  Go to your local laundromat and find any typical Watchtower magazine. You will find plenty of what you want.

  : From what is known about the particle now, physicists have said the Higgs boson may spell the universe's doom in the very far future.

  Shoot. The Bible said about that same thing when the ancients still believed the earth was resting on a "foundation", and that Jesus could see the entire planet from a mountain top, and men with long hair were like superman, and donkeys and snakes talked and stuff, athough they didn't know about "Higgs". "Higgs" is just another translation from the galaxy far, far away where the name is known as "Jehovah," killer of planets and anything else which pisses Him off. This would also presume the killing of the Universe if and when Jehovah is having a bad hair day and not enough books are being sold and believed to make Him happy.

  Then again, "Jehovah" is pretty much never happy. We are all doomed.

  Applying Genesis Laws to Blood Transfusions appears to be ridiculous!

  deuteronomy 14:21new international version (niv).

  21 do not eat anything you find already dead.

  you may give it to the foreigner residing in any of your towns, and they may eat it, or you may sell it to any other foreigner.. .

  Terry,

  Marvin Shilmer made some points, but he didn't make all the points and he knows it.

  Around the turn of this Century there was a website called jwbloodreview and in it several very smart people made contributions to it. I know who they are and trust me, they are very smart and knowledgeable.

  The site contained a paper which disected 3 topics regarding blood, and in fact discussed ALL of the Biblical evidence the WTS used to promote their no blood policy. Moreover, that paper demolished all three lines of arguments used by the WTS.

  These were:

  The Noachian Covenant (trashed)

  The Mosaic Covenant (trashed)

  The apostolic decree (trashed)

  That paper alone destroyed the entire WT argument for its insane policies regarding the transfusion of blood. (I wasn't one of the smart ones asked to contribute, but I did fetch the burritos and take out the trash when asked.)

  I happen to know someone who left the WTS who held a dead baby who was dead because of that insane WT policy. That experience is beyond my comprehension, but it is certainly a moment to take pause and ponder. While the WTS makes heroes out of the little children who died for no good reason (and puts them on the front page of an Awake! magazine), they never held a dead little baby in their arms who was dead ONLY because of their own WT idiocy. They NEVER take responsibility for ANY of their insanity and the unintended consequences of their insanity. They just trade an old insanity and replace it with a new insanity with total impunity. It bothers them not that people get hurt, ruined and even die for their insanities. They just force their drones to recruit new victims on whom they can try some new, unfounded theories.

  One of my very good friends in my dub days did his four-year sentence in Bethel and in 1960 he lost his very young wife who bled after giving birth and who (because of the WTS) was not given a much-needed blood transfusion. The baby survived and in fact later became the best friend of my former wife. The father was still loyal when I left. I hope to God he finally wised up and got out of that sewer of lies and manipulation.

  The thousands of lives lost due to this horrible policy is a perfect example of the Law of Unintended Consequences: it looked good on paper, but in reality it is a disaster because high school educated morons in Brooklyn listened to the insane reasoning of a college dropout mad man who insisted that millions of people live out the consequences of his Biblical fantasies.

  I am talking about the man who made Judge Rutherford look like a saint. I'm talking about Frederick William Franz, the best friend Satan ever had.

  : As a result, we're known as the family that has a lot of money rather than as the family that encourages others in spiritual pursuits.

  This is Watchtowerese for, "don't spend all that money on yourself; give us all that money."

  James 2:26 - "faith without works is dead"

  by leaving_quietly in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i was contemplating this verse this morning... what did james mean by "works"?

  and it hit me like a bolt of lightning.. now, wts would have us believe these "works" are preaching and meetings.

  however, could that be what james was referring to?

  This matter is easily resolved once you understand that the Bible doesn't mean what it actually says, but it means what it doesn't say.

  You see, "Jehovah" wanted a book that would clearly tell us what we need to do to please Him, so "Jehovah" gave us a book that we should not ever do what it actually says we should do. Once you understand that, the Bible is simple to understand.

  Bible: "works" = helping those less privileged, the sick, the widows, the old and the orphans.

  WTS: "works" = buy books and give us the money and then sell those books and give us the money.

  Hope that helps.

  WTS vs. Star Trek

  by Farkel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  star trek claimed to be fantasy and in fact, was fantasy.. wts claims to be the sole truth on earth and in fact, is fantasy.. star trek had spock who solved problems with logic.. wts has a gb who solves problems with bullshit.. star trek had a pompous ass charismatic leader whom everyone loved to watch rant and emote.

  wts had three pompous ass charismatic leaders whom everyone hated to watch rant and emote.. captain kirk was always saving his people from new disasters.. wt leaders are always leading its people into new disasters.. star trek made money by always giving its fans the stuff they wanted.. wts makes money by always charging its fans for stuff neither they nor anyone else else wants.. people had fun when star trek came on.. people would rather have a root canal when meetings come on.. star trek was all about making the cosmos a better place for all.. wts is all about making the cosmos a better place for a few and killing everyone else.. people love to go to star trek conventions.. people would rather be in an earthquake than go to wts conventions.. star trek had a transporter room.. people in meetings wish they also had a transporter room.. star trek had lots of insane villains.. wts had judge rutherford and fred franz.

  same thing.. star trek also had lots of good guys.. good guys are banished from the wts.. star trek had the klingons who spoke a bizarre language.. wts had fred franz who spoke an even more bizarre language.. star trek had all sorts of devices which could cure most any medical problems, but of course, they were science fiction.. wts had the electronic radio biola which it sold and said could cure most any medical problem, but of course, that was science fiction.. star trek had floppy disks, computers you could talk to and flat screen monitors all of which were about 50 years ahead-of-their time.. wts had vaccines which were called "filthy animal pus", humans hearts which were the seat of all emotions, organ transplants which were cannibalistic, human personalities which were also transferred with blood transfusions and black people turning white by reading their literature, all of which were 100 years behihd-their-time.. if you missed a few star trek episodes in a row, no one came by to harrass you.. if you miss a few meetings in a row, you are in deep shit.. star trek tv shows and movies are still played all the time, even after 47 years.. wts dramas never even play a second time.

  Captain Kirk had the worst singing voice in the Galaxy, but he and everyone else didn't take it seriously.
  The WTS has the worst music in the Galaxy and they think it is very serious.

  Kirk had Corbomite to blow up his ship, but it was a fake ruse.
  The WTS has false doctrine to blow up its ship, but it isn't a fake ruse.

  The enterprise had empaths who could sense and feel your pain and suffering.
  The WTS has no such thing and doesn't even know what it is.
