Reply to Redhorsewoman on prayer.
by spectromize inhi redhw,.
i've been having a few problems with my computer so anyways i thought i'd reply to you in a new thread.. you said:" spectromize, i disagree with your assertion that because someone is not a jw, their prayers must therefore be answered by satan.".
i never asserted or even said that.

I Need advice on Women.
by spectromize inokay, here is a few questions concerning women that i would like a little help with.. supposing your trying to get some lady's attention because your interested in her, what is a good approach without sounding to cheesy?
.
another question is how do you know and what are the indications that the girl is taking interest in you, and what are the indications she wants you to take a hike?

Unevenly Choked
by RedhorseWoman inhe hit you, and your parents think all you need to resolve are spiritual matters?
run.....really fast.. what this brother did was to assault you.
you would be well within your rights to charge him with that.. one of my friends married a brother who seemed absolutely wonderful.....a little tempermental, but his father was an elder and he was well thought of in the congregation.

What about new light?
by spectromize ini just wanted to ask a question concerning the expression," new light," whenever the brothers and sisters are talking and when we suddenly see a new point in the watchtower or a new teaching from the society as far as our beliefs such as the change in doctrine like the generation teaching.
is it really accurate to say new light or just plain and simple error ?.
you see i grew up as a catholic and before i became a witness we considered our church and the pope as god's representative.

My Journey
by Frenchy ini suppose we all think of ourselves as unique and we are in so many ways.
what i fail to realize, i guess, is that we are far more alike than unique.
every now and then i will reveal some little fear or quirk or dream that i have only to find out that someone else has experienced the same thing!

Writing private letters to the Society.
by spectromize infor anyone who's ever written something of a private nature or asked clarification on certain beliefs have you ever had the unfortunate experience of the elders calling you in the back room or a sheperding call ?.
the reason i bring this out is that newer brothers or sisters don't know that everytime you write the society the society sends a copy of your letter to your local cong.
elders.

Why are people 'Bad' ?
by Caliban inas far as i see it, people are bad / evil (call it what you will) because of two possible things:.
1. they are genetically that way.
they are born like that.. 2. the way they have been brought up has made them that way.. either way, the influences are out of their control.

To wait or not to wait?
by Frenchy inokay, this need not necessarily be controversial but i would like some honest opinions on the matter.
from time to time (in last sundays wt lesson for example) i read in the magazines or hear brothers say this in their talks.
(with some variation) arent we grateful that jehovah has waited this long before loosing armageddon on mankind?
