as an apostate, i'm currently compiling a list of changed doctrines and "new light" changes over the years.

this is mainly for discussing with witnesses in the future.

i feel if i don't present full truth of their own doctrine, they will knock me down and rightfully say that i did not give full infomation(hypocrites much?).

i detest this type of posting.

it's only my opinion of course and so long as forum rules aren't breached we're all free to express ourselves as we see fit.

doesn't mean i have to like it though.. honestly, can't you make your point without this kind of infantile name calling?

"Charitable Giving" Brochure

can someone provide me with some information on the names and nature of a brochure by the wt with a name something along the lines of "charitable giving"?

upon learning that a close jw relative was diagnosed with cancer, and possibly on their deathbed, the "friendly neighborhood jw hopital group" showed up, had a lengthy closed-door discussion with him one-on-one (wife couldn't be present), and left a brocure and dvd in the room with a title along the lines of "charitable giving" - i'm sorry, i didn't read the full name before it disappeared.

the 'brothers' (*cough* moneyhounders in sheeps clothing *cough*) had already left this "information" and had "discussions" with him before even the family learned of the situation and had arrived.. am i right in thinking this is a "you're soon-to-be-widow doesn't really need that life insurance money" brochure?

Why Sex??
by PopeOfEruke in
1. social
2. relationships
since being de-borged, i have come to appreciate that the answer to the old blue book "did man get here by evolution or by creation" is probably "evolution".. one thing about evolution which is still hard to explain is why or how did sexual reproduction evolve?

of course now that we have it, i guess most of us would not like to go back to the "old" way, of either dividing ourselves into 2, or else self-fertilizing ourselves from our own 2 sets of sex-organs (ewwww!!!).

i know a lot of men try this anyway but to no avail.......... but what motive force could have existed to actually evolve sexual reproduction in the first place?
