  Does Christianity Promote Self Hatred?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i think that christianity's teachings pose a very unproductive world view and are a danger to our survival.

  their teachings that man is sinful and worthy of death and in need of a savior to rescue him and free him of his sinful tendencies or else feel the wrath of god.

  these things that condemn man as sinful are his own powerful drives given to him at conception which he now must deny due to indoctrination and consign to his shadow(jungian).

  Obviously, it does. Jesus told to hate oneself (and his family) and come after him.

  i was at a mall trying on shoes and this old man is in a wheelchair near me.

  says how he thought those shoes were sharp and he had never worn brown shoes before and that he is 104 years old.

  i said no way and asked what year he was born.

  Smiddy:

  Lazarus died he paid the price for Adams disobedience ,sin.

  He was resurrected to life ,so by all accounts he should be free of the Adamic sin that condemned all of humanity to death so he should still be alive walking around among us right ?

  This is what I asked the dubs when I woke up and before I got disassociated. Only got blank stares. I still ask the same to any JW or a christian that I come across

  As per Bible's sin redemption formula, Lazarus should be alive today as a living example of resurrection and eternal life. All the scientists of the world should have experimented on Lazarus and unanimously agreed that his cells replicate themselves perfectly, with anti aging properties and there is no way he could die. Lazarus should have been given an accommodation in the Watchtower suites and should give Public talks all around the world, about his resurrection testimony and his enormous life experiences for 2017 years or so...(Unless other christian denominations snatch him)

  just approached a cart then with two jw girls holding out mags.

  they continued chatting to each other about car insurance when i took the watchtower from one of their hands.. ok, so it looks like i'll have to get the ball rolling.

  i asked if they were jehovahs witness.

  Almost 90% Of JWs are embarrassed about their own beliefs and are always hesitant to open up a conversation to the public and they all do it for counting hours only. This was my experience in the Cult and I had also been doing the same.

  Welcome Smiddy

  Cold Steel. Thanks for your long explanation but anything from the Bible doesn't impress me now, as I had found it to be a collection of myths and superstitions, a long time ago

  Singapore is a tiny, beautiful and economically powerful country in SE Asia. All religions are allowed there except the Jehaovah's Witnesses and another Christian denomination. JWs are banned because they don’t serve the military and all Singapore Citizens are required to serve in the military for a while.

  The JWs are banned in Singapore since 1972.

  Jehovah being such a powerful GOD, (As we all once believed), cant remove the ban in Singapore for his most important preaching work. If this JW religion is all real, Cant Jah lift the ban in Singapore in no time. All the Babylonian religions are free to Practice there but not the true Religion, worshiping the true Almighty god.

  There is a huge Hindu temple in Singapore, dedicated to Lord Muruga, a prominent Indian God. I can only conclude that Jehovah is less powerful than Muruga, assuming both GODs are real.

  Jehovah, the almighty owner of this Universe, is not allowed in a tiny nation. Poor thing, this Jah!

  can anyone point out any articles where it mentions this?

  any help would be appreciated.

  When I was in , I was advised that the Governing Body members are equivalent to qualified research Scholars and know everything and we should only stick on to their Explanations, no matter even if we don't understand them.

  In their terminology, Research means digging it from their own publications. This sounded weird to me even then, and may be that's why I turned out to be an Apostate.
