  Study Watchtower confirms shunning spiritually weak. How nice!

  by Isambard Crater in

  it really hurt to hear brothers and sisters commenting about this at the meeting yesterday.. "as in solomon’s case, one of the greatest threats to spirituality is friendship with those who do not understand or respect jehovah’s standards.

  some may be associated with the congregation but may be spiritually weak.

  others could be relatives, neighbors, coworkers, or schoolmates who are not worshippers of jehovah.

  He is one horny SOB; how did he have time for anything but 'visits' with the wives and lovers??

  He should have written the Bible, surrounded by wives and concubines... Holy Work Indeed

  Solomon had 700 Wives and 300 concubines (Correct me if I am wrong in my math) and as the story goes, was influenced by them. (Why wouldn’t that happen?)

  
  And Almighty Jah allowed this greatest womanizer who ever lived, to write parts of the Bible and people fervently consider that holy.

  WT Recruiting JW Solicitors (Lawyers)

  by AverageJoe1 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we all know how much the watchtower abhors "higher education" and that apparently jehovah thinks it is a big waste of time.

  at least that is their official stance.

  it might come as a shock to you that this month they have started a campaign drive to actually recruit jws who have higher education, specifically those who have legal training.. with all the law suits against them for creating an environment that is friendly to paedophiles, it is thus no wonder that they are in need of solicitors, especially those who are sympathetic towards the cult.. talk about hypocrisy!.

  WatchTower = Jehovah's Organization

  So, Jehovah Needs lawyers. I was taught that he had legions of powerful angels who can accomplish Impossible feats.

  both ladies are in there early 60's and born in.. my heart started pumping, but i had to act.i was directly across the street from them.

  i walked right to the sidewalk and said in a very loud, but not mean voice: "you can't teach overlapping generations from the bible!!

  It’s a good thing you did to awaken them.

  Whenever I encounter a JW, by all means I try to have a peaceful conversation with them. Any angry or louder tone would make them think that we are angry apostate sinners.

  They think they have the Holy Spirit, which makes them behave politely. We should overrule that politeness with our calmness, and reasonable questions. I learned this from Randy’site sometime.

  Here's another subtle reverse-witnessing topic:

  2. friends

  the next time a jw brings up a natural disaster or severe weather event as proof of the last days, and they preface it by reciting a fact they heard on the news like, (just for the sake of example) 'it's the worst earthquake in 70 years' or 'the worst plague in 200' years', (you get the picture), then simply reply: "oh, so that means that ____ years ago there was one that was worse, right?".

  i did this twice.

  both times got the same response:.

  Predators prey on the weaklings of its prey. That is how JWs are trained. To take advantage of disasters and sufferings (Weakest situations) of others.

  Shame, I too had been doing this once.

  Critical thinking

  by Freedom rocks in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what kind of questions would you use to get a child'scritical thinking skills going from a young age with regards to the bible/god/jesus/anything to do with the religion??.

  my most hated answer jws gave to people when they said you can't see god so how do you know he exists was "well you can't see electricity or gravity but you know they exist".

  sorry but that doesn't prove god exists.

  "well you can't see electricity or gravity but you know they exist".

  Ok true.

  I can demonstrate anytime that Electricity works by turning on the Light and the room brightens up

  I can demonstrate anytime that gravity works when you throw a ball up and it comes down.

  Both these Experiments are immediately demonstrable,verifiable and tangible and can be done by anyone, anytime, anywhere.

  Is there something similar we can do to prove that God Exists. The Proof should be immediately demonstrable, verifiable and tangible at anytime, anywhere for everyone.

  God and the afterlife. Do you need to believe in both

  by moley in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i consider myself an atheist, i completely reject the idea of a totalitarian desert god/any god and the bible is a book of fairytales and folk legends.. i do however sort of believe that this life is not all there is.

  i’m not talking about heaven or hell but in a tangible state of being.. there are a few experiences i’ve had in my llife.

  could be imagined could be real.

  God(s) were created by humans. AfterLife is a wishful thinking of Humans.

  When you believe in Afterlife, you are deluding yourself by thinking that humans are a special species in nature and that they deserve an afterlife. That is not the case. Humans have evolved to use their brains in a much complicated way than any other species. That’s it.

  Otherwise nature treats every living thing equally. That is, every living thing suffers and eventually dies and is gone forever.

  How Long Before They Introduce Tithing?

  by pale.emperor in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when i was a full-on believing jw i had an obsessive fascination with mormonism.

  i read, studied and watched their propaganda with strange interest as well as their apostate mormon books.

  i have to say, they have a good scam going claiming that "the lord reintroduced tithing" in the modern age.

  FedUpJW, were you in the Writing department of Watchtower. That is so precise..

  I dread any letter like this, as my JW wife would take my earnings and donate to those goons
