Are JW's generally better than average people?
by JH ini for one, would blindly trust just about anyone on this forum, just the fact of knowing that you already were a jw.. does this mean that jw's in general are better people or are we a very close bunch of people?.

What did you think of "new light"?
by reneeisorym inyou kind of get to a point where you know all the answers when you are a jw.
you don't really have to research much more because its the same stuff they present over and over again.
"jehovah's reminders" but i kind of looked forward to new light.

JWs - Weaklings who despise power?
by jakes injws are not much inclined towards spirituality.their beliefs should be classed under the heading dogma.however,from the outside looking in,their distinguishing feature is not their dogma but their intense hatred of the world.for more than a century they have done nothing but groan upon it and have done very little for the plight of mankind in general.their leadership continues to exhort their followers to 'put on the complete suit of armour'.soon christ with his heavenly legions will destroy the governments,clergy,higher learning institutions and the churches.. hate seems to be foremost in their passion to see this world end.. do you think that jws are weaklings who despise the powerful because they lust after power themselves?
( matthew's 'faithfull and discreet slave' seems to be very much exalted in the jws ).

Am I bored with JWD? Or have I outgrown it?
by AK - Jeff inthis is not one of those 'farewell' threads, 'gotta' go' threads, or 'bye' threads.
because i know myself well enough to say that i would not honor my own exit - i would soon be back, .
but in all honesty, i am finding my desire to be on this forum less and less compelling.

"Follow the Christ " conventions...is it me?
by Gordy inlooking at the convention invitation,.
does anyone get the feeling this is a ploy by the wt to project themselves as "christian".
the way it is worded gives the image that they are "christ centred".

What % of JW's think they will make it to the New System without dying?
by JH inwhen i joined some 20 years ago, i was 99% sure i'd make it alive and see the new system without dying, because they way they put it, the end was so close, and i was so young.. today, if i was still going to meetings, i would say that i would be 20% sure of seeing the new sytem without dying first.. if you were still a jw, or if you still are going to meetings, what % would you say is your odds of making it to the new system without dying?.

False Christs---False Prophets
by Sunspot in~~~"at that time if anyone says to you, 'look, here is the christ!
for false christs and false prophets will rise up and give great signs and wonders so as to mislead, if possible, even the chosen ones.
" mt 24:23,24. what "form of religion" has announced that christ has already returned (in 1919), <u>invisibly</u> and chosen them as the only ones he has approved over all the earth?.
