Tearing down of a mainstream church's doctrines by my BStudy friend , and later, I convinced myself that these guys couldn't be lying- what would they have to gain? Didn't have access to TTAT or JW Facts or freminds.org etc. Got to these sites after the convention in 2007.

Question for those converted to JW as adults
by DaleRivers inwhy did you become a jw, what particular teachings attracted you to 'the truth' ?.
.
in my case (baptized at 20/21) it was the only religion i knew; my mom, her mom, and favorite sister were jw; and the teachings of no hellfire or immortal soul made sense to me.. .

A few questions for believers
by keyser soze inwhen confronted with all of the inconsistencies and atrocities of the bible, many believers invariably claim that they don't base their faith in christ on what's written in the bible.
so what is the basis then, if not scripture?.
and please don't tell me "the lord has revealed himself to me".

A movie on what exactly transpires at "Armageddon" with special effects.
How about" The Day After Armageddon". Resurrection en masse,with brothers and sisters shaking off the dust, folding hands and falling to their knees in prayer to The GB- Butt Naked !

The Finished Mystery on Amazon Kindle for 99 cents
by airborne ini learned yesterday that the finished mystery (studies in the scriptures vii) by charles taze russell and published posthumously in 1918 is now available on amazon kindle for 99 cents.
this is the quality spiritual food that the governing body claims is the basis for jesus appointing it as the faithful and discreet slave in 1919 according to peter gregerson in his talk on youtube.. from what i understand there are some really fantastical claims and ideas in it.
there is no way they are appointed by god if this is the basis for the appointment.

Jehovah's INEFFECTIVE Witness...(Why no TV ministry???)
by Terry inwhat if i asserted the following as true?
the watchtower bible and tract society has no interest in an effective evangelical program of conversion.. would that sound silly?
disfellowshipping would lead to having a big target placed on the ex jw's back at armageddon.. .

Thank you Atlantis. I was wondering if the WT had published an article on condemning Tele-evangelists and... You nailed it. Looks like every time they come up with something new, they are contradicting themselves- to make themselves look like what they actually are...asses!

The Gentile times have ended; their kings have had their day.
by Londo111 indear jw,.
on october 2, 1914a hundred years ago todaycharles t. russell announced, the gentile times have ended; their kings have had their day.
for almost 40 years, among other predictions for that year, 1914 had been looked to as the end of armageddon, false religion, and all governments, and the beginning of paradise on earth and the resurrection.

Three Types of People and Their Destinies!
by Kalos in[christiansincluding jwstried very hard with their evangelism among the hindus, but did not accomplish much.
because the hindus are in possession of something better.
the actual name of hindus is sanatana dharma (eternal duty) which is defined as taking delight in the welfare of all beings (bhagavat gita 12:4, 20) hindus (which literally means those who live by the sides of indus river) is a superficial and geographical name given to them later.

There are 3 types of things? people? And we are to digest this? Coming from a religion, which, condones live bride burning at the pyre of her dead husband? As recent as 1987 ( Roop Kanwar case). And, arguably, which still takes place sporadically, in secret pockets of Rajasthan?
The same religion that brought about the caste system and untouchability? For hundreds -if not thousands- of years ,ISIS like, where the upper castes exploited the Vaishias/Sudhras stripping them of all dignity indeed humanity; where their women and children were raped and buggered, enslaved for generations, beaten , kicked , spat upon ,made to lick spit from the ground, and murdered simply because one was born from the " mouth/forehead of Brahma, while the other from his toes ( or ass if you get my meaning.) ? And you are quoting scriptures from that to help educate ex-JW's that they are who they are because of their "Sanskar"? What are you really trying to indoctrinate people with? Predestination?
The same shitty book that has adherents like the bigoted Hindus butcher Modi, the recently elected PM of India? Remember his slaughter of 900 odd innocent Muslims in 2002 in Godhra Gujrat?
Get real friend . Science negates all that you've said - like it does all religions and their so-called " Holy Books; with their crappy philosophy, and pathetically lousy and erroneous intepretations of human behaviour."
