I think I was 8 when this happened; I was over at a friends house. Her house was and old farm house out in the sticks of southern michigan. We were playing in

			<description><![CDATA[ I was talking to my aunt the other night, and disfellowshipping came up.  One of my cousins is not a JW and he was in town this past weekend.  He, my JW cousin
who lives upstairs from me, and myself got into a really big discussion/debate about God, JWs, religion, evolution, aliens.... And the next day he went for
breakfast with my JW aunt and my non JW aunt (she used to be a JW).  He was talking to them about disfellowshipping, and asked &#39;if someone was df&#39;d,

tale after tale after tale. They say they are Gods spokesman, that they do his will, that being the case, isn&#39;t God making himself out a liar every time
has to give out new light? Because, what he is telling us is that, &quot;hey, sorry guys, I got it wrong before, but now I have got it right-believe me

			<description><![CDATA[ Chuck Missler, made a terrific point, as did Dr. Webster Tarpley in the Zetgeist Movie, that all societies,no matter who they are, to maintain cohesiveness,
they have to have an enemy figure, and use legalism as a tool to bring people down. Now, legalism, its a bit like the pharisees, whereby, they pushed Gods word
aside for their own laws and teachings, so you dont count, nor does your opinion, there is room for only one opinion on the boat and guess who it belongs to?
legalism is to do with... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I am glad in a way no longer to be chained to the ideas of this movement, or indeed to anything else in this world. JWs say they are Gods channel? Yet, this
God who cannot lie keeps sending out new light on his will, and the Bible says he is a God that doesnt change. As many of you know, and indeed will agree,
their teachings are false, as well as practices on dividing families. Now, even crackpot Robert King has become apologetic in defending the wbts stance on
child abuse, and goes as far... ]]></description>

I&#39;m sure it is this year&#39;s version of the Exorists. Anywho, I am having trouble sleeping at night and I was wondering if any of you could give me your
explanations as to why this stuff is not real. What scientific explanations have proven these theories to be untrue.

			<description><![CDATA[ So we had this guy in our old hall, and I found out recently that he was convicted of a sexual crime of some nature a number of years ago. He goes to the
meetings every Sunday but isn&#39;t baptized, I don&#39;t think he totally agrees with all the JW teachings but likes &quot;having his ears tickled&quot; as
they would say. Anyways, I wanted to know if anyone knows if the elders are legally obligated to inform parents of this fact. The congregation I was in has
MANY small children, and there... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ &quot;Mommy, would you let me die?&quot; - That was a hypothetical question recently asked to me by one of my little ones.
<br>
<br>
I looked at my child confidently and reassured him that I would absolutely do anything within my power to save his life if it was in danger. I felt so good
being able to finally tell this to my own children. I always knew deep down inside, even as a JW, that if I was ever faced with the possibility of loosing one
of my children due to refusing a blood... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Hi,
<br>
<br>
I just disassociated myself after 30 years of servitude.  However, even after having read both of Ray Franz&#39; books I still have some issues as I continue
to read my Bible.  For instance, in 1st Timothy it still speaks of elders and servants and that seeking those offices is a good thing.  This to me implies that
back then, there was an organizational structure, which is not what I&#39;ve come to learn recently.  I agree that there is only One way to God, but Paul was
writing... ]]></description>

dream but if you have put impure thoughts into your head then it is, is that right?
<br>
Dad also said if a boy/man were to continue having them then they must go to the elders (how awful).I asked could someone be disfellowshipped if it continued,
he said it isnt something i need to worry about, im glad he spoke about it though to me, but... ]]></description>
