I would like to see, which I wont of course, all of the posts from inception till whatever ,to be archived like an encyclopedia .
There is such a wealth of information discussed here with both apologists and ex JW`s having their say.
just my opinion.
isn`t there enough evidence to acknowledge the god of the bible has been a failure ?according to wt / jw teachings ?.
a god that has supposed to have created the visible universe and everything in it ?.
some points where i would challenge that from an earthlings point of view using the bible if only in paraphrase.. doesn`t god create everything perfect ?
As I have said ,I don`t believe in the God of the Bible or the concept of sin.If there is no God/sin; so your questions are irrelevant to me.

I don`t believe in the God of the Bible and I don`t accept the concept of sin .There is evil and crimes that are committed by humans just as the opposites are true
Sin is just a controlling tool used by religion.
exposing jehovah's witnesses on bbc news - youtube.
The more media expose the better in my book.
the jehovah's witnesses have formally signed up to the national redress scheme for survivors of institutional child sexual abuse, more than a year after they were named and shamed for holding out.the federal government has announced another 34 organisations have joined the compensation program, allowing 37 stalled applications for financial support to finally be processed.more than 11,800 redress applications have been received so far, with around half having been processed and almost $530 million in payments made.a total of 526 organisations have signed up to the scheme, along with the commonwealth and all state and territory governments.the jehovah's witnesses were one of six of the original hold-outs, named by social services minister anne ruston in june last year.access to government grants were cut off, and the government sought to challenge the charitable status and tax concessions offered to such organisations as a punishment.
"we think that these strong sanctions have obviously had an impact on the jehovah's witnesses reconsidering their decision not to join," senator ruston said.. read more: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-09-10/jehovahs-witnesses-sign-up-to-sexual-abuse-redress-scheme/100449204.
to beter understand the background:.
Access to government grants were cut off, and the government sought to challenge the charitable status and tax concessions offered to such organisations as a punishment.
"We think that these strong sanctions have obviously had an impact on the Jehovah's Witnesses reconsidering their decision not to join," Senator Ruston said.
It`s always about the money with Jehovah`s Witnesses and not their moral ethical obligations to the victims.
in the latest jw broadcast, anthony morris the turd gives a talk about donations.
to camouflage this, he starts and ends the talk by saying that isn't actually what he's doing.
first he starts with the usual disclaimer, 'wt has never begged for money like christendom and we never will', you know the drill.
Whatever happened to "they will never beg for money" ?
And if they ever did it would mean Jehovah has given up on them ?
nehemia gordon, in his book "shattering the conspiracy of silence", argues that "yehovah" is god's name pronunciation and it has never got completely lost, giving a linguistic explanation.
what do you think about that?.
I think that Jehovah`s Witnesses should at least try to pronounce a more correct pronunciation for God`s name than just blindly follow on with Catholic tradition using Jehovah.

God supposedly gave humans free choice , but there was a catch to it .If they used that free choice to not follow God they would be killed !
Doesn`t really sound like a free choice to me that anyone would take.
God`s definition of sin is anybody who disagrees with him .
The God of the Bible is a Dictator who you must obey or die.
Free will does`nt come into it without dire consequences for you.
