cut her off at the pass.
just ask her what she thinks, not what the watchtower thinks.
i asked a jw several questions via email ....this was the only question she has answered.. the first page talks about false doctrines.
do jehovah's witnesses feel that they are prophets?
the title of this is "the end of false religion is near" that sounds like a prophesy.. this is her answer.. whatwastheroleoftheprophets?.

from the dubs.
after being cornered and tired of the games, i suggested kevin elder meet me and i would give him my letter of da.
he doesn't know it has been posted on this forum and on jwfacts site for a week or better, and that i sent many copies of it out to former friends last friday.
handled like a true gentleman. poignant...i wish i had that sort of tact.
yesterday my wife (an inactive-but-not-yet-df'd jw) and i went over to visit her parent's house (still very active jws), and my mother-in-law handed my wife a flyer entitled 'the end of false religion is near' with a nice evil-destroying lightning bolt pictured on the front.
she whispered to my wife that this was a new campaign and was not supposed to be handed out until next month, but was "very excited, because this is supposed to bring about the tribulation".. they may be right.
inside the two pages they call catholics condoning child molesting (ironic), non-jws blood thirsty war mongers, and how people involved in politics are under mind control (again, ironic), among other things.
You notice they did not have anything bad to say about Muslims. Probably afraid maybe a plane would fly into the headquarters in Brooklyn if they did.
good point ... they will probably start talking crap about muslims if they think it will get a rise though. they keep taking stabs at the catholics but they are too easy prey. where's the courage in that? "tempest in a teapot" indeed
i run into 6 sisters today .
i would guess poineering.
figured i'd stop and give them a try.
whoa, great job! you think those old birds will tell the elders? lol

yeah... my mom was talking about it like it was big shit, the end of the world and all that.
i had to stifle my laughter.
It's the equivalent of a snotty little kid poking people just to get their backs so they can pretend to be martyrs in front of their mommy.
i know many have been hurt by association with the wts, but i was just wondering, are there any truths that you accually can take away from your association with it.
for instance, before becoming a jw i would recite the lord's prayer, and had never read in matt.
that is was not to be recited, but that it was mearly there as an example of how to pray.
learning to be socially retarded kept me out of a lot of bad situations in high school...but come to think of it...it kept me out of ALL situations.
hi gang.
how many speaker follies can you guys remember?
i remember myself giving a presentation on the talking ass in numbers 22 once.
they have assigned it to a young teenage brother.
this is always the case. why, why, why!
there's been speculation about how the society could make wt cd's with "site monitoring" software on them, how about internet service provided by the society?
this way you'd feel like you have the freedom to surf the net but all the "bad" stuff would be blocked out.
they'd have total control over what the surfer sees.
i imagine it would be like AO-helL.
the knocking dvd comes with a 48-page study/discussion guide.
it includes information about the making of the film, all the main characters, their early history, expansion, civil rights, their community structure, their preaching methods, and distribution of literature ( that adds up to their annual operation expense of over a billion dollars).. some dvd scenes include:.
people from stratton, ohio being interviewed along with the mayor.
so is this pro-jdub or anti ?

i cringed whenever we had a reading of the song of solomon. it's littered with sexual stuff.
and i've always wondered what any of it had to do with the bible that it should be included in it.
