  So let's discuss the framework of gods plan for a paradise earth

  by nowwhat? in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so after jehovah kills 8 billion people "for not knowing him'" he is going to resurrect 100 billion humans because " they didn't know him" .

  the 8 million jw's will be tasked with educating these ones.

  that's 1 jw for every 12k resurrected ones.

  No one knows how He will do it

  That says it all ,he/she believes in God the magician. You don`t need facts you don`t need evidence ,you just need faith that God knows how he will do it.

  All superstitious nonsense .

  I strongly suspect that when the police are informed of a child abuse case among the JW`s its not the Elders who do so, but a third party who informs them and sometimes non JW`s who do.

  I seperated myself from Jehovah`s Witnesses ,God , and the Bible, because of what the Bible reveals about what sort of being God is.

  If it really is Gods word , then her/his own words condemn him / her .

  You would think they would throw him to the wolves to protect their image ? What they do (or don`t do ) just makes them look worse .

  found out on fb friday .

  not sure if anyone else found out, but i take long breaks from the exjws movement.

  had to do a serious search for her name, because she wasnt as active on jwn anymore...not sure how she passed but her sister said (according to another ex jws) that she had been sick for a while.. i met her once here in milwaukee, had a great time hanging out with her.

  i just watched this movie today and still not sure what to make of it .. did / do these people really believe what they preached ?

  on the one hand i would say they did ,however on the other hand they knew religion was a gold mine for them .. and their lifestyle how they live reflected that .. and i can see the gb of the wt in it for the same reasons but they do it without all of the theatrics that these televangelists seem to thrive on.. i look forward to your thoughts on the movie..

  JWs who are now paying the price of following the cult.

  my in-laws are two such people.

  people who pioneered and did not work and try to save, instead they made just enough to get by and waited for the end to come.

  now my mil is in palliative care and the state is paying for her keep, my fil lives in a dilapidated home and can not keep it up.

  I find it ironic that JW`s paints Christendom as the counterfeit to true Christianity and then has to rely on Christendoms aged care homes to live in as they get older.
