been going nuts looking for this.. i am sure i have read, and probably saved, a quote by them about not being false prophets but i am buggered if i can find it anywhere in search, google or my own pc.. can you help?.

i think its 2009 but not sure, where they have the line 'never have we said ''jehovah has said'' when ...'.

a link or pdf or scan or cut n paste, etc would be great!.

They are liars when they claim never to have said these are the words of Jehovah.

There was an article "They will know a Prophet was in their midst", where they said that they back up what they say with the scripture: "this is what Jehovah has said."

i have been online looking for actual images of the hoofed toes of early whales.. there is no lack of articles that say "such and such" had hooves on their toes, like their land dwelling ancestors.. i want images pictures of the relevant fossils.. all these references to hooves alone is like the self referencing of the wt with no actual tangible proof.. i am sick to death of looking at drawings that dont really prove anything....

If you want a good laugh, read "An EArly Whale Fantasy from National Geographic"

They dont understand how a mutaion works, they dont know the proper biological definition of evolution, they dont know what "vestigial" (as in vestigial organ really means, and they are soo thick they cannot draw any conclusions or inferences from what they have rubbed their nose in.

How to accept the actions of the Old Testament God

by confusedandalone in

how are we able to do this.. this is not an attempt to stir the pot or cause confusion but i was sitting here thinking of all the really horrid things that the old testament god did to people.

when i was a jw i just purposely put it to the back of my mind always trying to make an excuse.

when i was in field service and someone would ask me about it i would just change the subject.. however i have been reading alot of info lately here about how wonderful jesus is and how he is a direct representation of what god the father would be.

ANY so-called "human" being who displayed the qualities and behaved like the OT god would be despised, and put on trial.

The solution to any problem for him seems to be killing somebody or everybody.

Christians claim that because he is their god, what he did is okay because he is god and knows best.

The OT god did what he did because he could. Why does a dog lick its dick?

Very Big (and Shocking) Contradiction in the Gospels

by DeWandelaar in

i was visiting a website in order to prove to people that the bible can be seen as a very extremist book.. however... the site also showed some contradictions and although i am aware of most of them i came to one contradiction that was actually very shocking: the part that satan tries to temp jesus christ.

most of the gospels mention this and the timeframe shows that it happened directly after the baptism of jesus.

however... look at what happens in john!.

hamsterbait

The Gospel of John cannot POSSIBLY have been written by the same ignoramus that penned Revelation.

The Greek in the Gospel (according to language experts) is that of an educated Greek, not an ignorant peasant fisherman. He probably never even met Jesus personally.

There are plenty of other serious contradictions - especially if you include the Gospel srejected by the Church becasue they did not match its agenda.

SOOO - this is what they think passes for "piousneering " nowadays???

by hamsterbait in

on my way into work, i saw a "litterature waggon" strapped to a lamp post outside the railway station.. three (i kid you not) three "pious sneers" were standing, almost thirty feet away, gossiping laughing.. i watched for about five minutes, not one person looked at the stuff (it had "bible" on it so warned passersby cult.).

they never once went near the display to draw attention to it.

in fact, only an ex dubbie would have known they were connected with it.. by the end of the morning, they will have put in 3 x number of hours standing chatting and drinking coffee to keep warm.

By the end of the morning, they will have put in 3 x number of hours standing chatting and drinking coffee to keep warm. Dont trust any increase in hours claimed in next years service report. I have even seen piousneers sitting in the subway checkiing their watch, to see if it is time to go home yet.

But I ask you THREE claiming time for just standing about? They were all young fools though.

JW Science Quote Of The Day 8-29

wells 1898 novel, war of the worlds depicted the earth under attack by a race that had evolved past the need of eating to obtain nourishment.

these beings, in fact, had no digestive organs of any sort:.

"entrails they had none.

hamsterbait

YET they allow fractions of the blood!!!

If Jehoobie said "DO NOT eat cheese salad sandwiches" , would you then eat the butter, then the lettuce, then the tomato, then the cheese, then the bread, and say you had only eaten fractions of the sandwich??

The new bible did NOT remove the previously [bracked inserted words], it only removed the brackets, so it's even more deceptive..

by EndofMysteries in

many said how they removed the bracketed words, etc.

here is an example, an older bible in exodus 18:16 would say this....."i must make known the decisions of the [true] god and his laws.".

the word "true" is not in the original manuscripts, it's inserted, hence the [ ].

They have now decimated any possibilty of the NWT being a work of sound scholarship. (If it ever was)
