  So what caused you to have doubts in the first place?

  by nicolaou in

  2. friends

  i had no doubts at all about the 'truth' untill a friend of mine in the cong' began falling away.

  in trying to help him i had to ask questions and do research and that of course cracked the doors of my mind open for the first time in over thirty years.. years ago, when jwd allowed members to have signatures, i used the following quote from voltaire as mine.

  i still love it.. doubt is uncomfortable, certainty is ridiculous..

  When they told me that 'Holy Spirit' appointed me as an 'Elder'! Right there I knew something was wrong!

  Long last letter to dad...please comment-not mailed yet

  by dawg in

  dad, .

  i doubt youll even read this letter since it comes from your son, a son youve abandoned over your religious views, but i wanted to write you one final letter to see if theres any hope that you can come to your senses as far as this religion goes and we can renew our relationship.

  im doing this because i care for you and mom deeply and feel very much distressed that you two refuse to see anyones opinion as being factual other than your own when it concerns the jw religion.

  If the letter does get returned, just save it. I predict in time he will want to read it, and then it will be available.

  Why Jehovah Witnesses teach a more biblical faith

  by tralon in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  surprizeingly, i am not a jw but an observer and in partial agreement with the jehovah witnesses on many issues.

  i have been to many churches in my 30 years and have studied many church beliefs, church history and the bible as well.

  so why do i believe the jehovah witnesses are the one true faith of jehovah god?.

  Sleeping your life away?

  by sweetface2233 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  "life is too short", "carpe diem", "eat, drink, and be merry...", "never put off till tomorrow..." we have all heard these phrases, taken them to heart, and burned ourselves out on the stress from them.

  i say...screw that shite!

  the only thing keeping me from jumping out the window of my 6th story apt or driving my car into the back of one of the metro buses on the beltway is knowing that, if one of those actions do take place, i won't be able to nap that afternoon.

  One ex-JW friend once asked me, 'Now who has really done the most for the black man, the Rev. Martin Luther King or the Watchtower Society'?

  We both laughed, for the answer was obvious!
