Jehovah's Witnesses and beards
by Dave_T inwhen i was a jw, i don't remember having read in the watchtower literature a rule explicitely forbidding to be bearded.
the pictures depicting "faithful witnesses" of the past (abraham, job,, moses, the apostles, etc.
) always show bearded men.

Are JW esperiences simply Coincidental?
by Smoky ini saw a home video of a dc in san fransico yesterday, in which to camara man asked "what didi you like from day one of the convention?
" among the answers given was the amazing "experiences" the brothers told.. now as far as i can remember, jw's always said things like, 'the experiences show that jehovah is blessing us and is in our favor.'.
but dont other religions have amazing experiences that claim also miracles and blessing from god.

This site does give you fair warning
by free2beme inyesterday, my active witness mother called me.
we talk all the time, and since she knows i am wiccan and do not consider myself christian and am against the witnesses.
she never brings it up, so that we can have a censored relationship.

Will only Christians be saved?
by greendawn ini asked a catholic priest if one needs to be a catholic to be saved, to compare with the jw belief that one has to be a jw to be saved.
his answer was interesting and based on romans 2:12-14 (nlt version) .
"14 even when gentiles, who do not have god's written law, instinctively follow what the law says, they show that in their hearts they know right from wrong.

American version of Harry Potter?!
by Dave_T ini've recently heard that the harry potter series had been "translated" in american english.
i've read books in both british english and american english for years and i've never perceived them as 2 different languages.
there are a few differences like there are differences between canadian french and belgian french but it's still the same language, right?
