this week bible reading is ps.102-105.
i noticed in ps 105:15: saying, “do not touch my anointed ones,and to my prophets do nothing bad.".
so are these part of the 144,000?
Why would ps 105 be anything to do with the 144,000? Isn't there any other meaning to "anointed ones" you can think of especially in view of the context of ps 105?
And you're right about the whole 144k thing being nuts, but don't stop there, there's plenty more nutty things just waiting for you to discover in the bible.
ok, i am reading through the book the watchtower and the masons by fritz spring meier which i am finding a fascinating read; and discovered that judge rutherford published the book 'cause of death'.
what is incredible is the book cover.
the book was published in 1932 which would have been a little bit more eye catching back then.
I still cant quite get over the fact that i used to believe this bible crap. My only saving grace is that i was born into this stupidity.
we had a bad experience with watchtower trying to infiltrate our forums.
let this story be a warning for all you guys here.
if you value your privacy do not ever send your real contact details to anyone, even if you trust them (because their accounts could be hacked or accessed by their relatives - and yes, this happened to people i know several times already).
The utter bastards. Thanks for the heads up.
If you have two identified jw . org infiltrators from IT departments then I'd say it is sanctioned from higher up and not DIY operations.
Expect more of this sort of thing...
anyone else also hold this view or understand it at least, or do you feel the need to argue that both can in no way coexist?.
Simon please limit or kick this troll.
hey everyone!.
first of all, i'm not a jw, in fact i'm an atheist, or if you really want to be technical about it i'm probably something like an agnostic atheist or something.. but, my girlfriend is a jw, she seems very rational about it though, it seems to me that she believes in a lot of it but not exactly all, for instance she does understands and believes in the scientific age of the earth and evolution.. when we started dating almost a year ago she made it clear she as religious person.
i never saw that as a problem, it's not like i'm trying to convert her or she's trying to convert me.
Find a normal girl instead.
Unless she is fully awake that it is a cult and is seriously planning her exit and that exit is happening regardless of any involvement with you then walk away.

To remain loyal to big J and his organisation we must abhor these lies of Satan and the apostates he uses to spread them! in the name of Tony the Turd, tight pants and spandex, Amen.

Denail, denail denail.
Someone has lots of DIY to do....
i've heard some weird stories coming from jws about the paranormal.
i know about the warnings about items that come from unbelievers -- those don't interest me as much.
what i am interested in are actual experiences in stories of the paranormal you've heard or experienced yourself.

Some brains just aren't wired right, so just because you have empathy, morals, conscience, kindness etc does not mean everyone else does.
Psychopaths tend to have a different brain structure. Nothing external is required to be "evil" the problem is in their brain, literally.
