@Perry
21 Prepare a slaughtering block for his sons
Because of the guilt of their forefathers,
So that they will not rise up and take over the earth
And fill the land with their cities.”
11 E′phra・im’s glory flies away like a bird;
There is no giving birth, no pregnancy, and no conception.+
12 Even if they raise children,
I will bereave them until no man is left;+
Yes, woe to them when I turn away from them!+
13 E′phra・im, planted in a pasture, was to me like Tyre;+
Now E′phra・im must bring his sons out to the slaughter.”
14 Give them, O Jehovah, what you should give them;
A womb that miscarries and dry* breasts.
15 “All their wickedness was in Gil′gal,+ for there I came to hate them.
I will drive them away from my house because of their evil deeds.+
I will no longer love them;+
All their princes are stubborn.
16 E′phra・im will be struck down.+
Their root will dry up, and they will produce no fruit.
Even if they give birth, I will put to death their cherished offspring.”
5 And to the others he said in my hearing: “Go through the city after him and strike. Do not let your eye feel sorry, and do not feel any compassion.+ 6 Old man, young man, virgin, little child, and women you should kill off completely.+ But do not go near to any man on whom there is the mark.+ You should start from my sanctuary.”+ So they started with the elders who were in front of the house.+7 Then he said to them: “Defile the house and fill the courtyards with the slain.+Go!” So they went out and struck down people in the city.
29 Then at midnight, Jehovah struck down every firstborn in the land of Egypt,+from the firstborn of Phar′aoh who was sitting on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the prison,* and every firstborn of the animals.+ 30 Phar′aoh got up that night along with all his servants and all the other Egyptians, and there was a great outcry among the Egyptians, because there was not a house where someone was not dead.+Date: Tuesday, February 17, 2015 at 8:36 PM
20 “You are a war club for me, a weapon for battle,
For with you I will smash nations.
With you I will bring kingdoms to ruin.
21 With you I will smash the horse and its rider.
With you I will smash the war chariot and its rider.
22 With you I will smash man and woman.
With you I will smash old man and boy.
With you I will smash young man and woman.
23 With you I will smash shepherd and his flock.
With you I will smash farmer and his team of animals.
With you I will smash governors and deputy rulers.
24 And I will repay Babylon and all the inhabitants of Chal・de′a
For all the evil that they have committed in Zion before your eyes,”+ declares Jehovah.
25 “Here I am against you,+ O destructive mountain,” declares Jehovah,
“You destroyer of the whole earth.+
I will stretch out my hand against you and roll you down from the crags
And make you a burned-out mountain.”
26 “People will not take from you a cornerstone or a foundation stone,
Because you will become desolate forever,”+ declares Jehovah.
21 “‘But if you keep walking in opposition to me and refuse to listen to me, I will then have to strike you seven times as much, according to your sins. 22 I will send the wild animals of the field among you,+ and they will bereave you of children+ and annihilate your domestic animals and reduce your numbers, and your roads will be deserted.+
15 Whoever is found will be pierced through,
And whoever is caught will fall by the sword.+
16 Their children will be dashed to pieces before their eyes,+
Their houses will be looted,
And their wives will be raped.
17 Here I am raising up against them the Medes,+
Who regard silver as nothing
And who take no delight in gold.
18 Their bows will shatter young men;+
They will show no pity on the fruit of the womb
Nor mercy to children.
23 He went up from there to Beth′el. As he was going along the way, some young boys came out from the city and began to jeer at him,+ and they kept saying to him: “Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!” 24 Finally he turned around and looked at them and cursed them in the name of Jehovah. Then two she-bears+ came out of the forest and tore 42 of the children to pieces.+
Rebel8 you are 100% right

Pretty sure I have been voted off the family island... well wont be getting those dumbass emails anymore.
Cappytan, I thought about also using the criss reference where Elisha called down fire and killed 51 men, later then the apostles asked jesus if he was gonna do the same, he basically rebuked them and told them they didn't know what they were talking about. In other words, which religious stance do you choose? the blood thirsty one, or jesus? So much harmony in the bible no?

Is there anything about the JW's you still like?
by donny insome jw's on various postingshave asked me was there anything about the jw's i still agree with.
of course there are some things i agree with and some i partially do.
1. political involvement - while i do not agree with totally avoiding anything associated with politics, i agree that many of todays churches are way too involved in trying to sway their constituents beliefs.

Not a damn thing. Their are some good people in, there's a lot of bad people too. But it's the same outside. There are good and bad people. Religion is the only thing that makes "good" people do bad things. -

Why I became agnostic after leaving the Watchtower
by donny inone of many things that led me to agnosticism after leaving the jw's was the cognitive dissonance i encountered with those in the mainstream churches, especially the really conservative ones.
these types would scream out in protest (rightly so) on all of the current atrocities going on in the world regarding islam and its radical extremists, but then justify the savage murders and slaughter perpetuated by israel in the old testament.. often i would take these passages and replace the names and places of these scriptures with current ones.
for example 1 samuel 15:3 reads "now go, attack the amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them.

You and I are in full agreement about the OT and religious atrocities, I even scolded my witness family last night for lusting after this blood bath they call Armageddon and said that the line between ISIS and them is very very thin, the old testament is full of righteous genocide, read many of the accounts the Israelites were the ISIS of the bronze age. Read the account when moses came down and they were worshipping the calf, its despicable. The leviites went and hacked up thousands of their brothers, sister, children, friends, then given "A blessing" from god. Sick -

Some of highlights from the infanticide response...
You didn't mention all the children who died in the flood? And why stop with the "Old Testament"? What about those in Jerusalem... who ate their children? Why didn't God save the children?
In all the examples you gave, what kind of people did this happen to? Those in opposition to Jehovah. They had done things so detestable that Jehovah was going to bring them to an account. Them and their offspring.
Is there something you have seen in the scriptures to indicate that Jehovah has at anytime bypassed inherited death and granted anyone, children included, a RIGHT to life?
People who feel sorry because they are CHILDREN, have a distorted view that because they are children they have some RIGHT to life, that a child's life should somehow be more worthy in Jehovah's eyes than that of an adult?
Jehovah is gracious, merciful, slow to anger... But he does not let off from punishment, swayed by sentiment. To him, the giver of life, a life is a life, be it one day old or 100 years old, it makes no difference. Not a one of us can claim a RIGHT to live... it is a gift.
If parents were warned of a tidal wave, and they didn't get their children to higher ground and they died, who then, would YOU blame for their death?
Why didn't Jehovah make a provision on the Ark for an orphanage to save all the children, along with the animals? There is no provision to my knowledge for orphanages in the new world for all the children who's wicked parents didn't do what they should have to save them.
I love people and their children just as Jehovah does. That is why I will spend my few little dollars, my precious little time, my poor health, and advancing age to warn and help educate everyone I can, while Jehovah is patient with them because he does not WANT anyone to die.
Still turns my stomach to read this, responded and added a link to the daily news article about the caleb and sofia video

Yea the thing was like any other time u was just letting her say her crazy end of days stuff. I even called my brother earlier to vent and he said had yelled at her and told her to stop that no one was appreciating it and it was causing damage. her response to the infanticide email I sent Would give you all children Chills. This is a heartless organization. She said fist it never came up in God's heart to make kids pass through the fire. So I sent like a dozen scriptures of God murdering children. Her response back started well if you are going to use all those don't leave out the flood too. Sick. -

I put a whole bunch of scriptures where the wonderful Yahweh committed infanticide. it went on and on. Any way I got so pissed, before I said to much, I started texting my brother, who was mad at her too and agreed with my stance. (he is a weak witness now, was an elder before, but die hard for the truth still). So I unloaded on him, about the bible being fairy tales, and and the WTBS being a MLM, publishing cult/company making money in the realestate biz. Oh he was not pleased about that we debated until he went to sleep. But I am so mad I just feel like telling them all I want nothing to do with their damn cult and to piss off. So much for fade right? Someone talk me off the DA ledge. -

Tower of Babel—unlikely to be a true account!
by abiather inwhen his children want to construct a tower that reaches to the heavens, heavenly father is unlikely to respond, saying: nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.
come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.
(gen 11:6, 7).

Well lets use the bible, lets consider the ludicris stories of a global flood and the tower of Babel were true, how much time is there between the two? about 100 years? I can't remember exactly, but the idea that shortly after the flood the earth had enough population of inbreeds to support and build a city?
The truth is many cultures all over the world have their own explanations on how language came about. The bible bible version is just another myth to explain something from a small limited point of view.
The human genome and the movement of people around the world should disprove not only the flood but the babel story without these silly debates over little details. Think about all the other civilizations thriving and growing during this supposed time of mass global genocide, Egypt, China, India... they never got the memo I guess.
