Why do I always end up crushing a JWs psyche?
by A-Team inthis time: all nations will hear the good news then the end will come.
anyways, he was asking do i think the end was near.
why did i explain to him that the jws, by bible definition, haven't reached all the nations yet...the proceed to break out the greek dictionary and explain what the word nation really means in the greek (ethnos).

I just can't shake this feeling about the word Jehovah, and Now I know why
by A-Team inhad to do a little historic research to find out that jehovah is actually 2 hebrew words compounded: yah(h) and hovah.
yah(h) means: "i exist," "i am," "i create," or "i will be or bring into being.
hovah means: ruin, mischif, but yet,it's root, havvah,translates as: "calamity, iniquity, mischief, mischievous (thing), naughtiness, naughty, noisome, perverse thing, substance, very wickedness.

Do JWs even know the definition of the Sabbath is?
by A-Team inmost jws i come across tell me that the sabbath is when they partake in the memorial ::hard laughts:: do most jws think this way?
the reason this came up, is i was doing research on the sabbath, and from what i have found....for those who are still christians, we are in error because we practice it on sunday.
doing teh research of the history of the sabbath on sunday, it seems like teh catholic church is doing more harm then good.
