  Why Do People Oppose Jehovah's Witnesses?

  by BlackSpirit in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  jesus christ, the son of the most high god, jehovah has this to say: "if the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.

  if you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own.

  now because you are no part of the world, but i have chosen you out of the world, for this reason the world hates you.

  Lots of religions are hated. Based on your reasoning, there are many religions that are Christ's friends.

  In regards to the JWs, most people just don't give a proverbial "rat's ass" about this meaningless religion.

  Only one real point per WT study...

  by JW_Rogue in

  2. bible

  has anyone else noticed that in the wt study articles the main point they want you to remember is always somewhere around paragraph 11-14?

  it's like a formula.

  intro and overview paragraphs 1-4. basic wt stuff 5-8 (not controversial).

  The zinger is usually embedded in the second study article of the magazine.

  As an accountant, I find his comments highly offensive.

  Shame on people if they donate to this jackass. Shame on the U.S. government for allowing this jackass to live in a taxfree world.

  Why is the finished mystery of 1917 so expensive compared to other JW books?

  by blownaway in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i see these on ebay from time to time and they go fro 150 to 200 dollars.

  seems like a lot.

  other old jw books go for much less.

  If you want to read it (although, I cannot imagine why), here is a link to the pdf.

  Kevin, you mentioned, "banned." I what sense was the book banned?

  i am shaking all over right now.

  i think it's worse that the bunker video.. i used to think there was no way that these people would actually "drink the cool aid" if you get my drift, but seeing this video i am now not sure it could never happen.. having a wife who i love dearly trapped in this cult is really freaking me out right now...

  So, the Womens March ... What Is It For?

  by Simon in

  1. social
  2. current

  it seems like mobilizing after the election, which seems pointless.

  i keep hearing demands for equal rights but don't understand what rights they are missing exactly.. normally a march is to show the support (and potential votes) for a cause, but ... votes for what?

  ... and the election happened already.. is anyone else confused?

  All the marches are meaningless unless people vote. The focus should be getting people out to vote.

  For what it is worth, I don't care. That being said, I wish the couple the very best. I have not turned the TV on this morning. So I have not seen the wedding at all. Was it wonderful?
