To you what was the Watchtower Socity's biggest lie ?

by The Almighty Homer in

yes, what was the biggest lie that you can think of, that persuaded you to realize that they were not who they said they were ?.

for myself it would have to be the year they picked as the destruction of ancient jerusalem 607 bc.. i have an assumption this was done purposely to coincide correctly with making 1914 an a important pivotal date.

in human history, which by all factual evidence it was not.. unassuming and deceiving manipulation for self marketing purposes.

sat on the deck this afternoon in some rare late fall sunshine.

sipped a nice chardonnay and listened to the birds singing...peaceful, relaxing...peeling apples for pie.... .

Sounds like a great day Gregor! I like the photo too.

A question from a recent lurker?

i've been out of "the truth" (df'd) for over the last 15yrs and have struggled with one question all this time.

if the jw faith is not the one true religion and way to worship god then what is??

after all the bible doesn't say there are many ways to serve god but that the door is narrow leading off to ever lasting life and few are the ones finding it.

There might be a "creator," but we made a god out of it.

An Apology ..... (of sorts)

opinions are like certain orifices, everyone has one.. it's only if you insist that yours is the only one in the room that counts that you become like certain orifices....... with that in mind, i wish to offer a small but sincere apology to all members of our unique little community on jwn.

(that even includes perry).

now mind you, i don't apologize for the views i have, esp my political ones.

ATJ, You always state your case well. Keep up the good work. You should know that for many of us here "voyeurs," we love the fight!! It's stimulatin' in other ways!
