What would happen to a JW if they were prescribed medical marijuana?
by manicmama ini was just looking at the news and this just popped into my head.
what if you had terminal cancer and were prescribed this by your physician?
you already have a terminal disease so the thing about destroying your "body as a temple" thing is a mute point.

It depends on their upbringing. Most are uncontollable monsters. But the ones with decent parents are awesome.

What Do JWs Think About Dinosaurs?
by Cold Steel ini've seen evangelical sites that show dinosaurs dying in the great flood.
these people believe that god created the earth in seven 24-hour days, and have wondered that if god could just "speak" the earth into existence, why he would need the other six days.
(couldn't he just will it into existence in a flash?).

The dino's are the key to understanding Satan. He wasnt just called the serpent. But also the dragon. The Dino fossil record wouldnt have been able to be understood untill modern times. They were real and this is a fact. They were not included in the bible. This is for a reason. If they were included in the bible wouldnt it have been great for proving the devine inspiration of it? Like the circle of the earth long before columbus. So why leave such an important thing out.
Its a code. Laid out for our times. If you get the code you understand the true meaning of what happened in the garden of eden.

Woe to the Pregnant woman
by exwhyzee inluke 21:23 " woe to the pregnant woman and the ones suckling a baby in those days!
for there will be great necessity upon the land and wrath on this people.. the society always applied this scripture, which was talking about the destruction of jerusalem, to the last days and the destruction of this system of things.
the big 1975 push was in full swing when my mother found out she was pregnant with my youngest sister.

You all will never believe this but a female friend of mine just was told by her bible study that it is a sin to have kids in these days. I cant believe they are that friggin bold!

Do they still have that sky blue book on Creation vs Evolution?
by NomadSoul ini just thought of that from reading another tread.
i remember we were studying that book the same time they were teaching the theory of evolution in my biology class.
i need to get that book just to bring back memories.

Evolution is true except for man. He is a unique creation.
God put the forces in motion for evolution to take place. So the most accurate way of saying it is... Gods creations evolved.

What do you think about the anointed?
by MrFreeze indo you think most of those who claim to be anointed are faking it or do you think they actually believe they are anointed?
it's something i've always wondered..
-
-
frigginconfused
What proof do they have to show theyre anointed? How do the elders know who is and isnt? They must have some sort of criteria or else they wouldnt be able to say this one is or isnt really anointed. The whole thingis too mysterious for me.

The Amish
by James_Slash ini watched an interesting programme last night on the amish religion.
i remember watching the film "witness" many years ago with harrison ford so i already had an insight into what sort of people they were.. they seem a peaceful, family/community orientated group who stick to the teachings in the bible like glue.
when jesus spoke about 'being separate from the world' surely no-one could have followed this more than the amish.
-

I think youre right about the amish. They live closer to the bible than the Jw's in the aspect of being no part of the world. The only problem is they are "stabbing themselves with many pains". They dont need to be so damned hardcore to live that kind of life. The modern homesteaders are living like amish but are youthfull and funloving.
I wish I could start a community similar to the amish but be more loving and tolerant. Thats the best way to preach the good news. Lead by example. Show how a community can live without modern commercialism.
Guess Im just too much of a neo-hippie.

Birthdays and Jehovah
by I quit! inmy birthday is coming up next week.
ever since leaving the watchtower i aways do something on or round that day with my sister.
we usually go to lunch and do something like see a movie, play golf, or spend the day at the beach together.

Birthdays are a problem if you are going to live forever. The concept of time changes when youve been alive for hundreds of years. To put a timeline on your life marks an end to it. I was born. Dont remember when. Dont care. Planning on living 200 years old at least in this imperfect world to prove that point. My not celebrating birthdays is not because of god. Its because of me. But not celebrating birthdays because the only mention of it in the bible is negative, is stupid superstition. Have fun.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Jehovah provides for pioneers but takes no action on behalf of children being abused
by jambon1 inthis was something that i could never get my head around.. i recall being at a convention and a pioneer couple (who happened to be complete arseholes) were talking about how they had had this bill for a car repair & 'didn't know what they were going to do so they prayed about it & waited on jehovah'.
the bill was for 66.73 & within a few days they had returned home to find an electricity rebate made out to them for 66.73. et voila!
all sorted out.

Im so sorry for both of you. I had the same thing. Always prayed but never got help. The example youre using of pioneers getting a car is superstition. If you pray for a car and you get one it had to be god. But if you pray for help from abusers then god isnt listening. That flawed outlook on god is exactly why the JWs are turning people away from him. Thats not what god is. He is deeper than our mere mortal earthly problems. God is the harmony of the universe. When you take time to notice the way the food chain works and the ocean currents, or the migration of the monarch butterfly you can see amazing harmony. Its not his fault we are not in synch with the universe. It is us thats busted. Very horrible bad things are going to happen to even innocent children. All we can do in this world is to teach them this fact. Teach them that horrible things can happen to you and the only thing that matters is your outlook on them. You do have a measure of controll over all the chaos. You controll how you percieve things. Some people grew up without enough love from mommy and become serial killers. Some grow up the same way but become loving devoted parents to not let what happened to them happen to their kids. Same bad thing but different outlook changes the whole ballgame.
This will not always be. Eventually God will step in. When he does none of this will have mattered.
Why?
Because after you have lived ten thousand years some bad event that happened in your youth will have no effect on your life. It seems like people live a whole life in misery. But if God is really going to do what he says then in the scheme of things nothing can go on too long or be too horrible to endure for such a short time. Sounds too easy. Im not saying you are expected to be superman. Just saying we should look for love in this world and give love freely. Dont focus on the negative. God has not abandoned you. Weve abandoned him.
Now que the rage that the readers will direct at me for sticking up for god...
