  Bible CONTRADICTIONS (Post Yours Here!) -- And Yahweh is a "Monster"!

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  "yahweh is a monster and the bible is full of contradictions!".

  this is for all atheists, skeptics, believers, anyone to post the biggest contradictions that you believe are found in the bible, and also to tell about why you believe the god of the old testament (yahweh/jehovah) is a "monster" (as so many have said on this website in the past).. so this is a double-themed-thread!.

  i want to see if i can provide good answers/solutions using logic and reasoning..

  "The Problem of EVIL & SUFFERING" Thread!

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for all individuals who are atheists, agnostics, christians, jews, muslims, jehovah's witnesses, or anyone else: this is the thread to post the very best argument against god or defense/case for god based on the problem of evil/suffering.. if there is an all-good, all-powerful, all-knowing god, why does he allow all of the suffering and evil we have today (and down through the millenniums)?.

  also, for those who believe in god (like myself), how do you harmonize/reconcile your belief in god with the fact of all of the evil and suffering in the world?.

  i will post my beliefs on this shortly..

  2. beliefs

  i would like to start a boilerplate thread to discuss evolution.

  there seems to be a great deal of interest in the subject.. so, i ask our members, what do you think about the veracity of the biological theory known as evolution?.

  is it true?

  For Atheists & Strong Agnostics: (Believers can counter-post also!)

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  for atheists and strong agnostics (those who believe that we cannot know about god if he exists):.

  i am posting this thread because i think it greatly help myself (and other christian believers) to better understand your beliefs and your viewpoints, if you posted a short (or long) summary of what the reasons and basis are for your not believing that there is a god, or for believing that we cannot know god if he exists.. you can include arguments against god, against the bible, against the christian interpretations of the bible, etc.. you can include scientific evidence that you believe contradicts the bible, or contradicts the existence of a god/creator/designer.. christians believers: you are welcome to post counter-arguments, or summaries for why you believe in god/creator/designer or why you believe in the bible or the christian interpretations of the bible.. i also thought it might be good to link to another lively thread we had on this website a while back: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/175688/1/god-morals-and-atheists.

  when you include your reasons for why you don't believe in god or the bible, or why you do believe in god or the bible, please include at least a little bit of the evidence (or link to the evidence) that backs up your statement.. for example, it doesn't do much good to claim "evolution is false" and just leave it at that, or on the other hand, to say "the bible is full of scientific errors" and just leave it at that.. here are two threads i posted where i explained the reasons why i personally believe in god and the bible:.

  Watchtower says: Jesus is a FALLEN ANGEL

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the watchtower society teaches that jesus is a fallen angel!.

  back in the days of charles taze russell, the watchtower society correctly taught that abaddon/apollyon from revelation chapter 9 was satan or a demon (because the bible describes him as a fallen angel of the abyss who is in control of all of the demon/locusts):.

  the finished mystery (1917):.

  What was it that first got you thinking that the Society was WRONG in how they INTERPRET the BIBLE?

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  what was it that first got you thinking that the society was wrong in how they interpret the bible?.

  for me personally, it was the way they always downgrade jesus to be an angel and are promoting the governing body in his place.. also when the society taught that jesus was abaddon/apollyon the fallen angel in revelation..

  Why so defensive? (CHRISTIANS ONLY)

  by besty in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the wife and kids and i were round for dinner last night at some good friends of ours - very informal and relaxed.

  we have been there many times and its home from home.. they have 2 boys same as us, and they also had another friend (jane) over with her 3 boys - as both dad;s from each parent couple were out of town it was me and sam and the 2 mums + 7 boys under 7 to take care of.

  cue another glass of wine please.. eating outside in the front yard, kids playing on the walk street, sunset in the background - you get the idea.. so it turns out jane (who is a very confident, outgoing, successful businesswoman, and attorney) is from texas, and very proud of that - rightly so - but lives in la.

  JW's are NOT Dedicated to the ORGANIZATION!

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the watchtower society claims that jehovah's witnesses are not dedicated to the watchtower organization!.

  this claim is made in the quotes below.. however, how can this be true, while at the same time, all jehovah's witnesses are baptized in the name of the "spirit-directed organization"?.

  the watchtower, july 1st, 1970, page 404:.

  How does GOVERNING BODY receive "NEW LIGHT"?

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  just how does the governing body of jehovah's witnesses receive their "insight" or "understanding" of the bible, in order to publish this "spiritual food at the proper time" in their watchtower and awake magazines and all their books?.

  let's find out -- from their own publications -- exactly how this happens:.

  "spirits of the dead" brochure (1991), page 18:.
