  Question: Is JW religion the most attacked one?

  by Da.Furious in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was having a chat with an elder and couple of friends regarding apostates and how to protect ourselves and funnily how to identify them!.

  during the discussion the elder mentioned: jehovah's witnesses is most attacked religion in the world.

  there are no other religions that are under the spotlight.

  Suggest to them: Google 'hell' or 'loving god hell'. For me, that is probably the most debunked, attacked and mocked Christian doctrine of all.
  Mostly all of the general atheist Youtube videos, from what I've seen, refer to hell rather than any Armageddon.
  And, just think, it's 'Christendom' that spread that fear of 'the Lord' and hellfire throughout the earth whilst Jehovah was on a nearly 1800 year tea-break from telling anybody anything. (!)
  
  All of the hatred, attacks and vitriol towards the Christian religion, as expressed for nearly 1800 years, (from when Revelation was supposedly completed up until the first Watchtower produced) was not built up by a little sect that didn't even exist.
  Even on purely theological grounds, the internet is full of articles debunking Jesus as God, and the hellfire teaching itself.. Not about JW's, who teach neither of them.
  
  Even if JW's were universally hated by all non-Christians today, they'd still have a helluva lot of catching up to do.

  If you don't believe in God, Jesus, and everything in the Bible, you are willfully ignorant.

  Introduction to some basic lines of evidence for evolution:

  ...
  Evidence for the Bible being inspired by a divine being...
  I can't see ANY evidence whatsoever, of it being anything other than a contradictory book of myths and legends with a little history thrown in, so I'll hand over to bioflex ;)

  Active JW's, can you defend "THE TRUTH?"

  by DATA-DOG in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as 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.

  Rhodesboy:"This forum is mostly about grievances"
  What do you mean by grievances? People complaining about their problems, or criticising the Watchtower and the Bible? At least explain what you mean by that. Be specific..
  ..
  Rhodesboy's pm buddy:
  "And you will notice, no specifics, just generalized negativity and hate"
  Trust me, I don't care enough about your waffling to have any hate. Typical persecution complex. Your writing basically said nothing of worth, just that a, b ,c , d, e , f may possibly happen, if l, m, or n decide to do x, y or z.
  Not sure why you thought that your list of guesses was worth starting a topic for. But as you mentioned, you like the publicity..
  
  Further, I was VERY specific.
  I specifically pointed out that your predictions were unspecific. ;)

  Ablebodiedman said in response to one of my questions:
  
  "on the other hand:
  [Isaiah29:20]
  20 because the tyrant must reach his end, and the bragger must come to his finish, and all those keeping alert to do harm must be cut off,
  21 those bringing a man into sin by [his] word, and those who lay bait even for the one reproving in the gate, and those who push aside the righteous one with empty arguments."
  
  Was that directed at me? Ok then, that's fine.
  No more empty arguments from me, I'm a bit nervous about what part of me will be 'cut off'. ;)
