I NEED ADVICE DESPERATELY!!!
by concerned fiance inhere is my situation: my fiance is now 27 years old.
he was raised as a jw from the age of 2 through 18. at that time, his whole family left the "truth" except for his older brother who had already married another woman from the faith.
for the past 9 years, he has been living his life to the fullest, but still loving god, praying often and he is a truly honest and moral person.

The Hypocrisy of the Governing Body
by radar inif the rank and file members of jehovahs witnesses reject the watchtower's thinking on bible doctrine in some way, they are considered apostate.. yet the governing body of j.ws, themselves have rejected teachings of previous governing body members who have long since died and have proceeded to change interpreatation on things many times over,from russell to fred franz.
guess what they call it..........apostasy?.
no, this is called new light.. .

Why JWs and ex JWs Return to Watchtower
by Victor_E inwith recent events of the wtc bombing some ex jws and inactive jws are returning to meetings and all the customary rituals.
some wonder what could drive such individuals to do such irrational acts.
i will outline some of the factors and i admit that it could be one or more or none of these because in the final analysis only the individual person knows why.. fear: as jws we were programmed to have a pervasive fear of a god that was punitive and blood thirsty with his creatures.

People Come Here for a Reason or a Season
by Victor_E inpeople come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.. when you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do.. when someone is in your life for a reason, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly.. they have come to assist you through a difficulty,.
to provide you with guidance and support,.
to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually.. they may seem, like a godsend and they are.. they are there for the reason you need them to be.. then without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person may say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.

GB Split Over Bible vs. Policy
by Maximus inplease read the following brief paragraph carefully: .
"once again, the ruling ecclesiastical class suppressed efforts to make gods word available to their flock.
they violently silenced a voice that pointed to some of the errors of their non-biblical beliefs.

What does the WTBTS have to gain?
by aud8 ini have a question:.
if the wtbts is so into deceiving everyone and trying to reel in as many newcomers as possible, what does it actually have to gain from this?
why are they always trying to switch teachings to make themselves look "believable"?
