  Animals not meant to eat meat

  by Carl in

  jw don't believe in evolution .

  how come animals teeth are designed to chew meat?

  sharks for instance have razor sharp pointy teeth these are not to eat vegetation .

  Mankind was supposed to have been given permission to eat animals after the flood of Noah`s day , by GOD ,presumably because it would take some time for the earth to sprout enough vegetation for the Arks inhabitants.

  So what about marine life ,? how was that affected by the flood .? The sea is full of flesh eating marine life that has apparently been going on for centuries before the flood , since creation.

  The flood upon the earth would have had very little impact on the food source available under the sea for marine life.

  Yet all sea life/ creatures live off the life of other sea creatures / life , just as land animals did , and that has always been the case.

  Before , and after , the Noachian flood

  Are they either leaving or going full on 'cult mode'? No quarter.

  by punkofnice in

  it might just be me imagining things.. i hear things from my jw spies.. from all that's being said, it seems to me that the rank and file(tm), are either waking up to the scam and fading/leaving.

  they are going full on 'cult mode' and acting like 'spiritual police'.. is it just me and my imagination?

  have others noticed this?.

  Do you have any examples or statistics to support your observation ? I have been out for over 20 years , so I wouldn`t have a clue .however it would make my day if it was true.

  LNO .

  You do have supporters and friends here , where you can come to any day or night and just vent or rejoice in whatever mood your in ,and someone can interact with you.

  And I concur wholeheartedly with what FD has said

  take care.

  PS , hopefully your hubby will see through the BS sooner rather than later.

  " We also ask that you temporarily do not use any printed literature in your own preaching ministry, use only the Bible " and preferably not a JW Bible .

  And the reason for that is of course is because printed literature identifies the WTB&TS as the source of the said printed literature , and they want to distant themselves from a persons religious activity .

  Another classic example of throwing the "JW witness " under the bus. , your on your own buddy , don`t expect any help from us .It`s your personal decision .

  according to the jw doctrine, mankind has tried every form of goverment but ultimately failed to rule successfully.

  Why Jehovah had to kill off every living thing that moved on the ground I`ll never understand .

  He was pissed off with humans OK ? Why did he have to kill off all the animals ? what did they ever do against him.?

  The story makes no sense

  just wanted to say hello, i have been visiting this site for a very long time and i feel like i know so many of you already, now you can get to know me but for now i'm fading so i cant give my complete story.

  i'm single but have "hardcore" siblings in the religion, thankfully i do have family who never expressed interest in the jws.

  i really checked out years ago from to much mental abuse and no recognition for all that i gave to this organization.
