  How The Watchtower Encourages Its Own Corruption

  by metatron in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  to the naive, an unpaid clergy may sound wonderfully idealistic.

  someone may quote.

  jesus words about a "hired man" who guards the sheep - instead of paul's counsel about.

  This does sound good, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

  Oh, I think there will be a decline, but I think it will come eventually in the form of a slow, steady one into irrelevance.

  my views to my parents, results

  by crizlee in

  i shared with my parents your evil apostate views, and they called it propaganda, they didnt want me to look at it anymore.

  and then they said if they are true, this religion is the most pure anyway.

  i feel bad for my dad mostly, he was a soldier stationed in korea and met my mom there who begin to study and turned out to be a totaly different woman he met(she use to like to party drink, was pretty cool, after study she turned up tight and was always in his face).

  Hmm, I would throw the "There is no God, at least not the one you think there is" idea out there, but maybe even if there is a God, he is just not so concerned with human affairs as we may think he is or want him to be. Maybe our concept of God is a totally human creation? Maybe God CAN'T do anything about our suffering. Or maybe humans are just left to our own devices.

  July 15 Watchtower article on Blood

  by XBEHERE in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in the 7/15 wt i dont recall the exact page, i dont have the magazine here at work but there is a chart that lists blood, what components are up to you and which ones are not allowed at all.

  anyway its very odd because they list which ones christians should avoid from left to right, i.e.

  red blood cells, white blood cells, plasma, etc.

  I have heard this before and I like to think of the blood situation this way:

  Life is very precious. Life is so precious that God demanded that blood be pured out as a symbol of life in order to show respect for life. Since God has such a high regard for life, then why would he want someone to lose their life, to die, before they "misuse" that which is merely a symbol of of that precious life?

  mt sister recently asked me to go on a cruise but to get to the ship ( not sure which one yet ) we have to take a plane to get there.

  no i am not really scared of the plane crashing ( well sorta ) but i have a fear of heights, who has this fear ?

  i have never flown and the thought is making me sick.

  Hmm, the good apostates seem to all be turning into normal people after several years of helping people see the light. I think that capacity of yours, to reach the minds of people, even though you may think it is obsolete, will be sorely missed.

  May there always be someone out there to fill your shoes to light the path of a wandering dub.

  Recent Changes In Me...

  by FMZ in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i seem to have been asked a lot lately why i have changed so much since the dallas apostafest.

  i agree i have been through some changes lately, quite major ones even.. i am still not completely sure when exactly i changed, whether it was in texas, before the fest, or after the fest, but i am certainly glad my changes show to all you beautiful people.

  i guess changing the very foundation of my life itself does have an impact on the exterior .

  Just remember, the world is filled with less evil than you think. Evil just gets all the air-play...
