Shucks...we haven't made it to Z!!!
I'M WONDERING IF WE CAN ADD TO OR CORRECT THIS LIST:
There are a number of things that don't make sense to me about your religion
For example:
a. Blood Prohibitions:
-
plasma...when all components of plasma are acceptable to the Society.
-
white blood cells...when millions are found in mothers milk, and
millions are transferred in allowable organ transplants
-
storing blood... when JWs allow their blood to be stored in tubes for
testing but will not allow blood to be stored otherwise.
-
donating blood... when JWs can use fractions of sinfully donated
blood stored by non-JWs.
b. Claim that less than
150,000 faithful Christians existed prior to the 20th century
....when allegedly millions were martyred during the first 3
centuries of the common era alone.
c. Claim that the religion
of JWs is biblical...when its foundations are completely based on
speculation involving names dates and places not found in scripture.
d. Claiming unique ability
to interpret scripture...when interpretation of prophecy has been
100% wrong for over 130 years.
e. Claiming unique
direction from Jehovah...when JW lives have been endangered and lost
due to medical prohibitions which are no longer applied.
f. Claim that the
innumerable Great Crowd are all Jehovah's Witnesses....yet there are
only 8 million JWs worldwide; a number we can all count.
g. Claim that the wild
beast of Revelation is the United Nations...yet the WT joins and
supports the UN for 10 years as an NGO so that they can get a library
card.
h. Claim that non-JWs who
die just before the tribulation will be raised and given a chance to
gain eternal life .... whereas those same people, if they are still
around months later will be eternally destroyed at Armageddon.
Everything depends on when you die.
i.
Claim that it is wrong to make oaths of allegiance in support of
one's country and its political values yet your leaders
unhesitatingly sign oaths of allegiance to get their US passports.
j.
Claim that the 1914 generation will not pass away when the youngest
of the 1914 generation are 104 years old today?
k.
Claim that he Daniel prophecy of 2,520 360 day prophetic years
magically become 2,520 solar years to reach the magic year of 1914.
l.
Claim: that the "7 trumpets of Revelation chapters 8 - 11"
were 7 talks given at Bible Student conventions in the 1920s.
j.
claim: Although Jesus said no man knows the hour, JWs have
been trying to prove him a liar for over 100 years.
k.
claim: Although Jesus commanded Christians to partake of the emblems
of His death, 99.9% of JWs are not to obey this instruction.
l.
Claim: that they care about children who are sexually abused by
members, yet will do nothing to protect them from these pedophiles
unless there are two or more witnesses to the abuse.
m.
Claim: that they care about justice for pedophiles while encouraging
parents of abused children not to report matters to police unless
required by law...showing they are more interested in protecting the
image of the organization.
n.
Claim: The GB is chosen and directed by God and must be believed
even though they are fallible and have a long history of mistakes
and flip-flop on doctrines such that the religion is unrecognizable
from what it was 10 years ago.
