I don't understand why the Media would jump all over the Catholics, but not the Witnesses?
Doesn't make sense to me at all.

here is a list of contradictions between what the watchtower society says and what the bible says:.
the watchtower says that judas iscariot left the lord's evening meal (memorial) before jesus instituted the new covenant and passed the wine and bread.. what does the bible say?:.
luke 22:13: they went, found things as he had told them, and they prepared the passover.
Great Post clash_city_rockers!
Here are some more Contradictions between the Watchtower and the Bible:
Every Bible out there says pretty much the same at Colossians 1:15-20:
However, the New World Translation (NWT) has added a few things to CORRUPT and CHANGE to BIBLE:
They obviously added those "[other]" words to make it appear that Jesus Christ was also CREATED!
Look what the Watchtower Society is guilty of doing:
Deuteronomy 4:2: You shall not add to the Word which I command you, nor take from it, to keep the Commandments of Jehovah your God which I command you.
Proverbs 30:6: Do not add to His Words, that He not reprove you, and you be found a liar.
i did some research on what the marriageable age was for girls in ancient, biblical israel.
it turns out it was around the age 12 or 13, although an old man could reserve them from a much younger age, by having them betrothed to him.
twelve or 13 was the age puberty started for them.
These are all good questions and ideas being brought up, and I am definitely going to do more research into this, and I'll let you know what I find out soon.
i just lost my last fleshly brother to the borg.
i am moving this weekend and i need his help.
and i asked him whats up?.
It makes me so sad to hear about everyone's OWN FAMILY treating them like this.
You will always be welcome and loved on this Website though.
And, no matter what ANYONE tells you, God loves you.

A BIG Welcome to rwagoner and Sunshine86!
To answer Sunshine86's question, most of the people on this Website are former JW's who have discovered the REAL Truth about the "the truth".
I send my Christian love to both of you!
In Christ,
UnDisfellowshipped
P.S., I just wanted to share some beautiful Scriptures with everyone:
1st John 4:8: The one who does not love has not known God, because God is love.
1st John 4:9: By this the love of God was revealed in us, because His Son, the Only Begotten, God has sent into the world that we might live through Him.
1st John 4:10: In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be an Atoning Sacrifice relating to our sins.
1st John 4:11: Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
1st John 4:12: No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love having been perfected is in us.
1st John 4:13: By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because of His Spirit He has given to us.
1st John 4:14: And we have beheld and bear witness that the Father has sent the Son as Savior of the world.
1st John 4:15: Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
1st John 4:16: And we have known and have believed the love which God has in us. God is love, and the one abiding in love abides in God, and God in him.
