"Prayer" and answers to it , positive / negative ,or is it all in the mind ?
by smiddy3 inspeaking from my own experience and that of my family of wife and two now adult sons do not believe that prayers to jehovah /god are answered .. so it must also be true of all other religions and their believers also.. my wife and i were jw`s for 33 years and and i don`t believe anyone prayed harder than my wife and i at various trials we faced during those times in those 33 years.. we may as well have been like the present day jews who pray to a brick wall .

When I watch the sun sets on the horizon of the cold water body of water that my house overlooks, the shape of the perfect circle is always deformed, sometimes suspended, once it looked like a stack of plates,
should have counted them and see whether it relates to events in my life. , but not telling, enough other reasons t get a reputation to being odd. ha ha.
reflection and reflection of different substances at different temperatures are understood, but conditions that arrive are too complex. Think of the proverbial butterfly in the Amazon triggering a hurricane.

No shame in being apostate
by venus inthe one who is standing away is apostate (literally "to stand off," from apo- "away from" + stenai "to stand").
ironically, proponents of untruth may call truth-seekers as apostates, thus making the term meaningless.. for example, paul, the greatest of all apostles, taught untruth (stood away from truth) [see his main teaching in romans 5:12-21] even though he had known the following truths:.
1) all humans did not become sinners through one man (genesis 5:24; job 1:8; psalm 18:23; ezekiel 14:14 and compare habakkuk 2:4), hence there was no need for anyone to pay ransom.. 2) in the old testament, the messiah refers to a “prince of peace” who literally rules from jerusalem, not merely anointed to the office to do the work in some distant future and get killed before that future occurs.

JW`s Lie about Christendom hiding the Name Jehovah.or its equivalent Yahweh
by smiddy injehovahs witnesses have been outspoken over the years/decades that christendom have been hiding or obscuring or even eliminating gods name jehovah from the general public.. how true is that statement .?.

about the 16th century.

by pale.emperor inhttps://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/watchtower-study-july-2017/propaganda-winning-battle-for-your-mind/.
in what is just the height of irony, watchtower warns us about propaganda, and accepting everything we hear/read.

forbade, with severe punishment as a penalty, all listening to the outside, (even disabling radio sets), and swamp the populace with compulsory listening to repetitive slogans, buzz phrases. all promoting a 1000 year. reign. getting all his timing wrong too. bsw
