i was never a jdubb, only a bible student.
there are two main questions i have.
let me preface that by saying that i do not believe the bible is true, or the word of god.
waton - "...they are led carefully into the trap of controlled thinking..."
Not to mention that the Org does a first-rate job of making you feel like a complete moron if you don't come to the conclusion they want you to.
waton - "It is a circular argument to try to will the truth onto a matter by the delusion of so many..."
Insightful.
If they believe it hard enough, it'll become real.
Textbook magical thinking.
has anyone heard any word on active witnesses inside the ukraine and what has been happening with them the last week or so?
i checked the official org website but there was just the expected "fulfilling bible prophecy" stuff.
perhaps someone here has bethel contacts who have leaked some info on what the gb is trying to do for these victims of putin's madness?.
inbetween - "For JW (not only them) its very simple: Anything positive = Gods blessing, anything negative = Satans attack..."
"Everything is proof we're right!
Even the stuff that contradicts the other stuff!!!"
watchtower 1954 p.511 "why do watchtower publications now show jesus with short hair and no beard?
because he is shown that way in older representations of him that are older then the traditional effeminate looking pictures.".
watchtower 1968 p.286 "bible evidence and a recent review shows that jesus did have a beard..." charles russell style of beard was popular at bethel...till rutherford took over.
More often than not, a well-kept beard improves a man's appearance.
And I have long suspected (even way back when I was still in) that the Org doesn't really want its members to be too pretty.
if that had occured wouldn't that have given us confidence and faith for when the big one comes?
just sayin'.
nowwhat? - "So why didn't Jehovah/ GB/ watchtower warn the brothers in Ukraine to get out before before the war started?"
As if they'd know in the first place.
With their track record, the WTS couldn't accurately predict a fucking coin toss.
for all the conspiracy theorists out there.... is klaus schwab the most dangerous man in the world?.
All hail the Neworldordereptilianuminati!!!
the jw memorial takes place in 5 weeks time, and kh meetings resume on april 1st.. the worldwide campaign for spectators will kick off soon, so here are 3 questions to help jw's see the org's myth that their g.b.
is going to be amongst a crowd of 144,001 melchizedek king/priests in heaven.. 1) a ransom only buys back what has been lost, so what exactly did adam lose?.
2) how can jesus' ransom correspond with what adam lost, if it buys back far more than what was lost?.
BoogerMan - "Governing Body NOT going to heaven..."
Fuck, no.
In fact, ten bucks says Rutherford and Jaracz are cellmates in Hell.
a verse constantly plucked from context by witnesses is john 10:16. they use it to prove that there are two classes of christian.. and i have other sheep i have other sheep, which are not of this fold: those also i must bring and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd.. the this fold say witnesses are anointed christians and the other sheep are christians with an earthly hope.. read the text carefully and in context, and i challenge anyone to be able to prove that.. in chapter 9 jesus heals a man born blind.
this infuriates the pharisees who then attack the healed man and threaten him with being expelled from the synagogue.
the man will not recant and is thrown out.. jesus finds him and asks him to be his follower.
awake 12/8 p.11 "since the release of the movie the excorsist some years ago many reports are on file of the adverse effects on those who saw it...mareen was an atheist who went to see it saying it was the most terrifying thing i had ever seen.
i was shaking all over.
during the coming weeks i was frightened to go to bed.
Foolednomore - "I seen the movie over a hundred times...."
"...and it keeps gettin' funnier, every single time I see it!!!"
i find it refreshing to step away from all that tower crap from time to time!.
100+ of the greatest canadian rock artists of all time!.
it is no surprise to see the name "neil young" listed as number 1.. .
Can't believe Honeymoon Suite, Haywire, and Harem Scarem didn't make the list.
yep, the vacation is over, it's time to go to work------for free!
ðŸ˜ðŸ˜¢ðŸ˜“😰😡.

Maybe some smartass at WTHQ tried to jump the gun on April Fools Day.
