  Why do JWs think God would kill these people?

  by MrMonroe in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this article from the guardian is one of the most harrowing pieces of journalism i have read in a long, long time.

  north koreans raised like rats in a cage, forced to work seven days a week, scavenge for food in cow manure, inform on family members to gain a tiny increase in their rations, tortured, starved, degraded .... which raises two big questions.. 1. why do jehovah's witnesses believe that these people would die at armageddon because they have not joined them in "god's organization"?

  how can jehovah's witnesses think god would be so legalistic, so small-minded, that he would deprive those people of life in a peaceful paradise ... just because no brother in a shirt and tie has ever knocked on the door of their barracks and offered them a chance for a bible study?

  Love it. I've not seen the last episode of season 2 yet. I started watching half way through season 1, my husband was hooked from the beginning.

  as referred to in this thread, ray franz's book crisis of conscience, arguably the most important book for ex jws to read - has been out of print for months but is available from amazon at $100+.. internet explorer, probably the most commonly used internet browser - is not compatible with this website.. most young jws probably access the internet via a smartphone but good luck trying to post to this website on one.. .

  That's why I seriously object to giving away free copies of his book in digital form. Aside from a lawsuit, you are cheating an old man's widow from income. PLEASE don't do it! Keep an eye on Amazon.

  Amazon will print your book for you, sell it, and ship it with almost no intervention from you. I imagine that is what will happen when they run out of books. Cynthia still has lots from what I gather. So probably soon it will be back on Amazon for $29 or something, I don't know. $8 is not that much to pay for a book in digital form. You can find a reader free online... Adobe Reader should work.

  Thanks for giving some of that background Randy. I wholeheartedly agree with the above; I personally bought both PDFs and hard copies of Ray's books, there are adantages to both. I am glad that although you and Ray may not have seen eye to eye on religious beliefs, you recognise the importance of Ray's book being available. I don't want to see Cynthia to be done out of income.

  I guess my OP was a little provocative; it wasn't intended to be a criticism of Simon or whoever is managing Ray's affairs. I am glad it has provoked some discussion though.

  Update: Due to the recent passing of Commentary Press founder Raymond Franz, the Commentary Press eStore is temporarily suspending shipments of hardbound and softbound publications as we go through a restructuring.
  In the meantime, downloadable PDF versions of select titles remain available for purchase through the eStore. Hardbound and softbound editions of many Commentary Press titles may continue to be purchased from a retailer such as Amazon.com
