When a huge comet hits the earth destroying everything completely for hundreds of miles from
point of impact, this is not an indicator of an intelligent designer.
i have been thinking a great deal about where i stand at this moment in time in terms of a belief in a creator verses a belief in an evolutionary process.
i think the best way to describe it is an exploratory path.
i look at what is around me and i acknowledge it is remarkable.

The biggest case against an Intelligent Designer is his supposed representative here on earth, namely the WTS.
Being that the only evidence to date of a ID is ancient mythology, an earnest effort to keep inside of intellectual honesty,
one should express a negative conclusion.
so, how well hidden, is the exact meaning of this parable?
let's look at that parable now!.
45 "who then is a faithful and sensible slave,whom his master has put in charge of his household, to give them food at the proper time?
Its just a self serving moniker that they place on themselves , it helps in the literature circulation.
not to mention the placement of the power of god in their little hands.
there is a certain faith within the jw community that almost any problem can be answered by the "bulging brains" in brooklyn.
reading the awake!
regularly over a period of years has been compared to receiving a college education and one board participant here actually refers to jw researchers and writers as "celebrated scholars.".
Fraudulent information is not uncommon with the WTS.
Embellishing stories and manipulating information to serve their needs is part of their inherent corruption.
Is this really that surprising coming from a publishing house that claimed that Christ returned to earth in 1914.
i wonder if everyone here who has kept up with me since i left jw's realize why i have been coming on here.
it certainly has been cool to know that some of my experiences and opinions have helped some.
i hope they know that i have been equally helped by others.. i come here primarily for me.
Peace, love and understanding Jeff !
Maybe the hippies from the 60's were right after all.
Your philosophical viewpoints on the JWS faith come through with honesty and integrity,
thats my conclusion........... keep up the good work
i made this video to discuss the graphic and violent imagery the watchtower insists on showing young children.

Good point ,
Imprinting fear into the minds of children aids in the control of these children when they become adults.
Without fear the WTS. has no power .
did you find yourself disappointed in your life as a jehovah's witness?.
Yes convoluted bullshit about a non-existent god and a bunch a charlatans claiming to be his right hand man
here on earth, the brothers are just manipulated pawns in marketing scheme, for power and wealth.

Bloodless surgery has been promoted in recent years not by the stance of the JWS and their policy
but rather as a procedure to lessen the demand on short blood supplies, the very small chance of disease being
transfered by transfusions and other complications. The JWS are not really apart of this new type of medical procedure.
I'd like to know the reason why PURPLESOFA posted this thread.
the witnesses try to demonize the internet.
in your opinion is the internet the biggest problem for the watchtower organization?.
As long as the WTS keeps pumping fear into the hearts and minds of the flock that apostates are evil and full of lies,
the WTS will keep a lock down on most of the members. Orchestrated fear is the catalyst that keeps everything working
for the WTS. Disfellowshiping worked well for shutting up dissenters in the past , now they are confronted with the inter-net
and they cant shut up the net, so all they can do is tell people to beware of information out there.
i have a new take on the 587/586 "controversy".
this is of course, speaking for me over 3 years after i left.
i realize that if you are first leaving, this is a big deal.
It wasn't calculated by ideology. And CTR didn't invent it
I know pyramidology wasn't created out of the mind of CTR , but this speculative theory of these supposed times of mankind
were embraced by him and the B.S.
