  Mays JW TV Broadcast/Your feedback is appreciated

  by ToesUp in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have a pretty good intuition but i have to admit i am going back and forth on the jw tv may broadcast.

  i keep asking myself are they really in financial trouble (wishful thinking) or are they just grabbing for more money?.

  i always appreciate reading everyone's thoughts and ideas on here.. let me know what you think.

  Brother Carlin said it best...

  “Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time!
  
  But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money!”

  Since man is unable to create life does this mean

  by Crazyguy in

  does this mean possible a creator did or does exist.

  there is plenty of evidence of a slow evolutionary changes over millions of years and i do not disagree with this.

  but again that fact that mankind can not create a living creature from scratch mean there must be a creator?

  Man hasn't created life... yet...

  think if it was 1902 you would be saying since man has never flown...

  is completely right, from a business perspective these "fiscal" things are all manufactured and controlled. Especially the org, think about it, the they are very much in control of the money they lay out, they dont HAVE to build halls really, if its going bankrupt them, also mortgages that can be used on property holdings could sustain them for some time, and lets not for get the float... yes... when you have gobs of millions and maybe even billions of dollars in transactions, you can reap pretty decent dollar amounts on interest off of floating those amounts, like a bank. Its a show.

  Christ in You The Hope of Glory:Being Realized

  by hopeofglory in

  2. bible

  the mystery of the ages was revealed to the gentiles 2000 years ago.

  the mystery is "christ in you, the hope of glory" (colossians 1:27).

  the churches do not and never will teach this even though it was revealed to the gentiles.

  is it more likely to be the men or women who leave first?

  by sowhatnow in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was just pondering the other day, is it more likely that a man will leave a religion, or a woman?

  is there a way to know if the men on the site outnumber the women or vice versa as to who found out ttat first and left.. im going to suggest men.

  basically because men in general, do not like to be told what to do.

  Another reason god is a terrible "father"

  by _Morpheus in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  its easy to look around and say if a singular all powerful were real he would stop the suffering of man and animal, a position i support.

  however there is another even more basic premise i have pondered at times as well (im sure im not the first of course) : would any loving parent ever hide from their children?

  consider it... our all knowing all loving father hides from us even though we cry out to know him.

  Sofia this story you have been taught is an apologists way of trying to justify a cruel god in a not cruel way, its not real doctrine or fact, its 2+2=5... because it just has to =5.

  People justify abusive spouses in a similar way, ignoring the atrocities they commit and trying to make up a reason they aren't horrible.

  YHWH is an abusive relationship
