What or Who is a Jehovah's Witness?

by Vanderhoven7 in

what or who is a jehovah's witness?.

a jehovah's witness is a person whose faith is centered in men (gb) not god or the bible and who must never voice any opinion on any doctrine contrary to that of the gb or risk discipline and possible disfellowship.. well....its a start.. vander .

In addition, they are blind followers of Joseph R Rutherford and his successors, he coined the name and ruled the group with his unsteady hand, :0

Just A Thought Regarding The Bunker Video

by pale.emperor in

as ridiculous as the bunker video was, a few things popped into my consciousness as i was riding the train today.

firstly, why did they go to all the expense and effort to not only create a bunker, but to furnish it like a living room complete with coffee table, armchair, shelves etc?

i mean, a bunker should be a bunker... boxes of tinned food, tools, medical supplies, emergency gear etc.

Re: lastmanstanding "getting bad out there" Why? In "fulfilment of Bible Prophecy" attack of "God's People" will take place when Babylon the Great is destroyed (Ezekiel) So, is that what is being depicted? If so, what's all the racket out there, jws aren't known for making a fuss when being rounded up? Or, could it be, that THESE GUYS ARE COMPLETELY OUT TO LUNCH?

Here's a question for another time: If. explained by the GB the Scriptural necessity of drinking the koolaid, how many would do so?

If ever in a Bunker™ situation 1. Wear a tie at all times in case you're asked to read something 2. MAKE REGULAR SHAVE TRIPS, NO 5 O'CLOCK SHADOW IS ALLOWED, if you die at Armageddon do NOT come back complaining as you were warned, as well, 3. Above all YOU DO NOT want to lose your shot with the hot chick, make sure you have prepared and underlined the WT "Flirting for Instant Chemistry" brochure (Hot Chick in Bunker Edition)

Do You Think Jehovah's Witnesses Are Typically Ignorant People?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i think most witnesses are simple minded.many are ignorant.

there are a lot of basically "good people "in the religion but i believe many are kind of dumb, including many elders.

do you agree with my thoughts??

Beautiful new kingdom song

by slimboyfat in

has anyone noticed this new song?

i think it's absolutely beautiful.

it's got a film score quality about it, with depth and feeling.

I understand the poster to be an intelligent man, all the more so am I ashamed for someone who shows this level of insensitivity, as an analogy go find a local Jewish Seniors Home and start talking in length of your love of Wagner, many of the exjws here have lost friends and relatives due to anti blood and organ transplant policies, emotions rightly run high, I am a musician and have worked closely with WT composers, that being said I would prefer to never hear their material again as it serves to further WT propoganda, please show a little respect and show some self restraint,

"Only Witnesses demonstrate Christian Love"

by Jules Saturn in

so a couple of nights ago i was speaking with a relative and we began talking about the organization.

i had to asked her "why do you believe that this religion is the correct one?

" they stood quiet for a second but then said that they view and feel genuine christian love, a type of love that is spoken about in the bible.

"Christian love" is all embracing, it's not a touchy feely entity that exists within a cult like organization, I think that a band that looked out for one another in the Nazi camps is admirable, I think that the example of Catholic nuns who risked their lives rescuing Jewish children during this period is immeasurably more Christlike, that is, in harmony with the teachings of Christ, they could have concerned themselves with simply "loving" other Catholics, JWs were curiously absent from such activity, This argument will have no effect on any JW who wants to believe their own rhetoric, touchy feely warm sensations go a long way, as does one sided propoganda
