  Can some one explain how 607 is wrong

  by XQsThaiPoes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the watchtower and many others claim something happend in 607. this is based on the idea the bible is acurate.

  the watchtower states in a few places 586 is the "real date" but they would make the bible wrong which is a no no.

  i know they have a vested interest in 607. i can't figure out why is this such a controversy.

  This is a completely honest and heartwarming experience for those who are devoted to a cause they believe in. It expresses the parents belief in the resurrection. It illustrates the devotion of even young children. The lesson is the same as the widows contribution. It may seem small and insignificant but everyone's contribution is important and counts.

  Even if this were true, what kind of organization would publish such a thing as any sort of encouragement to do anything?

  Well this organization. Take a good look at it. This wraps up the organization in a nutshell.

  How The Watchtower Encourages Its Own Corruption

  by metatron in

  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

  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.

  Either could be applied to both.

  Generalities suck, don't you think?
