Where do we go when we die?

where do we go when we die?.

there are many very confusing concepts about this subject.

about where we go when we die, and no one i've found to date has really set forth a satisying answer to this question; so i thought i might just employ some of the knowledge i've gained from my own thirty year study of the bible.. where actually would be the most sensible place to begin when dealing with this subject?

this is gunna be a long road to truth, looking at both sides. and i will need help
by Aussie Oz in

2. beliefs
convinced as i 99% am that the wt society is all we have concluded, i feel i owe to myself and my children to be 100% convinced before actively trying to extract them.. first up i must say, doctrine is of little interest to me.

what gets me is the provable wrong-doing, the hypocrasy, cover-ups, double standards, you know what i mean i think.. on that sort of stuff, i feel it right to look at the counter arguments and proofs offered to explain the wt side of things, both by wt soc themselves and apologists.. therein lies the daunting road.

i grew up in the 'truth', so i never got to make sure of all things before getting baptised.

How do you feel about street people asking you for money

about half of the freeway exits i get off at have someone there begging.

in the past i felt they were only hitting me up for money to by drugs or booze so i rarely handed them any.

in this economy i'm wondering if some of them aren't really in need of something to eat.

Will the Society Ever Print Another Evolution Verse Creation Book?

i think if they do they will have to make many revisions now that information is so prevalent on the internet.

and with all that is known about dna and how it proves darwin was right i don't see how they could.

but i guess you can never put nothing past the wt and it's crack smoking writers to dig up something ridiculous to blur the lines of reality for the friends, for sure its got to be way harder to write such a book today and keep a straight face..

Jehovahs Witness History ?
by exjw2814 in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i understand that many jehovahs witnesses don't know the history of their own beleifs.

but, what i don't understand is that they always say "god always had an organization on earth.

"they simply just talk about how they use to be called "bible students" back in their early days.
