Is it too much to ask the "CREATOR" in this technological, scientific age to give us a modern update for his intentions?
by smiddy inis this a fair question to put to jehovah / yahweh or whoever ?
in all sincerity i do not mean any disrespect to any beleivers in the god of the bible, but this is a truly remarkable age with communication advances incomparable with 2000 years ago , if the creator or jesus christ were truly interested in giving everybody the chance of everlasting life , wouldn`t they be giving people the opportunity to hear a more current up to date warning now ?
and not relying on messages in languages that are not in use today and are subject to so many different interpretations ?.

DONT U EVER EVER READ AN ARTICLE BEFORE ITS HEADING AND SOURCE!!!! :; 2
by xtreemlyconfused17 in"it was paul's melding of messianic judaism with the traditional pagan religions that was an astonishing, and disastrous, innovation.
paul never met jesus and didn't bother to see jesus' apostles before starting his own mission to convert the world.
his radical, strange and mystical version of christianity had virtually nothing in common with anything jesus said.

Pre-emptive shunning - a growing reality
by cedars ini'm scanning through some of the results from the 2012 jw survey as they're coming in.. the most populous of the six voting categories with 76 voters so far is my own category, for those who are inactive, or "faded/fading" (not disfellowshipped or da'd, but no longer reporting time on the ministry).. one statistic already leaping out at me surrounds the question "do you experience 'pre-emptive shunning' from active witnesses, who view you as 'bad association'?
" of the 74 who voted on this so far, 76% have answered "yes" to this question.. it's early days, and obviously i will have a clearer picture of the extent of the problem once the survey closes at the end of the year.
however, the results already in suggest that pre-emptive shunning is widespread among inactive ones, despite this not being an "official" policy of the society.. i was interested in your opinions as to why this may be?
