  WW1 seems so long ago. I think that Lett is on to something. Let's blame it on the dead people.

  thanks cappytan for posting the thread "jehovah's people as a whole can never be corrupted".

  it's a sad example of how low in simple reading skills the present gb and their helpers are.

  david schafer referred to philippians 4:7 on jw broadcasting.

  Good catch, I noticed the same thing...

  But he said it with such a sense of intellectual superiority that you can't help but be impressed.

  Wow, that was the most boring talk - ever. That guy was filled with such self-importance that it was unwatchable.

  Phone call from a brother last night

  by label licker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the brother and his wife thought the statement at the end of this month's broad cast show was a little off.

  the org stated that jehovah's organisation can not be corrupted.

  (needless to say only three had shown up for the broadcast meeting at the hall) he's never heard that before so we filled him in as to what the org has been up to and gave him jwnet, jw facts as well as jw survey to look at.

  Needless to say only three had shown up for the broadcast meeting at the hall

  Can you clarify what these broadcast meetings are? Are these special meetings where the congregation is supposed to come to the hall and listen to a JW.tv broadcast? And... only 3 showed up! Am I missing something or should I say "WOW!"

  I was once criticized because my field service book bag was not heavy enough (i.e. not enough books). I guess both of us did not realize we are (or were) in a sales organization.

  Question for atheists and nonbelievers

  by pressman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i profess to teach the truth to you all and get you to all to think and believe.

  believing in christ through his words and not through evil religious cults, like hoj and jw, can and will save you.

  do you all realize that every time you are victorious and receive something of value through your hard work and sweat, it was our holy god who blessed you.

  It was hard to find a question in that that is answerable.

  You comment: "And the truth is that when you got your gift or anything good that happened in your life, our Yahweh has blessed you out of his love for you" seems is a bit out there. I think it boarders on extreme.

  Do you really believe that "anything" that is good is a gift from god???? Really? So, If I don't believe in god, why is my life pretty good? And how about those good Christians who have a pretty crappy life? Is god punishing them?

  I really tried to believe in god, I really did. But I just can't.

  Praying in Public?

  by Garrett in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hellloooo fellow apostates, mentally diseased devil worshippers :) how is everyone?.

  today, i listened to a song about praying and how one can pray anywhere.

  well, this song brought back the horror of sitting in restaurants, mcdonalds, coffee shops etc and having a group of brothers and sister bow their head and pray for what seemed to be an eternity.

  I was in a restaurant with my Nigerian friend. He asked if he could pray when our food arrived, I agreed and he said a prayer. It was quite nice and I was not at all self-conscious about this display of faith.

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i know of the local congregation's issues, per an elder i know quite well.

  he has said that nearly everyone in the congregation is suffering emotionally and mentally.

  he said he has never seen so many witnesses with so many problems.

  They are happy because they are told to be happy.
