BLOOD MOON and
by NAVYTOWN inhad anyone heard any jws talk about the fact that a blood moon lunar eclipse is going to happen on the night of the memorial?
i can't imagine that at least some witnesses aren't saying this event is a biblical 'sign' that amageddon is getting very close.
there will be four blood moons between now and fall 2015.....a very rare celestial happening.

Deuteronomy 22:28,29. Thank Jebus nobody pays attention to this f*cked up part of "God's inspired word" any more.
by DuvanMuvan in28 if a man happens to meet a virgin girl who is not engaged and he seizes her and lies down with her and they are discovered,+29 the man who lay down with her must give the girls father 50 silver shekels, and she will become his wife.+ because he humiliated her, he will not be allowed to divorce her as long as he lives.

was just on the thread about lot and his messed up family life and was reminded of another part of the bible that made me feel physically sick the first time i read it.

Island man i've heard that can happen too but for obvious reasons i'm no expert.
I'm just shocked at how i could ever think that these were god's people. Whoever wrote this book is sick.

Is this new donation arrangement for real?
by nugget injust read a post on jwsurvey about the new donation arrangement.
congregations are to pledge a monthly amount to be sent to the society to fund the building of assembly halls and kingdom halls.
congregations who already have a loan from the society will no longer have to pay back the loan but the amount pledged should not be less than the current monthly repayments to the society.

DD i think i remember reading on the online library in some publication where they try to justify Lot offering his daughters to those men. The way they put it was (pretty much) "Lot wanted to protect the angels so badly that he even tried to offer his virgin daughters to the men." and they list a number of reasons for why he might have been a complete ass-wipe

Are JW'S "hated" in all the world? Or...are they considered IRRELEVANT?
by Terry inwathctower 90/1/1 p. 12 par.
8 not ashamed of the good news .
while it is true that jehovahs witnesses are hated and opposed in all the nations of the earth, this is in fulfillment of what was foretold to be an identifying mark of genuine worshipers of the one living and true god.

woah what? they count inactive and disfellowshipped people?
are they trying to fudge the numbers so people will think they're more important than they actually are?

Active JW's, can you defend "THE TRUTH?"
by DATA-DOG inas of yet, no member of the jehovah's witness faith can defend their unique beliefs.
when the dust settles, it all comes down to blind faith in men's ever-changing ideas.
this "unique belief" was not a "true teaching of the bible.

they say that everyone hates them so that the dubs don't feel bad for hating "worldy" people.
But in the real world most people don't know who they are or what the fudge they're doing knocking on doors every week.
