There was a Rabbi named Judah Ben Samuel, who predicted with accuracy what would happen to israel over a 500 year period.. It's a good read for skeptics and non skeptics.

If there is anything to bible prophecy, keep an eye out on Israel
by EndofMysteries inwhat will be the end game whether in a few years, our lifetime, or hundreds + years from now.
bible prophecy did say israel / jews would be scattered then eventually brought back.
russell was declaring that and it was believed before being changed shortly before it happened.

If ISIS continues to grow in power and numbers, them attacking Israel, would resemble Gog / Magog attacking Israel quite a bit.
Imagine God,reigning fire down on ISIS and destroying them all.

Along the lines of Anti Anxiety meds, some of the Pharm types can be tough.
A lot of people (Including my self) have found a lot of Anxiety relief from an Herb called "mitragyna speciosa" - It can be a real life saver for many different mental issues.

Has anyone noticed how in the October JW Broadcast, Losch encourages good works towards ALL people?
by Tenacious ini can't help but notice how this past year alone has seen the gb start to turn more towards the teachings of the christ instead of peddling their falsities.. study articles have talked in length about the fine works of christ.
assemblies have been dedicated to speaking about christ.
and this month's broadcast is about doing good to others copying the example christ left for us.. what's more shocking is that losch actually says kids should speak, share, and even give food and clothing to non-believers!!

If you were ‘God’, what would you do?
by JWchange inthis post is not meant to be blasphemous to non-atheists on this forum , just philosophical.
i refer to a god rather than the creator.
it;s 10,000 years in the future and you are a phd student with a brain the size of a planet, that has incredible technology at your fingertips to create life, similar to humans living today or better, intelligently and physically.

I would create a species that had the Ability & Desire to Evolve.
I would allow Evil, that when conquered / figured out, would result in the Evolution of my species.
I would reset the scales whenever Evil begins to overshadow Good.
I would not Desire worship, and I would encourage toleration of Beliefs.

WT opinion about anointed Christians
by Gorbatchov injesus said "look to the fruits" of real christians.. it is unbelievable that the wt says that new anointed christians are merely false.
how can humans decide who is anointed and who's not?.
how can the watchtower society say these unchristian statements?

Does Anyone Still Believe in God?
by LaurenM indo any of you ex-jw's still believe in god?
even with the new rebranding/softening of this religion, i still don't see how people can believe in him.
the god of the old testimate is an angry murderer who approved rapes and slavery and killed thousands of men, women and children.

Viv - I've made several arguments, however you are the only person to not directly respond to any of my arguments.
Perhaps you have not been away from the Org for long?
It seems that you are resorting to the JW argument strategy, of avoiding statements with the clever insertion of Insults or nonsensical responses, I won't go back to verify this statement, but I would wager $1 USD that all of your responses have included the word "Drivel".. Why?
Edit - Ok I owe you $1.00 (Will you take payments?) Nonetheless, most of your responses have been simply mean. - Why?

cappytan - All Humans feel this way "I have my own moral code. There are things I won't do because I don't want to do them. And I don't believe my life is meaningless." ... Why do we all Feel this way?

cappytan - That is Good, and you are Good. The reason that you feel the responsibility of Taking care of your family, and the reason you enjoy spending time with Nature, is You are Good. Simple as that.. You have always been Good, and you will always be Good.
As soon as you Fully Accept this fact, you will See Much more Good.
P.S. Not to out wikepedia you! = ) But another aspect of Nihilism is - "a philosophical doctrine that suggests the lack of belief in one or more reputedly meaningful aspects of life."
