  Catholic Approach to Scripture: How It Made Me Leave the Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Hernandez in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  indoctrinated into all things watchtower, i once believed the bible was true history, that evolution was false and evil, and that the bible could be trusted to be reliable when it touched on science issues.

  then i got introduced to the official catholic bible translation of u.s. catholics, the new american bible revised edition (or nabre--not to be confused with the protestant nasv or new american standard version) and things changed.

  i was shocked to learn that the nabre teaches.... the creation and flood stories of genesis are jewish adaptations of mesopotamian heathen creation-flood mythology, not history.

  How to Irritate JWs: The Catholic Way

  by Hernandez in

  2. humour

  what's the greatest advantage in becoming a roman catholic after leaving the jehovah's witnesses some 17 years ago?

  why, it's the way it totally irritates people and really pushes their buttons...that is, if you are one of the unfortunate jehovah's witnesses who happens across my door during field service.

  i have developed several techniques to make it very frustrating to the unwary witness who hopes to make headway at my house.

  Any Others of the "Anointed"?

  by Hernandez in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was baptized in 1985, was a regular pioneer, ministerial servant, and on the way to becoming an elder when i left the witnesses in 1999. i also was one of those who claimed and (at the time ) believed i was one of the anointed.. i am wondering if there are any others here who also claimed they were of the anointed?

  how did you come to that conclusion?

  how do you feel about your claim now that you are out?.
