  perhaps we could post the pictures the wt have presented in their literature that depict their version of paradise here for comment/discussion:.

  from: spirits of the dead​—can they help you or harm you?

  do they really exist?.

  Seriously, though…

  … the moment I realized that the Org fully expected to - for all intents and purposes - rule the world forever after Armageddon and pattern society after their present-day ideology, I felt sick to my stomach…

  …and I was still in at the time.

  No movie theatres… no rock concerts… no pizza… no cheeseburgers… (and maybe no sex)…

  …can’t hardly wait.

  Is 1st Century advice on marriage still relevant in today’s modern world?

  by liam in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  republicans want to make a law that forbids ‘uncontested divorce”.

  they based this on this scripture.. matthew 19. is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason?”.

  4 “haven’t you read,” jesus replied, “that at the beginning the creator ‘made them male and female,’and said, ‘for this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’ so they are no longer two, but one flesh.

  Liam - “Is 1st Century advice on marriage still relevant in today’s modern world?”

  That depends.

  Is modern marriage a form of property ownership?

  Let’s be honest.

  Objectively, all of Watchtower history is pretty fucking odd.

  I always got (privately) depressed when I saw no movie theatres, libraries, or concert halls, or things like steak, pizza, and cheeseburgers.

  ExJW hot takes

  by Jofi_Wofo in

  1. social
  2. humour

  i couldn't find a "hot takes" thread, and i thought it would be fun to start one up.. for those that may not know, a "hot take" is an opinion that is either uncommon or that usually goes unspoken and would likely garner some controversy, or at least a raised eyebrow, when shared with others.

  it could be something serious or it could be something lighthearted.

  it could also be an opinion that's actually quite popular, but often drowned out by a vocal minority.. anyways, i'll get the ball rolling!.
