Why are JW talks & publications never uplifting?
by thedepressedsoul ini was sitting at the meeting the other night and for the first time it hit, jw talks or magazines are never uplifting!
i rarely, if ever hear a talk or read a magazines and have it give nothing but praise to jehovahs servants or just praise jehovah and jesus throughout it.
they never just a read through the bible or just a bible story explained or told.

I thought I'd write how doomed I am
by andrekish ini thought i'd write a poem, like,to prove how doomed i am.i do not see the world like you.oh poo, that's me kerbammed.they say that god is gonna wipe usfrom the face of earth.they say we're damned and off to hell.if we treat this with mirth.what was the point of making thisentire universeif all god does is wipe us outa moment after birth?us humans are as mad as hell,we're bonkers through and through.and now a bible's in our hands,uh oh, please look out you.it's unexploded, not gone off yetit's ticking just for us.we'll bring it round now to your placeand really make a fuss.if you ignore our knock at doorand do not let us in.we'll have to quote this book at you'coz you've committed sin.it says so in this book here, look.that prove's the end's begun.from chapter one to final page.oh what a lot of fun.if you don't get down on your knees and worship god with mei'll get upset and write a blog so everyone can see.and then, i'll say, on blog todaythat you're extremely doomed.we're going down the pan you know.a pan with lots of rooms.we really don't need other mento tell how bad we are.
if we don't put the brakes on thiswe all know what must follow.consuming everything in sightand munching through the earth.will kill all life here anywayon this place of our birth.so why would god then intervene and kill us in despairwhen we can do it anyway?no help is needed there.that's not what this is all about.god only means the best.do unto others, etcetra,then god can do the rest.he don't want you to be a slavejust upright noble man.he isn't out to dominate.that isn't in the plan.so what he's done is give you lifehere in this pile of pooso you can see here for yourselfthe best that you could do.and here we see what happens whenwe go and fekk it up.we drink the juices of our filthand that's a bitter cup.so cry and moan and say no godhow dare he treat us thus?to go and let our children dieand hide away from us.but is there here, on earth, a bookthat does explain it all?that tells us how we could behaveand how to have a ball.if god is just then future times will have to recompensewith all the tears wiped from our eyes.it's what makes loving sense.if god is love then from abovesomething will soon be sentto end this mess and repossessthe planet from us men.then raise us up, just recreatethe dna that's man.so up we pop and on we walkto learn what can be done.when man in harmony with allthat's just and strong and wisecan walk forever, head held high,with god clear in his eyes.god says he will reveal himselfso there can be no doubt.it simply hasn't happened yetare we allowed to shout?we're hanging on by skin of teethin all this misery.but i'm impatient, hurry pleaseoh god, i want to see.if i am doomed for writing thisif these words drag me downthen god is not the god of loveand i am not his man.. .
i do go on a bit, eh?.

Do current JWs like to have Bible discussions?
by Magnum inon another thread rufus t. firefly made this interesting comment:.
my wife is a "zealous" regular pioneer who never talks about the bible or "the truth" and who has no interest in conducting a bible study with anyone.
this is how one remains a jw.. i decided to start a new thread to discuss this, since i didn't want to veer completely off the topic of the original thread.. i can relate to what rufus said - not concerning my wife, but other close jw family members.

How would you respond to this defense made on behalf of The Watchtower's Child Abuse lawsuits?
by adjusted knowledge indetails of the society's child abuse policies have been published in jehovah's witnesses' publications, although more specific guidelines are only made available to elders, or on request.
press releases issued by the watch tower society's office of public information confirm that if a person accused of molestation repeatedly denies the charges of his victim, and there is no other witness to the incident, "the elders cannot take action within the congregation at that time", but would report to authorities if required by local laws.
our families jehovahs witnesses and child protection.

Why I Love Christmas
by andrekish ini love celebrating something with goodness at its' true core, even christmas.
some would condemn me for this but that is their concern, not mine.. i think satan is real and i think father christmas and santa claus are like satan's claws at this time of year 'coz we all go bonkers and buy everything in site and overdo things totally.
but that's not christmas to me.

Looking back to what happened since sept 2012... i must say its brilliant !
by insidetheKH inwho thought in the early months of 2012 that such a rebranding would take place in only a matter of 24 months?.
they managed to go from an antique looking and boring website (watchtower.org) with hardly any attractive content to go to a fresh looking new website with stuff for everyone, families, children, teenagers.. movies, and short videos about almost everything and new ones added every month.
cartoons, animation video's , interviews, picture activities all kind of projects, many audio files like dramatic bible readings, dramas and music, online research tools, new brochures for kids (off and online) etc.

How to Wear a Pinkie Ring, by Stephen Lett, Governing Body Member
by Oubliette inalways the fashionista amongst the governing body members, mr. stephen lett recently showed us how even an older man can display a certain swagger, a certain je nesais quoi that says, "i'm one of the anointed, and you're not!".
he does this in so many ways, but the one i want to draw our attention to is the way he rocked the theocratic fashion world with his wearing of a very manly pinkie ring in a recent wtbts video.. - -.
