    "yeah but it can't be denied--no doubt we're seeing the fulfillment of Jesus prophecy about the last days...so the Bible has some merit! So at the culmination of all this wickedness,what situation will you be in? You haven't given ANY thought to that????"

    Actually, it can be denied. If you examine the evidence, you'll see what I mean.

    Well, truthfully I was never a jw (just an unbaptized born-in) but since tat was all I knew for the first 20 or so years of my life I can understand your fear. But because I know the jw truth to be a totally lie I have no fear what god may think of me for leaving.

    In answer to your last question, taking it literally and not relating it to the thread title, YES !!!

    I think you need to do a lot more reading and thinking Msgrowing, read LWT's first post above properly for a start.

    Then read old threads on here, use the search button, and you will soon see that the prophecies attributed to Jesus, the Gospels, and the Book of Revelation and much more are not to be taken as the WT presented them.

    We are not living in the Time of the End, we are living in what we call the 21st Century, which is high time we stopped reading into the work of goat herders 2000 years ago or more , some sort of message for us.

    It is high time too we stopped believing in anything for which there is no proof, a realist, naturalist view of the universe is a much better way to look at things.

    Why do you keep changing the question, GrowingGirl?

    Why not accept everyone's answers to your original question and stick to that topic, at least for now?

    yeah but it can't be denied

    Yes, it can.

    no doubt we're seeing the fulfillment of Jesus prophecy about the last days

    No, we aren't

    so the Bible has some merit!

    No, it doesn't.

    You are seeing what you want to see, and trying to attach great significance to completely arbitrary events. And you are attempting to use these assertions as proof to validate a belief system that is completely unprovable.

    all jw's would be destroyed

    This question implies that you believe 'God' is playing a huge game of Gotcha!, in which people with incorrect beliefs will be destroyed, even if they are good people who follow the Golden Rule. This concept of God is promoted by cults, high-control groups and religious fundamentalists. If you examine why you believe this, it's most likely because of WT indoctrination and literature.

    My life is better than when I was a JW. I am happier, calmer, more satisfied and I laugh and smile a lot more. I have not become dedicated to any other charitable pursuit. If I beleve that the door to door work is beneficial (I do not) then I would believe that I am more selfish now than then. (do you like that james_woods? I do and I don't care it takes a lot of work charity to self I say to not care what they think) Wibble needs no pouncuationimo. KLeave it! I shall make a transport!

    Oh, sorry.

    Dear Broken Promises, it is her thread and her line of thought. Dear MsGrowingGirl, I think it is OK to branch out on your thread. It is yours.

    There is no Armageddon... at least not the WT's interpretation of a so-called Armageddon.

    But assuming God does intend to commit global genocide, it won't because people are going to wrong church.

    nope broken promises.....I cannot believe that persons haven't really thought about it...and it's the same question---i was just clarifying for persons who misunderstood.......

    somehow i get the feeling that this is a question that a lot of people have doubts about...and may even be scared to face

    the same witnesses that you always bad mouth just might be in a better position based on FAITH and CHRISTIAN WORKS AND BEHAVIOUR with Almighty God than you free people????
