Screw You Watchtower I love my MAN!!!!! My Sex God from Croatia!!!

by ClaireManEater in

friends

well i got disfellowshiped for "immorality".

me and my girl friend went to europe and eventually ended up in croatia.

(what a beautiful place by the way).

tetrapod.sapien

heh heh, sweet. good for you! the WTS can take their conservative little morals and shove them.

i was in croatia back in june, and yes, what a beautiful place (actually my avatar photo was taken in dubrovnik). i have been to europe before, but there must be something in the water in croatia. i don't think i have ever seen such high concentrations of totally beautiful women! (shakes head and smiles)

well, welcome to the board. stick around. you'll probably learn some other reasons for dumping that religion in addition to your croatian sex god.

What were your reasons for becoming a JW?

by Narkissos in

jw
friends

reasons, not excuses -- even valid ones (like, "i was ignorant, depressed, fooled").. yours in the sense that you can still own (to) them -- even though you now know the "answer" was wrong.. this obviously applies to those who became jws -- hence mostly not born-in, although some of the latter might admit to having chosen the jw way for themselves at a certain stage of their childhood or teenage years.. this question is triggered by a previous conversation with purplesofa on another thread:.

i think most of us that came in and not born in were searching.

our hearts were pure in our search.

tetrapod.sapien

indeed! an interesting concept narkissos! my mother and i were just discussing this yesterday.

ultimately, the reason i became a jw is because i believe that a paradise earth is the only way for humans. and i still do, in an evolved sense that i have recently aquired. we need to get back to nature. and we need to have reverence for something mutually. it used to be jehovah. now it is just the earth itself. and this mutual reverence tells of another reason, i suppose. pan-cultural brotherhood. the wts is a failed exercise in such. but it is still a major reason i became a wit.

i guess ultimately because i believe we can be better, fuller and connected with each other and the earth.

peace,

being in the construction business for four decades erecting tall structural steel frame buildings, etc, it amazes me how man has built many awesome structures.

The Gospel of Judas

by kwintestal in

what are your thoughts on it?

the link to the national geographic research of it.. link to the translated document of the gospel of judas.

i read the account and i must say it really sheds a different light on the whole story.

tetrapod.sapien

thanks for the links kwin.

i am glad that gnostic groups who were silenced by the church, or by the desert, are finally having a say.

Worry and wondering over such a thing just wastes time that can be used to enjoy universe we live in itself.

what if wondering about such a thing is an enjoyable way to spend ones time in the universe?

sorry. i didn't want to waste anymore of your time. ;) and it's true, why worry?!

Why doesn't the Holy Spirit know the day and hour of Jesus return?

by booker-t in

everytime you talk about the trinity to born-again christians and bring up the verse where it says of the day and hour only the father knows they will immediately say jesus was in his "human nature" that is why he does not know.

but my question is why don't the holy spirit know the day and hour?

is the holy spirit in human nature as well?

tetrapod.sapien

interesting.

i agree we are approaching a tipping point, but this makes jesus seem like anyone else to me though. i mean, i could be jesus, according to this.

hmmm

I would suggest that there isn't a set time and that we are in charge of when it will be by our actions.

ouch Q. my goodness. this reminds me of xian fundies from the states, like george w bush and that new american century think tank, who believe that they will bring about the rapture themselves. i find this sort of thinking process scary because xian fundies are not the most balanced homo sapiens i have ever met. i mean, sure, if the faith you held was actually beyond a doubt some sort of manifestly real reality. but what if you guys are all delusional like i think you are? wouldn't that mean that instead of just bringing about the rapture, you are actually just causing suffering and death on a mass mass mass scale? things that make me go "hmmm....." things that should make you go "hmmmm...." tetra

Maybe you're being a little harsh about this. Nobody -- no human being -- sees more than this four-dimensional world;

speak for yourself. i regularily meet the higher vibrational pan-dimensional self-transforming fractal machine elves of hyperspace. they send messages of love.

Why doesn't the Holy Spirit know the day and hour of Jesus return?

because jesus suffers from multiple personality disorder?

or

because jesus is actually a manifestation of our own unrecognized potentials, and anything associated with him, like the so-called holy spirit, cannot "know" anything until we ourselves attain a remembering? aka gnosis?

or

because in the spirit of being holy, the holy spirit is only being fair. to know, would imply consciousness. and consciousness would imply anthropomorphism. and that, my friend, is a cardinal sin.
