Yeah I get it...... in this case (if you eat the fruit) it will
kill you ...you will die from it. So.....if I (god) don't let
you eat from the tree of life .......you will die eventually
anyway!

Gen 2:17"...,for in the day you eat from it you will surely die"
by bobld intrue they ate,they died,but on the other hand if they never ate from it,they could(would ) of died anyways.. let me illustrate:on a store shelf there are many products.one of them has a label"poison" if eaten you will surely die.if a person consumes the poison he is one dead sob no question.on the other hand if he doesn't eat the poison he will eventually die anyways..

why Jehovah's witnesses? not yaweh witnesses?
by purrpurr inthis i never understood, the publications say that gods name translated from hebrew is yaweh.
why add a whole bunch of letters and vowels that change the sound of the name completely?
i've often thought surely we would gain greater respect on the ministry if we used a name that is historically and verbally accurate?.

Which ever way it is said .... still sounds dumbass.

"Before and After" JW Cult Education Pamplets I wish to Make!
by BucketShopBill ini have three stories i would like to tell through a quick message showing the effects of the watchtower, "before i became a jw" and "after i became a jw".
the first would be the real life story of a successful jw business woman who was on track to become ceo of a major s&p 500 company until two jw elderly witnesses weasled their way in to her life.
the second is the happy family everyone loves and all the lives they touch until the cult turns them in to drones.

If there were no shunning ...
by bemused ina lot of members of this forum are still notionally active jws, in many cases because of worries about the loss of contact with family and friends if they were to leave.
i was never in so it's hard for me to judge, but it seems to me that if the watchtower org were to announce tomorrow that shunning is wrong and jws should keep contact with family and friends who leave then the effect would be devasting for congregation numbers.
if so then obviously such an announcement is highly unlikely, but is my view correct?

JW's just called at my door, simply handed me the JW.ORG tract and left! JW's now mere leaflet distributors.
by yadda yadda 2 ini'm off work today and its a monday morning.
a male and female jw just knocked on my door, i opened it, the guy just handed me their latest website promoting tract saying "hi, were just leaving these with people today", and then he made to leave.
i looked at the tract and then looked at him as he was turning to walk away and said to him "ok, thanks, but ummm you could've just left it in my letterbox.".

Hello
by lurkernomore ini thought it was high time to introduce myself (without my name of course).
as my name would suggest i have been reading your intriguing post, thoughts and discussions for some time now.
around 3/4 months to be exact.. i guess to start with it would seem fitting to give a little background on my current situation.. i'm a born-in, but have over the last few years found that through a number of varying occurences, (some of which i may discuss in future posts) that my 'zeal' has gone from regular field service and meetings to no service in over a year and very sporadic meeting attendance.
