I like the quieter feel - the lack of extremely angry bickering... people seem nicer here now. I guess lots have left already, or are still on summer holidays. It will be a real shock when they get back, I'm sure. It has meant a lot to a lot of people, but WTF, it's just an internet chatroom more or less. People have to get used to that idea.

Perhaps some others have some ideas on how this will end, but I say it will be a very busy place in the next 2.5 months.

Not only is this the end of JWD for me, it's the end of internet posting for me. It's great - time to move on. I would only want to communicate with people in real life from now on.

Who do you think the King of The North is?

by Number1Anarchist in

let me know thru your studies who do you think the king of the north is?.

russia or china i'm guessing but that would be a logical choice.. this is my opinion but i think with the united states getting involved in territories that are under control of russia and china is reaching a boiling point and eventually somone is gonna say i have had it i'm not taking this anymore.. i read this also that in a chinese proverb they have a sayin "kill the chicken to frighten the monkey" the chinese beleive the attack on iraq was the chicken and they are the monkey.. now i'm hearing they are or may blockade iran.

if this happens it could be the final straw but maybe not but i think very soon we will see the knig of the north rise up in defiance to the united states.. let me know what you think please!.

And it just keeps going on, and on, and on, and on....

Why do people think it even applies to today? You would have hit the lottery just living in the 'last days'.

Dear god,
Hope you got the letter,
And I pray you can make it better down here.
I dont mean a big reduction in the price of beer,
But all the people that you made in your image,
See them starving on their feet,
cause they dont get enough to eat

From god,
I cant believe in you.

Dear god,
Sorry to disturb you,
But I feel that I should be heard loud and clear.
We all need a big reduction in amount of tears,
And all the people that you made in your image,
See them fighting in the street,
cause they cant make opinions meet,
About god,
I cant believe in you.

Did you make disease, and the diamond blue?
Did you make mankind after we made you?
And the devil too!

Dear god,
Dont know if you noticed,
But your name is on a lot of quotes in this book.
Us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look,
And all the people that you made in your image,
Still believing that junk is true.
Well I know it aint and so do you,
Dear god,
I cant believe in,
I dont believe in,

I wont believe in heaven and hell.
No saints, no sinners,
No devil as well.
No pearly gates, no thorny crown.
Youre always letting us humans down.
The wars you bring, the babes you drown.
Those lost at sea and never found,
And its the same the whole world round.
The hurt I see helps to compound,
That the father, son and holy ghost,
Is just somebodys unholy hoax,
And if youre up there youll perceive,
That my hearts here upon my sleeve.
If theres one thing I dont believe in...

Its you,
Dear god.

Why we can confidently say JW's are NOT fulfilling John 13:35

by yadda yadda 2 in

"this is how everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.

" - john 13:35 (niv).

a genuine christian would never totally shun a disfellowshipped family member or life-long friend who walked past them.

shamus100

Let's just leave disfellowshipping out of the picture for one moment.

Now look into a 'normal' congregation of 'Jehovahs Witnesses'.

They are the most divisive, back-stabbing bunch of clickey self-righteous idiots on the planet, IMO. I have been to other churches for various reasons over the years, and they were refreshing compared to the witnesses. They don't talk about 'this guy is bad assosiation because...', etc., etc., etc. I got so tired of that nonsense... low self-esteem to the extreme!

They have no love for themselves; that is an absolute truth.

Now carry on with disfellowshipping, the ultimate mark showing they are not the true religion.

"by their fruits"....wouldn't this mean their teachings as well???

by oompa in

i urge any lurkers, or newbies, or doubter here to read...and study the proclaimers book....and read many old articles in the watchtower.

anybody who can explian to me how we could be sooooo wrong about soooo many things...........you have a willing ear here.

gods holy spirit would not allow for teaching falsehoods....period!

You have all forgotten that this light just keeps getting brighter and brighter and brighter... er... um... wait, brighter! Yet brighter... yet brighter...

It's the ultimate cult theology. People in the truth just don't have critical thinking abilities. They don't take the words of Jesus to heart. They're needs are more than the needs of the god of the bible. They're afraid of taking the pill. They're weak. You'll never get through to them unless they want you to. It's like wading through quick-sand.

Door-to-Door Work - Most Inneffective Work of the 21st Century

by Black Man in

jw
friends

knockin' on doors when nobody's home, processing ten of thousands of hours that u know are fake, refusing to embrace modern-technology to further the work just adds up to the most ineffective public relations campaign of the 21st century---yep, you guessed it the house-to-house work.........

shamus100

Fantastic observations too.

This is the cornerstone of the dub religion... they say that they cover the territory once a year... BULLSHIT. I've never been contacted at my home once. BULLSHIT. And I only faded...

Jehovah help me...
