  hi guys,.

  my name is ruari phillips, i'm 21 years old and if possible...i'd like to ask a question.. jehovahs witnesses believe the world is getting worse and that as time passes we are approaching armageddon.. but, haven't we always lived in a cruel world?.

  since the begginning of time we've been killing each other, there's been diseases, death and destruction.

  Ruari,

  Good question, the reason why JWs say that is because we are experiencing all these problems (violence, disasters, crime and so on), on such a widespread (worldwide) basis. If you look at statistics (don't listen to crumpet, she's clueless, I work in this field, I study crime for a living), you will see that events are occuring differently today than let's say 50 years ago. Previously we used to go through many disasters, but they weren't as frequent and as widespread as they are today. Crime is escalating at an alarming rate. For example, statistics show that in High Schools rape has more than tripled in the past 50 years.

  You have no clue what you're talking about, I work for Statistics Canada, stats are right in front of me. I suggest you practice what you preach, and if you don't know what you're talking about, better no to talk at all. Things are getting worse, it's a FACT.

  Worldly girl, easy with the language, a little more respect before you call such an important worship tool "sucks". You may think the music isn't good, but you don't have to be rude.

  Come on guys, anyone who knows the witnesses know they aren't racist...at least give them that.

  In the past, they used to write a lot of weird stuff, things are different now...relax with the racism...
