Gods rests in the 7th part of the 7th day?
by Hellrider inthe wirdest thing about jw-doctrine is the calculations and the numbers: .
genesis: 2:1 the heavens and the earth were completed with everything that was in them.2:2 by the seventh day god finished the work that he had been doing, and he ceased on the seventh day all the work that he had been doing.
2:3 god blessed the seventh day and made it holy because on it he ceased all the work that he had been doing in creation.

Christ and the cross
by Hellrider inone of the things most non-jws (as in normal people) find strange about jws, is that they believe christ died on a pole, rather than on a cross.
i remember how the cross, when it would be mentioned, would be seen as almost a satanic symbol.
i never fully understood what the big deal was with the cross, because, as we read the bible at the meetings, every once in a while we`d stumble across the word "cross" in the bible (the nwt wasn`t translated to norwegian until some time after 1990, i think, so i never saw it the time i was in).

Don`t know whether to laugh or cry...norwegian wikipedia on jws
by Hellrider ina while ago, the article on jehovahs witnesses on wikipedia (in norwegian http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/jehovas_vitner) was bad enough...i am pretty sure it was written by some well-meaning, but uncritical theologian, who was desperately trying to avoid insulting them.
in other words, it was not critical or biased at all.
well, some jws have been in there and have been rewriting the whole article, as they felt it didn`t portray them in a positive enough light.
