Exodus 35:2 Six days work shall be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on it shall be put to death.
I found a whole lot of people not observing the Sabbath last weekend.

If they want to lock the doors of KH during meetings for security reasons, then what the heck are those legions of angels doing ?

Trump's concubines -- so what? Jehovah loved Solomon and he had 10,000
by ElderEtta inwhat say you.

Please don’t defame King Solomon. He only had 700 wives and 300 concubines. Good enough for a person to write the Bible.
Even if he spends a day with one of these women - being an equal opportunity hubby - it would take 2.7 years for Solomon to come back to the same women again. Am I wrong in my Holy Math ? Not guided with Holy Spirit hence pardon me if I am wrong.

The people who decided the Scriptures
by Doug Mason inmany people over many centuries have been involved in deciding which documents were scripture.
there has never been unanimous agreement, including today.
only the church of rome took a vote on the canon.

God interferes with the people in middle east (Why always Middle east. What’s so special there ?)
An then God Inspires his people - most of them anonymous- to write a collection of books, in very crude parchments and none of the originals exist today.
Centuries later the Roman aristocrats decide on which books to include and what to exclude, in what we call the Bible today.
For another 1500 years the Bible was circulated through handwritten copies, until the printing press came.
Then the Bible was further diversified into various versions, each version being claimed as the accurate ones, by their adherents.
And today, people have a responsibility of identifying the very true version and follow that to attain eternal life.
I don’t think the Biblical God is doing a good job here.

JW kids are dragged into FS and meetings during the weekend and flatly deprived of the Joyful games they would be playing otherwise
And these thugs illustrate their corporate goals with a Football game.

New abbreviation POMOSI
by NeedToKnow ini was thinking that i’m not exactly pomo but more pomosi - physically out mentally out spiritually in.. anyone who is familiar with the life of raymond franz may understand what i mean.
so i haven’t been to meetings in a while and i’m so over the whole mind control thing but i do love jehovah and believe in his purpose for us.
the org doesn’t go about it properly imo so i have been doing my own reading and understanding.

As far as my understanding, being spiritual is very much associated with beliefs about the non-existing things. In plain terms "Superstitious"

I have a JW habit I forgot to tell in my previous comment.
JWs are trained to provide a witness at every opportunity.
Yes, I continue that and use every opportunity to sow seeds of doubts in JWs now.

I pretty much trained myself to do anti-JW things after I left. I do everything thats in your list. Never got a blood transfusion, as it was never needed so far.
I think the reason for me getting over this is, I educated myself more about Evolution, religions and God and came to an absolute certainty that all religions are frauds and Evolution is fact.

If there is an Almighty god, why can’t he write his name in the space out there, by any means and irrefutably prove that he exists and has a name too.
Why all this commotion
Also, I see people here mentioning about "False Gods", as if a true god has been undeniably proven to Exist.

Sorry to hear all those affected by the cult.
Luckily I was baby during 1969, raised by protestant parents who gave me the best childhood ever.
When I was in the cult, an elder came and counseled me that I am too materialistic and should think of quitting my fair paying job to go for a menial one, as I could do more in the FS non sense.
Thank myself, I never listened to him as I always had the doubt that this is all a scam.
