Abraham is not a son of God? So says the elder
by biometrics infollowing from my other thread: http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/240360/1/nebuchadnezzars-accession-year-in-625-b-c-e. the elder made a statement that i knew was wrong, but wasn't sure where to look in the bible.. he said 'abraham was a friend of god, not a son of god' and he used this point to show that 'brothers' mentioned in matthew 25:31-46 (least of my brothers) can only mean the anointed (144,000).
and we will be judged eternally by our attitude toward the gb/watchtower.. this morning i found in luke 3:33 that abraham is listed as a 'son of god' by his lineage from adam.. the son of isaac, the son of abraham,.
the son of terah, the son of nahor,.

Sunday's Talk
by biometrics inso my wife has started going to sunday meetings again.
when she returns home i ask her what she learned.. yesterday's talk was about "putting up with brothers and sisters who suffer depression" (in my wife's words).
this confirms my suspicions that there's a high percentage of jws who suffer from depression disorders.

jw.org - Terms and Conditions
by biometrics indoes anyone else find it ironic that the watchtower places literature on the internet, encourage people to download and share it, but then warns no to post it on the internet?
isn't posting on the internet the no.1 method of sharing information in this day and age?
and what, exactly, constitutes "posting on the internet".. in their terms and conditions:.

Watchtower Organisation vs North Korea
by biometrics inso i was watching a documentary on north korea.
half way through it struck me how similar north korea is with the watchtower:.
1. certian clothes are not allowed.. 2. you're restricted what you can and can't see.. 3. any foreigners visiting have their own personal tour guide to prevent you seeing the wrong things.. 4. you're not allowed to ask the critical questions.. 5. you're expected to pay hommage for the founder.. 6. the people all look lifeless and uniform.. .... but the thing that really got me, was the literature deparment in north korea.

Afterlife - why would Satan promote it?
by biometrics inso the watchtower says that the afterlife is purely an invention of satan, because of the 'you won't die' lie told to eve.
(even though the bible is littered with afterlife talk e.g.
luke 16:19-31, matthew 10:28, matthew 25:46, revelation 21:8,revelation 6:9-11, luke 23:43, john 3:16 ).

Jehovah's Witnesses 'a cruel cult'
by biometrics infrom a local newspaper site in australia:.
christian sect the jehovah's witnesses - with 64,000 active 'disciples' in australia - are a cruel religion with no soul, according to melbourne cultbuster raphael aron.. his warning comes as the federal government considers tightening the definition of a charity to prevent some cults and quasi-religions keeping their tax free status.
independent senator nick xenophon has renewed calls for a national cult-busting agency.. mr aron, a psychologist, counsellor and director of melbourne's cult counselling australia, said the jehovah's witnesses had a policy of "shunning" members who left or wanted to leave by cutting them off from family members who remained.. "i am still waiting for a justification for someone to be able to rip away a five or six year old child from their extended family because mum or dad have decided to leave the jehovah's witnesses," he said.. advertisementformer members say shunning can involve bullying, threats, harassment and stalking to lure the 'apostate', or lapsed member, back.
