  by undercover in

  minimus started a thread asking people to prove that jws don't have the truth.... but, instead of proving they don't, i'd like to see someone prove that the witnesses do have the truth.. this is your thread jw apologists....convince me why you have the truth.. to all you apostates and nay-sayers, please allow the apologists to have their say without harrassing them.

  1 John 5:7 (New International Version)

  7 For there are three that testify: 8 the [a] Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement.

  This just shows me why I can't understand almost all the bible. How can water and blood testify, or agree with anything???

  The bible says the heavens and earth will be destroyed and new ones made. What does that mean? Why doesn't he just say he is going to fix the mess he created originally and do it diferently this time.

  The bible is so impossible to understand, look at Revelation. Why doesn't God just communicate in an understandable way so there wouldn't be so many different religions using the Bible as it's doctrine?

  after being gone from the jw's for many years now , and having done extensive research on the history of god and the belief in him , i can't seem to find any logical way to have a belief in an invisble being up there ruling over us.

  how many here still believe?

  how many don't?.

  I can't decided what I really believe. I can't understand God. The earth is a beautiful place but is filled with bad things. Who made disease, natural disasters, all the parasites, cancer, viruses, and never explains anything to us except by some religious nuts. Why has he waited so many thousands of years to do anything? Most religious zealots say we will be tormented forever in a fire of hell if we don't believe in Jesus. Is God really that vindictive, especially since we have no evidence he exsist?

  I'm still looking for answers which don't seem to exist.

  I've flushed my mind so well from all the JW stuff that I can't remember much about it anymore, well to be honest, I can't remember much of anything anymore. Y'all did describe it perfectly though.

  How Does God Hear All Prayers???

  by Decided in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when there are about 50 million prayers being given at any one time, how does god listen to them all?

  does he know all of us by name or by a soul or something?

  does he have a movie of our lives to judge us at our death?

  I have a hard time trying to understand a God and how he operates.

  A question for guys

  by keyser soze in

  when using a public restroom, how do you feel when a complete stranger pulls into the urinal right next to you and starts up a conversation with you?

  do you feel indifferent, slightly uncomfortable, or violated?.

  or are you one of the weirdos who does this?.

  He lived in Eden, NC, the town I live in. His grand dad worked on my car back in 1956. His dad had a bible study I think but I don't remember if he ever was a JW or not.

  2. friends

  guys i really got some trouble here in greece with some jw's who claim that m.j was never a jw.

  they even claim that reporters and media are trying to create negative inviroment against jw's by saying that michael was a jw.. so you guys in u.s.a can you give me some links, or copies of u.s newspapers and media that show exactly the opposite..... thanks guys for your help.

  this was just too funny and i have to share with you all.. i was browsing a website called abovetopsecret and there are about 16 pages of different topics about jehovah's witnesses.

  some very interesting stuff, and mind you, i think it's mostly "worldies".. .

  anyway, i stumbled across a comment where a poster said that they think jws get paid to go door to door.. .

  Back in the late 50s, if you were a pioneer, you could get the literature for less than you sold it. Sometimes you could make a dollar a day if you were lucky and didn't count the gas you used. I also had a man who was married to a jw who did my taxes and deducted my millage off my taxes. My mother and aunt were special pioneers and got paid a small amount from the WT society each month.
