What ever happened too.....
by problemaddict in...the real jw apologists?
not the ones that pop on here and have a go with the athiests, but the ones that defended their posision at least with some form of scholarly notion and education.
you know.... greg stafford (last seen being clearly an apostate....but not getting disfellowshipped for starting another religion.....odd) site abandon for months.. jehovah.to - the haven for the learned with such heavies as hal flemmings, solomon landers, and heinz schmidt.

REACTION from my neck of the woods...
by problemaddict inas some of you may know i am in the midst of a fade, working on the family coming along (new thread to update there).
most mf my close friends are still jw's to varying degrees.
i would say most are couples that are around our age (25-35), and they attend maybe 90% of the meetings, go in service on sat, pioneer in april, and have a couple bible studies etc... in general the good kind.

Funny demon conversation
by problemaddict inminimus inspired me to recall a crazy conversation i had with a houseguest at my home while i was one of jw's and even serving.
i had a houseguest say that she couldn't sleep all night, and then she found a birthday card in her friends room that someone at work gave her innocently enough.
she burned it and said she could finally sleep.. i asked her if she knew how long ago her friends birthday was?

Is this their arguement?
by problemaddict ini have had some "friendly" conversations with people on my coninuing fade journey.
i realize that isn't always wise, but they are all non-related to each other, and we keep it light.
even my brother got in the mix.

Isaiah 2:2,3 Thoughts?
by problemaddict ini thought i would bring this to the horde.
there is wisdom in the multitude of counselors after all.
this scripture has been given to me as "irrefutable", in a discussion i am rather enjoyign with someone fairly high up, that has their doubts.

The NEXT New Light
by problemaddict inso i am pretty sure some long timers here, as well as franz, essentially predicted the next "new light" by simply picking out the inconsistant non-sustainable beliefs that had expiration dates as to freshness.. if i am not mistaken, franz said this was the generation teaching at the time he wrote his book.. so......what do you guys think is next?
seriously..
