  2. friends

  i get sick and tired of hearing the watchtower lie that they.

  Alternatives to JWs

  by Xander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  since there are new people coming to this board on fairly regular basis with questions about the jw religion, i thought i'd pose this topic.. many, upon leaving the organization, don't really know where to turn for guidance.

  "look to yourself" doesn't really cut it when you've been told how to think your whole life.. many choose atheism, which is fine.

  however, for those still looking for a religion, here is a site that lists many of the worlds major religious movements.

  it appears that alot of people on this board believe in evolution (either by that name or by another) as the explanation for the origins of life.

  1. where did plants come from?.

  Bible Error: The Visit to the Tomb

  by JosephAlward in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the following two accounts of the morning visit by the women to anoint jesus body are contradictory.

  according to mark, the women wondered how they would remove the stone covering the tomb, but they found that it had already been rolled away.

  matthew, however, says that when the women went to the tomb, there was an earthquake, and an angel came down from heaven, went to the tomb, and rolled the stone back.

  Why Not Reject 1st Century Org. as God's ?

  by Explorer in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  to all those offended by the wt's behavior :.

  one of the biggest cause of confusion among loyal ones to the wt org.

  today, and those dissenting, is the very concept of what to expect from jehovah's organization on earth.

  Will JW's Emulate Catholics?

  by Kenneson in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  news article in today's paper is entitled "credit catholics for cleaning house" by stanley crouch (new york daily news).

  "somehow in our nation we are almost always called upon to lead the way when it comes to things of human concern.. "that is why, after all these years of the catholic church's hiding behind cathedral doors, miters and robes, we should be glad that boston's cardinal bernard law has ignored the dictates of rome and called on his clergy to report to the police all the charges of sexual abuse of children by priests..............."

  1914: A lucky guess? Or divine inspiration?

  by Gopher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we know the wt society has a long history of prophecies, especially regarding dates.

  almost 100% of such prophecy was in error.. it seems though, that they got a date right by foretelling that 1914 would be "the end of the world as we know it".

  yes, they changed the meaning of 1914 several times.
