If the FDS is to lead us, then why wasn't this written in the Bible?
by 3Mozzies inif the fds is to lead us, then why wasn't this (see below) written in the bible?.
matthew 24. while he was sitting upon the mount of olives, the disciples approached him privately, saying: .
tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence and of the conclusion of the system of things?

For those who saw flaws in Watchtower doctrine and left. Why do you not apply the same standard of examination to your current beliefs?
by nicolaou ini know that many left because of a lack of real love or for other personal reasons.
i would never belittle those reasons for exiting, they are as valid as any other, but if that describes your situation then perhaps this topic might not apply so much to you.. i left the watchtower because i came to realise the doctrine was flawed.
i was in my mid 30's before my mind begin waking up and i started to develop basic critical thinking abilities.

The Witness Who Cried Wolf
by sabastious inwitnesses, for some reason, feel they deserve massive credibility in bible predictions and interpretations.
enough that they feel they have to right o be considered an universal authority.. their claim to fame comes from, mainly, their stance on blood, the trinity, immortality of the soul and hellfire.
maybe this is actually what the bible teaches... but to me, it is a moot stance in regards to the position they claim to have a right to.. the witnesses have been heralding the coming of christ for well over a century.

Psychology of prayer
by Introspection init seems there has been much talk on prayer lately, and i thought it would be helpful for us to discuss the psychological nuts and bolts, without getting into the realm of religious belief.
regardless of whether the source of change is human or divine mind, i think we can agree that the mind is a powerful thing, capable of affecting real change.. my guess is most of us don't pray for money or material things, but those of us who do basically ask for two things: direction and strength, or you might say knowledge and power.
i recall that as jws, we were taught to be specific in our prayers.

Unbelievable quote from 1967 Watchtower , 11/15 p.680
by callitquits76 injust been looking heavily into wt quotes today to see their swings and roundabouts version of 'truth', and i came across this.
bearing in mind that the revelation book has recently had a spruce up and 70 adjustments needed to be added...:.
"in 1930, two volumes entitled light were published, which brought a more up-to-date explanation of the revelation, and very recently, in 1963, the book babylon the great has fallen!
