Are JWs creationists?
by Jeffro inif you believe what is officially stated on the jw website, jws are not creationists.

I enjoy reading Cracked all though sometimes you need to take what their writers say with a grain of salt.

researching polytheism of the Jews
by DeWandelaar ini was researching the history of the jews and in wikipedia it is said that in origin the jews were polytheists by default and became monotheist in a later period of time.
i was not aware of this (neither do many others) and am therefore putting some of my findings here:.
first of all the obvious things.

The old testament makes a lot more sense when you look at it in the context of polytheism.

by CyrusThePersian inin john 8:44 jesus is quoted as saying that the devil is a "liar and the father of the lie.
" an obvious reference to the serpent story in genesis chapter 3.

Encounter at McDonalds
by jws inso i was helping some friends move and it came time for a break, i took my kids to mcdonalds.
we're sitting there and there's a family across from us, man, wife, 2 kids under 4. in the next booth is this older guy, maybe late 60's.. i'm not really paying attention, but then this older guy says something to the family about everybody being "me-first" these days.
so that caught my ear.

Somebody that many years along, who has devoted his whole life to it. It is probably all he has. It's his social circle. It's his way of staying relevant in some way.

This has nothing to do with how many are placed. It has to do with circulation. Of course they are going to be in the top 10 if every JW gets 5-10 of each. The real question is how many people actually read them.

One of the most crippling feelings in the world to feel is guilt.
One of the first things the JW religion teaches is to instill lots of guilt. This is something that haunts me. Constantly. I'll be sitting in my cubicle at work, doing something mind numbing and all the sudden it hits. A wave of guilt. I don't even know what I'm feeling guilty about. But that feeling looms. I must be doing something wrong.
