Arguing with Witnesses vs Trinitarians

by schnell in

jw
friends

i have always been told as a jw that trinitarians, particularly baptists, are just the worst people to argue with out in service.

i have always been told it was the world with a veil over their eyes.

the hypocritical irony is that so many witnesses are completely stubborn and willing to believe in magic before they believe anything against their dogma.

Why is religion in general so obsessed with what people choose to do with their willies and vaginas?

by jambon1 in

jw

what was it in the evolution of religion that got them so hung up about what people do with their genitalia?.

i mean, the (mis)use of genitalia is up there with murdering another human being in terms of badness.. and in the 21st century, we have a situation where in the jw religion, it's deemed as acceptable for three middle aged/old men to sit a teenage girl down and ask her the details of her use of her genitals.

to any normal person this is intrusive, completely inappropriate and bordering on deviancy.. why they so obsessed?.

If you get a group to follow dietary restrictions and sexual restrictions

Then you pretty much control them,

BTW if the writer of the question is a woman stop complaining! No one

said you had to cut off part of your privates to make God happy!

Jehovah's Witnesses Crime Against Grammar

by Simon in

jw
friends

so this is really starting to grate on me the more i think about it because it's just wrong grammatically.. one of my friends always refers to me used to being "a jehovah witness" which used to grate whenever she said it but now it seems more correct.. think about it this way: bruce springsteen has fans.

they are fans of bruce springsteen or, bruce springsteen's fans.

but each of them isn't a bruce springsteen's fan.

How about my friend Simon used to be "severely deluded" but he's better now lol

I'm surprised that JFR didn't work out the tenses after having the dream that gave birth to the name as I understand that he was a very considerate man,

Hi forum

i proably shouldnt be on here but i feel like saying this.

i have been for the last couple weeks been studying religion.

i've learned the only ones who today do what the bible says to is jw.

God didn't bring me back, I brought MYSELF back!! Well there is still a little difference of opinion on this point,

I'm confused,

But I'll tell you this:

If you don't BELIEVE you will BURN forever, or you and family will die at Armageddon in a number of really nasty ways (except by flood, I'M SORRY I TELL YOU I'M SORRY)

Because I am a very angry TODDLER, I mean

Because I AM GOD and

I AM LOVE and

You are a poopy face

The dust is now settling on this thread,

The JWs are experts at polemics,

With a sick twist,

A good defense lawyer will fight for his client with every argument true or false,

Painting his client in the best possible light,

The problem and the difference with JWs

Is that they now believe their own dreck,

Nothing in life ESPECIALLY religion is this black and white,

Deep down inside I believe they know this too,

But there's great honor, whether in a service car are at a door (why do you think they're in twos) to win each mini crusade/argument,

You do know they congratulate each other when the door closes?

This man is arguing to win, take note, he will not concede even ONE point,

JWs talk a lot about if a house holder is "sincere" or not,

Mark my words,

Not ONE point

When I see folks clearly lying and yet talking about having "the truth" makes me feel good about being out, I've always hated hypocrisy :0)

666 or 616? Do we have to choose a number or could it be both?

by fulltimestudent in

jw
friends

i'm sure that most longer term readers on this list know that the use of the number in the revelation was a 'code' using the jewish concept that assigned number values to the letters of the hebrew alphabet.. a promoter of modern judaism ( dr. eliyahu lizorkin-eyzeneberg) explains:.

today gematria is well-known as a jewish interpretive method that assigns numerical values of hebrew letters to words, phrases and/or sentences.

then, by adding them together, seeks to determine their deeper meaning.
