Black Gold...question?

by foreword in

wasn't there a verse somewhere that mentioned that men would fight over black gold?

What's the deal with fairies?

by gringojj in

one of the most annoying things about dubs is they have all these stupid rules and no one person seems to know them all.

my wifes mother said it was wrong to have a tooth fairy for our daughter because fairies are magical and whatever.

so then the other day we were at the store and there was a dress for play dress up and it had fairy wings in the back.

Boy it does not matter where you go all the Dubs have their own differnet way of viewing something you just have to guess whats OK and whats not sometimes. Even the Dubs in the Borg for 50 years has to be careful because so places thinh=gs are OK and just next door at the other congregation it might not be.

Angel Wings - What's the problem?

by Nellie in

once you start questioning the beliefs of the organization, all kinds of things cross your mind.

for instance, the bible clearly describes angels as having wings - and the wbts illustrates them with wings in their publications - so what's up with the whole "not displaying images of angels" in witness homes, etc.

through the years i bought the position that angels are not children, so the images of babies with wings and halos are inconsistent with bible truth - but what's wrong with images of adult angels with wings and why are witnesses encouraged not to display them?.

skyman

Nothing the bible says not to make an image of anything on earth or above the earth. So aevery painting is wring because some one might worship the omage you painted. So they grasp at straws hope for some to grab on.

what proves jw's aren't true?

by jwfacts in

i am inactive and it took years of doubt to convince myself the jw's arent true.

i started doubting because i hated the idea that jehovah would kill 6 billion non-jw's.

the thing now that is the most important proof for me is that until 1954 jw's worshipped jesus and it is still in the watchtower charter, even though you now get disfellowshipped for worshipping jesus.

UN deal. After calling the information desk and being told why and sent a letter form the information desk. I looked into the reasons given to me and I contacted the DPI of the UN. I found out the reasons given to me was not true. They stated that they joined because in 1991 it became necessary in order to continue to have access to the UN library. Not true, nothing had changed in 1991 everything was the same as it had been since 1946 and there are over 407 library's world wide all of which you or I could use. So that was B.S. Next they said that by joining the NGO's they did not incorporate into the UN. This is true but no government or Non government that joins the UN incorporated into it. Incorporate means to become owners with No Government or NGO's do that by joining they become member of not owners with. Next lie is they agreed to nothing that conflicts with Christian beliefs more lie's.To join they had to agree with the charter of the UN and that means they had do agree that the Un is the only means to bring peace to the World and agree to bare arms if called to do so.

Armed with the information I called again with the facts. I was told to look up the information about Theocratic Warfare!!!!!!!!!!! So you or I did not have the right to be told the truth if they feel we don;t has the right to know. They used Theocratic Warfare on me a brother raise from a baby a Theocratic Warfare lie. That was it for me no longer could I be sure that what they say is really the truth or Theocratic Warfare lie's. I don't need to be lied to and neither do you. How could anyone after finding this out stay and listen to a Organization that feels it has the right to out right lie to its members?

A newbie's impression on this board, pros and cons

by smelly onions in

cons.

i don't know who is scarier, the jw's or some people on this board.

man, r u guys bitter?

skyman

don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way off this board. By the way tell my dad that being put into the mental hospital when he was DF for only finding out about the UN deal and telling the other Elders was his fault. Dad personnaly brought in over a hundred drones into the Borg. So I guess his thinking how they could of done that to him was his way of feel bad about himself and that is how it manifested itself. Kiss my ass.

by LouBelle in

jw
friends

hey everyone - i have this anger, perhaps rage boiling within me, it has been for the past week since i was disassociated.

my feelings of dislike are turning to bitterness & hate against this organisation.

i learnt today that the elders have lied to my family.

skyman

Just tell them F+++ themselves. I see that you have been on this forum for awhile so you know how they work. I feel so deeply for you. Please know you are welcome here.

Neaderthals and the Hobbits what the heck?

by skyman in

jw
friends

to me not believing that they were alive and human living at the same time as us is like believing in the tooth fairy.

dna proves the neanderthals lived and were human but not us.

they lived worshipped wore jewry and buried their dead.

I'll be damned you are correct about the Junk DNA who would of thought that was possible. This a very strong point against God creating us from nothing or from a blank slate.
