What’s worse?
stuck in a university when tragedy befalls you or just plain stuck when tragedy befalls you?
the governing body is going all out at this years convention.
they are still discouraging university education.
i guess the end must be real close .

That’s like me saying “my cousin is a Mormon “
I don’t think anyone really gives a flying F$&@.
or, at least, no Catholic does.

on a trip to rome a few years ago i asked my friend (who is roman and jw) what the catholic faith thinks of jw.
he simply stated that jw is tolerated by the church but that really not much thought is given to them.
is there an official stance on jw by the catholics?
Vienne,
I agree with you on that God was responsible for the Bible. The Catholic Church would say that they have been guided by the Holy Spirit in the creation of their holy book which was/is used extensively in their liturgy.

Vienne,
it should not be lost on you, or anyone else, that it was the Catholic Church, that produced, propagated, protected and promoted the Bible. The Catholic Church, because of its history, continuity l, unwavering and mostly unchanged doctrines makes it a standard against all other Christian denominations are compared to.

When I heard “Lying for the Truth”
I immediately thought, how sad that a person could be fooled like that. If that doesn’t wake you up, then no history of false prophesy could ever.

praying to god “through the son jesus” has nothing to do with christ as mediator.. do jw's even know what a mediator does?.
i am in the insurance restoration construction business and have been in mediation many times when a policy holder sues an insurance company for not paying everything they believe is due them under the terms of their policy for property damage.. i am brought in as a technical expert.. in mediation, the plaintiff (policy holder) and the defendant (insurance company) are placed in separate rooms, they do not talk to each other.
they are separated because the dispute has alienated the one from the other.
Beth S, makes you think that the bread and wine is MORE than a symbol, doesn’t it?

More than mediator, more than intercessor and savior, more than any angel (no offense Michael)
He (Jesus Christ,) is YOUR judge. Jehovah (Father) judges no one, Jesus Christ alone judges you!

how many of you here remember 1975?
i hope the newer generations never forget.the true believers got shamed for it.
those who were hedging their bets, fared much better.
1975?
just another year or rather. Another Rotation of the earth around the sun.
or rather another falsely prophesied year that Gods final judgement against humanity…or rather., a wake up call that the Lord does NOT adhere to JW false doctrine/prophesy/teachings.
turn away from this false doctrine/teaching/faith/belief.
Turn away from the false blood interpretation.
Save your family from proven ignorance. Let the scriptures be your guide!
