  Witnesses "can't take the heat"

  by Olin Moyles Ghost in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  have you ever heard a witness say something like "why do apostates have to keep talking about the wts/jw faith?

  why don't they just go on with their lives?

  if they've found something better, why don't they just focus on that instead of us?

  Have you ever heard a Witness say something like "why do apostates have to keep talking about the WTS/JW faith? Why don't they just go on with their lives? If they've found something better, why don't they just focus on that instead of us?" I've heard such statements and I've seen such statements written by purported JWs on this and other websites.

  I'm guilty of using this logic myself in one of my earlier threads. At the time I was under the influence of having just attended a 3-day convention. I understand now how ridiculous that argument is. I still however don't understand people who are an atheist but constantly bash the Bible.

  so how is it that the WTS say that porneia includes adultery??

  Porneia does not include adultery, but according to the scriptures porneia and adultery are equally bad.

  "You may not know the answer to this, but what was the term used here for adultery? Just curious."

  Matthew 19:9 I say to YOU that whoever divorces his wife, except on the ground of fornication(porneia), and marries another commits adultery(moichao).”

  "Moichao" always mean "adultery" and is unrelated to the word "porneia"(unclean/unnatural sex acts).

  (she does not know that I am laughing watching her thru the windows in the computer room)

  The possibilities are endless when you take that sentence out of context.

  DVD "JW's Faith In Action, part 1 Out of Darkness" Omits! Omits! Omits!

  by Wasanelder Once in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've been watching the new dvd and it is a bull fest about russell.

  i haven't even gotten half way and they already excluded one very important bit of information.

  you'll recall that russell "lost" his faith and "turning away from church creeds and searching for truth, russell examined some leading oriental religions, only to find these unsatisfying".

  Porneia doesn't mean pre-marital sex, it means unclean or unatural sex acts such as beastiality, orgies, anal, incest, pedophilia, etc. If porneia met pre-marital sex than the following verse wouldn't make sense.

  Matthew 19:9 I say to YOU that whoever divorces his wife, except on the ground of fornication(porneia), and marries another commits adultery.”

  Obviously a person can't have pre-marital sex if they're already married and adultery is listed as seperate from fornication.

  Yes, my English is very bad. I am from the Eastern Europe.

  In the future when/if your ability to read English improves I'll show you that document again and than you can apologize to the people you called liars.

  BANE Does Not Represent Us Vegans

  by Blue Grass in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as a vegan i'm embarrassed to have anything in common with jwn's newest asshole bane.

  us vegans are typically passive and very hippie like and do not start fights for no reason.

  i would like to reach out to my fellow vegan and ask him what is he doing here.

  I appreciate your input avishal, I should point out that I was being sarcastic in my opening post. Obviously I'm not ashame to be a Vegan, male, human, heterosexual, etc. because BANE is one also. I was using sarcasm to point out I don't want anything in common with someone who behaves like such a jackass moron for no reason.

  Titus I would love to know what's so funny. The watchtower admitted they were part of the UN. Is your English so bad that you can't comprehend that?
