  Elders encouraging young ones to live in a fairy tale

  by Addison0998 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so one of the elders at the meeting tonight addressed to parents in his talk, “if your child wants to flip burgers for the rest of their life, because that’s is the only job that will allow them to have a schedule for full time service, you would want to support them the best you can.” he has also said told parents that if their children already have plans to go to college, even in the near future, they should try to do everything to stop them.

  there’s so much ranting i could do about that alone, but to make matters worse, this is a considerably well off man.

  he has his own buisness, a nice house with an additional room he added on last year, and him and his wife just took a lavish european trip.

  Type / Antitype article discredits many JW teachings

  by Sanchy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was going over the type / antitype articles that were released in last year's watchtower articles and i've just realized how ironic it is those very articles can serve to demolish some of the most fundamental jw teachings.. take for instance the "questions from readers" section of the march 15, 2015 magazine.

  after mentioning some "far-fetched" interpretations that others have applied to bible events, they go on to say:.

  if such interpretations seem far-fetched, you can understand the dilemma.

  Posters do you know of any cases where a devout JW was DF'd for Lesbianism?

  i think this is a hush hush topic among jws but i remember years ago at an assembly i saw two sisters(i am only assuming they were jws they could have been studies or relatives of jws) walking arm and arm like a married couple.

  some of the jws looked at them like they had horns.

  some of the jws moms were covering their small children's eyes and those two women were stared at like they had the plague.

  Christianity (including Jehovah’s Witnesses) is the rejection of Christ

  by exWTslave in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  christianity (including jehovahs witnesses) is the rejection of christ.

  take one of the most important teachings of jesus:.

  1) he says one can even love his enemies and do good to them, and can tolerate anything (luke 6:27-32).

  Analysis of anti-607 BCE Rebuttals

  by Ethos in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i agreed yesterday to engage in the '607' topic.

  i've read numerous threads and am well aware that this topic has been addressed and dissected quite thoroughly.

  therefore, if you are uninterested in participating, that's fine.

  I Want Proof Jesus Even Existed

  by Farkel in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  don't bother me with the josephus addendum.

  i've already seen that debunked.. i am quite aware of the fact that the only evidence of jesus comes from his own followers who didn't even bother to write down his life for decades after jesus "died.

  " don't know about you, but if i saw all that shit, i would have gone home and written three books about it that same day!.

  Does the WT have spies here?

  by logical1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  does bethel have spies here that are exempt from the "no looking at apostate material" in order to "protect" the org?

  i.e.

  their job is to view apostate material so they can find out who they can send copyright infringement claims to?.

  so as you get farther along in your pregnancy and you get bigger and bigger, certain bodily functions are hard to control.

  the other day my husband, son and i went out for a nice lunch.

  we were dressed up and really enjoying ourselves, when it happened.
