  Name "Kingdom Hall" not biblical

  by Ephanyminitas in

  2. beliefs

  did jehovah's witnesses choose the name "kingdom hall" just to be "different"?

  it's certainly not a biblical name.

  would "synagogue" be more biblical?

  "DF'd JWs speak out against practice"

  by Ephanyminitas in

  1. social
  2. current

  shirley jackson was "disfellowshipped," or excommunicated, from the jehovah's witnesses in 1995 after being associated with the church for 30 years.

  jackson is speaking out against the organization because "i don't want anybody to go through what i went through.".

  here's a question: how many licks does it take to get to the center of a t--?.

  uh ... sorry.. here's the right question: what is the society's official stance on neanderthals?

  The desire to return just for family's sake

  by Ephanyminitas in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  those of you who have close witness family members -- how hard has it been not to just throw up your hands and just return to the society, just for appearance's sake?

  my parents, whom i love very much, are witnesses, and it's very difficult for me to go day to day knowing that i'm completely letting them down.

  i no longer believe anything the society says, but oh how tempting it would be to just go back and fake my way through, knowing that i could give my parents peace.

  the version i found was full of errors and odd formatting, so those of you concerned with such matters should find this one a bit clearer.

  (please report errors to me via e-mail.

  to those of you that are big "super smash bros. melee" fans (as am i!

  but i'm sitting at a computer right now (duh) listening to the green greens theme -- the orchestration of classic nintendo themes is excellent -- and i just noticed that it sounds a bit like a kingdom melody.

  of course, it's tons catchier than a k.m., but you get the point.. while i'm on the topic, are there any other ssb:m fans in the audience?
