how can the Jw's explain away the haiti earthquake?
by highdose ini'm sure they will get asked on the doors "how could god let this happen?".
i belive the standard answer is a fudged recitation of adam and eve, basicly meaning its ok that these people died becuase way back when, someone disobeyed god, and that makes it ok.... any other stupid jw explanations for this?.

The WTBS will get it's work done where there is the least expense and perhaps even less 'red tape' to doing things. I'm sure socialized medicine also played some part in it. All things are taken into account, and the most convenient way is the way the WTBS will go. They sure do their homework before taking such a big decision as this one is.

Something You Hate About The Jehovah's Witness Religion
by minimus inone thing that truly bothers me is that the religion forces you to accept an understanding they have expressed.
they might very well change their view and you simply have to accept the newest view or you are the bad guy!
the generation understanding has changed so much since its inception, how could any witness possibly be 100% sure that what they're told to believe in is "the truth"??.

I really dislike having to report monthly service activity; it forces me to make up stuff just to look in good standing. I really, really, really wish this would go away, but I doubt it ever will!

Were There Any JW Doctrines Or Beliefs That You Found Confusing?
by minimus inmost witnesses never could explain exactly who the "faithful slave" was (according to the society's explanation).
the resurection of the sodomites was another bewildering thing.
were they or weren't they going to be resurrected?

I find kind of confusing the doctrine of letting "things in God's hands for him to resolve", as opposed to taking anyone who broke some law to the courts.
I know that following this biblical mandate is the reason why some have neglected to report all sorts of abuse perpetrated by another JW. I don't agree with that stance.
Yeah, I find that kind of confusing. However, some time ago, there was a letter read in the congregation that stated that sexual predators were to be reported to the local authorities so that they face the punishment. I sincerely hope it was read worldwide and that they flock listened.

We've been through several disasters here in Florida, and the JWs have helped everybody, not only their own. Having said that, yes, they do concentrate and start out helping other JWs affected by the problem, but many others do receive the help as well.
One must understand the resources are limited and the Watchtower does the best they can. Also, at this time of need, the brothers and sisters won't just sit there, they'll start helping themselves and others as well.
The WTBS has received many praises as having one of the most organized ways to help the needy. I've been on both sides, giving help and receiving help, and I'll tell you, it's wonderful.

JW Apologists please tell me where your God was when .....
by wobble induring the dark days of the second world war , the monsters that ran a concentration camp decided to hang a child.. they hung the poor little chap so that it took half an hour for him to die, all the while making the other inmates look into the face of the child.. where was your god then ?
was he not strong enough to do anything or did he just not care ?.
if the first then he is a very weak god, if the second then,.

How does the WTS explain how the battle of Armageddon will be fought?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inarmageddon is a battle in which satan unites the kings of the earth against god's appointed king, christ.. the witnesses teach that the bible uses megiddo as the "symbolic" place of gathering of all the kings of the earth, where they will try to do battle against god and his forces.. it sounds so silly to me now that god and his forces would battle satan?
if god is so powerful,wouldn't he make satan and his demons just disappear?
does god need a sword,rocket,fist,or army tanks to destroy satan?.

As I've always understood it, it's God's war and his design. Therefore, it's silly for mere humans to speculate on this issue.
Our job is to keep on preaching, making disciples, and being the best at following Jesus Christ teachings.
