I was closely associating with a Brother who would even murder apostates, if the WT says so. I thought it was zeal but now realize its a serious mental issue.
Happy I am away from him now.

here we go again another will known public figure being abusive towards women.

as heart breaking it is i am glad it is coming out.

it takes a brave person to bring these things out.. could this be the catalyst that may expose the wt.
EverApostate

Since all morning today, this news of him being terminated had been told again and again in NBC, as if some real tragedy has happened. I think the termination was appropriate for the behavior, but why the repeated News about this ?
Sorry NBC, you are losing my respect.

Waton, No I dont mind being hijacked. Both you and Island man are discussing some scientific concepts and not some religious non sense. I am educated on your discussions and am happy about that.

waton, If I am right, I could sense your anger in bashing out the Bible with your humorous yet sensible points. Same here too. I was fooled for 11 years by the WT in believing all such nonsense.
And I (Thought) had great debates with "Worldly people" in discussing all these garbage.

The problem with this story is that the earth must be flat for it to work. From a tall mountain it is impossible to see "all the kingdoms." Even standing on Mt. Everest, the tallest mountain on earth, the farthest you could see is 250 miles to the horizon [ref]. Yet we know that at the time of Jesus, there were thriving kingdoms in China, India, South America, Europe, etc. So clearly this story could not have happened.
If you had been a JW, you may know how the WT has twisted this account to seem more reliable.
In WT book “Greatest man who ever lived”, this account is stated that Satan showed all the Kingdoms of the earth through some miraculous means. They gloss over the actual Biblical saying that Satan took Jesus to the top of the mountain to show all the Kingdoms of the Earth.
WT was so ashamed to accept the Geological ridiculousness of the account and hence twisted this to seem more practical. That is my conclusion. Anyone with more thoughts?

Satan in Heaven

this has always baffled me.

that is why was satan and his demons allowed to be in heaven for so long after they split from god?.

if we did that then we are out of the congregation, members are shunned and also kicked out of families homes.

Yet here we have Jesus and Satan out and about for the day, a high mountain would have taken a long time to climb. They would have had to stop and eat dinner together. Maybe helped each other climbing tough parts of the route
Superb sense of Humor. Made my day. May be that is why WT advises often to meditate about Bible Events.
Mary Magdalene would have packed them lunch and Snacks or they would have stopped at McDonalds.

Bible adds to confusion

when we become confused, we would naturally look to god’s guidance.

see what happens if we turn to the bible.. .

1) noah became drunk and lay uncovered inside his tent.
EverApostate

Yes, Bible adds to confusion and may even become lethal.
For Ex: If you are sick, go to the church priests who would cure you with magical oil. (don't go to the Doctor)
Christians may spin this with a symbolic meaning. No, I had enough of it
