Help! Suggestions on what to say to a Niece who is Studying...
by BabaYaga ini have been trying to prepare myself for an upcoming visit with a beloved neice who is studying.
the situation is this: my beloved nephew, her husband (he is like a son to me) was baptized and "faded" many years ago.

Did You Know what You Were Getting Into?
by Honesty inwe as jehovah's witnesses do not allow people to become baptized prior to gaining accurate knowledge of what we believe and teach according to the bible.
if someone wants to join with us in worship and become baptized, they must also demonstrate that they know what they are getting into.
that they agree with what we believe and teach.. .

If you DA yourself are you giving in to the GB?
by bronzefist ini'm not criticizing anyone's decision to da themselves...just wondering what the advantages are.. if the whole da thing is something made up by the gb why make them happy by playing by their rules?
how are they hurt by your decision?
why not just walk away?

Ever know of a great family movie, the Witnesses found demons or evil in?
by free2beme ini remember growing up, the witness children were often ones that were left to see all those g rated movies from disney.
yet even those at time, while accepted by just about every religion out there, were considered demonic.
for example, the following movies were said to show witchcraft and in or congregation we were encouraged to discard them and not own copies of them; sleeping beauty, snow white, the little mermaid, bed knobs and broomsticks, and fantasia.
