  ok, so if you haven't as yet watched the new cartoon clip on the website, be prepared to throw up!.

  it is called "jehovah loves all sorts of people", and features an awful song about how "jehovah loves everyone" even "different colors", etc....yep...they actually say that!.

  huh??????.

  There is a difference between "all sorts of people" and "everyone." I don't think they imply that he loves everyone.

  Congregation had to relocate Memorial...thanks to me

  by Shepherd Book in

  2. experiences

  so, the two local congregations were planning to hold their memorial together at 7:30 at the local community center, but they had to make a last-minute change to their own hall, and i'm pretty sure it was because of me.. let me explain.... at work on monday afternoon, a co-worker returned from her lunchbreak and showed me the memorial invitation that was waiitng in her door when she went home for lunch.

  i noticed the sticker on the back indicated the memorial was being held, not at the local hall, but at the community center.

  from a past (non-jw) event i attended there, i knew they didn't allow alcohol (unless you pay for security guards), so i wrote to the center's coordinator:.

  Why people don't believe in God

  by pressman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  do you want to know why i think people don't believe in god?

  well i believe people don't want to believe in god because they are scared.

  they know that if they finally do gorge the confidence to believe in him, he might discipline them for their skepticism.

  I really tried to believe in god, I really did. But in the end the closest I can get is to call myself agnostic.

  Active posters: What education have you had, what degrees do you possess?

  by EndofMysteries in

  2. friends

  from so many posts and conversations on here, you'd think over 1/2 the posters here possess doctorates in theology, physics, biology, etc.

  i'm curious aside from the books and research people have done here, what degrees they have.

  to start, i just got an aa and going straight through full time to an mba.

  Also, just to be clear, I finished my degree and received my CPA when I was very near the age of 50. You are never to old to get a good education.

  she passed faithful to the end to them!

  by jookbeard in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  just found out (second hand of course) and by someone on here that my faithful jw mum passed away within the last couple of days, dont know the exact day, and what cause, she spent the last few years living with my fanatical sister, she was 65 and survived my father by 10 years, bitter, angry and hateful till the end and never as so much enquired or asked how her 2 grandchildren ever were , they are 5 and 7!

  feeling a mixture of emotions right now, they were lousy parents in all honesty, she suffered health wise so maybe its for the best, dont even know when the funeral is!

  I was born and raised in a religious environment. I went to religious services several times a week and was forced to knock on doors to proclaim my religious believes to strangers. I was also unhappy, unsure of myself and my abilities, and scared that I would suffer a horrific death at the pending event of the great tribulation.

  So forgive me if I disagree with the article.
