Feedback on JWs?
by KAYTEE ina question to everyone.
ebay have an amazing way of following up on a purchase whereby they safeguard the buyer and seller.
feedback is always requested after a transaction.

To Bow or not to Bow - that is the question !
by KAYTEE inat the time that moses delivered the 10 commandments to the nation of israel, they had succumbed to false calf worship.
this not only angered moses, but displeased jehovah.
yet later on we find the same nation, being told to bow down before the copper serpent.

Prohibition or what ?
by KAYTEE inaccording to the wt, the wine is passed around, once a year, to all those who have been "chosen".
they believe that this is a requirement, set out in the holy scriptures and is proof that they are of the anointed class.. has anyone any idea what happened during the time of prohibition in the us, when it was against the law of the land to purchase alcohol?
did they use a substitute?.

Elders: Do as I tell you, whether I'm right or wrong
by KAYTEE inin the last congregation that i frequented, on two separate occasions, and two different elders, i was told to do what they said, whether they were right or wrong!
this brought some ridicule in answer, from my lips.
the elders said to do otherwise is to go against jehovah.

disgusting thing
by KAYTEE inmy son came up with an interesting point.. he mentioned - the now existing dome of the rock, which was built around 691ad, on the original site of mount moriah or was it the temple of jerusalem (not sure) could this be the disgusting thing that is standing in the holy place as the book of daniel predicts.. the 1335 days of the prophecy seem to be interesting as it puts it into our time period 691 + 1335 = 2026ad.
has anyone done any research on this particular subject ?.

Exit from the JWs
by KAYTEE inmy exit from the jws, was roughly as follows-
our final letter to the congregation was in the form of a resignation.
we made at least 15 to 20 copies and sent the majority of them to so-called friends, 2 days later we sent the original to the body of elders.

Cross or a Stake - which was it?
by KAYTEE inwe were always lead to believe, when we belonged to the jws, that jesus died on a "stake".
was this really true or did he die on a cross as all other religions appear to believe.
if it was a cross, what on earth did the jws get out of saying otherwise.

The wisdom of Elders?
by KAYTEE inbefore leaving the org.
i was asking many questions and doing much research to make sure that my decision was justified and fully verified.. when i asked one particular elder about certain teachings in one of the study books, i was told "that's ten years old, that's "old-hat" now".
i was bewildered at this comment, as this elder would be expected to explain and fully justify the organisation's position on all that went on in 1914, and the subsequent years.

Only Jehovah appoints elders ?
by KAYTEE inprior to my resignation from the jws, i heard a taped talk by bro.
kite (appeared to be an american from the bethell) where he spoke about some-one in a communist country joining the org.
and making his way "up the ladder", eventually finishing up as a district overseer.
