  Do JW's still think Pleiades is God;s eteranal throne?

  by bob1999 in

  "the constellation of the seven stars forming the pleiades appears to be the crowning center around which the known systems of the planets revolve even as our sun's planets obey the sun and travel in their respective orbits.

  it has been suggested, and with much weight, that one of the stars of that group is the dwelling-place of jehovah and the place of the highest heavens....

  "the constellation of the pleiades is a small one compared with others which scientific instruments disclose to the wondering eyes of man.

  Have you ever been asked by witnesses if you have the internet?

  being inactive, not going to meetings, and having the internet is a nice combination.

  the last time i went to a meeting, a brother asked me if i had the internet... first of all, it was none of his buisiness, so i answered, "do you have it"?

  he said no.. i know elders who do have the internet, so what, big deal... so, it's ok for elders to have the internet and not ok for non elders to have it?.

  "We do't believe in war."

  i've heard this time and again from my j.w.

  sister-in-law and daughter.

  yet, when i found this hymn book, "sing praises to jehovah", i was shocked to find war songs in it, such as ... "gaining victory over the world", page 3.. "god's warriors are advancing", page 39.. "proclaiming jehovah's day of vengeance", page 189.. "see jehovah's army"!

  they proudly assert their beleif in the mass slaughter of the rest of humanity, especially apostates like you and me

  Yet they are taught to leave the judging up to 'Jehovah'. Unfortunately, that scripture is thrown out the window when someone speaks out against the 'organization'.

  Angels and Hells Angels have one thing in common; most people who know them don't admit it. The ones that do are wacko and end up being wacked.

  I was wondering where you were, and am glad that you're okay. Good advice too, about the political threads.

  Hope your health is well.

  A great free program for managing your pics...

  by Elsewhere in

  2. friends

  here is something that google is giving away... it is called picasa.

  it does a great job of organizing all of the pics on your computer into chronological and topical order.

  it also let's you use a few basic image editing tools such as red-eye reduction, cropping and enhancement.

  God mercilessly killed women and children, so why would he not want to kill you or me?

  There are many references in they're trashy bible called 'jehovah of armies'.
