This Riddle reminds me of the WTBTS
by 3dogs1husband ini dont know how well this riddle will work in written form, this reminds me so much of the round and round reasoning jw (my mom) uses daily.. three men go skiing, and forgot to book their hotel rooms.
they find a hotel with only one room left, and the three agree to take it and share.
the bell hop kept 2 dollars.

Info For Newbies and Current Jehovah's Witnesses! Please Read!
by mentallyfree31 inexample: gravity is real.
because if 607 bce is wrong, then so is 1914 and 1918 and 1919. very simple.
so if we cannot trust secular research, then we can definitely discard the date of 607 bce.

JW's say Worldly People are Better Off DEAD
by UnDisfellowshipped injehovah's witnesses and the "better off dead" doctrine.
for decades the official jw teaching was that "worldly people" (non-jws) would be "better off dead" because "the wages sin pays is death" and once you have died, you have paid for your sins, so then jehovah is free to resurrect you (as long as you had not committed the "unforgivable sin").. whereas, if you had not died and had remained a worldly "unbeliever" when armageddon arrived, jehovah would have destroyed you and doomed you to everlasting destruction in gehenna.. this "better off dead" doctrine never did make any sense to me.
why would jehovah resurrect you if you died the day before armageddon, but if you stayed alive until the next day you would be destroyed and doomed forever to the lake of fire?

Do you think they will get a new bible?
by twinkle toes ini was thinking about the fact that the society is changing all the lingo that is associated with the new world order, new system and the like.
what i was wondering is if it is important to get away from this phrasing, what are they going to do with the new world translation?
do you think they will start publishing it under a new name?

My life ... and how JWD came to be - Part 5
by Simon inmy life ... and how jwd came to be - part 1. my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 2. my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 3. my life ... and how jwd came to be - part 4. i swear, i thought it was only a couple of years at most since i wrote part 4 of "my life and how jwd came to be".
i re-read it after someone posted to it and brought it back on active topics and it was kind of prophetic in a way ... well, i had the 5 years part right if nothing else:.
it would be nice to visit the site (or whatever one is around then) in 5 years time to let people know how we're doing and find only a few of the same people still around.

by BonaFide inin my hall growing up, i remember 6 childless couples.
some have died, some are still alive.. i stayed single for the kingdom, hope to change that.. presently in my congregation, there are 4 brothers over 30, two over 40, that are single for the kingdom.
and about 10 single sisters over 25.. three of the five married elders have no children.

The Truth From the Bible About the 144,000
by AllTimeJeff ini hope this wont take me too long, as being concise isnt my biggest talent.
a recent thread on the 144,000 made me put a couple of things together about the governing body.
these are the ones that claim to have authority from jehovah, to tell the over 6,00,000 that although we arent masters over anyones faith, these 150 items are absolutely prohibited for you to do.
