JW friend wants to tell me about Christ's return in 1914....Advice needed!
by whyizit inmy long time friend recently took the plunge (baptized) and is now trying to recruit me.
one of the first things she told me is how all the "other religions" should be carefully inspected, because they are all wrong, in a nut shell.
so, i asked the obvious: i'm not concerned with all the others, i'm here to talk about your's.

Can anyone explain...
by Lillith26 inhi, can anyone please explain to me why?...
in the "blood dvd" the org says "that although we will not accept practises that go against our religion (blood transfusion), as jw's we do still wish to have the very best medical treatment avaliable to us.." but the majority of witlesses wont let themselves, their children or other members go to uni to become docters/surgions etc.
please explain????.

Open Minded Christians?
by homeschool indoes anyone know if there is such a thing as a christian church that loves and appreciates jesus, but also recognizes that it is purely a culteral thing and also acknowledges other religions as truth?
are unitarians like this?
i'm getting to the point where i'd really like to find a group like this.

The Gig is Up!
by cameo-d inevery few centuries, religion has to change it's face.. there's always a plan b in the wings.. this religious house of cards is destined to fall.
it has been an orchestrated plan all along.. but while people have been debating and arguing over religious dogma, the carcases of controversy designed to keep us occupied and blinded, the capstone elite have been silently moving their new plans to fruition.. the totalitarian theocratic system aka kingdom of god is a business venture.
it is a reorganization between commerce, religion, and politics.

What were you going to (wait to) do in the new system?
by Kudra ini was reading on jwr a thread that linked to these funny indian music videos that weere "subtitled" in english (very funny if you have seen them...) and the thread author was like, "after armageddon if i get resurrected i'm totally going to direct indian music videos".
which is all sorta beside the point, but prompted me to think back and try to recall what exactly i planned to do in the new system.
you know- we all had those things we really wanted to do but were going to "wait until the new system to..." do whatever.. so: are you actually doing those things now, or were they totally unrealistic and fairytale type stuff like "riding a tiger up mt everest and snowboarding down"??

Purple Triangles - Symbol of JW faith?
by POs Son ini clicked on one of the google-ad sponsors on jwn, and saw the purple triangle on the http://www.servicesupplies.net/ website.
so help me understand this: is it ok for a jw to use the nazi symbol of a purple triangle to identify themselves, but using the cross is not acceptable?.
wow!.

Breaking free and closure...
by RaraAvis ini have only been posting on this site for a short time, and haven't completely decided how i feel about it.
i have found it interesting to say the least, and have learned a lot from members such as andersonsinfo and others.
i have felt compassion for many who have posted here, have felt out of the loop by many others who have formed tight "friendships" with each other here, have been shocked by some users, have been inspired by others ... you get the idea... i have had a full spectrum of thoughts more or less.. however.... the one feeling i get the most is it reminds me of divorce, or when you split off from someone who mattered to you and you can't seem to let go.

Would you rather roll with the punces, get mad, or get even?
by The Berean inyou have been unquestionably offended by a family member (spouse, children, parents, inlaws).
the family member refuses to see your side or admit any responsibility.
under what corcumstances will it be in your best interest either to ignor the situation, express your anger, or somehow demand justice?
