  contrary to what the wt teaches, they ignore the wise words of ecc 10:19 "ecc 10:19 "a feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.

  Money doesn't buy happiness, it buys options that can bring happiness.

  A step in the right direction: Denmark banning circumcision as a cruel, barbaric and archaic ritual not fit for modern civilised lands

  by Gilbeath Haaraloth in

  as you may know, this makes me very happy.

  ban on religious circumcision.

  relate to a ban in all probability will not stop the millennium old core tradition in many parts of islam and especially judaism.

  Now Jews and Muslims can rediscover good old fashioned Eurocentric Anti-Semitism by being equally discriminated against, soon it will be Halal/Kosher is cruel, bla, bla, bla. Frickin' White People!

  Why is the Bible silent about the real Israel/Egyptian connections?

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the bible does connect egypt and israel (including judah), but does not tell the truth about the connection.. an exhibition at the israel museum tells a clearer story.. it tells of two periods of connection;.

  the first connection around 1800 to 1550 bce when canaanites settled in the eastern section of the nile river delta.

  it seems this is the era that saw the development of stories like the joseph story and the mose's story.

  Because the Bible was edited, and a lot of the more fantastic gospels and other books are in Coptic and Ethiopic. There was the scientific and linguistic argument against these books, but if the Canonical books were held to that same rigorous standard today, Genesis and Revelation would be out.

  How hot are the Muslimas and the Jewesses in your neck of the woods should be the barometer for whether you circumcise your son or not. The anti argument has merit, but marriage and relationship prospects matter depending on where you live and your family background. There are an awful lot of wealthy and gorgeous Muslimas and Jewesses here in California, and I worry about the pain a young man might have to face if he pursues one with an eye on marriage. Young women have the money more than young men nowadays.

  Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Curse of Music.

  jehovahs witnesses and the curse of music.. .

  i was inspired to write this after listening to a recent podcast of the thinking atheist by seth andrews.

  as many of you know, seth was a devout christian who not only loved contemporary christian music but was one of the hosts of a popular morning show on kxoj in tulsa, oklahoma in the 1990s.

  Nothing more awesome than being the nonbelieving husband chauffeur blasting Bob Marley playing "We'll be forever loving Jah" while pulling into the KH parking lot sporting a beard long hair wayfarers handlebar moustache and a cowboy hat and getting a backhanded compliment, "nice bass." by some elder, to which I reply "thank you!" then getting a talk by my wife that I totally brush off with a "whatever."

  JW Rumspringa

  by SonoftheTrinity in

  are jehovah's witnesses on their way to practicing amish style rumspringa?

  basically pushing young people out into the world and seeing who comes back with their faith intact.

  after so many generations of discouraging education, it seems like an easy way to ensure that there are some educated born-ins.

  Well the polygamists in Utah do basically the same thing. They became so authoritarian that they created an atmosphere of hostility toward the next generation of young men so that they can have the young women.

  It seems like the more millenarian the JWs become, the more they glorify the older generation as the older generation can't bear the thought that the crescendo of history at Armageddon doesn't happen in their generation, thus making their faith and their life insignificant. The temptation to take their frustration out on the next generation will be there.

  Aliens exist and YHWH (Jehovah) was one of them.

  by Jehovah Was An Alien in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  "the constellation of the seven stars forming the pleiades appears to be the crowning centre around which the known system of the planets revolve even as our suns planet obey the sun and travel in their respective orbits.

  it has been suggested, and with much weight, that one of the stars of that group is the dwelling place of jehovah and the place of the highest heavens; that is the place to which the inspired writer referred to when he said: "hear thou from thy dwelling place, even from heaven" (2 chronicles6:21) ; and that it is the place to which job referred when under inspiration he wrote: "canst thou blind the sweet influences of pleiades, or loose the bands of orion" – job 38:31"

  the constellation of the pleiades is a small one compared with others which scientific instruments disclose to the wondering eyes of man.

  We have three big alien religions in this country. The most infamous is the Church of Scientology, the most political is the Nation of Islam, and the sexiest one is of course Le Raëlianisme. L. Ron Hubbard, Louis Farrakhan, or Raël and his assistant, Miami T.V.'s sexy Jenny Scordamaglia pick your poison. Now Raël says he met the extraterrestrial named Yahweh. Jehovah was an Alien are you a follower of Raël?
