  Tying Your Shoes With Modesty and Soundness of Mind

  by Franklin Massey in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the lack of intellectually stimulating material within the jw religion right now is astounding.

  there is clearly a lack of spiritually dense material and a surplus of ridiculous, childish babble.

  the regular "food" that jws are being fed is illustratively equivalent to pureed baby food.

  More weird JW FB conversation

  by serenitynow! in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  sometimes the things they talk about are so unrealistic.

  this person had everyone list occupations/industries that would cease to exist in the paradise.

  it's interesting how they think that everyone is going to turn into a carpenter, builder, farmer, etc.

  The Generation(s) That Wasted Their Lives

  by undercover in

  2. friends

  growing up as a jw, you see the world differently than most everyone else.

  you see the world as something that is going to end very soon.

  all that we know will be gone by the time we're adults.. when we were young, we were living in the last days and were expecting armageddon before we grew old.

  Worldy opposition is interpreted as confirmation of the truth

  by MrMonroe in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  interesting comment on the talk page of the wikipedia article on the governing body here:.

  one dopey jw (wandering-teacher) who complained that the article was "biased" against the jws was supported in a comment by another assumed jw (galik) who whined that the article was "peppered with quotes from known opposers of jehovah's witnesses in order to use this article as a propaganda vehicle".. wandering-teacher replied: "thanks for the support, galik.

  the difficulty of having a neutral point of view in the ... article strengthens my faith that i have made the correct religious choice for me.".

  Did Jeremiah refute the validity of the Mosaic/Levitical Law?

  by doubtful in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  now that i no longer view the bible as one big harmonious collection of inspired works, i find myself asking some interesting questions.

  one question that appears to have not yet been addressed on this board is the issue of whether or not the prophet jeremiah endorsed the law.

  a couple of things he said would seem to indicate that whatever was passed off as the law covenant in his day, was not something he felt to have been divinely inspired.

  THE FLOOD - What's Jehovah's problem now?

  by sizemik in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this question has been bugging me for a while now .

  since the last thread on the biblical flood.. it's like this .

  .. immediately prior to the flood, jehovah had deemed the earth full of badness, totally wicked and "ruined" .
