Status: Compromised. Not much time left.
by sd-7 insomething terrible happened.
i did something to compromise myself and unfortunately my double agent status is over.
i will soon have to move out on my own and either disassociate or face an invasive witch trial that i honestly would only take part in for the purpose of secretly recording it.

I think I burst a bubble for my mom...
by ClubKing ini was on the phone talking about how my 12 year-old has become interested in the theory of relativity since i commented some things about it to him...my mom, ever the jw, and for some reason thinking she can still convince me to go back to the borg, quickly states, "you know, einstein did believe in god".. "yes, he did, but only because of the order shown in the universe," i replied.
"he believed not in the god of the bible, but rather in an impersonal god that doesn't meddle with humanity's issues, sort of spinoza's god".. long silence.
"oh, i see," she mumbles.

Long silence. "Oh, I see," she mumbles. Then I proceeded to explain a couple more of Einstein's views about God.
I think I just broke one of those JW myths for her!

"We All Lose Faith Sometimes...."
by AllTimeJeff inthose who leave jehovah's witnesses are often misunderstood for the choices that they make after their exit.
from the jehovah's witness (jw) point of view, those who leave are leaving a "spiritual paradise" where "the truth" exists.
those who leave thus put their everlasting life in jeopardy.

Primate Dave: My god is my stomach. I cannot see my stomach, but I know it exists. I worship it every day with offerings, some of them burnt!
Eating too many pinchos, huh?

Fact Jews Returned In 538 BC Kills Off Watchtower Chronology
by AlanF inthe watchtower society's 1914 chronology hinges on a dicey chain of claims.
if any of these claims is wrong, then the chain is broken and watchtower chronology collapses.
along with it goes the entire belief structure built on it, including most importantly the claim of the leaders of jehovah's witnesses to have been specially appointed in 1919 by god over "all christ's belongings" on earth.

NWT - Accurately translated bible rumor
by Girlie inhas anyone on here heard of this rumor or even know if this is true?
supposedly, on an episode of jeopardy, one of the questions asked was which version of the bible was considered the most accurately translated from the original hebrew and greek text and the answer was the new world translation.
i tried looking this up online to no avail.
