I found it on evidenceministries.org. I'm good friends with the owner and author. Amazing guy. He's a watchtower and mormon expert. If you ever can, try to find sermons by "Keith Walker". One really good one is "The Wishy Washy Watchtower" and the other is "The Watchtower - False Prophets".

Kingdom Hall Dreaming
by Darth plaugeis inhow many of you have had these dreams, where you find yourself at the hall or assembly?.
i have found myself in both scenarios, almost 10 years since i set foot in either, but when i do have these dreams (not often) i do laugh out loud in my dream saying "what the hell am i doing here" and the freinds..... oh how are you, it's so good to see you back.
and the venue is always dark.

Although, I had to have my beer alone. No "real" JW would've left early with me. I think we'd have been friends Darth.

My daughter asked me this today.
by thenoblelodge inshe asked me why god didn't step in to stop tragedies.
for example, recently twin baby girls were attacked in their cots while their parents were down stairs.
both suffered life changing injuries.. my daughter knows a couple who have waited years for a baby and eventually had i.v.f.

When I look at the answers of Mad Sweeny and superpunk, it makes me so furious at the WTS. This is what is bred when you drive people away from truth like you do! Shame on you!

Sorry...I wasn't aware the kids didn't die. However, the principle still applies. I think God is with the handicapped more than the normal person anyway. They can still have a happy relationship with god regardless.

I'm kind of disappointed in some of you guys. You hate what the WT did to you, but you still hold on to your bitterness. The Bible does answer these questions.
In Jesus day there was a horrible tragic event that obviously shook up a lot of people. Jesus brought it up in Luke 13:4. The 18 that died were no better nor were they any worse than any other person. But accidents happen, and God lets life take a natural course. I believe that MANY who think their prayers for protection were answered are not looking at things accurately.
CAN God protect us? Yes. Does he always? No.
You can either be horribily sad that these kids died, or you can realize what has actually happened to them. Right NOW they are happier than they have ever been. God knows the difference between temporary happieness and long term happiness. Could he have stopped them from dying? If that was necessary, yes. But where are they now? Matthew 18:3 shows that the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to...CHILDREN. All of us adults can only hope to be as innocent as these precious children.
So while I will never say "God took these kids" or "God needed them as angels". I will say that they are now in heaven with Jesus living a wonderful life, and will be there to welcome their parents when their parents die faithfully or are caught up in the wind when Jesus comes. That is my honest answer. Anyone that says "No one can know what happened to them" should be ashamed.

I don't know if anyone has noticed this or not, but do you realize that some of the new songs are plagerized. I know it may be nauseating to some, but go to jw.org and download "Preach the Word" and tell me what movie theme that song is ripped from? Maybe I should start a new thread about this.
It's sort of a cool melody...only because it was written by John Fricken Williams.

I don't have to dream about it. I live it. I go to the hall and no one talks to me. My wife had a talk last night, so I came in and stood in the back with my son for 20 mins until the program started. Sure, maybe I should've talked to others, but I felt like a stranger in a strange place.
