we all know that jw who would still believe if tony morris killed a baby on the roof of wallkill and put it on the internet.
for those people will there come a time when they will see or do you think someone so deep in a cult will never come to realize its all a lie.
I think they will continue to suppress doubts until something happens that causes them to feel personally hurt.
Often that is the moment when we allow ourselves to entertain negative thoughts.
Subtle efforts to feed doubts in advance can pay off eventually.
in the old testament, god was always full of anger and jealousy resulting in the murder of millions of people.
we’re told jesus perfectly reflects his fathers qualities.
why in the new testament does jesus show no hint of anger and jealousy and wanting to kill people?
Cofty, I guess the first thing I would challenge is that any life is "innocent" because there is original sin - Iriddle80
What did a baby do to be deserving of suffering?
Try to avoid parroting dogma and tell me what you really think?

I don't see any insults in my post, don't be so precious.
Faith and evidence are diametrically opposed.
'Eucharistic miracles' are risible.

I have no respect for faith that pretends to be based on scientific evidence.
Don't insult us with fairy stories about 'eucharistic miracles' just have the balls to say you believe despite all the evidence against the dogma because it makes you happy to do so. I could respect that.
girl, 5, from jehovah's witness family can have blood transfusion, judge says.
by michael black.
a high court judge has ruled that doctors can give a sick five-year-old girl from a jehovah’s witness family a blood transfusion.. the little girl’s parents said their religious beliefs would not allow them to consent to a blood transfusion.. but they said they would not object to a judge making the decision.. mr justice hayden was told that the little girl was in a “grave” situation and could die or suffer a stroke if she did not have a transfusion.. the judge analysed evidence at a public hearing in the family division of the high court (pictured) in london on wednesday after hospital bosses asked him to make a decision as a matter of urgency.. he said bosses at the leeds teaching hospitals nhs trust had responsibility for the girl’s care and had made the application.. he said the girl was being treated at leeds children’s hospital.. the judge heard evidence via a telephone link to the hospital.. a specialist told mr justice hayden that the little girl was suffering from sickle cell disease, an inherited blood disorder, and that her condition had deteriorated.. .
I suspect most JW parents in this situation are very happy for the court to take over. Actually I suspect the GB are secretly relieved too.

Niknak - If god wants a personal relationship with all of us like a loving father how do you explain the hiddenness of god?

Lriddle80 - If god is so loving and cares about your individual needs how do we explain the capricious destruction of innocent lives?
it could be argued that exjws have issues in life simply because they were jehovah’s witnesses at a point in their lives.
.
do you think you or we are fairly normal considering we were jehovah’s witnesses or do you think we have a lot of baggage because we are a bit messed up ( even if we don’t even know it)?.
As an ex JW there often remains the bad habit of being on the look out for the bad or for evidence that things are getting worse
A feeling of angst is the sine qua non of all committed JWs.
The question is whether that is created by the cult or does it just exploit people who already have that personality type?
now i think i may have seen everything.. "boy crowned prom queen by schoolmates".
i'm all for people being entitled to wear what they want and live as they please as long as they're not harming anyone but - a male prom queen?
maybe there wasn't much competition in his school?.
There are two sexes (gender is a word that only belongs in linguistics) - he is male.
The boy is gay. He and his mum and his teachers and all his friends need to accept that and move on.
well i thought i give it a try, sharing my info.. obviously, not getting the hang of posting here.. you know where to find me on fb.. can somebody please explain how delete topics?.
Nathan. My main problem is not with your style of presentation - although that is a major issue - it is with your sensationalist claims.
You constantly misrepresent facts. It leaves people like us who detest the cult having to defend it from your illogical tirades.
The fuss you are making about whether it is a religion or a business is one glaring example.
Always present your arguments in a way that your opponent cannot correct any of your facts.
