Let's Talk Horror Movies
by LoveUniHateExams inhorror is easily my favourite genre of movie so i just thought i'd start a thread on it.. horror can be done badly and there are plenty of crap horror movies, no doubt about that.
but horror can also be done very well, too - often on a low budget.. plus, there are quite a lot of subgenres - slasher, supernatural, monster movies, body horror, psychological horror, zombie, vampire, etc.. so, do you like horror?.
what's your favourite subgenre?.

Who is The Lord?
by JW Answers inthe jehovah's witnesses believe that only the father is lord god, however by searching the scriptures we can identify that there are more than one person in the godhead, and the lord jesus as well as the holy spirit are lord.. for those who are interested in learning, feel free to watch this new video..

I have to share these scriptures They all are speaking about Jesus.
by niknak inhe is the image of the invisible god,m the firstborn of all creation;n16 because by means of him all other things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible,owhether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities.
all other things have been created through himp and for him.17 also, he is before all other things,q and by means of him all other things were made to exist, .
the scriptures above are in nwt bible and are found in colossians 1:15-17. now take note of the following scriptures found in john 1:1-5.

What I noticed in those scriptures is that they are all speaking about Jesus but in Colossians it says he made all "Other" things (which JW will stand firm on that) but they also say in John chapter 1 that he made "all" things. When I studied with all their bibles it shows when the word "other" wasn't in there, when they added it and when they made it as though the word has always been there. Taking away or adding is wrong according to the word. specially since there's a difference between making all things and making all other things.
Yes Niknak, you're 100% correct. The WTS DID change the scriptures to fit their theology. Shame on them!
Unfortunately, that's just a drop in the bucket as there are many other examples of the deceitful traditions in translations and worship practices from the WTS.
Guess what though, It shows in their fruits. Notice how the WTS does not have any fruits?
Oh, sure. They talk about their fruits [going door to door restoring Gods name], but really those are works, not fruits. And what fruits do their works produce? Answer-NOTHING GOOD

In WTS theology Jesus is an angel. Servant of Jehovah and the WTS. What else do you need to know for real Christianity?

Why doesn't the Watchtower Society never study the Bible cover to cover?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inin the 40 years as a jehovah's witness, i never read the bible cover to cover.
the three meetings a week were broken up with book studies, awake and watchtower magazines,and ministry& field service meetings, all written by the watchtower society.
never did we read any chapters from genesis to revelation and discuss the true meaning of what we just read.

Simple answer is because the bible doesn't make sense. It's not reasonable, logical, nor believable.

I remember their booklet "Should You Believe In The Trinity" , It sounded very scholarly and convincing as it listed many of the early church fathers, those even taught by the apostles themselves, and how they never considered Jesus equal to God. Then as people read these church fathers, people realized that the WTS's Should you Believe Booklet was a crock of BS. A publication of distortion trying to convince people that it has authority on Christian matters.
What, I wonder, ever became of that published booklet ?

NWT Being the Most Accurate
by VIII ini was going through my old files and came upon an email between some family that i was privy to.
it is about the nwt bible and alex trebek asking what is the most accurate bible, etc.
i am copying and pasting this (for nathan natas...) so he will have so fun data to carry with him with that jw bible as he goes door-to-door.

Accuracy in the NWT is a myth.
It's translation is rendered inaccurate in the first chapter in Genesis
Translated as 'God's active force'?
I don't think so.....
Genesis1:1-31

Mark 7:6-9 about Tradition
by Secreetly inwhen i asked my jw relatives about why they are the chosen one, she said one of the reasons can be found in mark 7:6-9. jw’s stand firm in rejecting all man made traditions including christmas, halloweenc and birthdays whereas no other religion does so.
.
what are your opinions about this?

Because the bible is a Catholic book, they would be the ones to tell you what it means. They put it together, they protected it through the centuries, they use it in their liturgy, it's their book. Why would anyone care what a JW thinks about the bible? They have no authority in it at all. None
The WTS is just another 19th century american invention re-branding what was already established.
That's why there's so much new light. Another group of JWs come into power and they interpret the scriptures according to their own ideas instead of what Jesus commanded

What your first realization of hypocrisy in this Religion?
by days of future passed inmy mother became a witness when i was five and i believed that every witness followed what was said at the meetings and the instructions given.
my naive belief carried on until maybe i was 10?
at the old conventions, volunteers would come early and pack fruit into net bags so that it could be sold at lunch.
