eve?
by ballistic inaccording to the bible he decided to name her "woman".
in the previous verses he had been on an exercise to name all the beasts of the field and birds of the air.. personally, if i'd been wandering around a paradise garden on my own for years naming animals and suddenly set eyes on a perfect naked woman, i think i would be inclined to invent the first swear word.. although later, when eve gave birth, adam said it had been "with the lord's help".
so maybe he wasn't quite as spontaneous as i'd imagined, or maybe adam thought god was serious when he said she was a "helper".

JW & Schools
by LaCatolica inhere's a question and forgive me if someone's already touched on this subject, but...
why don't jws, like the catholics & christians, have their own private schools where they can exercise their "no saluting flags, no celebrations, no holidays ( they can go to school all year long!!!!
imagine what the curriculum would be like.

Should Witness parents be allowed to adopt nonWitness children?
by free2beme inwith my sister now in the process of adoption, i am becoming more and more aware how the courts view witnesses.
although you are told religion will not play a factor, my sister says that a lot of attention has been focused on the fact that her husband and her are not both witnesses and they want to know "now" what religion the child will be raised in.
they have not said that it would play a factor, but i think it will.
