I believed WT when it said that the bible was ahead of modern science because of a scripture in Isaiah which refers to "the circle of the earth" now after a bit of research have found that the writer of Isaiah refers to a "ball" in chap 22 of the same book and "circle" as mentioned in the first example can be translated "disc." So the ancients who wrote Isaiah were calling the earth a circle not a ball and most definitley NOT in agreement with modern science.
If WT were such pedants for the bible they would be pointing this out loudly and proudly because that's what the bible actually, really, truly says. No, they cherry-pick to suit their agenda like all other religions do.
I used to think religion basically had good intent with the inevitable human factor of coruption creeping in.
I now believe all religions to be different routes to the same end and that end has nothing to do with salvation, hope, charity but rather exploit people by making money out of their search for pupose and need for social connection and to control them.
I now believe that if you want a purpose, to help people, to have a social or even so called "spiritual" connection you absoutely do NOT need to go through a religion to have those things. I don't think I will turn out to be wrong on this one.
