YHWH a minor pagan god: Ugaritic Texts and the Sons of El

by DoomVoyager in

Somebody posted a video (not sure if it was 100% accurate, but interesting none-the-less) that discussed how the Israelites used to have many Gods but for whatever reason, their war God Yahweh won out in the end. Through editing text and writing after the fact in the name of others, it was made to seem as if Yahweh was THE God of the Israelites. Yahweh was actually just one of the Pagan Gods adopted by the Israelites.

IT'S OFFICIAL - I LEFT THE BORG!

by doubtful in

i had my "awakening" about a year ago, after spending my entire adolescent life feeling as if i was the only one among my associates with my head screwed on straight.

i was appalled by the nearly universal ignorance and deplorable close-mindedness and stupidty of the jws, the arbitrary dismissal of all scientific evidence as mere "human speculation", etc.

the 2008 change in the definition of the "generation" (at age 18) is what made me seriously commit to an investigation of my long held beliefs, a belief system and world view that had been permanently graphed onto my still developing brain as an infant.. some things the bee hive subscribe to are so irrational, yet i still held firmly to the belief that they must have the "truth", since i still believed in the bible as the inerrant, completely inspired word of god, and jws were the religion that most stringently adhered to actual bible teachings in a majority of cases - ie - no hellfire, no immortal soul, no trinity, etc... after an exhaustive study of the organization's origins in the russell and rutherford eras, and their history of constantly revised doctrines, failed predictions, and absurd beliefs subsequently abandoned and revised only after the passing of time deemed them impossible, i came to the conclusion that they were not "god's channel", and they certainly had no claim to exclusivity as "god's only chosen people who would survive destruction".... so that lead me to the next logical assumption..if not even the jws have the truth, and all the other christian denominations grossly misrepresent biblical teachings and distort the teachings of christ, and compromise on the principles he taughts us to abide by...then god has no earthly organization..he has abandoned us to our own devices...he has left us all alone, and he has left us in this state of affairs for at least the last 2,000 years... after moving beyond the the typical jw dismisal of all science that could possibly contradict the bible and their beliefs, i took up an objective, unbiased, study of science...and what i discovered is that without any presupositional limitations to one's critical analysis of the fact...science's theory of evolution is the best explanation for the diversity and nature of biological life around us...i also discovered that although there is dispute among scientists as to the explanation for evolution or the origin of life itself...that there is no dispute as to the validity of evolution.. the fact that evolution happened and continues to happen before our very eyes is incontrovertible...absolutely indisputable when objectively evaluating all the mountains of evidence..multiple lines of evidence that all converge at one point...common descent..as but one example - the anatomical distinction between homo sapiens sapiens and homo sapien neanderthalis emerge at a certain point in the fossil record..and not coincidentally the mapping of the neanderthal and modern human genomes point to a genetic divergence at the exact same time as the fossil record indicates!.

Welcome Doubtful

Thank you so much for your story, which was written extremely well by the way. Your story touched me.

It's been a year for me as well, things are better and other things need time to settle down. So you’re only 19... well well what can I say but 'I ENVY YOU', to find this all out so early is beyond words. I wasted 30 years in the cult (I'm 40). Your whole life awaits you. In years to come you'll look back and realise what a turning point in your life it was to have awakened from this religion! All the best :)

Glad you found us here.

Gods Kingdom of a Thousand Years Has Approached (ka) PDF

by Yomax in

can anyone help me here?

i just started reading don cameron's book and this would be helpful in my research..

3Mozzies

Scroll down midway till you come to the section dealing with literature from the 70s.

Use your bottom scroller to go to the extreme right and locate a publication entitled:

YMSAIGNW

Sorry moggy lover but the book YMSAIGNW is You May Survive Armageddon into God's New World - and is not God’s Kingdom of a Thousand Years Has Approached.

Great website link anyway

Paul (JWFacts) wrote: The Herald Sun will follow up on the story depending on the amount of publicity this first article generates. To assist get the views up click on the options at the bottom of the article to "share" it and "like" it on facebook.

I agree. We ALL need to do this, if the paper thinks this story is of no interest to the public it might drop it.

Good idea Paul

Its official, call me Mr Apostate from now on

by Joey Jo-Jo in

i overheard a conversation from my family, jw's are shunning me, but the best part is i am not a jw, never been bathtised, just a born in who woke up in his early thirties.

the reasoning behind it was something i did, it wasn't fornication because im still a virgen, it wasn't stealing, killing or praying to false gods, drinking or anything that the bible defines as sin, im not even the going out type, i dont have many friends, never been reprove or did anything to set a bad example (i was your typical jw) no no no, it was a book, it was sending an email to a family member who happens to be jw with the shephearding the flock ppf.. this book was a huge shock to the person, eventually it raised questions and spread around, eventually this went full circle back at me, my parents already concerned for some time has asked brothers to see if they can fix my reasoning so i can be brainwashed again and give them money to some rich guys in brooklyn who dont have any ethical responsibilities towards others.

i wanted my parents to do this, i want them to see what the brothers will do and say about me, thinking and hopping, that some day they will wake up from their long sleep.

Good for you Joey

By sending the Elders Manual around it might eventually help someone wake up and leave the cult! Bravo!
