Do you want the real truth or not?
by Jason inon this website there seems to be so many lies and so little actual truth.
is this supposed to be a place to get answers or confuse the hell out of truth seekers?
well, for you seekers out there, if you find the truth on this site it'll be a major fluke.

R. FRANZ UNWITTINGLY TELLS THE TRUTH
by Yadirf inraymond franz unwittingly reveals the truth insofar as the comparability of todays jehovahs witnesses and those who were true worshipers in queen esthers day.. raymond franz said:.
raymond franz, a high-ranking jehovah's witness who was disfellowshipped and then wrote two books about the inner workings of the faith, said he doesn't believe cases of pedophilia are any more prevalent in the denomination than in others.
but the religion's insularity leads to problems, he said.

Independence Day and African Americans
by jimmyjames ina black friend of mine will not celebrate the 4th of july.
he feels it's a mockery since black people were still slaves when the country gained its independence.. i wanted to hear what other people think of that.
that's the first person i've ever heard mention it, but i never thought about that.

Why no JW Sunday School for the little people?
by Jigrigger inthis came up with an acquaintance recently.
it has been brought up a few times on db's like this a time or two.
why don't jws limit the amount of involvement in "worship" by children to sunday school like mainstream christianity does?

Please Respond To Survey! 25 more needed please.
by Big Jim init seems like to me the majority of people who are in the truth, are were in the truth was a result of either a family member are a friend witnessing to them and not many seem to have been found in the door to door work.. from my years of associating with the borg i cannot recall many coming in the truth from the door to door work.. how were you sucked in?
for me it was my aunt who has now even though i am not disfellowshipped decided to write me out of her will to the tune of about $150,000.00 (maybe i should hang around a couple more years)dont think i will.. please respond .
thanks.

The "Theocratic" View
by Jigrigger inhow many of you ex-jws can recall a particular instance during your life as a jw when you or someone you know had a mini crisis of conscience over what you now, upon reflection, consider to be the most trivial or petty in nature?.
i've got a good one for you.
i remember my mom and one of my aunts engaged in a very serious debate about whether they should feed a freshly caught mouse to the cat because it hadn't been properly bled!!!.

"...in the breezy part of the afternoon......
by Jigrigger inthis quote from gen. referring to life in the garden gave me pause to post a question to anyone who might have special interest in weather science.. if, as according to the way jws understand the biblical account, the pre-flood earth was enshrouded in a global mist under a canopy of water, where are the weather systems which are needed to create wind.
remember, for this "canopy" theory to be true we have to eliminate normal daytime heating as the cause for a "breezy" time of the day, since daytime heating would have caused cloud build-up and inevitibly caused it to rain - which apparently wasn't a feature of pre-flood life.
do you think that the necessary elimination of weather systems - in order to maintain a "canopy" - goes against well understood laws of our physical world?.
