This will be a GREAT organization!
by Kensho inwhen...... 1) we follow christ example not the gb.
2) stop df'ing those for challenging current or past doctrine and allow us to use our god given gift of reason and free wil.
sure kick out the scumbags even the lions club have rules for membership, but not those who just use their brains and consience.. 3) get rid of the nonsensical blood teaching that has cost the lives of thousands and beg god for forgiveness.

Misconception 1:...........
by Jon Preston inatheists want there to be no god.
absolutely false!
atheists i have met arent evil, but very moral.

Jon preston, totally subsribe to your comment.
the way watchtower paints the picture of Atheists is completely stereotyping.
I never understood, how someone cannot believe in a creator until I learned about, what proof really means...

Thus weeks cong book study! Such double standards.
by stuckinarut2 inok so this weeks book study says that jehovah does not protect individuals in a miraculous way..... but the yearbook gets filled with so called experiences of "faithful" ones blabbering on about "how god saved me etc".
these ones are held up as examples of faith etc....... how do they justify the double standards?

double standard is the second name of the wt-org
higher education, blood, pagan origin, clergy, association with UN, questioning of doctrine, etc, etc...

A serving elder's take on the new "tithing" arrangement
by TTATTelder inthe gb can kiss my ass.. i'm writing "0" on the little slip of paper they pass out.. hey here's a thought:.
you know that "widow's might" stuff they're always talking about?
well i'm pretty dang sure that the lady was giving from the heart not because she filled out some dumba$$ piece of paper pledging two small coins several months previous!.

an elder used the local needs to read and sicuss this letter, the result was, eveyone was confused, even none of the elders understood really the letter,
the whole thing became just nonsense.
Should the brothers write down what they will donate per month all together? or only the money for the construction? Or should they write down what amount should be taken from a) the kingdom hall income or b) matth 24:14 box ?
nobody really knew at the end, was kind of funny...

The JW will argue, that somebody who joins them is educated about the practice of disfellowshipping and agreed to it
However, how does this apply to children ? Or to certain sins, which are not mentioned neither in the bible , nor in the babtism questions?

not now, and not so soon.
everybody now is talking about WW1 on all its consequences on the years after, and how it changed the world. Witnesses just love it, since it confirms their predicted date of jesus reign, even though its soo opposite of what you would expect of jesus rulership...
once 1914 will fade from collective memory, maybe approaching 100 years of WW2, then we will see.....

Helsinki Times Article: "The End of the World" - Lengthy interview with many former JWs
by AndersonsInfo inhttp://www.helsinkitimes.fi/finland/finland-news/domestic/10435-the-end-of-the-world.html.
the end of the world.
last autumn, jussi k. began to plan his disassociation from jehovah's witnesses.

very well written, accurate information, well researched.
and it all boils down to one issue: the disfellowshipping.
If JW ever abandon it, nobody would care anymore about some of their weird beliefs, as most religions have weird beliefs.
However, as the article pointed out, they will not give up shunning, it is their very tool of control. Without it, they would just diminish.

Any active jws, without using the phrase "God must have..." Can you prove that Noah's ark actually happened
by DuvanMuvan ini have a number of problems with the noah's ark story that i could never find the answer to in the bible and so i thought i could ask here:.
1.how did noah get animals that are indigenous to areas he could not get to (e,g penguins, koalas, kangaroos, moose etc) .
2.the flood supposedly happened around 4000 years ago but there is evidence of civilisation dating back a lot further.
