  Some St Patrick facts.

  He was really Scottish [some sources will say British]

  He was kidnapped [when a child] by Irish raiders who took him back to Ireland and forced him into slavery.

  He escaped years later and made it home and then went to Rome and became a priest and later was sent to Ireland as a bishop to convert the isle from paganism.

  He is a saint for converting the Irish to Christianity [Catholicism specifically] AND there were never any snakes in Ireland.

  It seems that many witnesses simply dont care about facts?

  i often wonder if the current crop of witnesses, especially the youth and younger ones simply don't care about facts?.

  i mean for some, even with knowledge of the past scandals, misleading teachings, mistruths, etc etc, they simply don't care.

  "it is the truth after all".. they are so intertwined in the operations and activities of the society, that they cant see anything outside of it.

  Unless a JW can perspnally verify a given fact, it all comes down to a choice of who to believe: Jehovah or Satan?

  Umm, that is just sad, because the bible [that JWs say they follow more than anyone else] is filled with facts that are written down and are very easy to confirm that go completely against JW beliefs.

  Who to believe, Jehovah or Satan?! Give me a break.

  is this a slogan that was recently come up with for jw's?

  i've seen it used as a hashtag on instagram for jw's, key chains, cakes, about me biography description... the first thing i thought was, isn't that a little pretentious?

  they complain so much about this life.

  If they say it often enough, they will begin to believe it.

  It is all so Orwellian and North Korean, sorry if those examples are becoming cliches, but that is exactly what it is.

  Blatant untruth, Propaganda Grade A.

  Steel, I agree.

  When I read the Watchtower and Awake mags I am amazed at the amount of print used to dump on other faiths. Not only that, but how little print they put in explaining their own faith. Not a lot of reasoning to put theirs into prospective.

  That always led me to speculate the reason is because they have such little reasons for their beliefs, but they put it out to their cong full force.

  My brother and his family think that they will not die....weird

  the watchtower library is a great tool to learn more about the watchtower itself.

  for example, answering the question "does the word "organization" ever appear in the bible"?

  is easy to answer using it.

  How about this one about the father and the other one about Jesus

  IS 44; 6 This is what Jehovah says,

  The King of Israel+ and his Repurchaser,+ Jehovah of armies:‘I am the first and I am the last.+

  There is no God but me.+

  And Rev 1;1717 When I saw him, I fell as dead at his feet.

  And he laid his right hand on me and said: “Do not be afraid. I am the First+ and the Last,+ 18 and the living one,+ and I became dead,+ but look! I am living forever and ever,+ and I have the keys of death and of the Grave.*+

  I have heard a comment on these verses about Jesus from elders that Jesus was a mighty god, but not Almighty God

  NWT IS 9; 6 For a child has been born to us,+

  A son has been given to us;And the rulership* will rest on his shoulder.+

  His name will be called Wonderful Counselor,+ Mighty God,+ Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

  Sorry to hear that ADD

  One's religious upbringing does not make one a nice person.

  Only the examples that people have growing up help determine such things.

  If you would say that they were pagans and not Christians, they may hold you accountable....

  I doubt that was your play though lol

  The catholic church thinks all faiths that are not catholic are missing the total picture .

  Jws, [to the catholic church], like many other forms of christianity are not 100%, they take only portions of the bible or the deposit of faith [as the catholics call it] to have a religion.

  JWs on the other hand feel every other faith is dead.
