Jesus Creates a Monster
by fulltimestudent ini recently found this image of jesus, with a caption, a reminder of past stupidity in believing that kind, loving jesus, would (on behalf of old yhwy) look after me when he 99% of the people on this earth.. .
in case you're wondering i found it on a pinterest page.. proverbs 8, of course.

That was hard viewing FTS . I hate animal cruelty in any form.
Every living thing on this planet does so by the mostly violent death of another living thing.
God is love ? I don`t think so ,and neither can Jesus be as it means he has been complicit in all of the atrocious things God has done in the Old Testament.
That is ,if you believe in th Bible in the first place.

Welcome Debra lets get to know you a little better, and you us . I know as a JW we went in cold turkey trying to "befriend" the householders we met at the doors in FS and we had an agenda not to be their friends but to convert them .
This really is a good forum debra I hope you stick around.

why they believe that is now Russia as the King of the North ?
During the cold war they believed and taught that the U.S.S.R. was the king of the North .
And after the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. was disbanded it lay in limbo for a time .
Now its Russia? I think they would be better off saying its China, with her military build up/expansion taking place.

Is There Life On Mars?
by LoveUniHateExams inno, i'm not talking about the david bowie song, i'm asking does life exist on mars?.
opportunity rover (the one before the present one) took photos of strange, puffball-like sphericals seemingly sprouting on the martian surface.. these photos aren't conclusive evidence but it is an exciting area to investigate.. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-9546225/scientists-claim-evidence-fungi-red-planet.html .

Significant Changes Happening - Even Though Many May Not Realize
by JWTom ini posted this item a few weeks ago (link below) with a compilation of items that could happen as the organization unravels - even though many (including myself) may find it unlikely, improbable or simply too much of a change to believe.. https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5165806634663936/drastic-upcoming-changes-accelerated-pandemic.
as an active pimo though, i came up with the list in the above post simply from the standpoint that very significant changes have been occurring on an ongoing basis and sometimes i think even very active witnesses do not realize it.
a few major items that have been ongoing or were singular events listed below.

It would be very interesting to listen in on a GB meeting and how they will try to come up with some "New Light" to explain away their present predicament and keep the R&F interested and active members without the risk of losing more and more people.
