What comforts you when you no longer believe in a ressurrection ?
by EdenOne inour family just lost someone dear and very close, a faithful jw.
as we went through the entire funeral services and meeting long time brothers and sisters, who in general have been very kind and warm towards us, we realize that the hope of resurrection is a meaningless utopia for us, like a fairytale for little children.
we don't have faith in it anymore, and serves us of no comfort.

The believable and unbelievable
by James Mixon inhave you ever been told something that was so unbelievable, like angels having sex with humans, demons attacking someone, floods, talking animals, cutting someone ear off and reattaching it within minutes without the aid of a surgeon.
we accepted it without a second thought.. the other day watching home &garden house hunters (folks buying homes in other states and other countries).. today after leaving the borg i don't trust anyone or what they say.. a family buying a place in alaska and they announced, alaska has about 3,197 officially named natural lakes out of 3 million unnamed natural lakes.. i told the wife bs, how can that many lakes be in one state.
it was hard for me to believe that minnesota have 10000 lakes.. it really feel good to check out a source, to investigate for yourself.. i know this is a small thing, the numbers of lakes in alaska.. years ago when i was in the borg, and they told me alaska have a billion lakes, i wouldn't have question it.. what happened!!!!

Witness hypocrisy regarding politicians and their failed promises!
by stuckinarut2 inyou know it dawned on me that witnesses and indeed the gb love to highlight how political leaders and groups can never be trusted to keep their promises, and often change their ideas, policies and platforms as time goes on...once they have already gained the power from the people.. hmmm.....sound familiar???.
this is blatant hypocrisy!.
the org has gained "power and control", then countless times failed to keep its "policies or promises or platform teachings" as time moves on.

@ stuckinarut2: "The difference here sadly is, unlike politicians, these guys cant be "voted out" by the people they have power over!"
Politicians can be voted out but they will simply be replaced by others who will act the same. Those who seek power in any field are those you can least trust for any reason.

Welcome to the forum dpw41. It's sad to see how manipulative and uncaring they are. I hope you have nothing to do with them in the future since those are people who would just as soon kill you or look at you. -

Maybe they should make a movie out of their eschatology. Like the Left Behind movies?

Jehovah's Witnesses are Boko Haram for Wussies!
by SonoftheTrinity inthe meaning of the name boko haram is "secular education is forbidden".
so due to their stance on higher education, i charge that jehovah's witnesses are the same as them only not as valiant in their madly misguided doctrine.

SonoftheTrinity, JWs aren't likely to die for their cause (except for blood transfusions) or become suicide bombers. -

Who is Gog of Magog? - Watchtower May 2015
by jwleaks inhere we go again... let's study... news report... comment.... who is gog of magog mentioned in the book of ezekiel?.
for a number of years, our publications have explained that gog of magog is the name given to satan the devil after his ouster from heaven.
this explanation was based on the fact that the book of revelation identifies satan the devil as the leader of the worldwide attack on gods people.
