Were YOU a JW Who Was Always Afraid, Depressed or Ill?
by minimus inwhile i was an elder (in 2 congregations), over the years, i saw most witnesses that suffered from s o m e t h i n g.. either a witness had chronic depression, mysterious ailments that were never clearly diagnosed by a doctor, or were in fear.
afraid to offend another brother's conscience.,afraid to upset the elders.
afraid to grieve the holy spirit.

To those still "active", what makes you keep going to meetings?
by Cindi_67 ini've been reading a lot of posts and a lot of you here on the board, are "active" members, attend all meetings and conventions, go out in field service, even help with quick builds.
i don't want this to sound like i am disrespecting anybody, but what makes you lead a double life?
doesn't anybody at the hall notice your lack of interest?

Not preaching semi okay?
by techdotcom inso i havn't gone out in field service in something like 10 years.
doesn't it seem wierd that for a religion and organization that stresses the importance of 'preaching the good news', that not doing so seems so low on the discipline list?
seriously you can miss a couple of meetings and someone will probably feel you out to see if something (spirital or physical) is wrong.

The Governing Body Channels ...
by compound complex insomeone asked a question recently about how the gb acquires new light.
i cannot recall the title of the thread but did find this information in my file that a fellow poster put up a while back:.
just for reference, this is from the jan 1st 2007 watchtower - "the first resurrection now under way ?".

generation overlap
by cskyjw.sun inin 1914 say an anoited was 14 years old lived up to 80years old in 1980;and then another jw became anoited say at age of 20and lives up to 100 years old,then "this generation" would stretch to1980+80=2060.so the end would extend for another 50 years.
