i feel like such a dufus sometimes .

i started attending a church a couple of years ago - i really like it but was really puzzled at first because they sang a lot of songs at the beginning of service.......like 6 or 7. i've gotten used to it - but still didn't really get it.

Bold lies in this weeks bookstudy material.........
by Pistoff in
1. watchtower
2. bible
ok, help me out: i think this is an outright fabrication, but i know that the wt will have some lame quote to back it up.. in the material for the bookstudy this week, they say this:.

"in 1923, jehovah's servants discerned that "the sheep" of jesus' parable found at matt 25:31-36 and the "other sheep" to which he referred as recorded at john 10:16 are people who would have the opportunity to live forever on earth.".

no way, not unless i have been lied to all my life.

Good description of the JWs
by drwtsn32 in
1. jw
2. friends
at first glance, jehovah's witnesses seem to be the model of religious democracy.. [...] .

however, in reality the watchtower society is an absolute autocracy.

all authority is vested in the governing body, including the authority to understand and teach the bible.. [...] .

i'm curious about which is the healthier choice: satanism or jehovahs witnesses?

Did God create man to live forever?
by shotgun in
1. watchtower
2. bible
dubs always point back to genisis as a last resort and say ....well he created them to live forever, it was his original purpose.. where does it say that?.

genisis says that they were to multiply and fill the earth not that they would live forever.

if they were to live forever what was the tree of life for?.

How did all the animals fit on Noah's Ark?
by hooberus in
1. watchtower
2. bible
.

many skeptics assert that the bible must be wrong, because they claim that the ark could not possibly have carried all the different types of animals.
