  Jehovah, the God of Justice, Executes the Wicked

  by TMS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the phrases still roll off my tongue, "a god of tender mercies", a god in whom there is no injustice", a god who "protects the little one.".

  in spite of those worn out platitides, if i walked in to a court room and saw the name "jehovah god" in metallic letters on the door, i would ask my attorney to make a motion to have the judge recused.

  i would prefer to take my judicial chances with any ticket-fixing, bribe-taking, alcoholic, mafia-controlled human judge than face the uneven, irrational and obscene judicial decisions made by god jehovah.. i cite the case of king david of israel.

  ...that term anymore, so are not disfellowshipped any more, but just no longer a witness, what is that?

  i wonder what word it will become to describe these ones and the action taken?

  we don't have one yet, but most dubs i know are still saying "he's disfellowshiped" oooo scary.

  by looloo in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  is it the law in england for elders to report child sex abuse to the police ?

  i think teachers and others in a position of trust have to .

  if not i dont understand why the elders themselves dont think it is wrong, if a brother confesed to the elders that he had murdered someone would they report that to the police ?

  Witnesses have no right to criticize

  by edmond dantes in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it seems to me that the borg has no right to criticize apparent wrongs in the world because their members are not allowed to take part in politics.for instance how can they call something in the worldly system wrong if they do not vote against it or do something constructive to change the status quo.. it's no use them complaining about something they disagree with and at the same time opt out of the system .in other words, it's nothing to with them so tell them to clear off and mind their own business and leave the worlds wrongs to people who are trying to do something constructive about it.. words in the waktower will not cure anything, positive action gets things done .. for heavens sake how much more ink are they going to waste and how many more trees are they going to destroy before they realise actions speak louder than words?.

  maybe someday the big stinky diaper known as the united nations will be moved off us soil so that tyrants and warlords like abnerjonadab, hugo chavez etc.

  i know that many here love anything or anybody that pisses off the us.

  Literal Death of God... what do you think?

  by DeusMauzzim in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  anyone here ever did some research on the "death of god" theological movement in the sixties, connected with names as altizer and van buren?.

  summary: the central idea is that god existed once, but literally died for us, emptying himself in the creation of the world, and later completely on the stauros.

  as he gave himself without holding anything back, there has been no resurrection as in mainstream theology (radical kenoma).

  i went to the grocery store today - no that's not your fault.. it's 103 degrees today, not bad.
