the following are questions raised by coffee_black that deserve a response:.
opening note: often times we here how rome cherry-picked the bible to suit their doctrine, yet many people, mostly non-catholics demand that only the bible sola scriptura be used as the canon of the faith.
there is a serious inconsistency in such a demand that both worships the bible on one hand and then condemns the church which compiled that very same book on the other hand; the very same church, and the only church which formally declared the bible is inspired 800 years after jesus christ!.
what an utterly disgusting OP.
sorry to offend, but there is nothing redeeming at all about the religion you represent.
everchanging goalposts at the whim of a select few, population control, oppresive non-natural restrictions.
yeah, just another cult, man.
q: how does tennis star serena williams justify wearing such sexy clothes when she's a jehovah's witness?
- ron ryden, riverview, fla.. a: the winner of 10 grand slam singles titles dresses conservatively when attending kingdom hall services, but there's no religious dress code preventing her from wearing revealing clothes on or off the court.. .
i wonder who wrote the answer to that question because that is not how i remember the jw "dress code.
lol this board LOVES the williams twins haha
anything to grasp i suppose
man....my older sis came over to help me out with an apron i'm trying to sew.
i told her i was gonna set her up a facebook account and she freaked out on me!
almost like an anxiety attack.
its funny that jws are allowed facebook profiles but not myspaces... when i was leaving myspace was really being talked down as pretty much evil. They even counciled me for having a music myspace.
jesus accepted the spirit's invitation to go into the desert and be tempted by satan.. he proved his faith and proved satan wrong.. why don't they follow jesus's example?.
why are they so frightened to have their faith tested?.
jw's used to be always on offense when it came to debate.. they are now mostly on defense..
simple
JW's =/= Jesus
i know a dear 'sister', 60 yrs.
old, who has been a faithful witness all her life.
if she put in just 10 hrs./mo.
actually, i've learned alot personally in my time in field service... and i am sure it has enhanced me in various ways that i wouldnt have had otherwise. Regardless of right or wrong, walking up to a stranger and talking to him about reading the bible takes balls, and if you arent just repeating the party line, even moreso ;)
"there must be some way out of here," said the joker to the thief,.
"there's too much confusion, i can't get no relief.. businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth,.
none of them along the line know what any of it is worth.".
no, he didnt.
i needed room when i moved so i sadly threw my entire library away.
i mentioned this to an exjw.
he and his wife took all the hundreds of books, including bound volumes from the 1800s and are now using them for research and proof of watchtower lies.. what did you do with your books?.
had a huge bonfire of the real superfluous stuff - for a while kept a decent amount of things but trashed it.
I still have some things, to remind myself of the situation i left behind.
no, i have no idea... North Carolina is the place ive lived the shortest...
oh yeah what about marrieta ohio?
most ex-jw's df/da that i know end up living a dangerous life.
some get into drugs, prostitution, gangsterism,etc.
as a result they prove the jw theory that says "whoever leaves jehovah's organisation won't make it" right.. it's difficult for me to say this, but it seems like jw's are partly right on this one.. why do most ex-dubs end up in a predicament of some sort?
maybe he is just going from experience. In my experience, i know about 18 disfellowshipped people, and i think im the only one that made it out ok.... we're talking crack addiction, prostitution, gang violence, republicans
is the society violating the 3rd commandment by naming the street of theuir branch on guam "jehovah street"?.
