  Field Service, Anyone?

  the human brain is a non-stop chattering machine.

  it is constantly evaluating, making decisions and judgments.

  there is not a human being alive that isn't an abject hypocrite nearly every day.

  loved it Farkel,

  I watch that circus go on in my neighborhood, the car drives up, out they pop and go to their sales pitch. I close my blinds, turn down my tv and stay out of sight. Man, will they ever leave? Finally after 5 min. they leave. I still have to keep my blinds closed till they leave the neighborhood in case they back track. This should be against the law! I live in a small town, so I hate to be rude to these people. It's easier to avoid them.

  my daughter was here last night, she asked if i knew about john travoltas son dying.

  i said yes, her reply was... scientology wouldn't let him take medicine and thats what killed him.

  i said, well actually, the news said he was taking meds but they no longer were working for him.

  I really do need to order Steve Hassens book. I still have to be careful with my daughter, I try to space things out so she doesn't catch on to what I'm trying to do. I'm glad she brought the Scientology thing up instead of me.

  Thanks for the encouragement everyone

  Nathan, I agree with you, I tried to show my daughter that view when it was in the news about those FDLS in Texas and the women in their prararie dresses. I told her, their just another one of those cults that keep them ignorant to the outside world, are not allowed an eduation. I didn't compare them to the JWs or make any comment about the jws.

  Nathan, thanks for the video, I see the similarities

  I don't think it sunk in, at that time, the jws were not talking about the higher education.

  Steve2, I too see where scientology has some similarities to the JWs, but as Nathan said, all cults are similar

  Back in September her best friend (not jw) lost her son in an accident. My daughter said she thought her friend was so distraught because she didn't have a religious faith. She felt like she could have handled his death better if she had the faith in paradise earth. All I said at that point was... and you know what, this might be the only life we have so you better make the most of it!

  There can't be a JW on this earth that truely feels they fit all the requirements ( inside sins) for paradise earth, too many restrictions on them. They all have to have doubts they'll make it through the big A. So I tried to make her THINK that, if you don't make it, you better start living this life.

  "If Thats All Their Is My Friend, Then Let's Keep Dancing" I love that song

  My response was, well, some people would say the same thing about a Jehovah Whitness and not allowing one to have blood. She said, well, we have alternatives. I said... not in every situation.

  End of conversation... I just hope I gave her a little something to THINK about. scientology looks weird to her and her WT look's weird to people in the same manner.

  Funny, they can see the cult operation in other religions but not their own

  Armageddon and Inward sins

  by AuntBee in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do jws believe that one will be destroyed at armageddon for inward sins, such as lack of love, unforigiveness, doing a 'spiritual' work from wrong motives ('to be seen of men'), lusful thoughts?

  sins of omission, like not caring for the poor, not praying for one's enemies or rulers, not thinking of others more often and more highly than yourself?.

  are some sins higher up on the sinfulness list, in that only some are 'mortal' sins, and with others, you can still get by?.

  How about the commandment, Love Thy Neighbor as Yourself? It does not say, Love Your JW neighbor as yourself. They are breaking a commandment.
