  I wish people "Happy Yule". This is the pagan celebration of the Winter Solstice and that is real. And after all that's where Christmas was adopted/adapted from.

  I love the lights and decorations this time of year. We have people in our area that set the lights in rhythm with certain radio stations playing Christmas music. I will be at my friends' house for Christmas dinner. I will visit my Dad in the nursing home Christmas day. And I will give him a gift. He has no clue anymore.

  Wow! Very well done.

  See how they just turn and go? They don't want to engage and I would suspect they have labelled you apostate. Let's see if they return. My bet is they won't. JWs cannot handle the real truth.
  

  Mince pie? Yum!

  Are Magicians Spawns of Satan the Devil?

  by Cold Steel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was perusing the internet not long ago and came upon this series of videos by a guy calling himself xendrius.

  it declares that many of today's best magicians are in league with the devil.

  his claims are based on his observation that the tricks would be impossible to do unless the magicians had made unholy pacts with the devil.. so what's the take of the wtbts?

  Magicians are masters of illusion... and nothing more. They are entertainers that use many innovative techniques to trick the human eye. Google it. Don't listen to religious zealots. They are the ones with the agenda.

  do you 100% believe it is not the truth.

  I actually know it's 100% not the truth. Their ever changing doctrines are proof of this along with their damaging/destructive beliefs.

  Wonderment said: By the same token, being a man, I must be borderline homosexual as I love kitchen gear, and like to spend hours going over the latest kitchen gadgets anywhere I find them. Also, used to have a girlfriend that loved persusing tools in the stores as much as I did. We both were "homosexuals" and we didn't know it.

  I do love the kitchen gadgets as well. If you and I both love the tool sets that are traditionally associated with both genders, does that make us bisexual?

  November Study WT "Train You Child to Love Going Door 2 Door"

  by JW_Rogue in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  been catching up on some jw reading and found a gem in the november study wt in the first article, paragraph #11:.

  yet, you might look beyond the obvious and ask yourself, does my child enjoy the ministry or only the breaks?

  if you discern that the ministry could be more interesting or more rewarding for your children, set goals with them.

  To this day, the idea of Field Serve Us makes me cringe. Isn't it one of the least effective methods of reaching people? Just keep the R&F busy so they think they are doing God's work. Meanwhile, there are millions if not billions of people on this planet who have no idea who they are. And never will. This will always be the case. When I was a teenager back in the 1970s I did the math. The numbers didn't work out then. They still do not. Mathematically, 8 million JWs (?) cannot possibly witness to 8 billion people.

  Insanity... doing the same things over and over expecting different results.

  Did Jesus attend a "worldly celebration"?

  by Westenddave in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  hello community,.

  my question in a nutshell is whether there is justification in celebrating worldly holidays, such as the 4th of july in the usa?.

  let's look at a parallel.

  It has been stated a few times on this board that if Jesus were to return, he would be considered an apostate by Botchtower. Would he be a 'true JW'? Highly doubt it.

  Interpretation of scripture is always in the best interest of the one doing the interpretation. Always look to the agenda of the interpreter.

  As for celebrating, this scripture says you should not be judged by how you wish to celebrate:
  

  Colossians 2:16: Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. NIV

  Wait! This is awesome! I can use this...

  I once told an uncle of mine that I probably should have been born a man as I absolutely LOVE power tools. I can spend hours perusing these aisles in Canadian Tire, Home Hardware, or Home Depot.

  Now, when the JWs come knocking I can tell them I'm borderline homosexual as I love power tools. I wonder if they'll skedaddle off my porch? BONUS!
