    And yes, the Churches I visited (many different denominations) do train their members for ministry all over the world.
    And just how much longer do you reckon I will have to wait before they make contact with me and my neighbors. Do you think that a simple "Welcome" placed on a marquee outside the front of the Church is what Jesus' instructions amounted to? Or maybe merely an advertisement in the local newspaper?

    Another thought. The borg is so busy "training" its members to go from door to door, which in this day and age is the absolutely least efficient way to contact people. Why not use tv, or the internet (snicker) radio, etc. That is, if the real purpose is to reach people. Other churches use means that reach more people in an hour than witnesses reach in a month in all of North America. Of course, that would cost money.
    I don't see how you can really say that. Direct contact with people has to be the most effective way of making disciples, because the student's progress can be monitored. And there's nothing better than personal contact. Besides, in most cases, someone watching a religious program on TV is not likely going to result in their joining a group of Christians at some place of "worship".

    Friday,
    You said,

    The WTS is the closest thing to the restoration of true worship that exists on the face of the earth today, all it needs now is to be perfected.

    I say BULLSHIT! Worship should be both in Spirit, and in Truth, something the Society has NEVER known. Pure religion consists of caring for widows and orphans, something the society has never done. So again I say BULLSHIT!

    You ask,

    And just how much longer do you reckon I will have to wait before they make contact with me and my neighbors.
    You say you have the gospel, so why should it be preached to you? The fact is the Catholic Church is doing and has done more to reach those who've never heard the gospel than has the JW's. The Baptists can make the same claim, as can the Lutherns and most other denominations. The bible doesn't say go door to door in the manner that you JW's do regardless of what the Society tells you. However, having said that I've gone door to door with the gospel as a Catholic, and I know others that have done it too.

    If the Society's version of God is how God really is, he ain't much of a god.

    If the WTS was the seat of true worship on the earth today, it would indeed be perfect and a perfection of the organization is not something you would have to wish for. The fact that it is so obviously imperfect despite its claims to the contrary is what gives rise to its enemies.
    You are as wrong as Satan is. Plus, the Bible itself argues against your claim here. Of course you, no doubt, refuse to believe in either one of them.

    Enough of your profanity! Go clean your rifle, and see if that helps to relieve your frustration with life.

    You say you have the gospel, so why should it be preached to you?
    That's a stupid question, Yeru. Got any more of them? Sure you do, you always do.

    To address your stupid question: Sure I have the "gospel", but do those of your religion know that? Right on, that's exactly the way they operate ... just assume that everybody has it somehow or other.

    The fact is the Catholic Church is doing and has done more to reach those who've never heard the gospel than has the JW's. The Baptists can make the same claim, as can the Lutherns and most other denominations.
    I know, Yeru, that's precisely why they've contacted me thousands of times in the past. Oh yeah!

    The bible doesn't say go door to door in the manner that you JW's do regardless of what the Society tells you.
    Is there a Christian law against such a thing? Doesn't it only make sense that Christians, in obedience to Jesus' instructions to "go make disciples", would do just that ... go to those potential "disciples" ... go to where they live?

    However, having said that I've gone door to door with the gospel as a Catholic, and I know others that have done it too.
    You and "others" that you know of have done that, huh? I've listened to your arguments before about this, Yeru, and I've never been impressed with them. How did you and your “others” manage to miss me and my neighborhood?

    Yadirf,
    This is not a good day for your crap.
    Maybe some other time would be more appropriate


    Well, considering Today is Friday, and Yadirf is Friday spelled backwards, thank God it is Friday, and we'll have to let him post because it's his Day.

    Jehovah's Witnesses are to "true religion" what Yadirt is to a decent human being.

    The JW organization and Yadirt are demonstrated liars, they have no respect for other humans, both are egotistical and arrogant beyond measure, and each is impervious to rational thought. They are bloated physically and with self-importance. It's no wonder Yadirt thinks the JW are so wonderul -- he's just like them.

    Satan is a convenient excuse for them to avoid self-examination.

    I second that statement with every fiber of my body.

    However, you may have to define what, exactly, is a decent human being. I have a feeling Yadirf hasn't met one face to face in a while.

    Yadirf -

    In your original post you indicate that Satan's confinement to the vicinity of the Earth is still to come. Doesn't this undermine much of the Watchtower's chronology?

    It's hard to define "decent human being", Mindfield. Defining the opposite is no easier, but it's kind of like trying to define porn -- you know it when you see it, so it's rather subjective.

    I know that when I read one of Yadirt's posts I usually come away feeling like I've accidentally stepped in pig shit. It's the same feeling I get when reading a Watchtower article justifying killing children via the blood issue, or reading the Society's jw-media website where they tell outrageous lies about their beliefs in order to hoodwink the public.
