also, the inerrant inspired word of g.o.d. has it, that "the sea will be no more" [rev21;1] so, covering all the seafloor with flora, we can waterfront house many more, on the residue lakes, and feed them with vat crops, watered by the primordial mist. bible working in misterious ways.

there goes the wt promise of a waterfront property with snowy peak mountain view for everyone. even any one, of course
then, at the end of the 1000 years, the earth will have 4 corners again [rev20;8], and then, in perfection, , a cube has more surface area than the circle .

Do you feel comfortable being an apostate?
by Chook ini always found it uncomfortable to informal witness to people but trying to convince a jw to jump ship brings much more pleasure..

I am very comfortable where I stand, my stasis, apo- = apart. how could I stand at the doors with these false doctrines, abusive rulers and be comfortable with my conscious? I sleep well, anytime.

I know a long time missionary 50+ years that would never take a new recruit to the Memorial as a first org contact. Even Sub Marine Witnesses will be tempted to attend hat talk , even from here, (lacking leaks), to get a scoop of relief from the "good grief" what is this thing about? memorial feeling.

Major JW mistake and where the Holy Spirit
by Crazyguy init's my understanding that the gb took out the text about the adulterous woman at mark 7:53 - 8:11, (this the all important verses where jesus says the one with out sin cast the first stone.
) sighting that it wasn't found in the oldest text.
which text are they talking about, the codex sinaiticus?

at one time, wt took these verses seriously, ,. I remeber comments to the effect, that in the law, the first of 2 witnesses had to throw the first stones. and nobody wanted to admit that they were eye witness (with lids, covers closed) to an adulterous act.
bsw. There are other gems to confront JC with, like: "judgement will start with the house of god," leaders will have a more severe judgement" will be judged the way you are judging. my reply to them, you can do what you want, but remember, you are only judging yourselves.

Exposing the Core Premise of JW False Teaching
by TerryWalstrom inpoison is at work in any argument with jehovah's witnesses.
this poison has little to do with the beauty of watchtower logic or the tasty morsels of jw reasoning.. the poison is odorless and tasteless and it has absorbed into their core premise: scripture interpretation directed by jehovah.. if you buy into the core premise (somebody possesses a divinely granted access to an infallible source of truth) you are already dead in the water.. that is the deal breaker.
false premises lead always to false conclusions.. stop right here.. the core misrepresentation of christianity solely rests in accepting the bible as the inerrant word of almighty god.

The bible as we have it today is flawed, not because we do not have the originals, because one way or the other the details we read are not jiving with reality. Would the originals read so differently that these errors are corrected?
4. Why waste time arguing scriptural interpretation when no scripture of any kind is demonstrably DIVINE?
because if it can be shown, proven, that the interpreting authority has erred, contradicted scripture [flawed or not], their claim to divine mission is shattered.
It is like proving the alibi of an accused to be flawed, a fraud, a lie, although it turns out, there never was a crime committed; and the whole affair was staged to get publicity, money, fame. double lies proven. Prove black and white reality.
Time, if you have it, well spent.

JWs biggest problem is not doctrinal issues
by Chook init's biggest problems are associated with its lack of genuine love and concern for the rank& file.
the average person doesn't need a food critic to tell them their hamburger is shit, in the same manner the average person can discern kindness and love.
gbs fake love and concern is evident in the way head office deals with victims of sexual abuse by jw clergy.

How smart were the ancients?
by Coded Logic ingrowing up as a jw, i always thought the ancients were scientific morons who knew next to nothing.
ashamedly, i used to run around citing isaiah 40:22 as proof of the bible's 'divine authorship' because it talked about "the circle of the earth".
as though this were somehow an unknowable before spaceflight.

is translated into French by JWs with the word "ancien".:
TFA:"Les anciens" old time elders will appear to be smarter and smarter compared to the new crop of jws, once all the wonderful changes come into play. (see the "new instructions" thread).

LDS leadership regards "intellectuals" as the greatest threat to their religion. If a high level apostasy scandal was threatened in his case, perhaps he was framed to shame him on a personal matter. With Mormons many females past, modern snooping, that should not be difficult.
would be a great ride, gaining freedom via the escort route!
