Why would the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob all of a sudden change his mind through the inspiration of Judge Rutherford for men to shave the beard. Is Judge Rutherford greater than Moses, Greater than All The Prophets Who Wore Beards? The Prophets of my Jah in my Bible were Dirty Jew Hippie rock and roll shock jocks who ripped their garments, writhed around in faeces, lady ninja courtesans who slew the enemy in his bedchamber, wise rapper kings who attracted countless concubines, and a dirty hippie God-Man who partied with whores and colonial agents, and then went all Commie Rude Boy on the moneychangers just to stick it to the Pharisees and then made himself the sacrifice to end all sacrifices of the cute little animals. And that doesn't mean I'm an antinomian. the 613 are the commentary, the ten are the guidelines, and the two commandments are JAH'S Royal Law. And Pauls teaching is scripture, but it sure doesn't trump the Torah or the Gospels! MY Savior IS A DIRTY JEW HIPPIE! So what kind of wimpy White Bread Square is your God to make all you empty suits break up families and destroy childhoods because you can't stand having to care for the welfare of the next Generation and realize that your old balls-sagging generation doesn't really matter in the greater scheme of Jah, like rational elders instead of apocalypse junkies? I guess that is more of a group of questions mixed up with an uncivil polemic.

If you had the audience of the GB, what is your #1 question you would ask them?
by Darth Fader The Sequel inthere are a million of them and mine is by no means the most important question to ask them if i only had one shot at it.
but, i have always wondered what kind of bs excuse they would give as an answer to this question: "brother goober bum, given that there are both male and female partakers here on earth who claim to be of the 'anointed' and plan on being of the 144,000 ruling with christ in heaven for eternity........ why are the female 'anointed' treated as submissive, second class citizens and why is their opinion on doctrinal matters, matters of teaching and reproving, anything at all.... why are they not recognized while here on earth even though you claim that jesus has selected them to become angels to rule with him?

To me, education is everything. My kids are being cheated. Church isn't a place to be scared shickless, its a place to read the King James Version so that you're ready to read Shakespeare by the time you're in High School, or a place to learn Greek or Hebrew and how to if that's you're background, or a place to learn music. The lack of a cultural element in the Jehovah's Witnesses is what shocks me. The Jehovah's Witnesses is a place to learn sales techniques. I was a telemarketer once upon a time and I hate salesmen!!!!!

I wish I were more than just a stepdad so I could protect them from being indoctrinated. Their attitude towards higher education is what bothers me the most.

Idiotic WT reasoning for birthdays
by Batman89 inadditionally, birthday celebrations tend to give excessive importance to an individual, no doubt one reason why early christians shunned them.
(ecclesiastes 7:1) so you will find that jehovahs witnesses do not share in birthday festivities (the parties, singing, gift giving, and so forth).
school and jehovah's witnesses p.18.

The Bible has nothing good to say about clean-shavenness just as it has nothing good to say about birthdays, therefore I judged the JWs to be practicing the sin of transvestism because they don't grow beards. If your overseer doesn't have a beard his name must be Mitch.

"You should grow a beard if you're a man of God (slam)!!!"
by SonoftheTrinity inif jehovah's witnesses are taught the "truth" that people are afraid of men with beards, wouldn't sending them the vibe that clean shaven men are creepy, as indeed they are in some localities on some faces be the best favor you could do them.
imagine if every trinitarian christian told them the same thing instead of engaging in a conversation with them.
in the part of california where i live them telling me that beards are threatening to some people is like those hipsters who attend the "no pants subway ride" on the subway in the middle of winter and then say that it just felt too warm today to be wearing pants.

Disposable Hero of Hypocrisy, I just can't sit through a meeting of bald-faced men giving talks. I truly believe that for most grown men to be clean-shaven is to miss the mark in terms of God's commandment against transvestism. I'll wear a dress before I shave off my beard. That's great that its different in Europe. I suspect that one of my boys has a thing for blondes, maybe he should go to Europe after High School. I would say 99% of my contempt for Jehovah's witnesses is my desire for my two stepsons to grow up to be bearded college graduates. The way I was brought up a man is not a man until he goes to college and grows a beard. They will always be child slaves to the Witchtower as long as their mother force-feeds them the Witchtower's spiritual slop.

Why do Christian nations think they can assimilate Muslims into their communities , does Islam attempt to assimilate Christians in their communities ?
by smiddy inislam /muslims today are what christianity was centuries ago , the two beleif systems are like oil and water , not to be mixed .
christians are not tolerated spreading their infectious disease amongst muslims, in islamic countrys , and harsh penalties apply for them doing so in muslim countries , including the death penalty.
stonings , whippings etc.. on the other hand christian nations are very tolerant of muslim extremists who incite hatred and violence on their own territory , and they get a slap on the wrist and say dont do it again .

The problem isn't all Muslims, its with the Salafi/Wahhabi and the extreme Twelvers in power in Iran. Imagine if the most intolerant forms of Protestantism and Catholicism came to power in Rome and Canterbury. There are anti-extremist Muslims like the Sufis too. In Places like Lebanon and Ethiopia there is a clear Christian/Sunni-Sufi alliance headed by the Ahbash against the Salafis. When you look at some countries in Africa and the former Soviet Union a pattern of Christianization can be seen in spite of thousand dollar Saudi-funded bonuses for conversion to Islam

Don't you remember the Nazirites of the Bible who grow long hair? Or how Ezekiel Would roll in dung? Or how Job tore apart his clothes? Or the Holy Fools of Holy Orthodoxy? God likes deviant if it proves a point. The best clique a daughter could belong to in some communities is a straight-edge punk rocker (no drugs, no fornication, no meat, no alcohol to interfere with doing it yourself and thinking for yourself) who dress ridiculously to make a statement. I feel sorry for people who have been raised to equate peculiarity with wickedness. You have to look at the soul that chose those clothes and why are those clothes not ridiculous to that person. Personally I love the diversity of my great nation, from Cowboys to Homeboys to Punk Rockers to Hippies. Its a shame that Watchtowerdumb blinds souls to such radiance.

Well I have a beard, and fortunately my JW wife happens to be from a culture where beards are sacred so she doesn't nag me about it. I have a deformedly weak chin so I really would like a world where the beards are the squares and the clean-shaven are the misfits. Going to District Assemblies where there isn't a single beard to be seen truly creep me out. I finally reached the kids with a music video by the Beards "If your Dad doesn't have a beard you've got 2 moms" which I hope they remember to serenade whosoever god forbid may take my place.
