  Do JWs really believe the end is near?

  by keyser soze in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  or do they merely pay lip service to the idea?

  i have no doubt that some of them sincerely believe.

  but when i was a kid, growing up in the '80s, i didn't know of a single witness, myself included, who didn't believe the end was close.

  I volunteer in a Pet Store, at the cat consordium, and my boss mentioned something I never thought I'd hear her say:

  It was just after the Rekivik (Sorry about the spelling) (Multiple Scelrosis brainfog) earthquake. She said, "Well it looks like the Jehovah Witnesse's were right abut the world coming to an end."

  I told her, well, most of the preachers are saying that now......Not immenent....someday, the great tribulation may be having birth pangs, but we have a way to go, quite a way to go.That's my belief

  out of all religions, catholicism, to me, is wrong and clearly could never be the truth.

  I find it hard to believe anyone who has left the JW's, could join any organized religion!!!!!

  I studied Catholisim before a JW gave me the "truth" book, back in '67. I thought the Catholics went against Bible scripture. Especially with the worship of the statue of Mary. I was a Sunday school teacher from the age of 12. Methodist Doctrine. I was against that and left the church I was brought up in.

  women - do you love being around men?

  i only ask because i realise that for over 20 years i just love being around women.

  it's not just for sexual reasons either, though that's important sometimes, i just really like being around women.

  Why to people give thanks (prayer) to god for their food?

  by sinis in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i find it completely ironic that people thank god for food and clothing, when if you look at the ot in genesis you see how yahweh curses the ground and tells man that he will work his ass off for food, shelter, daily life.

  why are people giving thanks to a god who knowingly made life hell to begin with?

  couldn't it be said that man works for his own food and that he should be thanking himself?

  I personally give thanks before eating meals, thanking God for the food, when so many have nothing to eat. I do it becaaue I am grateful!

  Public Talk & Bookstudy Changes - the real reason

  by bud2114 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i havn't been able to keep up with all the discussion in this forum as to why the gb has suddenly decided to implement these changes and perhaps someone has mentioned this already, but to me the most obvious reason has nothing to do with control, or money.

  it has everything to do with the serious shortage of qualified brothers who can (or who are willing to) be used.

  i have been involved in the organzation for 40 yrs and i have never seen the level of apathy and disillusionment among those serving in some capacity in this organization.

  Excellent post and welcome.

  Yes, I agree that it is all those things and also money related.

  Looks like if organized religion gets thrown down, JW's will too.

  And "clowns" is right. I left after 40 years for a lot of reasons, but the "clown" that was conducting the afternoon book study: all he could talk about was how much land he expected Jehovah to give him after the end. He thought his due was at least 10,0000 acres!!!!! I was appalled!
