Your "Good Hope" money pledges (1917)
by TJ - iAmCleared2Land inon another thread, we discussed the instruction from the society (surrounding kh financing) to pass around scraps of paper on which the publishers could put "pledges" for planning purposes.
found this today while examing the older mags.
seems this practice isn't new.

If God admitted he had effed it all up and asked for your help ...
by Crumpet inif god existed and came to you and admitted actually he was fallible and a bit of an ego problem but was undergoing therapy to deal with his jealous and violent disposition and was genuinely sorry for making such a mess of the world by insisting on worship of himself, could you forgive him?
.
and if he asked you to be part of a committee to sort out his mess - what would you suggest he started with?

Is there a big "push" going on right now?
by robhic ina couple of jws just left my door.
they started out by trying to give me an invitation to an upcoming convention.. i politely declined and said it was difficult and that i didn't get out much, anyway.
we didn't spend much time talking but i almost felt sorry for the poor man (it was a husband & wife) because he really, really wanted to give away some literature!

Is it easier for a witness (vs Christian) to stop believing in God?
by Guest with Questions ini dont have any statistics but am curious if there could be any truth to it; that it might be easier for a witness to stop believing vs a christian.
i dont see this at any of the churches i have attended; people leaving in droves with some totally discarding any belief.. 1 the jw org is the only truth.
you question its authority, then you question god.

is atheism better than believing in a god who doesnt care?
by theinfamousone inso here's a sincere question... and instead of pressing my frustrations and blaming god and bla bla bla... i decided that instead of writing letters to an inactive god, i would ask your opinion!!!!!.
here's the question, looking at the world around you, seeing all the pain and frustration, the death and disease, the war and hypocricy, the starvation and disgust; generally seeing that our world is falling apart... if someone were able to irrevocably prove that there was a god, an intelligent creator is you will, would you want to worship him?
if he was there and created all of this just to watch it all implode, would you be able to respect that?

by jeanV inthere is a lot of 1914, how jw's (then known as bible studends) anticipated it was a marked year.
