And Dont Call Me Shirley- Great post exposing another WTS lie
Hope my brother thinks that means something. How can one reason with someone who thinks lying for the truth is acceptable and koser?

what song would you dedicate to the wt if you knew they would be listening?
put the title or post some of the lyrics for those of us that may not know it.
first thing that comes to my mind.. are the following... .
Watchtower song? Who's choosing, the WTS?
We are the champions by Queen- of course

occassionally (very) i have met jw's that don't know me and i would like to ask them something to make them think.. any suggestions for quick, simple, thought provoking questions to ask jw's that you may meet?.
i seem to remember 'v' did a youtube question along the lines of,.
''how can you belong to a religion that allows blood fractions to be transfused?''.
Another question is "If the catholics were corrupt apostates by the early 300s, then how can we trust the bible is the word of God?"
The cannon of teh holy scriptures were confirmed around 393 or so.
sorry, don't mean to kill the post
the new watchtower, 15th february 2015, p6 6, say :.
the bible writer jude recorded an example from jesus prehuman existence.
(read jude 9.
Michael disputed with Satan over the body of Moses while equals in heaven? Yet on earth, as Jesus. Michael has authority over everything that God made?
Doesn't add up...

Why do you go door to door with a Catholic book?
leave it in jehovah's hands.
is there a more disgusting phrase in jw land?.
the abuse, harms, thefts, suicides, family destruction - leave it in jehovah's hands.. why would anyone with a more than 2 neurons say, "oh that makes sense," we do not need to change or intervene in any way.. sooner or later, god will take of things.. .
Anddontcallmeshirley- a little harsh...just saying
I think Perry makes the point that when you have faith (in God, not a cult), then God will lead you where you belong.
I agree with his post.
The truth will set you free. And merry Christmas!
dc
there are numerous similarities between jesus and jehovahs witnesses.
to mention a few:.
1) both suspected they are anointed by god and started preaching work.. 2) both had some ambiguous references (which can be interpreted to suit any conclusion one likes to have) from the scriptures.. 3) friends and family members of both generally believed they were insane (mark 3:21), and religious experts attributed power of satan to the work being accomplished by both (mark 3:22).
Both claim to be equal to God
"I baptise you in the name of the FATHER, the SON, and GODS VISABLE ORGANSIZATION''

i was speaking with a jw yesterday.
i'd previously mentioned the removal of the brackets around 'other' in colossians 1 making the mistranslation complete.
during our chat he said that the previous edition of the nwt was the more correct one, that the revised version was simply more readable and that it shouldn't be considered the best translation.
To Wonderment -
Thank you for your reply. Like Phizzy said, your reply was balanced, however I respectfully disagree. It is not an opinion that no one endorses the NWT, it is a fact.
While some may say that there are some things that are accurately translated, no group, university or scholar endorses the NWT or the RNWT as an honest and true body of work or even a translation {save for the WTS and it's apologists}
I'm not, nor do I claim to be a scholar, but everytime the WTS quotes a scholar who endorses their version, research shows the scholars quotes were taken out of context....sounds familiar, doesn't it?
just saying,,,hopefully somewhat respectfully,

catholic churches were known for starting schools, orphanages, resthomes, hospitals along with other ideas like universities.
we can debate who started what but you will be missing the point.
i know some of the best colleges were started by religion, what has the watchtower contributed to society as a whole?
Please name a JW foodbank, homeless shelter, battered womens home, hospital, clinic, orphanage, old age home, etc.
My brother and his family are JWs and when he got very sick about 10 years ago, we were the only ones who visited with him. Not one person/friend from the kingdom hall came to visit him or even call his wife to see if they needed anything.
They say that they come to help their own, but really, I don't think they even do that.
jusst saying,
