Absalom prefigured young JWs who fist bump, play video games, and take pictures of themselves with the opposite sex
by JimmyPage injehovah's witnesses top the list in not being able to hold on to their younger members.
so what do they do to combat this?
do they go out of their way to change things to keep the next generation, their only real hope of long run survival?

Why Does God Have an Organization?--Article in the Public Edition--Feb. 1, 2012 Watchtower!
by sd-7 ini'm very surprised to see an article like this in the public edition of the watchtower.
it seems as though they are specifically trying to address the ex-jw criticisms, though of course, in their own limited way.. lies abound.
page 26: "jesus organized his followers to witness about jehovah and to make disciples in all nations.

When you were active, did you feel you would survive Armageddon?
by Band on the Run ini am curious about this issue.
personally, i never felt i would be good enough for a split second.
one would think that knowing you can not be good enough to survive would it make it easier to leave the witnesses and live for the present.

"Why Love Never Fails"....Giving the talk tonight. Help?
by stillstuckcruz injeez....i if this was about two years ago, i could have put this talk togather lickety split.
but i'm finding it impossible because i can't bring myself to put in phrases such as "god's true people", "love motivates us to....." , etc, etc.
every sentence i add, i just want to throw up because it's all such...pish posh and falsehoods and hypocrisy.

JW Apologists, Lurkers, etc., can you prove the selection in 1919?
by garyneal ini mean, this is the pivotal doctrine that will prove beyond all shadow of a doubt that this religion really is the one true religion.. why is this so?.
why not just read and study the bible and see that the witnesses adhere to it and therefore must be the one true religion?.
because a lot of what the witnesses say that bible says is merely their interpretation of the bible from my point of view.

"Flawed Faith vs. Loss of Faith"
by leavingwt inbelow is a quote from a recent thread at the channel c forum that caught my attention.
it llustrates how the exit strategy for some awakened jws must include a religious alternative.
this particular individual is particularly concerned that jw children will become godless, upon learning that wt is not the only true religion.

So an old friend from the hall called me today....
by shakyground inhe said he wanted to know how i was doing and what was going on with me.
i knew that it was only a matter of time before he started asking about me not being to the hall in like 3 months and him trying to bring me back into the fold.
and in about less than a minute he started telling me about how everyone at the hall misses me and asks about me.
