  What is the org’s view on extraterrestrial life?

  by My Name is of No Consequence in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am sure that it has been discussed before.

  but just out of curiosity, what is the orgs view on extraterrestrial life?

  the org certainly agrees that the universe is infinitely large.

  I just thought of something if the ''Disclosure Project'' comes to fruition and World Governments admit ''Disclosure''.

  I could see a few things happening with the rank and file

  1) The Borg will publish a series of broadcasts and WT's about Disclosure being one of Satan's tools to trick the JW's about Universal Sovereignty. Many, Many JW's will accept the Borg's explanation.

  2) Quite a few JW's will just accept the fact that ''we are not alone in the Universe'' and that we are just kind of a little ''Bay'' in an immense Universe.

  3) A few would admit '' Well the bible doesn't say anything about God NOT creating life elsewhere, so let's accept the fact about ET life now!""

  4) I could see a few JW's going off the deep and perhaps committing suicide. This group being amongst the 40-50 years group being in the Borg, after realizing being ''lied'' to for decades, and decades.

  I agree 100% of what you say. Imagine JW's who have invested 45-50plus years of their lives into the Borg. The CANNOT open their eyes now. After investing their lives into pretty much all of their adult lives, they cannot be reasoned with otherwise, no matter how much evidence is shown to them about the Borg. They cannot or just don't want to be told otherwise!!!!! That's just the way it is.

  The Borg is 100% in disagreement against ET life!! Perhaps the strongest argument the Borg has against ET life is that of Universal Sovereignty. Any over righteous JW will adamantly argue their point of ''Why would Jehovah send down his firstborn and Mighty Son Jesus to die for imperfect mankind?''

  Secondly, should/when the governments of the world ever,ever, ever announce Disclosure of Alien Life, I firmly believe the WTBS has a secret agenda to tell the rank and file something along the lines of ''It's Satan and his Demons trying to deceive us''. Some crafty under their sleeve agenda to keep the rank and file in line.

  1914—The Turning Point in History - Really?

  by berrygerry in

  1914the turning point in history.

  30 from the human standpoint, the world troubles and global wars foretold in the bible were far from the thinking of the pre-1914 world.

  german statesman konrad adenauer said: thoughts and pictures come to my mind, .

  1914 is over 100years on now. That year is seeming to become less and less significant all the time.

  In hind site, I'll have to say there was no actual year to pinpoint, but a series of years or a decade in time which seems significant.

  I'd have to say the ''Industrial Revolution'' with the onset of the Cold War, and the end of the Cold War were the most significant periods in History.

  i was watching the news about the french terrorist attacks.

  not getting into that but i notice the media is churning it over a bit, now.

  moving switly on; there were prayers for peace reported.. question: what do those praying for peace think that god will actually do about their prayers?.

  When the big ''A'' comes and 7.5 billion plus are killed, the JW's will be happy.

  Why do people follow demonstrably False Prophets?

  by WireRider in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  why does everyone just turn a blind eye to the false teachings of the watchtower?

  the bible warns us many times and in many ways not to follow false prophets - including the lake of fire.

  fundamentally why do the followers of the watchtower just ignore the very bible they claim to live by?.

  That promise of a ''new world'' looks very appealing. Absolute health, abundance of food, cost-free living, endless like. That promise of ''cheating death'' eternally looks very, very, very appealing by living a living a life of walking on egg shells and living life on a knife's edge

  Review of the November 15 study article - "Stand Firm in the Faith"

  by Divergent in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this study article poses questions that we should ask ourselves.

  don't have time to analyze the whole thing, so will start from paragraph 8:.

  8 do gods promises seem less real to me now than they once did?

  Yeah, I always thought that the WT teaches Ransom Sacrifice applies to the anointed and for the sins committed by Adams and Eve. I thought too the WT teaches the Ransom doesn't cover sin inherited by mankind.

  Are the horrendous killings in Paris part of a religious practice?

  by clarity in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  islam is a religion of war, not a religion of peace .

  seems there are many religions who do not tolerate other groups.

  this statement "islam is a religion of war, not a religion of peace" reminded me of what was said at a watchtower convention in 2013 ....using a chilling example of how they condone dis fellowshipping & the soul killing practice of shunning!

  We all must go about our lives wherever we are and not let these things keep us locked in a closet, so to speak.

  It's understandable that people will be drawn to a promise of a perfect world, absolute health endless life. Truly, that's what keeps people in the Borg chasing and living that dream. Cheating death in a way, of sorts, by staying on this extremely narrow path.

  Billy and Stuck in a Rut;

  Those thoughts were what haunted me when I was at my earliest age of developing critical thinking, I would say as young as 8-years-old.

  Thoughts like ''what if the bigA would come and God will kill people like Mother Theressa & then why would God resurrect terrorists and bad people and leave people like Mother Theresa for dead?''

  Also thoughts like yours. The thought of as more time goes on, the more and more God has to destroy. Didn't make sense. I guess I could say I developed ''critical-thinking'' skills before age 10,LOL!!!!
