The Noah's ark : What a nonsense!
by coalize in1. a shitty start we don't have to wait more than 4 verses of genesis 6 to put our feet in a big stinky bullshit :.
consequently, jehovah saw that mans wickedness was great on the earth and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only bad all the time.
jehovah regretted that he had made men on the earth, and his heart was saddened.

no one will know...
by sowhatnow inread here: what jesus says at matthew 24 .
36 but about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the son,[f] but only the father.
37 as it was in the days of noah, so it will be at the coming of the son of man.

36 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,[f] but only the Father. 37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.
now it says that in the days of noah, no one knew anything until the flood swept them away.
they were not preached to, and they had no idea. it just suddenly happened. because God already knew from examining their hearts or thier dna, that they were wicked and there was no use doing any warning.
so now, according to that no one is going to know when Jesus second coming is. suddenly they will just see him coming on a cloud. one will be taken the other left.
so Jesus is going to come and take those whom he sees to be righteous. he will leave those sinful humans on earth and once again destroy them.
so, the great tribulation, [having already happened] is not something we need to look to happen nor fear.
Our Judge, Jesus will judge each of us individually according to our deeds and decide if he wants to take us to apparently his heavenly kingdom.
Now supposing the bible is in fact from God, Id reason that when we die, is pretty sudden and unexpected, and at that time we are then judged according to how we lived.
but lets say for all of us half believers out there, what would this symbolically mean then?

Memories. .. share the earliest or most favorite childhood memory
by MissFit inmy daughter tells me that experts say children tend to have false memories.
apparently their brain tends to fill things in that may not be totally accurate.. i refuse to believe that my favorite and comforting memory might not be true.
so here is to fond memories real or not.. the earliest memory i have is being put in a crib at a preschool.

when my son stopped going to meetings, a few years later he was approached by two jws handing out memorial tracts in a parking lot, he said it was 'uncomfortable and weird'
and now he knows how everyone else feels about that! he was mad that he ever had to do that to make people feel so odd.

Using Third-World Poverty-Stricken Witnesses To Guilt More Donations Video, Where is that Video?
by SanLuisObispoTruthSeeker ini heard about a new video where the watchtower has a single mother and her child eating millet or rice with almost no material possessions worried about donating to the world wide work.
now most religions are trying to donate to third-world countries, not the watchtower profit enterprise, they are willing to take a families last milk cow so their leaders can spend those funds fighting pedophile lawsuits!.
every place the watchtower builds you read about the angry citizens having to pick up their tax bills because the watchtower only takes!

ok ok break it up boys, lol.
lets not put words in anyone's mouths.
heres the thing, one person will experience something and never see what others experience, and so we assume.
for decades, so many jws never have a single bit of controversy in their lives and cant imagine anyone else having issues that are not of their own making. they have flawed reasoning, obvious imperfection.
for example my mother is convinced that when people that are jws get into situations that result in hardship, shes sure they are not trusting in jehovah and doing what they're supposed to do, whatever that is.
well one day i asked her, gee mom, you mean all these years I wasnt trusting in God, my service was fake, my meeting attendance was fake, and that's why I have an unloving marriage and no friends?
I guess you lack faith too since things aren't the way you want, huh mom? she gets where im going
and usually changes the subject. stupid logic she has. no ones lives are perfect.
Ive lived long enough to see jws in my area never have anything other than some health problems cramp thier style, but then again, Im not a fly on the wall, who knows what demons they hide inside.
its all a facade. who are the real people behind the label?

Spiritually Dead Children
by suavojr inthis is a gem... charles sinutko had great skills at parenting.

I Dont believe the term spiritually dead is a real situation. in the bible only those who god chose were spiritually alive, all others were dead, spiritually, after you accepted the truth of jesus then you were spiritually alive.
nor is there as such thing as spiritually weak.
its all made up. you either have faith and believe that Jesus is Gods son, or you dont . any other application to me seems to be for the purpose of gaining free labor.
