child murder, sodomy & corrupting the human genome are not new sins, they are old ones.
what is new is their institutionalization.
but even that isn't totally new.
Fink, I wouldn't say its a genetic defect, but a genetic variance. Like blue eyes.
Which brings me to a question, have they found the 'gay' gene? I don't recall a news story about this, but it seems probable they will if they haven't already.
No! Studies tends to prove that's nothing to see with genetic .
You doesn't have a "gay" gene. You doesn't have an "hetero" gene neither!
so, i left about 5 years ago and at that time, the official ruling on number of members was a little over 6 million.
i google jw out of boredom the other day and find they are now claiming 8 million members.
sooooo.... hold on 2 million increase in 5 years?
Ws are still growing, primarily as a result of aggressive recruiting of immigrants in the wealthier western countries where those immigrants flee to,
Especially, a result of aggressive recruiting of CHRISTIAN immigrants in the wealthier western countries where those immigrants flee to.
Because, here, in France, the immigrants are at 99% muslims. And it don't work at all when JWs try to recruiting them. At a point, they don't really try!

No one will be able to stop being aware, ever.
That's funny to ear that form the mouth of a guy who is proud to share its narrow-minded shitty stuff!!!
because of the may broadcast about how funds are down, our elders have been in their talks "encouraging" or pressuring everyone to donate more to the world wide work.. it freaks me out how we already give them a set amount of $600 a month, plus what is contributed by the congregation(usually $400 to $500 a month).
heck, our local congregation bank account even got below $500 for the first time this past may since i have been doing the accounts(4 years now).
for june, we raised a whopping $2400 to send into the branch.. the most amazing part, is that only a select few contribute on a regular basis every month.
Contributions by check ?
It looks so : "Look and see, I gave that amount"

Homosexuality is a genetic disorder, just people who are born with other physical abnormal defects.
No!
That is false!
No serious scientific research tends to prove that point! At contrary, they tends to prove that homosexuality is basically normal.

I stop to read after this. Start exactly like a right-wing homophobic hateful propaganda. I'm tired of these bullshit!
i have been searching pro and anti arguments for trinity, and found out there are anti-trinitarians who believe jesus did not preexist before his human life.
and i am thinking, it kind of makes sense.
what if yahweh created a second adam.
I never understand why people who successfully left behind a brain-washing cult, are trying to auto-brain-washing themselves with theories as stupid as those of WTBTS.
Only one opinion on this subject. Paradise, use your brain for very important matter, and let this intellectual masturbation to dumb people!

Not really surprising.
I don't know the numbers, but I bet 80% of the increase is in Africa and south America.
In fact in countries with 5 - 7 children by women and a very religious-minded background. In the countries where evangelism have great success... In the countries under-educated, where the simple thoughts are efficient
on one hand, wtbts blame you if you choose to work instead of pioneering, and on the another hand, they ask crazily amount of money!.
isn't it paradoxal ?.
if every jw leave his job and pioneer, no more money!.
Euh?
I'm not a native-english speaker, and I have to confess that I don't know the difference between the both!
the bible has ample evidence of god communicating with humans during the first 4 centuries.. since jesus time ,god has not communicated with humans at all .,in the same way as he did in the first 4 centuries .. in fact jesus has not communicated with humans in the same way as jehovah did for the first 4000 years., during his 2000 years to this date , .
does not the bible say , god does not change , he is the same today as he was yesterday and will be tomorrow ?.
so why was god communicating with humans on a regular basis , one way or another for 4000 years and then , neither jehovah or his son jesus christ ever directly contacted humans ?.
Yes! God doesn't change!
He wasn't, he's not and he will not be!
