Biblical incidents that bothered me.

by EverApostate in

i wanted to discuss the (supposed) biblical events that disturbed me a lot when i was a jw.

these incidents were just read and discussed in the kingdom hall as if these are normal and justified, which clearly weren't.

perhaps this led to my awakening.

How dare you criticize God!

I am criticizing a fictional imagination that was created by ancient middle east tribes, which I too believed to be true once.

His wisdom is far surpassing to ours, so we should just keep our opinions to ourselves.

Yes, I can see God's wisdom that allowed a snake to talk and deceive the whole of mankind with so much of sufferings.

God's Wisdom is manifested by the terrible Earthquakes(Even one today), destructive tsunamis, Hurricanes, Floods, Landslides, volcanic eruptions, meteorite strikes... Do they

Wow. How many Great comments over the weekend. Sorry I was travelling. I liked this most

Also this whole belief system that in his perfect justice (that we can't question or even understand according to the GB) all the 6000 plus years of human existence filled with so much injustice and suffering - that he still watches it all and lets it continue on to wait on humans to realize he has the right to rule. If I worked for a boss that let bad things continue over and over again to happen and did not take control of the workplace properly I would rightly conclude that this boss does not have the right to govern.

Yes, the Bible has several incidents where the almighty becomes a Raving maniac. How come this is possible if he is the Epitome of love ? Losing patience and becoming angry on petty things are the worst of imperfections and yet the Almighty very often Succumbs to it.

Poor guy . I think there are no Anger Management classes in Heaven.

@problemaddict 2

In a personal discussion with an elder, I was told that BigJ would resurrect the (innocent) people that he himself killed like the first born of Egyptians, 70K killed due to Davids Census and so on.

Yes, And the ones like Sodom and Gomorroh wouldn't.

@allyson

Don't fall for the love Bombs that your congregation bestows upon you. Its all fake. And this religion is full of deceit and lies. I had personally experienced this.

@stillin

Right. I used to do the same when debating with any other JW or Christians. When I relate a Biblical Event with a similar experience they would provide normal feedback..

As soon as I say its from the Bible, they would go on with the Defensive crap like "God Knows best", "Nothing is evil in Gods Eyes", "Jah will resurrect even if he kills" and so on....

@Rattigan350 Thanks for pointing that out.

Anyway a person killed because of his good intention and action.

I heard from a talk in the KH, that Big J killed him because Uzzah mayhave had bad intentions and BigJ knows best because he is a reader of hearts. Amazing ring masters !!

Also, this fictional incident might have been written to implement implicit obedience.

@My Name is of No Consequence,

I use Big J as I don't want to play by the rules of WT - as if that name is Really Holy and as if it really exists.

What do you think is the origin of Giants and/or Sasquatch?

by The Real Edward Gentry in

jw
friends

genesis says a lot about both pre-flood and post-flood giants.the really big nasty ones drowned in the flood but there were lots of others the israelites had to overcome including the king of basham with his 11 foot iron bed.people nowadays are much smaller and i think its due in part to us losing more and more of adams perfection.

i turn my attention to the animals that went onboard the ark but are as yet undiscovered.

during president knorr's time the panda bear was discovered in a market place in china and eventually an american team tracked them down in the wild.
