Undercover, sorry but have to ask: did you put "stop" & "think" preceded by "JW's" all in the same sentence?

"Doomsday May Not Be What You Think" Actually, it's worse...
by undercover inon jw.org they have an awake article posted entitled, doomsday - fact, fiction and fantasy.. they go on to list a few doomsday fears that some people have, namely: supervolcanoes, asteroids, climate change, disease pandemic, extinction of critical species and of course, nuclear war.. each of the preceding fears was given a paragraph or two explaining the impact of such scenerios and the devastation it could bring.. now that they've got us all worried about our bees fleeing our bee hives as the asteroid makes impact on a supervolcano, causing an eruption which warms the earth's climate thus giving rise to deadly diseases...all the while some nut in a third world country has developed a nuclear weapon.... ...they seek to reassure you: doomsday may not be what you think.
oh, well... that's good.
i was starting to worry there for a minute.... what reassurance could these prophets of god give me?.

Another Apr 15 2012 jewel
by d0rkyd00d ini have come back from a 10 year haitus with a renewed vigor, but i'm too short on time now to explain.
when i first posted here, i was a sophomore in high school....it's hilarious to look back at my 2002 posts and see how much i've changed and grown!
anywho, let me dig right in, from page 30..... "one way we can benefit from jehovahs loving direction is through personal study.

So the only difference between jerkovah and the psychic friends network is the paper the fortune is typed on? What about this? If he can see into a persons future for example, and finds a problem, let's sayyyyy.......something has to be done about Marty's kids. Now, before Marty reads a WT publication (in three months) that would've had something "tailored just for him" he'll eat at a Chinese restaurant or pick up one of those Magic 8 Balls off a co-workers desk. The line must be drawn here...so what does god do? Send the message via things that the borg link to spiritism but would be in time for a decision to be made influenced by the message that would help Marty's kids or wait til it gets heavy when nothing can be done but console Marty after the fact while he's sitting in a chair playing guitar............badly?

Our fears and loyalties were manipulated and exploited to make us accomplices in maintaining our own ignorance

Welcome F@L, and if you want more research on swearing check out Andrew Dice Clay, Sam Kinison, Eddie Murphy, Katt Williams or someone who banged their foot on a bed leg. And if you wanna start light check out John Connor swearing 101 in Terminator 2. Oh and sailors apparently swear a bunch too. Youtube Bill O'Riley flips out.....that was good. They remixed it. Have fun and drop the bombs!

JWs perspective is bats--t insane. Anything that has to do with "gods will" is told to us by people with their own agendas. Namely getting rich or as the Oracle said "more power".

Looking at the end of the second Matrix movie is telling to me or maybe I'm grasping at straws but the mirror is uncanny.
"which despite my sincerest efforts I have been unable to eliminate from what is otherwise a
harmony of mathematical precision" the flood and anytime god killed people to show his alledged right to rule."The matrix is older than you know. I prefer counting from the emergence of one integral anomaly to the
emergence of the next, in which case this is the sixth version." 5 armegeddons or "resetting" the earth to it's most basic no frills version."There are only two possible explanations: either no one's told me, or no one knows." Man's life is too short for someone to have survived this resetting and tell present life about it and would also mean no one currently knows.
"Choice. The problem is choice." Because of choice, there will never be any paradise. Paradise is a finished product in one style. The only way to sustain this paradise is if you eliminate the choices that threatens it. Which also eliminates what you could call free will.
"The first matrix I designed was quite naturally perfect, it was a work of art, flawless, sublime. A triumph equaled
only by its monumental failure. The inevitability of its doom is as apparent to me now as a consequence of the imperfection
inherent in every human being" It's not sin. Sin is only told and defined to us by other people based on what they will and won't accept. At it's core, it is a decision or a choice that we make.This is the imperfection."99.9% of all test subjects accepted the program, as long as they were given a choice, even if they were only aware of the choice at a near unconscious level. While this answer functioned, it was obviously fundamentally flawed, thus creating the otherwise contradictory systemic anomaly" It's our choices that distinguishes us from machines. If god wanted us to blindly walk around just doing what "he said" it would appear that neither we (Adam & Eve) or the angels are okay with that.
The Architect - "The function of the One is now to return to the source, allowing a temporary dissemination of the code you carry, reinserting the prime program. After which you will be required to select from the matrix 23 individuals, 16 female, 7 male, to rebuild Zion. Failure to comply with this process will result in a cataclysmic system crash killing everyone connected to the matrix, which coupled with the extermination of Zion will ultimately result in the extinction of the entire human race."
Neo - "You won't let it happen, you can't. You need human beings to survive."
The Architect - "There are levels of survival we are prepared to accept." Man's choices leading to their destruction and god accepting iteven if it meant there'd be no one left to think, form, or create than god. He's ready to accept that. The only ones who aren't seems to be us humans, as we are limited to time. So we, in denial about god's inaction, MAKE UP that he's doing something in order to make ourselves feel better. That's why inspirational music is so inspirational. It talks in future tense. He will, he is, he'll never. Meanwhile we don't have any irrefutable proof. Any thoughts? Just something I thought about while reading another post on here talking a sec about the first Matrix movie. -

Anything that you tell them will also be used by the requester to reaffirm their beliefs. "oh you don't come because you don't want to? or your job has you busy?" Men will be lovers of themselves rather than lovers of god. I'm considering, the next time a dub starts in with me as to why this or that, just not saying anything and look at them like we've been through this before. Maybe if the room is quiet instead of me rebuttaling their asinine statement, they'll actually pause and say, "did I really say something that dumb?" Couldn't hurt right?
If on my journey I should encounter god, then god will be cut.

jerkovah is a perfect f*ckup..........
by Vachi 8 He Is inhe watched satan watching adam and eve and him being able to read hearts knew jealousy was building within him, did he do anything?
nope.
inaction is an action within itself.

.....and then he says "Need a tissue"! Lol I gotta tell you I almost died laughing. Classic, but not really. That's your good 'ol red herring but I'll bite. You caught me in a good mood. Genepool? Really? Whiskey, you put some Cracker Barrel cheese or other perishable foods in a warm and moist place, over time what happens? Bacteria festers and grows into what we call mold. Humans can reproduce, we're supposed to. god doesn't have his finger on the button saying who's born and who isn't. But yeah, too bad he let ME in huh? And your reason for saying this is what? Ah because I questioned his motives? Questioning him in fact at least in your estimation. Make no mistake, I don't apologize where no apology is needed, least of all to a lazy, invisible slumlord of a deity. If on my journey I should encounter god, then god will be cut.

and he gets in the way, or at least he has. He watched satan watching Adam and Eve and him being able to read hearts KNEW jealousy was building within him, did he do anything? Nope. Inaction is an action within itself. He puts a tree down on Earth and says "don't eat". The tree being perfect I have to ask if that tree was any more perfect than any other perfect tree in looks? I mean for Eve to look at it and see "that it was desirable to look upon" it would have to look more special than the other trees, or else she'd be looking at your average run-of-the-mill perfect tree. If the tree absolutely had to be there why didn't god put it in some obscure, bothersome to get to area? Like growing out of the side of a cliff for example. If that wasn't possible then, if it were me, I would've made the tree bear fruit that looked, from a human standpoint, ugly. It would have been a perfectly flawed tree one that A&E would look at and go "Shi- I ain't eatin' that" and that way they would've, or at least stand a better chance in "obeying" jerkovah.
He helps in the birthing of animosity between Cain and Abel by ignoring Cain's efforts and praising Abel's.
He scrambles the languages at Babel effectively making the "preaching work" that much harder. He kills Lot's wife because she turns to LOOK at Soddom & Gommorah's destruction. Even if she ditched Lot and ran back, what could she REALLY go back to? The place was leveled.
He causes she-bears to attack a group of people because they stated the obvious that a prophet was bald and he was going up on the mountain. Yes it may have been teasing the prophet but he was in fact bald and was going up on a mountain.
Even now, the hiding of the date of Armeggedon, what for? What could possibly happen if we knew the date? Yes some people would go and do what they wanted til the time came but god supposedly can read hearts. Wouldn't he be able to weed through the ones who did it just to be saved from the ones who did it because they came around truthfully to righteousness? Any thoughts? -

Exactly Cameo. They put their own targets on their backs for all this "persecution". How much better would my life in school been had I just been there with no ties to this cult? None of this "you can't cuss, you aren't allowed to fight, you can't do holidays" from peers and teachers who tried to let me in on some freekin' fun by creating loopholes. I may not be sure of many things but one thing I am sure of is: god needs to get punched in the throat.
