  what religion are you now?

  by 4digitcode in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm sure this has been asked a million times before but since leaving the witnesses what religion (or lack thereof) have you chosen for yourself?

  and what is it about that religion that attracted you?

  since leaving the witnesses i think i no longer believe in god, not out of anger, actually i think i like the idea of him more since i don't believe in him anymore.

  Is it POOR PARENTING to raise a child into a religious faith?

  by nicolaou in

  1. social
  2. family

  or, by the same token, to raise a child to be atheist?

  surely we should teach our children how to think, not what to think.

  equip them with the mental tools they need to be able to work things out for themselves.

  Richard Dawkins made a two-part documentary for Channel 4 TV, entitled "Root of All Evil?" in which he argued that religion was a virus that subverts reason. In part two, "The Virus of Faith," Dawkins attacks the teaching of religion to children, calling it child abuse.

  "Innocent children are being saddled with demonstrable falsehoods," he says. "It's time to question the abuse of childhood innocence with superstitious ideas of hellfire and damnation. Isn't it weird the way we automatically label a tiny child with its parents' religion?"

  I agree with Dawkins.

  Comprehensive list of misquotes

  by JG in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  does anyone have or know of a "full and complete list of misquotations of the watchtower" if not would anyone like to help compile this list.

  i'm sure that we could find someone who would host an article or paper on this subject.

  i was thinking of a list or paper without any inflamatory wording or language that we could just hand to a jw and they would read without dismissing it as "full of hate" or appostate etc.

  Is "the Great Tribulation" now interchangeable with "Armageddon"?

  by marmot in

  it seems that in the latest editions of the wt "the great tribulation" is being referred to as something that only the witnesses will survive.

  for example, here are some references pulled from the upcoming members-only study edition: .

  *** w00 10/15 p. 16 par. 2 What God’s Kingdom Will Do ***
  
  At the beginning of the great tribulation, something will happen that will be a severe shock to most people on earth: the destruction of all false religion. That will not be a shock to Jehovah’s Witnesses, for they have long anticipated this. (Revelation 17:1, 15-17; 18:1-24) The great tribulation ends at Armageddon when God’s Kingdom crushes the entire Satanic system.—Daniel 2:44; Revelation 16:14, 16.

  So, according to WT doctrine, the 'GT' includes both the destruction of 'Babylon the Great' and Armageddon ...

  They've probably changed it by now, but it used to be:

  Destruction of Babylon the Great + Armageddon = Great Tribulation

  2. friends

  would someone seriously consider arranging for an apostafest up in scotland next year?

  i know i'm asking this early but i feel it would be good to put the feelers out now.. obviously, it would have to be a location easy to get to - so that means stornoway is out!

  sorry, ross & xena.
