  Cancer in Animals

  by Normalfulla in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we were taught sickness and death is a result of the sin inherited from adam and eve, so why do animals get cancer?

  they are supposedly still as big j intended, so therefore cancer is a creation by the big fella himself?.

  just an exercise for one's who believe in the whole bible story thing.. (not me)... any others anomalies you can think of ?

  Seems the animal's Ancestors also sinned and inherited imperfection.

  Of course the Bible never mentions about this but we can get an answer in the new world. Just hang in there.

  Cart witnessing at the Toyota Grand Prix

  by Dagney in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  picture 185,000 people on the streets attending the biggest event in long beach.

  there is a main downtown street which is the only way into the grand prix.

  it’s chaos because it is not private property that can be contained; these are working boulevards with cars and people vying to get where they want to go.

  My Belief in Prayer

  by compound complex in

  2. beliefs

  my belief in prayer was once bolstered by my strong attachment to what i had read in aid to bible understanding.

  my having a part in its initial prep in the factory and, later, a detailed proofing of thousands of references to it made this bible dictionary an influence in my former life.

  please note this extract on jehovah's seeming delay in the answering of prayer.

  When I was a DUB and whenever I came across a soul that is suffering, a quick flash would hit my mind. Why does Jah permit this and remain silent? Why can’t he alleviate this suffering?

  Very soon the usual Celtic thinking kicks in. "Jah permits suffering to prove his Universal Sovereignty" What a crap of a belief.

  The destruction of "Babylon the Great"

  by Sour Grapes in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i read the talk outline #49 for this summer's regional convention entitled "future events that will require courage-the destruction of babylon the great.".

  the jdubs live in a comic book world.

  babylon the great is all false religious organizations and she is destroyed by those she seeks to control.

  So the United Nations would be banning all the religions including Islam. And you mean Saudi Arabia and all Muslim countries would remain silent.

  What a fantastic illusion !!

  Armageddon started...

  just joking i really don't think so...but the situation in syria is pretty worrisome...just hearing the news that france and great britain are attacking with cruise missiles in 72 hours.

  i mean assad is not gonna gasify his adversaries when he almost won the civil war.

  trump too suspended a very important trip to the latinoamerican presidents summit in peru, just to 'oversee the american response to syria.

  Wars had always been fought since mankind formed its own countries and borders. Wars fought during our lifetime creates more impact on us as we really see/hear/Read about them.

  Even if the Syrian war escalates into a global one, that has nothing to do with the Bible.

  But (Some) Christians would always find ways to tie up the situation with any verses from their Holy book. Its all about creating panic and Pulling people into religion.

  It’s Stupid That JWs Wont Recognize Birthdays Yet If A Baby Is Born They Will Give Gifts!

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a witness can’t celebrate and give gifts on a birthday except on the day they are born.

  giving a baby shower is ok as well as gift giving—- but only once!

  soooo dumb!.

  Every book of WT gets stranger and crazier as time passes by.

  A Book they publish today would be silly for JWs themselves in another 10 years

  Truth is what is told Today, according to WT

  God wipes out humans/wickedness in Noah's Flood but somehow wickedness returns

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  genesis 6: 9-139 this is the account of noah and his family.noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked faithfully with god.

  10 noah had three sons: shem, ham and japheth.11 now the earth was corrupt in god’s sight and was full of violence.12 god saw how corrupt the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways.

  13 so god said to noah, “i am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them.

  I do not offend anyone anymore like “I worship the true god, and you worship the devil”

  Absolutely realized my role in this universe. Only one and a brief life. Nothing thereafter. Makes my life more valuable

  No need to hurry up home after work, get ready for the meetings – all to hear a 2 hour Nonsense

  Saturday and Sunday mornings are the most delightful now, as it was in my childhood. A lot of fun whole day.

  No Field service to go and vomit some silly and ridiculous lies, pretending they are true and feel ashamed about it.

  No need to prick my brain with questions like “Why good people don’t accept the Truth”. “Why does god allow suffering”

  A lot more socializing. Wishing people on their Birthdays and Festivals and participating, which gives more Connectivity and happiness

  NO need to validate myself on every actions like “What if this pleases/Displeases Jehovah”

  Laughing off at all the religious ridiculousness of people.

  Yes, to Summarize, a lot more happier.

  Religion is an illusion. Everything striving to catch the wind.

  I don't think you may find something such as the "True Religion"

  Well if you would like to live in a Bubble - Knowingly - then all the best !! You may find something that suits you.
