JWs are Quasi-prophets. The best of both worlds!
by Londo111 inout of curiosity, i was taking a look at jw defenses email channel, in the discussion section.. one poster said: that article read in context is saying that the churches failed their privilege of being a prophet of god.
but jehovah's witnesses didn't.
if the 1972 wt is read with context then we can realize jw's are the prophet of god and not christendom, they had their chance.. jw defense says: keep in mind that in that article, when the word 'prophet' is used in reference to the witnesses, its always in quotations.

I need help in dealing with a toxic family member!!!!
by hoser ini have a close family member who is a pro in using shame to try to make me feel bad.
they are coming to stay at my place soon and the issue of me and mrs hoser not attending/ doing field service will come up no doubt.. i need some advice on how to deal with this because whenever i deal with these relatives they make me feel worthless.
it is probably part because they are jw's and jw's motivate by fear and guilt.. .

I think my fade has hit a rut. Do I need to grow a pair?
by konceptual99 inso here i am after about 18 months of wake up.
the first 6 months were a rollercoster of feelings as my whole belief system unravelled.
the last year has been more stable but things seem like they are just stalling now.. my wife is aware of many of my feelings although i have held back the fact that i am pretty close to denying all belief in any kind of god.

WRITING COMMITTEE - ARE YOU SERIOUS?????
by The Searcher ineven john mcenroe would be justified in shouting at them "you cannot be serious,men!!"..
in paragraphs 9 & 12 of the study article for tomorrow, (nov. 15th 2013 watchtower) they prove to the world that what they write and present as god-given truth, is nothing more than the guesswork and speculation from a few men whose lifestyle depends on their subservient direction from the gb, to come up with spiritual sound-bytes which will keep the sheep in anticipation of the time which jesus said was none of their business!!
(acts 1:7).

by wafflesandpancakes induring our engagement, we fooled around and touch each other down there.
it's not a "tap" but definitely is not "stimulation".
i tried to convince my wife, who, after 5 years of marriage, strangely felt guilty all the sudden, that its not do called porneia.
