Uh-Oh. Look out. Latest news/propaganda......these vril ships are earth origin and are looking to take humans for joy rides.
She says they are hostile ships and they will start picking up people in mid Oct.
Would like to hear what you all think of this.
from page 22 (attitudes about homosexuality may differ from one generation to another or from one land to another.
but christians aren't "carried hither and thither by every wind of teaching.
" (ephesians 4:14) instead, they adhere to the bible's view.
I happen to agree with them about holidays. Before I even knew what WT teachings were I did not like holidays and thought it is wrong to tell kids stuff like santa and easter bunny. It destroys the child's trust in those who he should be able to turn to for honesty. Lies are destructive no matter what form they come in.
As JWs you were told the truth about santa from the start. But for those who weren't.....it is a shock when you find out it's not true. You become disillusioned about your parents and will always question their honesty thereafter. And to add insult to injury....you are forced to keep your mouth shut, compromising your own honesty, in order to continue playing the deception for the younger ones. Often threatened with beatings or other punishment if you do not cooperate.
This "harmless fun" is one of the earliest divisions between children and parents.
Here is a story from the "outside".

only me: There's definitely something going on.
I read Outlaw's topic last night before I went to bed and then woke up to the Coast to Coast show on the radio. Just guess what they were talking about?

Thanks for the info.
Yes, there is something going on. And I imagine it has been going on for quite a while. These "aliens" have already been communicating with us. They read our discussion boards and watch how we have been interacting with others. They know very well all that is going on here.
And what better way to communicate with us than under the cover of an anonymous board? You can't see them, but you read their words.
Perhaps they have always dealt with humans under the cloak of invisibility.
So people do not believe in an invisible creator that they cannot see? Do you not believe cameo-d is real? And yet you cannot see me, you cannot hear my voice, no one here personally knows me. How do you know that I myself am not an alien life communicating with you?
They are here. And they have been communicating with us through internet...the cloak of invisibility.
supposedly the first "christian" movement was started by james the just, brother of jesus (though some historians believe this james to be a cousin and not his brother).
what i find intriging is this verse from the gospel of thomas in reference to james:.
"the disciples said to jesus, "we are aware that you will depart from us.
Leolaia: So we read in logion 79 of the Gospel of Thomas: "Blessed are the wombs that has not conceived and the breasts that have not given milk".
I think this is taken out of context because the preceding verses are needed in order to understand where this idea is coming from.
Also, I do appreciate your taking the time and contributing the views and sources, however, I think the authors of these citations were misdirected.
The sense I get from GOT is that those who are singular and autonomous are not weighted down by cares of the world and having the responsibilities and distractions of having to attend to others and are therefore free to pursue spiritual quests and introspection.
Leolaia: The Gospel of the Egyptians has Jesus declare that he came to "undo the works of the female", for "as long as you women bear children death will have power" (cited by Clement of Alexandria).
This, to me, is not even logical. Death is a condition of a temporary body regardless of whether procreation continues or not. Maybe we should look at what motives Clement of Alexandria would have had for making such a statement and attributing it to the hero. Could it be that Clement was promoting his own agenda deceitfully using the voice of the hero as his vehicle?
How many others have instituted an agenda by rewriting translations and saying "well, Jesus said so"!
why has it been passed down to us that the word 'armageddon' refers to meggido?
who came up with that and stamped and approved it as a translation?
i am not sure if jws buy into that same interpretation...so maybe you all can fill me in.. .
As far as the sophisticated "magi" of our day---think HAARP, BlueBeam.....and what the heck was the Norway Spiral all about?
Are sky shows and natural disasters being orchestrated? Is this why religions, like Watchtower and others, have promoted disaster and destructions being a physical, environmental Armageddon?
Is this how one way that evil men intend to depopulate the earth while deceiving the gullable that it is Jah killing off the pagans? It would seem to be so when you hear people like Pat Robertson saying so. And we know those evangelists have a lot of followers. Many, many of politicians (think DOJ) graduated from Pat Robertson's Law School. What is the rhyme and reason behind that? How "credible" would you expect such a school to be? How much faith would you have in a system where our judicial officials are either secret society or Robertson groupies?

So, DU, do you think it is secret military operations? Why would they not unveil the technology if they have it? What would they be using this for that they would need to keep it secret?

Could it be a planned orchestration by governments to distract the general public from something more serious that is going on?
Could this be some illusion/propaganda by religionists to attempt to create a "rapture story"?
good evening jwn!!...
as most of you know i live in a forest,in the mountains..at night there is very little light pollution... so the sky is one big theatre screen... i see shooting stars,northern lights,satellites,planes on a destination..it`s all very beautiful... tonight was different... .
tonight there was something in the sky that defied anything i`ve ever seen... it had multiple aircraft lights but not like regular airplane lights..it wasn`t a helicopter... it could go straight up or down... move in one direction then head in another..it could do all kinds of weird stuff... sometimes it just hovered..then start doing all these weird maneuvers... regular aircraft is going somewhere,it`s headed in a direction..not this thing... i watched a regular airplane pass it... .
nevermind. Looks like an event that happened 4 th July but was not updated to sightings until yesterday.
the governing body has decided to launch a pilot program of shepherding district overseers and their wives.
why is this needed?
everyone has an arrangement for personal shepherding except district overseers and their wives.
Booby: From this side the gb are all creepy enough to qualify. From the other side - oops, gotta croak first.
I wonder if Jacarass is dictating these moves from the other side?
Booby, there is a ouji board ad on your post! Clever!
