Hey, thanks for the advice, pal. But I think I'd rather pretend to be a Witless for a little while longer than be homeless for who knows how long. See you around.

Billy; you forgot one crucial line of reasoning. I'll try to lay it out in Gubberning Body duckspeak language.

While it is important to note that shaving originated from pagan customs, it is more important to note the Bible's viewpoint. Leviticus 19:27 says that we MUST NOT shave our beards. True chris-chumps today are free from the mosaic law. However, this scripture clearly shows that Joe Hobo views beards as essential. Though the mosiac law does not exactly apply to us, the spirit, or principle, of the law still does. Therefore, it is clear that any true chris-chump who wished to have a close relationship with his heavenly creator would avoid shaving his beard.

Look like something they might print?

Here's screenshots of the article, btw:

JW policy on Girl Guides and Scouts?

by HB in

i have come to this forum on the recommendation of an ex jehovah's witness who has been very helpful.

although he has given me some useful information, he suggested i post my question on here too to see what others have to say.

being new, i am not sure if i have chosen the right topic heading but if not forgive me!.

Sadly, what happened was that a very large number of people were entrapped in the cult without ever being exposed to a single alternative viewpoint.

that the first real discovery of a dinosaur was in 1822?.

for some time now i have been of the opinion that those who believe in the bible are extremely near sighted, and are not looking at the big picture.

DoomVoyager

Watchtower no longer teaches that each creative day was 7000 years. They say they "could have been billions of years".

However, they still claim that the first human being was created around 4000 B.C. Anyone who claims that has instantly proven that at no point does reality ever interfere with their worldview.

hunters using a "stealt cam" primarily for bears catch 9 frames of something else on the camera --- bigfoot?.

Excellent point, Satanas. I never thought of how there is more evidence for Bigfoot than there is for god. I'm going to have to use that argument.

I use a very effective advertisement blocker for Firefox. It slays all ads.

...Unfortunately, we have to use IE at work. I'll have to be careful.

Do U Look Down On People Who Remain As JWs ..1's u think should no better?

by minimus in

do you find yourself looking down on people who you think should know better but still hang on to the religion?

DoomVoyager

"Looking down on" doesn't even begin to describe the hatred I feel for those treacherous subhuman bastards that call themselves the Gubberning Body.

But the R&F and even some elders I really feel sorry for. They're victims of a very clever and very destructive cult. I hope they will all learn the truth about it sooner rather than later. So no, I don't look down on the average dub.
