Jw's getting married BEFORE divorces are final?
by Tired of the Hypocrisy ina video was sent to me with some claims that struck me as very odd.
after over 40 years associated with the wbts i never heard that a couple could marry and consumate their marriage even while one of them was in the middle of a divorce that has not been finalized.
the claims are that they can marry with a "promise" to go and get the union ratified by civil authorities and that jehovah and jesus are ok with the fornication as long as they promised.

If god was Almighty than he would of known that Adam and Eve and....Satan... and demons....would sin before he even created anything.
by dutchstef ini posted this a before under an other topis, but i think it's a good question for a new topic!.
one of the things i never understout as a young kid was this:.
the question i had as a kid was: if god is almighty than he would of known that adam and eve and....satan... and demons....would sin before he even created anything.. my father who was an elder back then could never give me a good answer.... my dad would say something like because it's was necessary for god to show us and the angels, we can only have a good live if we live it like god wants .

People monitoring social networking sites
by CrazyBlonde inunsure if there is another thread on this, but i just wanted to put my two cents out there.. it seems that there are certain people in my cong who either have nothing better to do, or are self appointed saviours, who have apparently been monitoring my social networking page.
they were my friends on said page, because i actually am/was friends with a few, not good, but still, friendly enough.
i thought i had my settings so that they couldn't see most things, but apparently i wasn't vigilant enough!.
