i remember a topic a couple months ago, something about whether the gb actually believed in what they taught.

other topics have been similar lately, and today i noticed the topic about google 'proving' that the wts deliberately lies.

but is it deliberate?

Biblical chronology
by Anti-Christ in
1. watchtower
2. bible
i found an article on internet infidels about the 430 years the israelites spent in egypt, very interesting.

i would like to have some of your comments on it.. .

future articles will examine in detail specific examples of textual errors in the bible, so for now i will review only briefly a few of the ones that cast serious doubts on the doctrine of bible inerrancy.

Religions similar to JWs.
by LtCmd.Lore in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
does anyone know of any religions that are very similar to jehovahs witnesses?.

it tends to come up in discussions with them a lot, they like to think that they are the only ones that don't believe in hell, the trinity, that jesus died on a stake, that they won't go to heaven, or stuff like that.

i could probaby just prove them wrong, but that would take forever and it would be a lot easier to just say: "you're not as unique as you think...".

What is/was the last most believable date for second coming/Armageddon?
by AllAlongTheWatchtower in
1. watchtower
2. bible
i was never a witness, i joined this site after my wife started studying with them, and i got upset over some of the things that resulted from that.

however, i grew up in a similar high-control group called the worldwide church of god.

much like the witnesses, in the mid 70s ( i forget the exact year, i was only in elementary school in those days, but it may have been 75, just like jws), there was a big push toward the end being at hand, the great tribulation is coming, etc etc.

Seven times - Daniel
by Bonnie_Clyde in
1. watchtower
2. bible
somebody (maybe terry) posted about a month ago, and clyde is asking me about it.

it was real cute about the wt reasoning about the "seven times" equalling days and years and the whole jumbled mess.

my memory is not working today.

Watchtower 2007 3/15 -- Is 1914 dropped?
by observer in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
watchtower 2007 3/15 is very unusual.

it is titled (when freely translated) "how coming of the christ affects you?".

in the first article there is not speaking about 1914 or invisible presence.
