Great Experiences- I was serfing the net ad came across APOSTATES

wow, yeah i was looking fr the theocratic ministry school oral review questions and i came across an apostate site!

the site was www.jehovahs-witness.com and was just fill of retarded apostates!

they were not only using a domain name and header name that denotes a conection with the actual watchtower society, but where using it to blasphem the jehovah's true organization in order to help people break away.

every once in a while, i'll drive thru the blocks of our old territory, remebering the friends, how we would share time in the ministry.

reminiscing about those i left.

every so often, i'll pull out the old photographs.

Tribute to London Emergency Services

.

i have watched with sheer amazement all day the work of the emergency services; their sheer dedication and professionalism and skill will no doubt prevent & reduce the further prospect of fatalities....i think they deserve a huge round of applause...if ever i have had opportunity to be patriotic it is now.... what do you think?.

...as a firefighter I feel truly glad that you people feel this way. So how does it make you feel when I tell you that members of the fire service in the UK go to terrorist incidents and the government still have not addressed the issue of insurance for us. If a firefighter gets killed or whilst attending a terrorist threat then his life insurance is at the moment invalid. that would leave families with mortgages to pay, loans to deal with etc. And yet we still go.... If you feel strongly enough about the way the emergency services react to incidents, I would implore each one of you to write to your MP, getting the government to address the slow destruction of the fire service under the guise of modernisation. If you need more info then go to www.fbu.org.uk where you will find many of the issues surrounding the fire service and what the government is doing to us. you will also be able to contact your MP through this site. Thanks and sorry for getting political on your asses!!

Is Love of God Real?

by donkey in

jw
friends

since we cannot prove that god exists and believers claim that we need to have faith that he does indeed exist one can ask: can you truly love someone that you do not know exists?

if you went to your friends and declared your absolute love for someone and when they asked you who you loved you said: "i love jennifer with all my heart.

" and if the friends then asked to meet jennifer and you said "i have believe she exists but i have never met her, never communicated with her, never seen her..." would you your friends think you were cuckoo?

Evan, I find your posts interesting, we're not against you at all. Don't be thinking that or I'll have to give you a spanking!! However, I think what I find with you posts (and remember this is only my thoughts, not intended to hurt) is that you talk in platitudes. You say things but those statements are without substance. You post religious ideas and yet the problem with that is that there are many people here who dont have your faith. That is why we find it hard to accept the love or even existence of a god. It's not a dig at you though. remember that....

'Are you sure about that? God is trying to talk to you but will you listen?'

How? By writing a book full of fairy stories? By sending people to earth witl a load of irrelevant ramblings? How exactly is god trying ot speak to us? I thought it was all powerful. Has it not heard of the phone, the TV, the internet, e-mail, snail-mail? Where is this marvellous speech coming from god? The Bible. Don't make me laugh. Why would an all popwerful ominpresent being use an old fashioned mode of communication that is sure to be bastardized by every one that reads it? WHY?

'God really loves you all, whether you believe in him or not, it will not change the facts.' So god loves us. Thats why we're constantly threatened with not serving him and the result being dying at armageddon, going to hell, getting reincarnated as a work, whatever, take your pick. Jesus, thats REAL love aint it.

'Know that he is there to ease your brokenheart from the damage the Jehovah's witness did to you,' you really believe that don't you? How can god ease a broken heart? The JW's didnt break my heart, the religions/liars of the world tried to, but I came through all that shite believing in the simplicity that we are just here for our time and thats it. Simple enough for ya?

And using the parable of the lost sheep? Are you saying that to god we have the same brain capacity as a sheep? The same amount of free will? Sheep have no free will, they feed when fed, bathe whaen bathed etc. We are far superior to sheep. If a god gave us free will and then punishes us for using it, then god is a total arsehole. Why create something you know will not do what you want it to do and then get pissed when that happens? You wouldn't. and thats why I dont believe in god.

'Hell is only reserved for those who reject god.' So, I don't believe in any sort of god. I have no proof it exists. I have never spoken to any sort of deity. And said deity has never bothered to speak to me. As a result, I can't think why I would want to acknowledge the existence of a god, let alone love it. By your previous statement, that means I am condemned to spend eternity in hell, right? In fact, to add insult to injury, you claim 'Really we are the ones that send ourselves to hell by rejecting gods grace.' Therefore, my future demise and descent into the depths of hell, to suffer eternal fiery torment, is all my fault!! Get real. You cannot possibly meant that. I mean, religion has resulted in some REALLY stupid things being said and done on this planet, but your statement that those in hell (which doesn't exist) have sent themselves there is total hogwash. And quite disturbing too. Surely, if there is a hell, it should be reserved for priests who interfere with children and the types who plant bombs on buses....

Gays and the Bible.

by gumby in

first of all.....i ain't bashin gays here......just have a question.. this morning i read in the paper that the united church of christ has unanimously approved of same sex marriage.

this now is the largest protestant sect who has approved of gay marriages.. my question is.......how does religion justify a way of life the bible condems as sinful?

what is their scriptural argument to justify this action as proper?.

i think most people here are missing the point. Here is the news. THE BIBLE IS TOTAL BOLLOCKS!!! don't take any notice of what it says. It's all lies and some goat herders take on life. Get out in the real world. Meet people. Climb mountains. Do anything but read that crock of shit....

WHO WILL TAKE YOUR FUNERAL

friends

dont mean to be morbid here.

but as a jw all of this was taken care of.

now i think if i were to die tomorrow i wouldnt want a jw funeral (although technically i could still qualify) and i wouldn't even want any of my former associates who abandoned me when i needed them most to be there... so what arrangements have you made.

andy2tanx

this is something we have spoke about. I do a dangerous job, so it's always in my mind to a greater or lesser degree. I want my organs donating to whoever needs them.. One of the lads at work had a wife die young last year, and her organs saved teh lives of 5 people. What a legacy. Cremate the rest of me, I don't give a shite about that. Then I want £1000 sticking behind the bar so everyone can have a good old party for me, hopefully I'll be wandering around in some form of ephemeral guise watching my mates enjoying themselves!! And the music had better be REALLY loud, preferably The Stone Roses singing 'I Am The Resurrection.' I kid you not! It's one of my favourite songs. Check it out.
