...why have you left the god and his son?.
If i`m not mistaken and I don`t think I am , every living thing on this earth ,whether its on land , sea, or in the air ,lives by preying on and eating , any and other living thing it can get its teeth into .
And of course that also includes the insect world ,and the world that our human eyes cant see without microscopes.
THAT is the world you and I live in.
That doesn`t sound like a loving God that I want to worship .
A GOD of love ? Rubbish.
other churches give kids ice cream.
.
Not that I`m a believer anymore but at least I do recognize that other christian faiths do put their money where their mouth is and do charitable things ,and tangible things ,to help people and encourage them and are not afraid to spend money to do so.
In my 32 years as an active JW ,I have never known the organization of JW`s to part with one cent to help or encourage even the most frail and vulnerable loyal R&F member .
Fair enough their has been individuals in the congregations that have done so but never the organization of the WTB&TS / Jehovah`s Witnesses.
That made me laugh FUJW ,...,now there is irony right ?
That made me laugh again,and again.
my wife and i went to a restaurant we go to a few times a year.
we waited for a bit but not horrible to get our drinks and food.
the place was busy but not people waiting in line for a mile to get in busy.
I wouldn`t go back there again ,did you complain to the management ? maybe sometimes that`s all it takes for the management to give the staff a serve.
And if that didn`t work then find some other place to enjoy a nite out.
i know for a fact it would not start off with a talking snake, magical fruit, invisible beings that desire beautiful women to have sex with.. and it wouldn’t end with a flying dragon, a two horned lamb, locusts that resembled horses with men’s faces, but with women’s hair and teeth of lions.
and the book wouldn’t allow for hundreds of millions of religions to spurt from it.
i think the first thing a book written by god would have, is that it would be written in a way that all languages could understand without being translated.. regardless of what language you would speak, we could read it and understand what it said.
He / She would give absolute evidence-- proof He / She existed without having to just have faith that She / He existed .
And such a GOD would not leave humans at the mercy of an opponent of GOD for thousands of years to cause such misery to them.
And not dangle a carrot of hope in them that all in his good time he will do something about it and not before.
i`ll go first ,i have my vaccinated 2 jabs for the elderly.. if i`m not around in the next 3 months you will know why ..
I forgot to mention that I had the AZ double jab and will probably get the booster when it is available after 6 months ?
Neither my wife or I had any problems with the AZ dose`s ,and my son and DIL both had the Pfizer double dose and they never experienced any problems either.
Its a pity there is so much confusion and mixed messages about these vaccines out there and I don`t doubt the sincerity of either side of the debate but I guess we all just have to go with our gut feeling and trust our own judgement.
Both sides of the argument claim to have the science on their side .
Did I have concerns about getting the Jab ? yes.
Did I have concerns about not getting the jab .? yes

in september 1959, anne and i were invited to serve at bethel in paris, france, where i was assigned to take the lead in printing.
up until the time of our arrival in january 1960, printing had been done by a commercial firm.
since the watchtower was then banned in france, we printed the magazine each month in the form of a 64-page booklet.
Marcial your post went right over my head ?
And it is here that we see great insight when they create themselves the stick to beat
???
