Renewable Energy Production Surpasses Nuclear

by darthfader in

cool.... renewable energy production has surpassed nuclear energy production in the u.s. according to the latest issue of monthly energy review published by the energy information administration.

production of alternative energy is also beginning to close in on domestic oil production.. http://domesticfuel.com/2011/07/05/renewable-energy-production-surpasses-nuclear/.

Renewable....as in:

you have room for a windmill at your house without having to cut down trees for miles to keep a breeze going?

you will pedal a bike to turn on a light which you can't use because you have to keep peddling to keep it lit?

Are religions preparing and guiding their people toward transhumanism/

by cameo-d in

has wt ever actually made the claim that when jesus (supposedly) returned in 1914 that he returned in an invisible "spirit" form...or is this just the general interpretation from the jws?.

is it possible that the website "let us reason" is a clandestine wt/jw site designed to re-invent this religion?

much of what is written seems to lean toward preparing people for transhumanism...you know, having your brain downloaded into a mechanical type permanent body.

Is it possible that the website "let us reason" is a clandestine WT/JW site designed to re-invent this religion? Much of what is written seems to lean toward preparing people for transhumanism...you know, having your brain downloaded into a mechanical type permanent body. The twist of this "new light" in interpreting the scriptures on the page linked below was rather surprising to me. Are the religions now intending to guide people toward becoming thinking, controllable,.... machinery?

Why would this site take the idea of the "reasoning book"? Doesn't it seem that WT would claim such a domain name? And why the focus of re-educating JW's with this new light which appears to be something "more in depth" but actually looks like another flip flop and manipulation to an outsider?

” In this epistle John uses the present tense in Greek which focuses specifically on the future coming of the Lord. People who deny that Jesus rose in the flesh or is not coming back in the flesh. By saying he rose or is coming back as a Spirit or in some other form other than his body, are of the spirit of anti-Christ.

The Jehovah's Witnesses make the same mistake the disciples did even with the Bible in their hands to correct them. Jesus' grave was empty with only the linens left. There are no Scriptures used to validate a spirit resurrection rather than a bodily one. Nowhere does Jesus say I'm spirit instead he makes it clear he is flesh and bone.

The April 15th (current) Watchtower. Could it be more blasphemous?

by Slidin Fast in

startfragment.

this article:- do you discern the evidence of gods guidance?, equates the faithful and discreet slave with moses.

moses, according to the scriptures spoke directly with god and was gods spokesman to the israelites.

20 And sometimes the cloud would continue a few days over the tabernacle. At the order of Jehovah they would remain encamped, and at the order of Jehovah they would pull away . 21

It was my understanding that man estranged himself from his creator when he chose to give his allegience to the Adversary in the garden of Eden. It makes no sense that the Creator would give man freewill and then proceed to dominate his actions. Why would man's Creator involve himself in earthly wars like with Moses and his band of rebellious Hebrews? Does the Creator use people like pawns for his own entertainment. I don't think this Jehovah is the Creator.

Kingdom of God on Earth

by cameo-d in

so let me get this straight....jesus is coming back earth to set up the kingdom of god here, right?.

according to the scriptures, the last time he was here, he was already offered all the kingdoms of the world and he didn't take the offer.

so what changed his mind?.

truthseeker1969: "The Kingdom of God will be in heaven and the benefits of the Kingdom will be felt on earth."

Do you ever get the idea that this New Order of Things will still be run by an "invisibile deity" while councils of men make the rules claiming "Divine Right by Appointment"?

Something along the lines of a world wide Watchtower Society?

A religio-political power structure under the cloak of "christianity"?

Jesus said that flesh and blood cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

If this is true, then does it not stand to reason that the "Paradise earth" aka "Kingdom of God on earth" is some kind of well planned political power grab?

Enslaved to the literature....comment from new video.

by maninthemiddle in

if you haven't already seen the new video go check it out.

see the end of the thread for two playable videos.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/211257/2/faith-in-action-part-2-new-d-v-d. .

the video talks about those who were arrested for preaching (witness style).

maninthemiddle: "This video just re-enforces how enslaved they are to the literature.
My question is, why is this something to be proud of?"

Because they have to keep up a pretense of "being persecuted". That's a big part of the JW mantra. They never accept that they could be in the wrong. The org teaches them to be self-righteous and any disagreement of their mind controlled behavior is paraded as "persecuted". Because, after all, Jesus said you would be persecuted for doing the right thing. It is a gross misapplication of scripture.
