Atheism and the delusion of meaning
by Laika inin the movie annie hall, written by woody allen, as a young boy, alvy's mother, takes him to see a doctor as he appears to be dealing with some kind of depression.
when the doctor asks alvy what's up, alvy explains that he just found out the universe is expanding, everything will spread out and go cold and die, therefore nothing he does matters, so he is not going to do anything anymore.
most people might see this as a joke, but i think woody is trying to make a serious point.. the point here is about meaning.

Sparlock is helping Mormons
by cedars incheck out this awesome video - part 7 in a series where a mormon uses the witnesses as a proxy to figure out why his own faith is wrong.. sparlock, hassan's bite model, and even the 2013 "human apostates" convention talk all make cameos.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmesmlhydru.

Know your place..
by The Quiet One inthis weeks watchtower study contains an image that depicts the hierarchy of the org, with the picture showing god and the angels, followed by the governing body directly underneath heaven.. and the rest descending further away from it.. (check the following link, my description isn't the best.
) "the earthly part of jehovahs organization includes: 1.the governing body 2.branch committees 3.travelling overseers 4.bodies of elders 5.congregations 6.individual publishers very subtle.. http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/w20130415/do-not-tire-out/.

by Cold Steel inthe day finally comes.

Jehovah's Witnesses, size, and the true religion
by Laika ina lot of the arguments jehovah's witnesses make in favour of their religion can only work because they are a very small religion and are spread so thin.
nowhere in the world do jws make up any kind of majority or even significant minority in any country or city.
considering how jws would have to work with larger populations exposes these arguments, for example:.

JEHOVAH and the TROJAN horse
by Terry inboth men and women and whole nations are destroyed by a single wrong.
the word "yes!".
the cleverness of the wrong is hidden in the camouflage of inverted morality.. willing participation is the entrance.. .

Falling asleep whilst praying..
by punkofnice inwhen i believed in jehovah(tm), i'd pray to him at night.
i'd doze off.. i remember admonition from the podium that it was disrespectful to doze off during our personal prayers to imaginary sky god jehovah(tm).. i'd wake up.
say sorry to jehovah(tm) then either carry on grovelling or just end it.. one thing's for sure, asleep or awake, pray or not it makes no difference........no one's listening!.

Please clear up a confusion I have Do Christians believe that the AntiChrist will be Satan the Devil in human form?
by booker-t infor years i have been told different scenarios from different christian groups about who the antichrist will be.
some born agains have told me that the antichrist will be satan the devil stripped of all his powers and trapped in a human body on earth.
he will still have the same attitude and try to get people to worship him instead of jehovah and jesus.
