JW's don't go church... they go to the Kingdom hall
by loosie indo you remember correcting everyone who would ask you where you go to church.
the jw reply was usually something like....we don't go to a church we go a kingdom hall.
jw's just have to be different you know.. yesterday i went to my citys museum.

Percentage of publishers that are baptized?
by Gayle inand how old does a "publisher" (one that turns in a 'report') have to be?
i forget how that works.. most churches require their members to be baptized to be counted.
but jws count publishers, though maybe not baptized, so that would be a lot of their children.. i do see the percentage of jws baptisms are clearly decreasing, though their "publishers" percentage they claim are increasing..

Has a music Video ever discribed your Life?
by Darth plaugeis inthis video is from a brazil rock group charlie brown jr.. i first saw it a few years ago and ... well let me break it down.. (it's in portuguese but the lyrics don't matter.... love led zeppelin... but can someone tell me what plant is saying in trampled underfoot?).
1. bar scene darth being told he can't have fun..for it is written.. 2. darth gets hit by the truth and get hurt and gets blamed for his pain.. 3. after being beaten by the truth.....he discovers it's all about money!!!!.
4. darth feels freedom with this new information.. 5. the truth does not like darth knowing this and comes after him.

Why do some expect the WTS to one day end? It's simply not going to happen folks........
by jambon1 inin my anger as an ex witness about 4 years ago i really wished that this would happen.
although the glaring errors, hypocrisy & downright badness of the wts was finally evident to me personally, others whom i had expeced to eventually leave the org have not.. i think it dawned on me around 1 or 2 years ago that my wife will never leave the witnesses.
having presented in both heated & reasonable debate every kind of logical argument against the religions teachings the conversations would get to the point where she would simply refuse to answer my questions.

The Dawkins Delusion
by brotherdan inso, i recently finished reading "the god delusion" by richard dawkins.
i read it with a certain amount of hesitation.
after all, i am still recovering from my disappointment at realizing that the wts is not god's organization.

'Unbiased' Study Bible or Commentary Recommendations?
by pirata inare there any commentaries or study bibles that anyone can recommend?
i'm not sure if it's possible to be 100% unbiased, but looking for something that tries to keep theological speculation, or scripture bending to fit theology, to a minumum.. esv study bible was referenced in another thread, but the description says it is "evangelical".
not sure if that indicates a theological bias or not..
