1 hr of my life...wasted...
by XxJazzxX ini went to my first memorial with my wife and her family just to see how this really works in my eyes.
it was very.......interesting, but at least i did get a few laughs out of it.
i honestly wanted to go just to see how it really works....and hear my wife trying to come up with a bargain to avoid going to church on easter.. first off, even though i only went to the hall a few times with my wife, i've never seen so many jw in 1 little place.

Another reinstatment attempt...
by XxJazzxX inwell...my family is moving back to pa in may.
as a result, my wife wrote a 2nd letter to the brothers to see if she can get reinstated before she leave.
her first letter was ok but their response was, of course, attend more meetings!!.

Memorial: A Superstitious Event?
by cameo-d inare the elders required to keep a lunation journal?.
it seems to me that all the focus of the moon phase and getting the "exact right time" of the day and year according to the jewish calendar very much overshadows any stories of jesus.
all this full moon fuss seems to me to be an "observance of times" which was a method of divination.. my question is this..... do jws expect something big to happen on memorial one day?

Are We Not Made In The Image of God?
by XxJazzxX inthis is a typical question i often hear when jws debate on christ's divinity(phillipians 2:5-7).
is is me or when they say this it sounds as if they put us(imperfect, human beings) in the same catagory with the messiah(jesus)?

Is the preaching work one of Jesus' warnings of "great signs and wonders"?
by truthseeker inthere have been recent comments on the forum about jws saying that because they preach in all the inhabited earth, they are god's chosen organization.. when i was first fading and heard this comment, i was momentarily taken back.
what if i'm wrong?
who else is doing the preaching work?

WT Resurrection: A Baffling Doctrine
by kurtbethel inat this point it is apparent that wt doctrine is made up entirely to support getting followers doing what the gb wants them to do, while having gratitude that they make up channel such slop nourishing spiritual food.
they invent doctine and search for supporting scripture after the fact, which usually poorly supports their crafted claims.. the wt version of resurrection is so poorly thought out that instead of explaining the afterlife, it leads to even more questions that can have disturbing answers.. one question to ponder is the rules for uploading the personality to jehovah's server.
is the entire personality uploaded at death?

Do the Elders really care for the DFed ones?
by XxJazzxX in...apparently not enough.... my wife were supposed to meet with the elders saturday.
unfortunately(for her), the brothers cancelled the meeting.
the reason being i dont have a clue, but the way my wife explained it to me was that they had to tend to one of the elder's injury on his leg(she was notified of this the week she turned in that letter so thats not a real excuse because they've had alternatives).

Loosened up or Double-Life?
by XxJazzxX inas i was interested in knowing the watchtower's history, plus hearing testimonies, it would see that back in the 1950s or as far as ex-jws can remember that things were alot stricter.
meetings 5 days a week, field service is needed to stay in good standing, etc.. .
nowadays, since i hang out with one of my jw brother-in-laws, i cant help but to wonder...is today's technological generation taking its tool on the wtbts or are jws accepting it without taking the 'dangers' into consideration?

her birthday was going to be somewhat dry like last year(she couldnt hardly do anything because she was pregnant with our daughter at the time.
