Oh, How to Choose What to Follow in the Mosaic Law...

by Sorry in

my sarcasm will get me df'd one day.

after being disgusted by the bs of the sunday meeting, i chatted with one inactive brother came back for that one meeting.

i can't exactly remember how it came up, but he told me and a sister whose a close friend of mine that she shouldn't be so uptight, we're no longer under the mosaic law.

Remember what the bible says: Be cautious as a serpent, innocent as doves, fiery as foxes and as talkative as donkeys. Or something.

I happen to agree with the cautious bit... :)

A Believer....... A naughty, naughty sheep....

by DATA-DOG in

"a believer" seems to be our new apologist/disobedient sheep.

"a believer" ignores the "spirit-directed"/"bible-based" commands of the gb/fds!

shame on you, "a believer"!!!!

Has anyone pointed them to JWFacts.com? A good read through that site might be the best thing for them.

What will humans look like in 1000000 years?

by James Mixon in

ok, the bible is a fascinating book of fairy tales, so we move on..e. zolfagharifard, some guy states "humans will be very different creatures in just 1000 years from now due to climate change,artificial intelligence and genetic mutations are all set to transform our bodies in drastic ways.

a mixture of biology and machine on the inside.

this is only 1000 years from now, what the hell will humans look like in 100000 years????

Trouser leg A:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-38210837

With small female pelvises no longer being a barrier to larger foetal craniums, humans increase their brain capacity and become more intelligent and creative. Downside is we start to look like Mekons from Dan Dare.

Trouser leg B:

Humans brain size increases but is entirely taken up with rationalising the inconsistencies of the Trump "Post Truth" era and the end result is actually a decrease in intelligence. Humans still look like Mekons, but with sad faces to boot.

My mother's treatment. Unreal.

i disassociated myself 3 years ago but have never told my mother, as she lives quite a distance from me in the uk.

i've have told her that i no longer go to meetings, neither does my son, who is 16.. i haven't seen her for 3 1/2 years.

i offered to come visit this week but she was incredibly offhand with me and said she couldn't meet with me today as she was on the ministry!!

It's awful when family don't behave like family. I'm sorry you're being treated this way. :(

Jehovah God is Real

by TakeOffTheCrown in

there are many on this site that do not believe that jehovah truly exists; that he is not a real being.

but, he is as real as next breath you draw into your nostrils.. some of you say that there is no evidence that he exists.

yet, none of you can prove that he does not exits.. cofty, (you come to mind), i appreciate that you have stated, without reservation, that you do not believe that god exists.. yet, you cannot prove it.. hope in jehovah..

Cool story bro.

Jehovah God Is Not Real

by Onager in

there are many of us on this site that do not believe that jehovah truly exists.. i think this is a great and wonderful thing to be celebrated!

i'd like people to list the reasons why they do not believe that jehovah exists.

this is open to all, not just atheists or agnostics, but anyone that believes that the god as put forward by jw.org does not and can not be real.. i'll start: .

My impression is that Jehovah the god is not as important as Jehovah's organisation. I think that the group belonging is what's really important to them. For example if you argue the god is cruel or evil from the bible you'll get a robust defence (well, you do amongst my acquaintances), but if you are negative about the organisation it escalates immediately to Def Con 1.

Another thing is that most JW's don't seem to live as if what they say they believe is true. The apathetic cart witnessing, keeping the house and car and paying into the pension fund... all things that just would not happen if they truly believed the end was as close as they say.

“I can't say beyond a doubt that Jehovah or God does not exist,”

I agree that it can’t be stated beyond a doubt that God does not exist. However I think that the god called Jehovah as defined by the JW’s is internally inconsistent and therefore cannot exist. A loving god doesn’t commit hateful acts, a moral god doesn’t act immorally etc.

“jehovah exists .

but then so does baal..thor..the bogeyman etc.”

For the purposes of my OP I mean exist in the sense that my living room table exists. You’ll just have to have faith in my word that it does… J

“Lots of words.”

Interesting, but we’re discussing the god called Jehovah, not Jesus. You seem to be saying that he does exist but is irrelevant to us today? The problem is that for millions of JW’s the Jehovah concept is horribly relevant.

Not only that LoveUniHateExams, but if children give a balding man a bit of cheek, they get torn apart by bears acting under gods orders.

Torn apart by bears.

There's a documentary called Grizzly Man. In it a couple of people get killed and eaten by a bear. You only hear fragments but it is absolutely harrowing.

Imagine that happening to children. Not only is it completely wrong, it's still wrong even if it's just a warning tale to make children respect their elders and not a literal account.

A god that imparted his perfect moral code to humanity via a holy book would have mentioned the fact that slavery is immoral.
