  Wow....Even after being away from them for 2 years I still felt bad for them. I still wanted to be humble picturing myself right there with you. I wanted to be humble and take their counsel and give them a big hug. I need more balls I suppose. I am currently hiding from my elders.

She was so flushed she answered I was at home when Elder Owl asked about me. I call him Elder Owl because he looks like an old hoot! He looks just like the owl from the Secret of Nimh! Now a month later they knock on my door today! We didn´t answer but man...

  i wanted to start a thread about the most disturbing quotes that you all have found in watchtower publications.

  i just came across this one when responding to another thread.

  i'm sure there are many more disturbing quotes out there.

  But You are quoting one from 1900. The WT CD certainly doesn´t go back that far. See when I was active and apostates did this....I thought they were making it up. Unless they posted an actual scan from the magazine it is all hearsay. The witness mind will not accept it. It was ONLY after I saw REAL scans then the veil could be lifted. I just think it would help your cause to post them. I will look for the 1900 one on JWfacts. If I cannot find it then....

  Don´t you guys think it would pack more of a punch to see a photocopy of the actual article rather than just quoting it?

  You guys do know that this is what Witnesses preach right? The stripping of the harlot etc. By taxation? Why would you want one of the Witnesses prophecies to come true is beyond me!

  Opening the bible at random - once spoken of approvingly, now superstitious!

  by cedars in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the latest december 15th study edition of the watchtower opens with an intriguing article entitled "beware of superstitious use of the bible".. as an example of what constitutes "superstitious use" of the bible, it has this to say.... .

  "perhaps a more common misuse of the bible is the practice of bibliomancy.

  it refers to opening at random a book, often the bible, and reading the text that first meets the eye in the belief that those words will provide needed guidance.

  Were dinosaurs part of a pre-Adamic "paradise"?

  by M.J. in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the wts seems to affirm a lot that adam's blunder really screwed up the earth, and that the earth was not meant to be this place full of killing, disease, death, pain, etc.. but according to the wts version of the story, did god create the earth with these types of features before adam even came on the scene?

  the wts does not deny the existance of dinosaurs, who in their words were created prior to mankind during the 5th or 6th symbolic day-ages.

  yet its clear from fossilized remains that dinosaurs killed each other, had a high mortality rate, often died young, suffered from disease such as cancerous tumors: .

  One of my best friends says that Jehovah created dinosaurs so that we as humans today could have oil. Now I know how ridiculous he is...
