  by oompa in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i mean how many of them really even want that?...most jws give away any interested person to a good ol pioneer..and not sure how many of them really want to make a disciple either....i mean she drives around endlessly with her chick friends...lots of starbucks...dunkin and kk...and they dont want a frikkin study....really????

  ?...........just a vent...oompa.

  btw in my legal divorce papers response today i did say she was not blameless...stated that chose to be part of a religious sect that shuns me totally since i am no longer a believer...and that it has caused me extreme distress and anxiety....

  Thats really common among JWS my father for example has been a constant JWS for 60 years never had a personal study.

  Same deal with my sister whose been a practicing JWS all her life never has had a Study either, the list goes on.

  I think they try and avoid it, but they do go out in service to make it look like they are more and willing to (Zeal)

  start one. To them I think its more about their own representation they are endeavored to create in their congregations.

  More about self image creating and not really about saving others. There is a bit of pretentious selfishness with a lot of JWS.

  Watchtower Apologist does not find Don Cameron's book acceptable!

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  http://settingtherecordstraight.wordpress.com/category/don-cameron-a-captive-of-misconcepts/.

  witnesses, how can cameron assert that jehovahs witnesses only believe what a small governing body of men tell them when other religions have.

  but yet, when jehovahs witnesses believe the same things cameron says it is only.

  Jehovah’s Witnesses are encouraged to “make sure of all things” and “hold fast to what is fine”,

  Accept putting the WTS's own doctrines through subjective scrutiny by using the bible or any other means.

  This is not tolerated, anyone in doing so will be duly muzzled and forth rightly demonised by their fellow spiritual peers.

  Anyone finding discrepancies in are doctrines are expected to shut up about it and keep it to themseves......or else !

  by bioflex in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i read about this topic sometime ago in one awake mag (cant rememer which one).

  and from the jw perspective, he didnt know which means it took him by suprise or which makes it seem god is not as almighty as we would believe.

  this is their reasoning.. http://www.watchtower.org/e/20110101a/article_01.htm.

  How the Watchtower corporation really works (beginning to end)

  by Terry in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in 1925, judge rutherford penned an article of extreme controversy titled the birth of the nation.. the editorial committee (russell had created) would not approve it.. .

  ruthford moved swiftly to remove them!

  he then hid his massacre cleverly:.

  How the Watchtower corporation really works (beginning to end)

  This publishing house lures people by selling maleficence of reality as a means to create public emotional appeal

  to support the proliferation of its published works for exploiting individuals to whom they have lured toward the organization.

  A better question might be why did god let a powerful angel known as Satan go to the Garden and tempt those weak human mortals ?

  Another one, is why didn't Eve run away in fright seeing a snake talk to her.

  I'm sure all the other snakes in the garden didn't talk.

  What language did Eve and Adam use and who taught them the language ?
