  i asked the question on quora: .

  if the governing body abandoned the 1914 teaching, would you leave jehovah's witnesses or you would remain a member regardless?.

  IT takes courage and some common sense to get out of the cult. JWs are brainwashed to supress those.

  Why people wont leave, no matter what happens. Its all in one word. FEAR.

  Why does your religion demand your preaching hours to be reported. Does the Bible ever mention that ?

  Do you keep a record of the time you spend with your loved ones ? Wouldn't that be silly ?

  Isn’t reporting time, a corporate arrangement (To get paid basically)

  One aspect of the Bible I still greatly benefit from

  by Ireneus in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  though many things in the bible do not make sense to me, there is something in it that makes my life easy.. this is how i arrived at it.

  bible defines god as the servant of his children because he makes provisions for the enjoyment of life in abundance (mathew 5:44-47) and ‘renews’ them if need arises (mathew 19:28) with no intervention whatsoever in between which means he is not interested in gratitude/worship from his children.

  yet history shows that people forget him in happiness and remember him only in distress which means he is not given love (though he is the giver of love), and he is not bothered of it.

  Suffering starts the moment a child is born, and may be even before that. Until modern medicine were invented, survival was a daily struggle, with the Unknown diseases, germs, viruses and so on. Life span was hardly 40, a few centuries before

  Evil (as we perceive it), is even present in the animal Kingdom. Members of the same species violently attack and kill their own species, either for territory, food or for a mating partner.

  Every species is built up of intrinsic Organs that even if one fails or malfuntions, life would be hell.

  With the above facts, and presuming that God created us,I would disagree that “He makes provisions for the enjoyment of life in abundance“

  Overwhelmed

  by Freedom rocks in

  2. beliefs

  does anyone else feel overwhelmed on what to believe?.

  i've been doing lots of research on beliefs, evolution, creationism but i feel no further forward about what i truly believe.

  for example i looked at the fossil record and tiktaalic and thought great it proves a lot but then i've seen counter arguments on youtube of people basically saying its a load of rubbish and doesn't prove anything.

  Why do feel compelled to beleive in something. Take it EZ, analyse the facts, follow the Evidence, make the truth your own.

  question about the go bags.

  2. beliefs

  its been a minute since posting, have been trying to put this cult in my review mirror and just live life.

  but you know this beast rears it's evil head.

  my wife found my crisis of conscience book and out came the horns plus i guess what she is hearing at the meetings isn't helping either.

  Sometime during 2003, this go bag preparedness was announced in my KH in new Jersey. This was for some Hurricane that came during that time.

  I think the GB, takes these natural disasters to frighten the R&F about a (imaginery) greater impending danger –Armeggadon.

  I have a common sense question. Even if Armeggadon comes, can't Jah protect and feed his people with his mighty angels. Why these go bag stuff and unnecessary terror mongering ? CULT.

  Simple introduction to the theory of evolution

  hi new folks, lurkers and trolls.

  i thought i would post this simple but interesting video which shows how scientists bring multiple lines of evidence together to prove evolution is true; for example:.

  comparative anatomy.

  Perry,

  Since you recommend us to see the creation Museam, tell me this.

  THe Bible says that the Flood waters of Noah covered the Tallest mountains.

  Genesis6: 18 The waters rose and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water. 19 They rose greatly on the earth, and all the high mountains under the entire heavens were covered.

  So Even Mount Everest should have been under water. How did the People and species inside the ark breathe then ? To my understanding we need breathing equipment to breathe beyond a certain Altitude.

  Did Noah's flood Solve the Problem completely. Was evil got rid of thereafter ?
