bunch of deluded victims
interesting the horror that befell everybody that did not abandon Jerusalem when the Romans first attacked inspite of 40 years of education by Jesus and the Apostles that the city was doomed, and all the evidence that was axiomatic. Very painful to see loved ones deluded.
Mormons assume their religious texts are true. And that’s that. They show you the Bible as bait but what they really want is to push the the book of Mormon. Any belief in the Bible is subordinate to what they already believe according to their texts. They measure the Bible using the book of Mormon and their other books as the ruler. In Islam they teach that the Bible has been changed so many times and therefore because their book has never been changed it is of divine origin. The Mormons only like the KJV because their book quotes verbatim from it. But how can you show a ruler that an inch is not an inch when that standard is used to measure the Bible? And you don’t want to be rude and and disrespectful but you get absolutely nowhere.
matthew 26: 18-20 .
18 he said: “go into the city to so-and-so and say to him, ‘the teacher says: “my appointed time is near; i will celebrate the passover with my disciples at your home.19 so the disciples did as jesus instructed them and prepared for the passover.20 when evening came, he was reclining at the table with the 12 disciples.. only jesus and his 12 disciples were present at the passover .if jesus wanted observers, he would of had some sit down at his last meal and requested that they be present that day and future passovers.
why does the wts feel that observers ( non partakers ) need to attend the yearly memorial?
it is improper.
All the jw do is celebrate the death of Jesus. That’s it. What is wrong with that? Some JW believe they are going to heaven others want to live on earth and believe that. At some point in the future as the scriptures say, the memorial will stop being celebrated. That is all there is too it.

no elite, no memorial
“until he arrives”( to paraphrase the related verse) Obviously, the verse means that at some point it will stop so the interpretation is based on text not a wt dogma. In the meantime, how is the observation not based on scripture or inproper?

I think it is spelled: Nisan
Not the car.

Nissan ( not the car ) 14, the “Memorial” is the anniversary of Christ’s death and all JW’s celebrate that event together.

How does criticizing an argument debunk it?
But first of all, are you saying that the door is open for everybody to go to heaven according to your Bible interpretation?

Why select that number to be literal when all around it are considered symbolic?
Regardless. It is a finite number. Not everybody goes to heaven.
How could you represent a finite number symbolically instead of simply revealing the number. Number is also a fraction of the vast majority, etc.
144k = 1M? 144M? 12? unknown?
Also, the number or people is predetermined not so with those on earth, the door is open for everybody.

How do your make sense out of religious people's fantasies?
The subject I am commenting on is the interpretation of what the Bible is saying, not validating whether or not what the Bible says is true.That is a different subject.
