The next time I see the cart babysitters

by Sour Grapes in

the next time i see the jdubs standing or sitting by their carts sipping their coffee lattes or updating their facebook pages, i am going to approach them with the following thought process acting as an interested person.. do jw's believe the end is near?.

do you consider your preaching work to be urgent?.

why do you just let people walk by if their very lives are at stake?

While I know what you mean, they are braced for such questions.

"We are here to be used by Jehovah as tools when He draws "deserving ones to His undeserved kindness."

Sincere question to those who no longer believe in God

by nowwhat? in

i get it, not a fan of yahweh the desert god.

but what about jesus?

anything wrong with his teachings like the sermon on the mount and the example he set.

OnTheWayOut

So much money is wasted on worship (or semi-worship) to Jesus and people letting preachers tell them how to live. The hope with Jesus is for some kind of life after death, so these people throw away not only their money but their precious time for a never-realized future reward.

Why do you think they changed Ester and Christ death from?

by Crazyguy in

i believe the early christians going back as far as constantine changed the ritual of a savior coming and the resurrection of the messiah from the spring equinox to the following full moon.

or should i say the full moon after the spring equinox.

so why the change?

OnTheWayOut

Sorry, I named the years he might have been born.

They calculate the death of Jesus as having taken place between AD 30 and 36.

Pretty wide range.

disfellowshipped and looking to find someone in the same possition

by whatisgoingonpls in

where can i find a disfellowshipped wife ;)

OnTheWayOut

If she's a gorgeous looking blonde with a great personality. Who cares what her background is 😉

If you got one of those for him, I imagine he can get past her not being a disfellowshipped JW.
While you are at it, independently wealthy might be nice too.

Seriously folks, there is nothing wrong with wanting to find someone who "gets it" because they were there.

When You See A JW Approaching What Are Your Thoughts?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i used to get a weird feeling in my stomach when i would see a witness approaching.... almost a sense of dread.

now, i really don’t care.

i have even made it a point to do the approaching when i see a witness trying to convert an ignorant person..

OnTheWayOut

As I drive, I see them all the time doing the door-to-door and sometimes I see them with their carts. I don't approach them.

The main thing is that I feel pity that they are slaving so much for something so worthless.

I don't believe that the stories about Jesus are true, but there are enough details in the New Testament to be pretty specific with the Jewish calendar based on lunar cycles to pin down the date within the year that they say this stuff happened.

But otherwise, you are right. They could not pin down if this happened in 2 BCE or 4 AD or whatever. Too many variables to argue over. But also, because it's a myth.

JW Jokes

they don't want you to donate blood because..... .....it might be within the erection of a homosexual act at any time.

watchtower tried to become the internet service provider of their members...... ......but their virus software kept deleting all but 144,000 select files.

what do you get when you cross a devil worshipper with a jehovah's witness?

OnTheWayOut

A circuit overseer is called a C.O. (See-Oh)

His wife is sometimes called a C.O.W. which might be shortened by some to be said, "cow."

What do you call a circuut overseer's baby?

.......a "circuit breaker."

Betheliesalot:
How do you get "new light" from an old Watchtower?
Set it on fire.

I think that is the best one.
