i am sick and tired of this argument with witnesses.
every time i try to talk to anyone about anything jw related, this is the response, "but no one else is preaching the good news door to door...".
the jw version of the good news is nothing but amway or electrolux or kirby!.
Wasted petrol,greenhouse gas,global warming. Use modern technology you can preach to dictator countries like other religion do.Why has China got over 100 million bibles it's not not by going from hut to hut,tent to tent,it's by using t.v.,radio,internet,satellite radio.and maybe a donkey.

your organization has always been intently focused on "witnessing" and this includes going right up to strangers homes, knocking on their door attempting to engage them in a discussion of their beliefs.
you come prepared to point out the error of whatever faith they hold.
doctrines such as immortality of the soul, the trinity and eternal torment in hell you declare as false teachings and can back up your assertions with scriptures and skilled argument.
Welcome yourmomma:You bring some good Jehovah's Witnesses points.For example".....witnesses are probably not the religion for you" Please explain last sunday's watchtower where the wives would not accompany their religion believing husbands to church or a funeral.Oh, so many things so sad.

ok, this is officially my favorite part of the meeting.
that i barely survived sitting through tuesday:.
be book, p224.
Inkling,may I say credibility and Jehovah's Witnesses are as opposite as sunrise from sunset,as day from night.For Ex,Dec15/07WT.Hurricane Katrina "a group of volunteers chance upon a house crushed by fallen trees" Hello.category five Hurricane,chance upon a house.Than they make belief JW volunteers only do good.

first off, i make no claim to being an authority on cults or mind control.
i do however have first hand experience of it by being a victim of it.
how does the wts begin to excercise control over one's mind?
Very good points I agree wholeheartly.You know the song that the WBTS condemn"Please release me and let me love again" They said it was about a married partner who loved someone else and wanted out of the marriage.Well I say "Please release me and let me get out of this god forsaken cult"

i did not want to start a new topic but i didn't know where to put it.the wbts says we are living in the last days because god has allowed mankind enough time to prove he can't rule himself,jer.10:23.the wbts was changed their mind on blood by allowing the use of fractions due to advances in medical technology.well you say what has that got to do with the last days.what about the advances in the human genome.if man is given enough time maybe he can fine the defective gene that god put in the first humans.they can fine a cure and correct it.then man can live forever.if god ends this system now,he did not give science a chance.the wbts should not put the blame on faulty gov't, for all the bad things in the world.like i said science is in the first nonosecond of research in the human genome.god has to give them at least 1 billion years.after that he can do what he wants.. bob.
Thanks for your input:To,Heathen.maybe not forever but a longer than 100 years or so.TO.WTWizard I like you point of view.
Xavier1,see WT:QFR-Oct1,94,June1,90,June 1,94 and June 15,04.Oct15,2000 Nov06KM.Aug2006 Awake.Tipical WTBS circular reasoning.
Philippus79-Satan's challenge.Just a question, was it a challenge to rulership or a statement?For example if I say to you jump off a 50 story bldg it won't kill you.What would your reply be or would you believe me and go ahead and jump.Is it my fault that you are dead or was it your poor judgement.Now is it my fault that that those who jump off tall bldging and kill themselves.Did not God create humans with intelligence.Please help me see how a question by Satan turns into rulership,sovereighty,vindication of a name,etc,etc,

please have a look at the white horse on page 91 of rev climax book(the horse that jesus is riding).
this horse is what a horse should look like.
(don't look at it too long or you may be tempted) now look at the same white horse on page 23 of the feb 15th 2008 wt.
5 other buildings remain on the market.

I agree with lldh it's an inside job.They are selling to Brothers who will in turn will sell for a profit and donate to Mother Corp.Or it is a take over by some insiders.Kick out the old folks save money like any big Corporation.They are good business savvy people.

ok i have about 4 friends who don't know that i am out of the org.
because there is 3000 miles between us and the subject has not come up.. well one of them has emailed me a jpg copy of each page of the public edition of the wt.. i was feeling a little ornery, and i replied back.
i said wow having a private copy and then a public copy of the wt makes me feel like a secret agent.
Beware of the traps of the birdcatcher.They will use the public edition of the WT to trap or ensnare the people with this devised cunning method.Before the individuals are aware they are trapped.Like an animal once it's in a trap, to get out it has to chew it's leg off.Same with people they suffer the same fate.

as per the subject, i am looking for quick references on just how many deaths actuallyh occured during wwii???????
pls need info for book study!!
!1
The 1988 edition of the Revelation.Its Grand Climax At Hand.Page 185 para 28,"In Europe some ten thousand Witnesses were incarcerated in Nazi concentration camps, and thousands died" The 2005 printing of the same book"In Europe some 12,000 Witnesses were incarcerated in Nazi concentration camps and prisons,and about 2,000 died.They WBTS is wishy-washy with their numbers.Was it 10,000 or 12,000,was it 1.000 or 2,000.You can't go by their numbers,because they can change their history without a blink of an eye.
