  New Light = "We don't know"

  I am amazed that an answer like that can be viewed by 6 million people as spiritual food......

  ** Asking the Hard Questions **

  i picked up the holy trinity episcopal church june newsletter today.

  this was included on page 5. i was raised in the episcopal church until the summer of 1970, when my mother moved us to atlanta after her divorce from my dad.

  she stopped taking us to church, much to my detriment.

  I remember a poster the Episcopal church had at one time, a crown of thorns with the caption that read something similiar to:

  "He died to take away your sins, not your mind"

  He has the look of a pedophile! Creepy!!

  This is an unfair statement.....the couple is identified by name on this site, statements like this just reenforce the views that JWs have of non-JWs (but they should not be on here reading this stuff anyway, should they Reniaa)

  honestly, i never believed in the chronology.

  "no man knows the day or the hour" was pretty clear to me..

  My wife is buying the last days of the last days stuff pretty strongly right now, and if I talk to her about the continual slip in the dates, she does not even blink, that is when she throws out the 'no one knows when.....'.....argh!

  Must see video on Youtube where a JW is clearly defeated on the trinity subject...

  personally i hate bible ping-pong.

  i don't think it ever gets anywhere, i don't think it solves anything and i don't think the participants ever make any head room.

  however i will say in this case, i have been proven wrong.

  My experience at the District Convention today - Appreciate your comments

  by BonaFide in

  i know i am the one to constantly harp on this board how the organization has lost its "swagger" and the baptism and attendance is going down, and people are waking up.. not so fast.. the audience cried, i mean a lot of people cried when they played some of the songs from the new songbook.

  some had bethel singers who sounded pretty good singing them.

  so many after the program were saying how touched they were.. then the new release of the book showing how the book of acts prefigures the organization today.

  I commented about apostates today at the meeting

  by cognac in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i couldn't help myself.

  it was so obnoxious what the paragraph was saying about apostates.. so i said that having a difference of opinion is not a problem but really as brought out by thessolonians it is when a person raises themselves up above god to have people follow them instead of god that they are considered bad in god's eyes.. i don't even know if it had anything to do with the question, but i just wanted to say that, lol..

  I want to thank you

  few of my threads get to 3 pages of responses and i suspect that i am the one who pushes it by responding to everyone.

  who posts.. but i know people read my posts.. there have certainly been times when i needed the support and got it.

  but those times are fewer now.. sometimes i feel like i am repeating myself and i probably am.
