  lets get the elders stoned

  by what_Truth? in

  2. experiences

  thinking about vallis assembly post on the other board made me think of an evil idea.

  suppose you were at an assembly eating lunch with the elder about to give the next talk (one of those two hour groaners).

  all of a sudden he leaves to use the bathroom and you have a chance to sneak an illegal narcotic of your choice into his food*.

  Links between Jesus and other ancient Man-Gods

  by doogie in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  recently, at the prompting of another poster, i began to look into the similarities between jesus and other man-gods of ancient cultures.

  i was shocked!

  not so much by the minute details shared between the gospels and the stories of krishna, osiris, zoroaster, mithras, dionysus and others, but mainly because i had never heard of this before.. things like: being born of a virgin, espousing the redeeming power of baptism, turning water into wine at a wedding, having an entourage of 12 close followers, those 12 sharing a final meal with the god, instructing his followers to eat of his body and blood to benefit from his sacrifice (the blood usually symbolized by juice or wine), sacrificing his life by crucifixion on behalf of mankind, being dead for 3 days and then resurrected, he will return at some point to cleanse the world, and much more.. now, i know this is probably nothing new to most of you, but i was amazed.

  As a side thought, didn't the Org. teach the similarities of many ancient flood myth stories that prove a global flood happened.

  607? 587? What does it matter

  by IP_SEC in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  personally i believe that 607 is not the right date, but here is another point of view.. does 607 or 587 or 609 or 586 or 1914 really matter?

  yes but only after you have a pivotal date.

  5 starting from the pivotal date.

  You must know that dubs have faith in Jehovah and "His organisation". Period

  As I'm killing off my demons of old, this is something I came to realize about my time in the Org. The only time I ever thought of Jesus? importance is at the end of any prayer.

  I do feel for you. I feel I can put myself in your shoes, I remember doing the same. Trying to explain to tenacious knuckleheads that wont budge on their positions of Bible accuracy. Even if their position is morally, scientifically, archeologically, chronologically, and scripturally correct.

  demon attack in Kingdom Hall

  by Noumenon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  .

  i once heard about a sister that was having a lot of trouble with demons, and apparently she had a bad demon attack in the kingdom hall.. anyone else heard of such a thing?

  so much for the house of jehovah being some sort of refuge.. i have also heard of a witness who still experienced a demon attack despite calling out jehovah's name aloud.

  This is a true story!

  I was at the hall, during the public talk, when I had hot flushes and a dizzy feeling. Then I started feeling the demons push my skull apart from the inside. Each time they pushed, the pain was excruciating(sp.) and my eye sight faded.

  I ran out to find a safe place to hide, and went to the bathroom. Into one of the cubicles I ran, as the demons, so many MANY demons started to infect my entire body, especially my gut.

  I stuck my head into the bowl, as Bile and ectoplasm purged itself from my body and I shouted Oh God! Oh God Oh God!

  92! Well he's given you some seriously strong genes there. You're gonna outlive the religion, and some!

  Take care.
