For those who became JWs as adults...
by Sara Annie inbefore i begin, it would probably be helpful for me to (in a nutshell) explain that i am not currently, nor have i ever been, one of jehovah's witnesses.
my experience with the organization is peripheral in that my extended family became heavily involved several years ago.
in maintaining a relationship with that part of the family, i had relatively extensive dealings with the jws (for a "worldly" person) for many years of my childhood and beyond (if you're at all interested, you can read the details of my experience here: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/7/44589/626056/post.ashx#626056).

I went to the Assembly....
by teenyuck ini was at home and a man came to the door...i knew immediately he was a jw brother, however, he was quite handsome (no offense) and very well built.
he looked like a cross between brad pitt/tom cruise/evan marriott.... he wore a very nice dark gray suit that formed perfectly to his sculpted muscles...he had a very nice book bag.
black, brushed silver hardware.

New Date for Armageddon?
by NeonMadman ini had an interesting chat with a jw on yahoo messenger yesterday.
of course, he was using "theocratic war strategy," at least at first, and pretended not to be a jw, but someone who was asking a lot of questions about them.
he opened the conversation by asking if i wanted to discuss 'the meaning of life'.

Creation of the Earth...
by Aaron2 inhere's somthing that i've been trying to get feed back on.... well, here's what i believe...i thought it might be interesting to some of you... .
in my church (the church of jesus christ of latter day saints, nickname mormons), we believe that the creation was done by jehova (aka the pre-jesus christ).
we do not believe in the docrtine of trinity as most other religions do, namely that god the father, jesus christ and the holy ghost are 1 person, with just three different roles.
