  The Alpha and Omega-God has no beginning and no end /as opposed to the universe having no beginning and no end ?

  by smiddy in

  i would like some more enlightened beings than me to thrash this out.. to start the ball rolling with my small intellect.

  i was always taught from my jw days that nothing came from nothing,and i accepted that.. all of creation had a start,and reproduced itself according to it`s kind according to genesis.

  and of course we now know their are life forms that are a-sexual that reproduce.

  I find pop science more entertaining than the current syfi moves at the cinemas!

  Black holes, string theory, and dark matter; what could be more exciting?

  It's no wonder the big bang theory is "the best bang for the buck" in the media.

  It's been over a decade since I've seen any reference to the multi dimension aspect

  of the physical universe's beginning. Scientists describe it as having 12 to 19 dimensions at play

  during its initial explosion! From that, it cools down to 9 to 7; where space and time are non-existent.

  Imagine the power it took to pull that off! Now think;

  The One who did it must have the ability to live within a multi-dimensional plain,

  without the normal constraints of time-space. Hence; God!

  Why do Jehovah’s Witnesses send their mentally ill door to door?

  by life is to short in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this has been a question i have asked over and over even when i was a very devout jw.

  please do not get me wrong in thinking that i am trying to be mean or cruel or unkind to those who have mental illness, that is not in the least where i am going with this.

  what i mean is i think it is cruel to send them door to door, it puts way to much stress on them and it looks bad for the name jehovah.. it seemed that in every hall i have ever been in there were some people who were extremely mentally ill. there have always been some in every hall who were schizophrenics or suffered major depression, or other forms of mental illness.

  "Great darkness' 'befalls' all "false prophets,"

  given enough time; this happens to all of "Babylon the Great!"

  The WT, though; does have allot of average to "aware' individuals.

  But since they serve a GB that's concerned about numbers,

  it mostly goes to drawing in those who don't think for themselves,

  or people who love participating in aggressive cliques!

  Hi Lady Lee; how 've you been lately? Our family's doing pretty good at present.

  I would like to get your opinion on something. Since; "The Society" is all about 'money' and false pretences...

  do you think that the WT will fall along with Babylon the Great, or later as an anti-christ religion of the Devil?

  PS: Does anyone else have any ideas?

  Cult Practice; "Secret Files", clique only

  by AwareBeing in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  another thing about the publishers files is the high minded attitudes .

  that local elders have.

  they are presented as secret files for elders .

  Thanks' Baltar; my family thinks those files are nothing more than worthless "crap" as well!

  Only HR enthusiasts can appreciate the usury value of this type of info. for their abusive techniques.

  Thank you NY Rebel; the org. looks like a pyramid scheme with those who get the most "numbers",

  being rewarded with "privileges" (AKA; ascendancy)! As a corp. promotes the best salespeople.

  Keep up the good work guys! "The fine fight of the faith", the eastern Yesuah's disciples; not NY cult!

  Stephen Lett: "Pray for us to be faithful and discreet!"

  by cedars in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  out of interest, i have just been scanning through the four latest available watchtower study articles (july thru october 2011) and in doing so i am reading them objectively for the first time.

  i have been shocked, outraged and amazed by some of my findings.. as one example, take the article "a history-making meeting" from the august 15th watchtower, 2011. the article, beginning on page 18, discusses the 126th annual meeting of the watch tower bible and tract society, and begins with a summary of the opening talk by governing body member stephen lett.

  it concludes the highlights of his talk in this way:.

  Society tells us to stop asking questions...

  by cedars in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i was just glancing at the back of the october 15th watchtower and the questions from readers.

  the question under discussion is "what should i do when i have a question about something i read in the bible or when i need advice about a personal problem?".

  the article goes on to discuss how we should consult the watch tower publications index among the many 'tools' that have been provided by the faithful and discreet slave whenever we have a question that is not directly discussed in the publications.. one statement really caught my eye, because it's the first time i've ever seen the society actually dissuade people from writing in with questions.

  QFR: "Warning - memorial partakers might be loonies!"

  by cedars in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as part of my objective analysis of four month's worth of watchtower study editions from july to october 2011, i found the following gem from a question from readers, on page 22 of the august 15 magazine.

  the question under discussion was "how are we to understand the figures in the annual service report?

  ", and it goes on to provide an idiot's guide to what the figures mean, including the following.... "memorial partakers.

  Once again; OUTLAW makes a good point in truism style!

  WT's publishing campaign mostly draws in vulnerable people,

  but after a few years they get worse! Some pick up the

  judgmental trait that's there, and start questioning all things.

  While others learn supposed "piety", and get the sense that

  they are cleaner than the rest of the congregation. Either way;

  both groups are disliked by the cong., as they outshine the clique.

  The former wakes up and leaves, the latter get dreamy and partakes.

  The awakened one can't take the abuse, and the said "anointed"

  ones endures it as "tribulation from within the congregation"!

  I remember when our family read that article; shock and anger!

  We knew this was just another put off, because we've had dealings like this when calling questions in to NY, Bethel.

  Every thing has to be written down and read by wrote; if there's any inconsistencies, people will write them again!

  Never mind the fact that someone is in desperate need to fix a problem causing "tribulations"; just "pray, and tell your elders"!

  Guess what? The Bible commands us to help one another, apparently God is talking to the flock.

  Because no pretend GB, or elders are going to lift a pharisee finger!

  Since WT already has too many people at HQ to worry about, and the local BOE have meetings to prepare for.

  There's still a few good ones left in the org and they need to "get out of her soon my people!"
