  One cute canadian sister

  i like her videos about self-injury and other mental and physical problems, that could happened to young people.... she say that she is an active jw and regularly visit the meetings and go to service.. http://www.youtube.com/user/idranktheseawater.

  but... what can you say about her wearing and hair style?.

  it's cool, but it's "non-spiritual" style, not for "true" jw, isn't it ?!

  Too bad she's involved with the JWS, this will really screw her up.

  Perhaps when she gets older and intellectually matures she might leave that destructive damaging cult.

  Noah's flood is one of the many stories told by the ancient Hebrews of their god (YHWH) to create power and relevance to their god.

  Other ancient civilizations told great stories of their select god or gods as well.

  The great day of Armageddon is another example of these kinds of stories.

  Animal biology and psychics proves this event could not have possibly happened.

  The return of Christ and of him taking his position in heaven along with the End Times/Armageddon has been the most fictitious and corrupt doctrine the

  WTS. has ever come up with. Its also been the most valuably important self marketing vehicle for this publishing house, that has attracted the

  most attention from the public. The WTS. has always played with people's emotional insecurities and fears to create its own power and control.

  Because of this, if the WTS is still around 100 years from now, the organization will still probably be saying the End is Near.

  "Children have imaginary friends; adults have gods."

  "Even if a God as described in the Bible does exist, he is not fit for worship due to his low moral standards." — Tim Maroney.

  "Find God ? Why, is God missing ?"

  "Gods are immortal but not eternal." — Ancient greek saying.

  "The great god Ra, whose shrine once covered acres, is filler now for crossword puzzle makers." — Keith Preston.

  "Those are the longest leaps of logic I've seen since 'I don't know where the universe came from' —> 'God must have done it'. Impressive."

  "On the sixth day God created man. On the seventh day, man returned the favor."

  "What can you say about a society that says God is dead and Elvis is alive ?"

  "It's hard to accept 'we don't fully know yet', but it's a much better answer than 'god'."

  "Once you write down 'god' as an answer for something, you stop looking at the problem, or worse, it becomes taboo to look at the problem."

  "If God created us in his own image, we have more than reciprocated."

  "It says he made us all to be just like him. So if we're dumb, then god is dumb, and maybe even a little ugly on the side." — Frank Zappa.

  "I think that God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability."

  "God is a drunken college freshman from some alien race and we're his science fair project. We got third place." — Ben.

  "According to the bible, God is a tantrum-throwing, vindictive, misogynistic, apparently insecure all-powerful entity." — JoNa.

  "Yahweh is like the cheerleaders in high school... petty, vindictive, cliquish, and vain."

  Very sad story to be sure, the suicide of the brother of the woman accused is not surprising though being this religion (JWS) has caused many.

  This leaves open the question did the circumstances involving her brother help in instigating the murdering of her own children ?

  Man has always sought power, control, elevated personal positional status and perhaps wealth within their social

  group, embellished fear and ignorance of the super natural (Spiritualism) availed this power and control toward them.

  Of virtue of this The JWS have always been duped to be subservient sales Representatives for the WTS.

  publishing house and to support the power structure placed within this organization.

  The JWS have been mentally indoctrinated to think they are serving the want and direction of god, when in reality they

  are serving the wants and desires of men who've been running the WTS. Corporation.

  Religion really is a game of power it all depends upon who wants to be a participant in the game or not.

  How Does One Get Into The GB?

  You must show a bit ignorance in regards knowledge and education subsided in arrogance

  Have little intellectual honesty within your character.

  Can give a big pretentious righteous smile when appropriate.

  Must be able to be deceivingly corrupt in promoting the workings of the WTS. in a top executive position .

  Must be able to converse and show comprehension with the WTS. lawyers.

  Must love being an egotist as well a power loving individual, with little compassion for humanity in general.

  If you believe you have some or all of these qualities, please apply for the position at Bethel Headquarters.

  " how do jehovah's witnesses arrive at their explanation of the bible ?.

  " a key factor is that the witnesses really believe that the bible is god's word and that what it contains is there for our instruction.

  The JWS religion has just as many BS doctrines supporting itself as other religions do, but try telling that to a JWS.

  The biggest piece of BS the WTS. ever came up with is Christ's return and the supposed End Times/Great Tribulation/Armageddon doctrine.

  But it was the most single doctrine that created the most sales for their literature as well lure the most of its devoted adherents.

  Pursuing true intellectual honesty is a complement to ones own personal integrity.
