Poor people believing a fairytale.. don't even know why the tree was in the garden. If only they had a hotline to the GB to answer these difficult questions for them.. pesky householders, forcing us to think.

Did you get a spritual family in compensation for your own?
by highdose intheres a scripture much touted by the jw's, goes somthing like " who has not lost brothers, sisters etc and not got tons more etc" ... no i ain't going to bother to look it up.. this was always offered as a great compensation for upsetting your family with your extreme jw beliefs.
but i never found it to be true.
yeah you went to the meetings and your so called spritual family was there.

Try any social club, any, a stamp collector club, a flower arrangement club, a soccer club, a book club. The relationships built there are more genuine and last longer than any in the kingdom hall.

MLE, I want to give you a thought. There never is a good time to quit. You can't wait for the right time to stop, because there never will come a right time to stop. Never.
Stop waiting. Just stop at the wrong time. Stop now. Now is as good as any.

New watchtower
by bohm inthe new watchtower is out (woooo) http://www.jw.org/ , and there is an article about "prophecies which has come true".
the most funny one is the one about earthquakes since, well, there just isnt an increase in earthquakes:.
what do the facts show?
-
the-illuminator81
Why do they even mention earthquakes.. first Jesus is not even clear that there should be an increase, or a that it is a sign (do not be misled). Then they deny their own statements in the same paragraph. Just drop the earthquakes, stop making a fool out of yourself.

Audio: WatchTower Teaching - Jesus will destroy people with mohawks
by kurtbethel inin this talk, has babylons judgment hour arrived, james reed claims that jesus will destroy people with mohawks, large belt buckles and colored hair, and not allow them into his kingdom.. this religion is getting nuttier and nuttier as it slips further into irrelevance.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whztkkyoqhi.

He called someone foolish (01:03). Now Jesus will throw him into Gehenna (Matthew 5:22).
Unless he's wearing a mohawk of course, because Jesus can't identify people with mohawks.

The King of the North and the King of the South. What gives?
by dgp inif i understood correctly, one of the ideas advanced as proof of jehovah's witnesses beliefs is that of the kings of the north and the south.
i didn't understand much of it, to a large extent because i think it's nonsense, but something else i did find curious.. the king of the north was the soviet union, and the king of the south were the united states.
i am not sure the soviet union is "north" of the united states in any sense (think of alaska), but, that aside, what kind of theological distress resulted when the king of the north crumbled to pieces?

I think it's great that the society can admit they don't know something. It's the best of their doctrines.

1 Say humans are dumb and will screw up
2 Everytime somebody screws up, prophecy fulfilled!
1 Say nations will wage war
2 Everytime a war starts, prophecy fulfilled!
1 Say the sun rises in the morning
2 100% prophecy fulfillment rate!
By the way, how can somebody who is not a prophet still make prophecies?

Help w/ Bible Teach ch 9 section "Major Developments of the Last Days"
by InterestedOne ini'm in ch 9 in my study, and we will go over the section "major developments of the last days" (pars 6-9) next week.
although i don't see anything special in pars 7-9, i think par 6 allows the jw's to strike a chord with people, and i was wondering if anyone could help me with how to respond to it.
they are able to quote real figures in that paragraph such as "three times as many people fell victim to war in [the 20th] century as in all the wars from the first century ad to 1899.".

A blatant society lie. There were many more war related deaths before 1914 than after. Not too mention plagues in the middle ages were terrible, much worse than anything we have ever experienced after 1914. There is also no increase in earthquakes. Famines were also much deadlier before 1914.

Hey God.....
by Mr. Falcon in.... you're gonna kill me at armageddon?
well, go right the freak ahead; you'd be doing me a favor..

A) God is righteous and he will not kill me.
B) God is unrighteous and I'd rather be killed than live an eternity as his slave.
