What are your personal reasons for hating the Jehovah's Witnesses religion ?

by Rocketman123 in

first thing comes to mind is that this organization through its leaders are not witnessing the true and honest version of the gospel teachings of jesus christ .. they are subjectively teaching/preaching a tainted version made up by the top controlling men of the organization, which i'm sure is connected to the proliferation and distribution of literature which these men publish themselves.

.

when jesus said that no one knows of the time not even he, he didn't say a select few will know .. the other thing that bothers me is this organization promotes human ignorance on many levels, admonishing education or knowledge that mankind needs for its very survival... there are many other religious organizations that do this as well but the jws is just one of these organizations.

Reason why fancy dress up parties were totally band!

by Witness 007 in

we had a fancy dress up party in our congregation.

elders special pioneers and many others came, though some came as cowboys and pirates with guns and swords which was not in line with the watchtowers "beat your swords into plough sheers.

" some sisters were belly dancers....yes they exposed their stomachs.....shock horror!

There were a number of teen/20's parties back in the 60's in the Midlands in the UK--especially on sunday evenings after the circuit assembles. The usual smoking drinking fights and fooling around. Pretty harmless on reflection--but they got banned anyway.

The Rise of Skywalker (2019) - how much crack was JJ Abrams smoking when he made this? lol (spoilers)

by LoveUniHateExams in

i saw the rise of skywalker (2019) a few weeks ago.. and it is totally crazy, lol, it has everything but the kitchen sink.. i can somewhat feel for writer/director jj abrams because rian johnson went f**k up in the previous film.. e.g.

in the force awakens (2015), abrams introduced snoke, but then in the last jedi (2017) johnson killed him off, the same thing happened to luke.. but that doesn't really hide hollywood hack abrams from criticism of this movie.

bringing back emperor palpatine - i mean, really?.

Is this what the watchtower will be producing at their new movie studio ?

Sept. 21 watchtower-your disfellowshipped kids aren't your fault

by joey jojo in

latest advice for jw parents: if your kids get disfellowshipped, fight the urge to blame yourself.

yes, great advice.

if your clueless, underage child is struggling in life, don't blame yourself, stop thinking about it and move on.

Look upon being disfellowshipped as a blessing..a reward. Youre free!

If you could pick out critical errors to the JWS religion what would it be ?

by Rocketman123 in

many that have come to this forum have left the jws religion and moved on with their lives but from a outsider's viewpoint what do think makes the jws religion wrong or incorrect as a active christian faith ?.

somethings come to mind such as its long continuous end times/armageddon soon doctrine which has really been a core doctrine for decades going right back to its beginning .. maybe they should have adopted the stance as other christian based faiths and adhered to jesus's own words when he said " no one knows of the time not even he ".

.

The fact that the watchtower claims to be the one true religion..and all others are false. Well they would say that..wouldnt they! Dont they all worship the same hole in the sky? Or is there more than one almighty god?

What aspects do you view most favorably about the WT and/or its religion?

by Disillusioned JW in

even if you disapprove of much about the wt and/or its religion, what aspects do you view most favorably about the wt and/or its religion?

for me one of the things i view most favorably about the wt and its religion is its extremely strong insistence that jws never intentionally kill another human being.

i especially appreciate that regarding those who have been born, but i think some abortions of human embryos might be justifiable.
