  A film about Jonah

  by Sergey Antonov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  who has any thoughts about the new film about the prophet jonah?

  how could they divide the entire period into days, if the bible does not say so?

  the king ordered them to fast 20 days before the destruction ???!

  I know WT likes to call allegories "the account of Jonah and the big fish" "the account of this and that" etc, but, shhh guess what it's a story, it's not real and was never meant to be real.

  Apostasy Reviews on Rotten Tomatoes ... Spot the JW LOL!

  by Exelder in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  on rotten tomatoes, apostasy has 100% success from critics (very rarely that critics are unanimous in their approval of a film) and 97% from the audience.

  i have loved reading the reviews as they are almost all ex jw's but there is one glaring review that is almost certainly from one active jw who is pleading that the film be banned, even though they haven't actually seen it (typical) and it made me laugh:.

  Nothing more pathetic than fools who think they are grand except maybe the minions that obey them.

  If You Told A JW That His Religion Was “False Religion “ What Would Be His Response?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  witnesses are used to saying that every other religion but their own makes up “false religion “....how would a devout witness handle being labeled as a member of a false religion??

  ?.

  well today marks the beginning and biggest day of our protest at the london excel.. we believe it's a record number at around 100 exjws at the front door.. we spoke to lots of jw's and one young man studying who has quit after talking to us.

  we've been approached privately by jw's who thanked us for coming and the security at the event treated us very well.. if anyone wants to see some clips they are available on my channel the great apostate.. thanks to all for the support and love..

  Why are they announcing 2019 conventions so early?

  by Richard_I in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was just told there will be international conventions in canada in 2019. .

  so i looked at jw.org and i see that there's a whole bunch of conventions now listed on the site for 2019.. isn't this odd?

  normally we were told the location of conventions during the first week of january.. did they realize there was less in attendance in the 2018 conventions, and want to give ppl more time to make travel arrangements??

  by nowwhat? in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  just sayin' btw what's so special about these anyway?

  all it is, is inviting rich delegates from other countries to hear the same thing.

  now here in cleveland as noted, there has been a lot of k.h.closings and consolidations.

  JW-RUSSIA.org cross image

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was just browsing the russian jw site and saw this image that appears to represent christian persecution by showing handcuffs in front of prison bars that appear to form a cross.

  which would be weird because they don't even believe in the cross, or maybe it was clip art from another source and they didn't notice.

  or last and most likely i'm seeing things that aren't there 😜.
