Despite their false predictions aren't the JWs right? Won't the world eventually end & Paradise come?

by deegee in

aren't there christian denominations who do not make false end of the world predictions but who nevertheless believe that the world will eventually end and paradise (whether in heaven or on earth) will come?.

it seems the watchtower was just jumping the gun when they made false end of the world predictions but they are nevertheless the right: the world will eventually end and paradise will come..

Hortensia

No. They're not right in any way.

she passed faithful to the end to them!

by jookbeard in

just found out (second hand of course) and by someone on here that my faithful jw mum passed away within the last couple of days, dont know the exact day, and what cause, she spent the last few years living with my fanatical sister, she was 65 and survived my father by 10 years, bitter, angry and hateful till the end and never as so much enquired or asked how her 2 grandchildren ever were , they are 5 and 7!

feeling a mixture of emotions right now, they were lousy parents in all honesty, she suffered health wise so maybe its for the best, dont even know when the funeral is!

I'm sorry for your loss. I felt weird after my father died. I hated him, but was sad when he died. My shrink said that the death of a parent like that is sad because it's the death of hope that one day there might be a change.

If Obama had a son..

part of the story..."two 15-year-old philadelphia boys face murder charges for shooting a man while he walked his dog, firing the final round as he pleaded for his life, authorities said.. the cold-hearted teens and a 14-year-old boy targeted 51-year-old james stuhlman for a robbery after they tired of playing basketball, police captain james clark told reporters.. at one point, he did plead for his life, clark said thursday at a news conference.

he said, please dont shoot me, please dont shoot me, and they shot still shot him one more time.. cops busted brandon smith on murder charges, but the hunt is on for the alleged triggerman, tyfine hamilton.. hes considered armed and extremely dangerous, clark said.".

So, what's your point? You think that if President Obama had a son, the son would be a ruthless killer? What does this story have to do with Obama?

hey all,.

i'm curious about the times and places we all come and check in on this great forum.. is it after a long day at work while having a drink, or during the work day on your mobile tablets, or quickly in-between family evenings etc...?.

do most "hide" their tracks when using the family computer, perhaps using "private browsing"?.

Hortensia

Oh, along about midnight or so -- in the middle of the night.

My academic career !

i've decided to graduate at the end of this year (2015).

i need 69 credit points to graduate successfully at my university, and i already have about 80. i also have to write a capstone essay (of 5000 words) on a ancient history topic.

in addition, i'm doing two other 5000 word research essays this year.

Hortensia

What a lot of hard work -- but you seem to really enjoy research and study. I've enjoyed your history threads -- some interesting stuff I might not have read about otherwise.
