by OneStepOut93 in

jw
friends

regarding worldly people, shows or toys?

etc...what quotes annoyed you the most?.

for me it was "well, you have to remember, they're worldly"... "don't trust anyone who isn't in the truth" "they may be nice but they are not friends of jehovah"... just a few to name.

They Are Just Like The Amish (But with Electricity)

by OnTheWayOut in

i was describing jehovah's witnesses to a family member who had no idea whatsoever about them.

i may be straightforward and describe things in terms i have learned since reading about cults, but i was not over the top in any way.

i was simply stating the facts in a way that did not try to put any positive spin on anything.. my family member said, "so they are basically the amish but with televisions and electricity.

There is a difference the amish allow a period for their young people to try the outside world with no reprucusions. Only after that are they allowed to get baptized

NOAHS BIBLICAL FLOOD ACTUALLY HAPPENED, SAYS FAMED ARCHEOLOGIST WHO FOUND THE TITANIC

"the story of noah's ark and its associated flood continues to be retold to children and studied by theologians, alike.

while some dismiss it as a mere fable, others believe wholeheartedly that the event literally unfolded, with a massive down-pouring of water ravaging the earth at god's command.

I know Bob Ballard personally. I lived on capecod right up the street from his house in fact. I can guarentee you he does not support the theory of a world wide flood. He may be trying to find evidence of a localized flood that all the flood stories are based on. But trust me he is too much the scientist to believe in the literal flood story
