  thank you for all the kindness and many interesting discussions over the years.

  i wish you all well in the future and the decisions you make.

  That is the only way to know if he's a real JW now

  Do you even listen to yourself?

  the other night, the elder was getting us ready for our convention.

  as i sat there, i was thinking, 'do you even listen to yourself?

  ' everything thing he said, said its going to suck.. bring a hat: its going to be sunny, prepared to get sunburned.. bring plenty of water: its going to be hot and sweaty.. parking is going to be bad: prepare to walk a mile to the site.. bring a fm radio: its going to be echoy inside.. .

  No they don't listen to themselves.

  The conversations only make sense when they are surrounded by people who say the same things day in and day out.

  To an outsider, they look like total idiots.

  looks like there is a "hospitality committee" that has been desgnated to "sell" the convention city for each place an international convention is being held.. other posts on this site have displayed the websites for detroit & atlanta, this one is for new orleans.. .

  http://jw2014neworleans.org/.

  Lawrence Krauss

  by KateWild in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  krauss is an atheist activist and self-described antitheist.

  hence his science is biased.

  being an antitheist means he's anti god.. anyone disagree?.

  False premise.

  Any examples you can provide of his science being wrong because of his bias?

  WT admitted "Jehovah" is not God's name...

  by Watkins in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if i remember right(unlikely, lol) it was a one-page article about the tetragrammaton which concluded by saying that even though "jehovah" was 'probably' not an accurate pronunciation, it is a widely-recognized and accepted english transliteration of the divine name.

  i was thinking it was on the last page or maybe the back cover of a wt pub - maybe a watchtower.. can someone please direct me to the publication it was in?

  i read it when i was still 'in' and it made me stop and think about how much emphasis the wt puts on that name, all while knowing it's not the name.

  The absurdity is in the absolute insistence in using the name, despite evidence to the contrary. Its like it is their 'lucky charm'.

  If the Hebrew desert God is up there, he'd undoubtedly be ignoring the nincompoops who continue to insist on calling him by the wrong name.

  Archbishop Didn't Know Sex With Children Was a Crime

  by Stealth in

  2. child-abuse

  wtf .

  the st. louis archbishop embroiled in a sexual abuse scandal testified last month that he didnt know in the 1980s whether it was illegal for priests to have sex with children, according to a court deposition released monday.

  archbishop robert carlson, who was chancellor of the archdiocese of minneapolis and st. paul at the time, was deposed as part of a lawsuit against the twin cities archdiocese and the diocese of winona, minnesota.

  Idiotic WT reasoning for birthdays

  by Batman89 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  additionally, birthday celebrations tend to give excessive importance to an individual, no doubt one reason why early christians shunned them.

  (ecclesiastes 7:1) so you will find that jehovahs witnesses do not share in birthday festivities (the parties, singing, gift giving, and so forth).

  school and jehovah's witnesses p.18.

  That dude Jesus bears a lot of responsibility.

  Telling your peeps you are coming back within a generation and then disappearing for 2,000 years isn't cool.

  A few thoughts on the District, um, Regional... sigh....

  by Apognophos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i don't even know what the bloody event is called anymore.

  i think it's still a district convention until it goes to two days, isn't it?

  my convention program leaflet just says "convention of jehovah's witnesses", seemingly intentionally avoiding the change in wording.

  Thanks.

  Interesting thoughts on number 6 there, maybe a quiet way to weed out all of the apostates within? But I really have a hard time believing they actually can think a plan through like that.
