Where did God go??
by fairchild init has been over 10 months now since i stopped going to the kingdom hall.
i had imagined how i would really find my way to god now that i was no longer being misled by the wts ( for - profit) publishing company.
i kept reading the bible, because people on jwd had told me how i would see it in a different light.

But to me, the journey towards knowledge of God or no God is rather annoying, it never seems to end.
That's about the size of it.You've been given some good advice in this thread. Take time to reflect on it. Over time, you'll come to your own conclusions. So don't stress --- chill, or you might develop A-Fib or somethin'.

THIS JUST IN: CHRISTMAS has been CANCELLED this winter.
by Oroborus21 inflash--november 16, 2005, peoria, il.. instead of merry christmas, happy hannukah (or chanukah), kwanza, etc.all merchants are to use a generic term instead.
no use of santa, a nativity scene or any christian or other religious symbolage may be used in store displays, on advertising on upon product packaging.
use instead nondescript wintry animals, snowflakes and candycanes to signify the holiday season.. the committee on political correctness is expected to issue a final ruling by friday on whether "festivus" may be used.. -merchants for appropriate designations.

Even though Christmas has nothing to do with Jesus, I am outraged by the blatant anti-religious sentiment in the commercial sector.
Guess the dubs are finally making some headway in business territory.

really
by John Doe in[23:23] so friends, hypothetically, and i repeat, hypothetically, even if an angel were to come down here and land on this platform, today, at this moment, and to present something to us that didn't fit into the pattern of truth, what should we be ready to do?
we should be ready to say, " hold on there, that doesn't fit into the pattern, and i am not going to listen to it!
" yes, even if it were one of jehovah's angels..

So we listen to Jehovah, by listening to the Fine Shepherd, Christ Jesus. And we do that, today, by listening to the Faithful and Discreet Slave, who Jesus appointed over all his belongings to give us our spiritual food at the proper time.
Typical top-down hierarchical arrangement.
And we listen to the elders, who listen to the circuit overseers, who listen to the district overseers....yadda yadda yadda.

If you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things. Why not? Because all the evidence in fulfillment of Bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years. Of the generation that observed the beginning of the "last days" in 1914, Jesus foretold: "This generation will by no means pass away until all these things occur."
Therefore, as a young person, you will never fulfill any career that this system offers. If you are in high school and thinking about a college education, it means at least four, perhaps even six or eight more years to graduate into a specialized career. But where will this system of things be by that time? It will be well on the way toward its finish, if not actually gone!
If anyone is interested in a photocopy of the article, please PM me and I will send one off to you.

Of Late Many Here Seem To Be Preaching Aethiesm..
by Qcmbr inwhen i first came here a while back there was plenty of discussion around and about jw topics and general chit chat but of late i've felt quite a sharp increase in posts that are: .
1/ preaching aethism (as opposed to putting it forward in a respectful way as an alternate viewpoint.
2/ vitriolic attacks on those who dare have another view ('damn those stupid heretical believers') .

We can rest knowing that the egyptian symbol which is of the tetragrammatron god of the JWs, was an obvious embarassment to the organization when researchers found out about it. REMOVE IT! Makes us look bad! We can worship BAAL in other ways more secretive.

While this is a possibility, I wanted to show that the motif/decor do not STILL exist on this building as some claim. In speaking with a brother at the hall, I was told that the outside embellishments were removed and the interior was remodeled a number of years ago. He said that just prior to them buying it, it had been used as a synogogue.
I think that the Witnesses may not have felt an immediate need to remove the Egypticity from the building because of the tie-in to Russell's use of the symbolism. Of course, times change. Old light...new light.

This should put the Sun disc, Egyptian motif Kingdom Hall controversy to rest. The interior was refurbished and the exterior "occult" decor was removed quite a few years ago. This is a recent photo. Formerly the Bliss Theater, the building was purchased by the Witnesses and turned into an Assembly Hall.
