Is there Two Jehovahs? More than one "truth"?
by DavidChristopher ini am relly confused.
one jehovah wants control over unquestioning, unreasoning, obedient, robots.
if they are god, i don't see how that would be a problem.

Apostates and Slacker Dubs Commit the Unforgivable Sin
by gumby inif your not too rusty with dub teachings, you remember that to commit the unforgivable sin, you had to deny the holy spirits begetting you.
it would be like one of the annointed purposely saying................ "i don't want to worship jehovah anymore nor have any part of him or his son inspite of the fact he annointed me".. in christendom, it is likewise a denial of the spirit when you know it's for real.
!...one day freddy franz got so pissed at apostates and slacker dubs, he decided he was gonna write a watchtower article and kick some major ass!

Acts 15:20 vs John 15:13
by Shazard inhow jw deals with this "contradiction"?
as they teach that acts 15:20 means that blood is life, so you have not to give your life to somebody else to save him!

Is there a contradiction with the wedding in Cana thing?
by cheeseman ini've often read jesus couldn't have been in the wilderness and at this wedding at the same time, so what's going on here?.
is there a case for a real contradiction?.
or is it really just misunderstanding the scriptures?.

may be this can help (not only witnessing to witnesses)
by Shazard insometimes when some jw tries to "prove" you something from scripture, it is usefull to observe the question from oposite direction.
for example, if jw tries to prove that word "proskuneo" towards jesus christ means only "homage" then ask, how it should be written if author of gospel would like to show somebody worshiping jesus christ (no matter what reason).
if jw tries to prove that world was not created in 7 astronomical days, but in 7 "periods" each longing millions of years, then ask how it should be written in bible in case (for some mistical reason) if author of genesis would like to say that the world was created in 7 astronomical days, wat words or constructs then he should use!

Can someone explain the whole Armageddon/judgement thing to me??
by Super_Becka ini've been doing a lot of research lately about jws and their beliefs for various reasons, not the least of which is curiosity (don't worry, i'm not converting - i'm curious, not insane!!
), and i've come across a few things that don't make much sense to me.
well, most of these things don't make sense to me, but some stand out more than others.. so, in my wanderings, i've seen lots about whether or not jws believe that they're the only ones who get to survive "armageddon" and live in "paradise earth" and such, and the general answer tends to be, "well, others will get the chance to be resurrected at "armageddon", too, if they're worthy", or something like that.

Internet prophesy ???
by wombat ini recall a wt publication about 40 years ago saying that a biblical prohesy of "a threat from the deep" or some such thing - possibly revelations - referred to nuclear missiles from submarines.
i was amazed at such foresight.. has the wts ever found anything in biblical prophesy that refers to computers or the internet ?.
sorry, i've been out of the loop for a long time but i enjoy reading of their funniness.
