after a one year sucessful fade and no longer associated with any congreation, i was visiting my sister this week (who goes to the meeting to please her husband for now; i am slowly planting seeds though) and they decided to year this weeks midweek meeting via the telephone.
since i was a guest in her house, i sat with them in the living room to hear the meeting.
to my surprise (especially growing up as a gay jw with still alot of anger in my heart over how i was treated), the talks 2 and 3 where on, of course, homosexualiy.
The whole "fag" thing happens because an ignorant bunch of goat herders had only one purpose in their wandering about: BREEDING.
Ensure the food supply. Ensure the Tribes existence. In time some old fool of an Elder decided to say that their vicious Sky Spirit wants it this way.
By an accident of history the monotheistic cults survived until today. And their followers still say you can only be happy in penis-vaginaland in a state of breeder bliss.
the quiz will be followed by the answers.
don't peek!.
the answers should be avoided while taking the quiz .
1930 for 1?
Interesting as the Proclaimers book says that after 1918 the Bible Students came to realise that Christ "did not return(even invisibly) to the vicinity of the earth in 1914"
so what have been your experiences with sleep paralysis?
any connection to astral projection?
this has interested me recently as i used to have sleep paralysis quite often years ago.
Sitting in an evening meeting, then suddenly realising it was home time and had spent it in a coma.
when i started to do my research concerning ttatt, i started to see the scriptures in a different light.
one thing i noticed is that when the epistles talk about the last days, christs presence, the ressurection to heaven; the writers were speaking specifically of their time, not some two thousand years later.
even when jesus speaks of his presence and the kingdom being established, he was talking to his disciples of that time and what they were soon to expect.
Stop hanging onto the idea these ignorant fishermen understood anything. Get out there and live your one and only life before you waste it debating delusions from 2 ooo years ago...
i just checked the jw.org website and noticed an article about the jw response to ebola.
as i suspected, the entire focus was on alerting and educating jw members about ebola.just like in other disaster situations, the jw organization almost exclusively assists it's own members, ignoring the general public.
it seems their main concern is keeping their members healthy so they can continue to spread the jw message door to door!!!
Jehoobie's solution? Kill somebody- as many as possible until the situation disappears.
That is always what happens. The world of disease and starvation will be gone forever once he has killed every last one of the diseased and starving.

I am sick to death of hearing this. Their RELIGION makes them evil. None of the Jews smashing babies skulls were evil, they just did as they were told.
Evil is as evil does. How can you say somebody is not evil, they just do evil things?
from this argument sweet little Adolf Hitler did the whole thing by his angelic self. Nobody else helped - because nobody else was evil.
Give us a break. The evil things done by dubs are done by people who pretend to be sweet good and righteous, but willingly follow a hate filled creed, based on mass annihilation, just like the Nazis.
not my cup o tea for sure, but i found out my nephew is a regular zombie on the show.. anyone here like the show?
i'm kinda afraid to even watch it ...my imagination is a bit to active.. .

After almost 40 years watching the Walking Dead at the Kingdumb Hell I think I'll give it a wide body-swerve.
wife says she always thought the wt said that anyone alive at armageddon that did not get a chance to hear kingdom message may survive?
true?
references?.
There was a Witchtower study in the mid 80s that said when Armageddon comes, nobody would have the excuse they never heard the message, because they should have been searching for it, if they had the right heart condition.
the new jw library app includes the kingdom interlinear.
just by looking up the scriptures at the meeting when i went, revealed the following "departures" from the other translations:.
rev 5:10 "over the earth" vs "upon the earth".
Cant the Christians see how this GOD (ie Invisible Sky Fairy) is totally incapable of clearly communicating to all us sinners, how we are actually supposed to kiss his ass acceptably so we can be given salvation. Nobody who claims to worship this Sky Daddy can agree with everybody else.
It's all shite!!
the entire organization shoves all its chips into the center of the table on one bet: they are the only mouthpiece of god on earth.. what are the odds to this bet?.
the statistic for christian denominations make jw's 1 out of 41,000 opinions.. a chance of 1 in 41 thousand is a tough bet.. _________________________.

Oh dear! Mercy on us!
how many religions have ever existed. The Witchtower religion is another that will die out when fear of death is gone. Or people see it for the scam it is.
