Speak up man! What or who are you? I bet there are no real JWs here, right? The real JW site will not allow anyone else to even enter their site.
Are we just preaching to the choir?

Hi Kent. Give it to me straight; is anyone here a JW? If there are, they surely hide the fact.

WHY THE WATCHTOWER IS DOOMED!
by You Know inisaiah 30:21 is an oft quoted scripture by the watchtower.
it reads: "and your own ears will hear a word behind you saying: "this is the way.
walk in it, you people, in case you should go to the right or in case you should go to the left.

<<According to God's good purpose then, the Watchtower has served as an effective, albeit defective, instrument that will have accomplished his will by gathering a people earthwide that are generally in expectation of his judgments. But, while we may assume that we know how his judgments will unfold, the prophecy indicates that the final test will result because of our false assumptions and blind allegiance. This scenario was played out on a small scale in the first century when the apostles assumed that Christ's kingdom was going to be a visible restoration of the Davidic kingdom. Their sifting and shaking came when the shepherd was struck and they, the sheep, were momentarily scattered. >>
You Know, you seem to be a psuedo JW. Since you don't like the "apostates" making fun of you, why don't you tell us how much of the W T you DO believe, if any? You seem to think that Jehovah will remain with the JWs, yet you do go against the Gov Body's orders.
Come on now, be specific on which side of the fence (or middle) you starddle.

Is You Know a JW, or just a delusional prophet of another sort? Can you tell me anyone here who IS a JW?
Check www.about.com forums. They have 1,000s of posts and topics to choose from. The JW site is closed to the general public. Does anyone know Xatheist who is a JW in the Houston area?

Say, I am confused here. Are there any witnesses here that are glad to proclaim this? I am told there are JWs here, but I haven't seen anyone who would lay claim to being one.
Come out where ever you are!

WHY THE DOLLAR IS DOOMED
by You Know injesus pointed out the hypocrisy of those in his day whose faithlessness led them to become intransigent in the face of jesus' credentials as the messiah and all that that entailed as to jehovah's judgments.
likewise, the prophets indicate that ridiculers and apostates will proclaim themselves to be unconvinced concerning the evidence of christ presence and impending judgment of this system.
jesus' rebuke is equally applicable today, where he acknowledged that his generation was expert in using their powers of reason to interpret the changing clouds and winds to accurately predict the next day's weather, and yet jesus said of them: "hypocrites!

Excuse me for not knowing you. Your profile leave out any damning evidence.
Are you familiar with Ray Franz? Would you expound on the veracity of his testimony? You do know he voted the right way on the failed prophecy of 1975?
Why is it that if anyone disagrees with the WT that they are disf'd, even if later proved right? Surely Franz had the direction of Jesus who had come back in 1914?

??? Are you a JW? If you say "apostate," do you mean the JWs who continue to make false prophecies about the end? This has been falsly prophecied by Russell since he used the Great Pyramid of Egypt as a "Prophecy in Stone!" He added 41 inches to the pyramid to make it read 1914 when the 1874 prophecy failed.
The he just said Jesus came back Spiritually. If Jesus IS back and is directing the WTB&TS, why do they still make false predictions?

Interpretation of Scripture
by chacha incan the bible be interpreted correctly only by the watchtower?.
do you believe that the bible was written to all people?

Hi Pat. Like you, I am now an agnostic or non believer in any human God of torture.
I discovered (in my old age) that the JWs also believe that God cursed all creation for a wee wee sin, and then proceeded to torture most of creation in the flood and Sodom, even little children and even fetuses which I suppose He aborted and took to Heaven.
At least the JWs will not accuse God of torturing anyone forever. The JWs may also believe that God answers prayers, but if this is so, He surely is picky because He doesn't even help the innocent JW children who are brutally raped, tortured or murdered.
How can anybody say God answers prayers?
I am 67 years old and I was the Cong Servant in San Angelo Texas in 1954.

My wife's name is Cha Cha. She has to use Cha_Cha_uno because someone got Cha Cha first!
<<Today, more than ever before there are many religious groups which lead people astray from true Christianity.Lets see if we can agree on certain identifying marks of such groups.
Do you think a person should examine not only the teachings, but also the history of any religious organization before deciding it is the truth?>>Are we in danger of getting locked out here? Are some here really JWs?
If the Mormons have many credible witnesses to the Golden Plates, why are they now believed? Christians only have 2nd or 3rd hand hearsay that was transcribed later, after the "fact." What is one to believe?
I still can't understand why there should be so many "Prophecies" by the Watchtower which fail, if Jesus is back and directing the WTB&TS. What role IS Jesus now playing if anything?
Did you ever get an answer to your question?

I still do not have an answer to my question " Do you believe that anyone , anywhere,who just had a Bible, and no other litature, could understand it and be saved?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<<That is really not mine to answer. I would say it is a good start. I will say this, God will "save" whomever He wants. But it's good to know He is a Just and Merciful God. He is like our Daddy you know, He does want what's best for us.>>
Surely God would "save" any sincere seeker who only had a Bible? That brings up an interesting point. If a person is born without knowlege of any God or Bible, and dies that way, will God give him multiple choices to choose from after the Resurrection? This person would have an unfair advantage over someone who had to sort through 2,000 varieties of Christianity.
