Two by two going to a funeral!!
by alanv ini'm sitting at home watching cricket on the box( i know that's sad) and look out of the window and who do i see but two sets of people walking down the street calling on peoples houses.
yes jehovah's witnesses.. the weird thing is that they are walking even slower than people in a funeral march.
they look just as unhappy as if someone has just died.. also why do they go house to house in twos.

Scan Requests! Plz hlp.
by Darklighter ini've made up my mind... even though the odds of success don't bode well (this is sadly due to her extremely strong familial connections and not super-loyalty to the org.
), i'm going to try to get my wife out by showing her my huge stack of watchtower lies, false prophecy, and idiocy.
i just need to complete my documentation on 607 bce with some good research from the local library, but that's not where i need help.

Are the GREAT CROWD even supposed to go to Memorial?
by maryacclaim inso i ask this because, we read in luke 22:19, "to keep doing this in remebrance of me.
" so the society says that we are commanded to continue to observe this.
however, in john 6:53,54 we read, "most assuredly, i say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.

Why is it not enough for them?
by KW13 inwhy is it not enough for witnesses when you tell them that you made the choice not to be a witness yourself and for you, and your family if you have one?
surely they must see that its not quick, rushed, evil or anything if they take into consideration that it affects whether or not you live forever, how you live and all kinds of things and that a matter of life and death from their perspective and yours isnt made lightly?.
i love my wife and son and my mother.

Here's to you!
by purpleplus injw's have been taught that toasting is of pagan origin.
by accident i came across the origins of the custom.
in ancient greece the host would raise his glass after taking the first sip of wine, indicating that the wine is safe to drink, hence the common dedication "to your health" or something like that.
