folks,.
over the past several months, i have read some heart breaking stories from women who come here, who have been involved with jw men.
now, this leads me to ask.

just a quick thought - i am a firm believer in freedom of speech etc, but having been on this forum for some time i honestly can't say that i can introduce a doubting jw interested in true christianity to this board.
some of the deep discussions on jw doctrine are excellent, but everything else seems to be nonsense in my opinion.
why can't this site be more like the old www.witnesses.net which seemed to have more spiritual meat rather than backbiting, gossip, and rumour and even obscenity.. sorry for my frank opinion
Thanks for the reply aC,
I must admit to asking a loaded question. My personal view is that Satan just grew out of God's complexity.
The vengeful, jealous God who tempted humans into sin (loving them only when they were absolutely good children) sounded barely a step above the polytheism of the Greeks and others.
Enter Greco-Roman and Eastern Philosophy.... God 'ejects' Satan, even confining his activities to the earth. Satan is still somewhat of an alter-ego invoked to whip humans into shape.
But animosity between God and Satan festers. This is part of the continuing evolution of the human conscience.
So now humans want to invoke God to get rid of Satan once and for all. Notice how persistent Satan is in the bible? All wicked mankind has to die before he does. Why not Satan first?

it seams to me that through out history men have allways commited the worst crimes against humanity.. from despot rulers to serial killers and petty crime , men do the most.. yet to me it seams that on a personnal level men get on better with each other than women.. women are often very senseitive and take offence much more easily.. they can be very bitchy and manipulative.. often men will have an aurgument with a friend and the next day all will be forgotten , while a women can take years to forgive.. so what is it about mens psychology that makes them commit worse crimes than women?.
or it there just the fact that they are physicaly stronger?.
i wonder that if in the future , women are in positions of power more that they will act worse than men have, or if they will show more compassion for others?
LOL! Prisca ,
I guess they had to come from the same mama.

About the child-care issue,
We must acknowledge that women and men may demonstrate equally selfish sexual behavior. Neither are always honest about what they need and what they expect of their partner. Therein lies the problem.
Therefore, what is necessary is acceptance. It is disgusting that women and especially their children are stigmatized for the lack of a typical family sructure.
Hey, people have sex and have children. Accept it.
Interestingly, in one promiscuous society where paternity was easily confused, the men took care of their sisters' children. That's truly an evolutionary solution, since the men were sure of being genetically related to the children, though they were not the fathers.
If anyone wants to read about that, see The Third Chimpanzee by Jared Diamond.

I don't know what this has to do with the quality of this forum, but a few q's:
why do humans figure so highly in this epic battle between God and Satan anyhow?
If Satan is so insidious, why did he never think to unravel any other fabric in the universe? He could have really stirred up some trouble by extinguishing all the new stars God created, for example.
What is so important about control over the human mind, if you are NOT looking at this from a human standpoint?
Where was Satan in the old testament besides Job ch 1?

taken directly from watchtower.org.. i invite all to highlight any contradictions you may find.. happy reading.... "jehovah's witnesses are interested in you and your welfare.
they want to be your friends and to tell you more about themselves, their beliefs, their organization, and how they feel about people and the world in which all of us live.
to accomplish this, they have prepared this brochure for you.. "in most ways jehovah's witnesses are like everyone else.
just to pat myself on the back again....
i took their words WAY out of context ha ha ha
bttt and read my revision

does this trouble anyone?.
it seems semantic tom-foolery to declare a war on terrorism, and then to say that prisoners of the war are not prisoners of war.. it also seems very suspect keeping them of proper usa soil, as where they are they are out of sight, mind, or appeal by civil-rights factions.. do not get me wrong.. i am not saying, "ah, poor ickle terrorists".. but in a war against terror, surely taking each and every opportunity to distance yourself from your enemies is the wisest and best course of action?.
why do anything that is even remotely dodgy or underhand?.
Feel free dirty larry,
It's your board you can complain if you want to.
One of my Chinese colleagues is a real source of insight about the flaws of the American culture. She is quite perceptive, considering she's only been here about 3 years.
Maybe it's because China has many flaws, too? Care to complain about China? he he he

why oh why oh why are there defenders of the wts posting and participating on an apostate website?!
surely the borg, correct me if i am wrong, tells (us)you to stay away from anything apostate.
to treat it with the disdain it deserves... so why?, i ask you, are you participating?
Britboy well said,
At one of the district conventions I attended within the last few years, one of the hotshot speakers (perhaps the new district overseer, but I can't recall) shot down cold all Law students in the audience.
He said, "What reason could anyone possibly have for going to Law School?"
Funny, huh, because I have a feeling my college roomate at the time, who was sitting next to me, was the ONLY one in the whole damn building!
How thoughtless, huh? Sounds like a witchhunt to me.
My old roomie desired to do major work for the 'Society', and he has served at Bethel. I hope they appreciate it. I have a feeling he was discouraged by more than that ignorant talk.

Very nice Abaddon,
Hopefully people are actually reading what you are saying rather than simply reacting to it emotionally.
'But I don't like Arab jihad extremists!' is the gist of the counter-argument. I am not saying I like them either. That's not the point.
Well, my last two cents before I retire:
'An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.'
What is really being done now to actively prevent further acts of terror from being commited in the US? Let me tell you, the answer isn't somewhere in Afghanistan. (Has everyone forgotten Timothy McVeigh already?)
In this case the 'cure' involves throwing money at the victims' families and vowing to scalp the 'cowardly' murderers. Do you know why terrorists don't fight fairly? Because they cannot fight fairly, plain and simple.
Terrorists aren't born terrorists, neither do they grow on trees in the deserts of the Middle East. (sorry for the oxymoron ) Osama bin Laden, for example, is a product of the US system of foreign affairs.
Has everyone forgotten that minor...actually, MAJOR detail? The US fed him, clothed him, gave him weapons, gave him a mission, and then....what happened?
Well, perhaps we'll never know the whole truth. That's information that we're not supposed to know, after all. But people tend to switch sides because they are disillusioned. (i.e. this discussion board)
Don't you want to know what he's really fighting for? He's got millions of dollars and with a nice shave, well, he could look as handsome and honest as myself, perhaps. He stubbornly refuses, however, choosing a guerilla lifestyle over a lifestyle akin to rich corporate America.
Why? What could possibly be so ugly about the United States and its mentality? (Even those crazy and fanatical JWs smell a rat )
The courageous thing to do is to look into the mirror.
