Why Do You No Longer Believe in God?

was it the wts and all its crap?

was it something you read?

Did Ray Franz manage to live out a comfortable retirement from the proceeds of his books.

by joe134cd in

i'm just curious if anybody knows.

firstly i don't take issue with the man making money from his books and if he was able to live comfortably from it then i say power to him.

but what i'm wanting to know was just how successful was it and did it allow him to live out the remainder of his years in comfort e.g buy a house, eat good food etc.

by The Rebel in

why do there have to be wars?

why is there so much hatred?.

the collective answer i came up with is natalisam, or maybe the correct word should be politics?

Lol well freemind my friend, the odds usually start at 20 pages, over/under. The OP isnt dogmatic though so that takes it down a little. The only hope for a long running battle is for some of the god people to show up and spout silliness prompting viv/coffy to battle back.

One of the biggest complete 180 contradictions in the SAME ARTICLE, in the 9/15 study wt "Is your conscience a reliable guide?".

by EndofMysteries in

if you actually turn your brain on and process what is being said, this article keeps contradicting itself.

"jehovah god created humans with free will, that is, the liberty to choose between one option and another.neither a branch office nor the local congregation elders are authorized to make health-care decisions for a witness.

a christian needs to remember the biblical command to keep abstaining from .

EOM, respectfully, arguing with VIV is historically a bad move. Only one person ever won an argument with viv, some legend named Morpheus. You are no Morpheus.

Talking with a young elder

by biblexaminer in

i had a discussion with an elder recently.

it was interesting in a macabre sense.

we were outside the kingdom hall on a nice sunny day recently.

_Morpheus

and you and I totally agree on that ob, no question. Unfortunately I still have some inside that I care about and such a line of reasoning may prompt them to think just enough to see the obviousness of the truth...

The truth..?

That you are a slave.. Like everyone else in the organization, you were born into bondage. Into a prison that you cannot taste or see or touch. A prison for your mind.....

It only takes one chink in the armor. I like to have little things like that to take a chink out if possible

The point was A) the gb was wrong in the first century and B) paul was not beholden to some imaginary central authority. Neither should dubs today.

*stating the obvious- im not bible believer but if that pans out then i want to have that in my pocket
