  Irony of "Rebellious" Youth

  by Pathofthorns in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've found it quite interesting talking to several young ones who lead double lives.

  the sad thing is, i don't find these ones so wicked.

  i find them basically good kids who got a little messed up because no one had any time for them, or attempts to relate were rather lame.. the irony is that while talking to one while he was smoking a cigarette, out of nowhere he says, "but i still believe its the truth".

  Demonised Smurf Doll

  by CrazyArms in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is anyone out there familiar with the now almost legendery jw "true" story about the demon possessed smurf doll that got up and stormed out of the watchtower study screaming "that's a load of crap" in response to an answer to a question being given by a brother concerning the final destruction of satan?

  i'm also interested to learn of any similar incidences.

  What is the WT afraid of???????????????????

  by Zep in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ok, since it was so easy to get on here i'm assuming that this place is also over run by wts critics...but anyway!.

  i've read a plenty of wt mags and got sucked in enough by the whole thing to go to a few meetings and do a bible study( which i wouldn't really call a study, since we just read one of their books).i soon broke of the whole thing and didn't even read another mag for about 6 years...6 months ago i wandered into h20 out of curiosity and ended up reading up on the arguments against the wts.. i have a simple question, and its probably very naive to ask this...but why is wts so afraid of debate?...there are plenty of sites arguing against the wts...but none for, apart the official site which doesn't address the issues raised by so called "apostates" anyway.. if the wt has the the truth why dont they just refute the the arguments against them instead of shutting up shop and labelling anyone who questions them an "apostate?

  " or from satan or something.. i'm really beginning to think that all this wt business is just waste of time, that if i were to go to kh and ask questions that i have, i'm more likely to be labelled a trouble making agent of satan rather than be taken at face value as someone with serious questions.

  I Write Some Poetry Myself

  by marion_nett in

  2. entertainment

  i've enjoyed frenchy's poems so much, i thought since this forum seems to have hit a lull, i might share one that i wrote several years ago when my 17 year old son left home (and the "truth") - and broke my heart.. he is a very bright and introspective young man, a poet heavily into dylan, lennon, and all those anti-establishment heroes of oddly enough my generation.

  minstrel song.

  where are you now, o minstrel son -.

  A Request

  by Friend in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  lately i have spent some time responding to various subjects on this forum.

  at this time it seems a bit necessary that i address something about myself in the hopes that it will clear up some misunderstandings.

  first of all, i am not a defender of the watch tower bible & tract society.

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is it possible to do all that is required as a witness?

  if one were to put down on paper all that is required to carry out, both with secular work and a good spiritual routine, is it even possible to do all that one is "supposed" to do?.

  a basic routine includes:.
