  do you remember the time when every watchtower article seemed like a boasting session?

  how great watchtower was.

  they we're the only one with holy spirit.

  At this point, the entire WTHQ is made of figurative glass.

  If they're still dumb enough to chuck stones, that's on them.

  Can Jehovah's Witnesses explain the overlapping generation?

  by pistolpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i found this interesting topic on the current views among jws regarding the overlapping generation.. the posts are hilarious.

  how do most jehovah's witnesses explain the overlapping generation?.

  i've asked a couple of jws to explain the overlapping generation and they directed me to the website jw------org.. either they don't know, or they do know but don't want to discuss it because they know it's bogus and embarrassing.. either way, surely they must know that this just extended the last days another 80 years from the time fred franz died.

  Jeezus, are they still trying to use that?

  You'd think the WTS's lawyers would have figured out it doesn't work, by now.

  Watchtower Dishonesty aka Theocratic Warfare

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i would like to collect as many instances of watchtower dishonesty and pretense as possible.

  here is one from a bulgarian as an example of what i'm looking for.. are jehovah's witnesses disfellowshipped for receiving blood in a hospital?.

  helge fauskanger writes: "if witnesses can’t convince the elders that they are utterly “repentant” for this vampiric lapse of theirs, they will be held to have disassociated themselves from the religion — even if they never said a word about wanting to leave it!

  Vidqun - "To explain Revelation, Daniel's input would be needed."

  My dad used to say the same thing.

  Makes me think of legacy sequels to classic movie franchises...

  ...good luck understanding them if you haven't seen the original.

  Smiles - "Two insiders have separately remarked that behind the HQ curtain Mark Sanderson is wresting greater internal dominance within the JW organisation, steering hard turns by well-crafted agenda... For reasons yet to be fully understood (beyond stamina factors) the senior brass have yielded Sanderson unusual latitude in some strategic areas of organisational command that are expected to further modify the religion's profile, and significantly impact lives of PIMI membership... Sanderson may appear jolly, but he is also cunning."

  Huh.

  Wouldn't have thought that by the look of 'im.

  Isn’t JW’s teaching of “the abomination that causes desolation” wrong?

  by Abraham1 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  what “the abomination that causes desolation” mentioned in mathew 24:15 means could be understood only by close followers of jesus because it was part of his personal discussion with them.

  by stopping to greet those whom they consider as “their enemies” jws are identifying themselves as “pagans,” according to jesus.

  (mathew 5:43-48) thus they cannot correctly understand what the abomination that causes desolation” that would appear as part of signs of “last days.”.

  "Midnight Mass" on Netflix

  by smiddy3 in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  i watched the 7 part series and finished today .what struck me about the show was how one could cherry pick scriptures to believe whatever you want to believe.. the use of scriptures to back up the beliefs was in my mind an eye opener.. ok so it was over the top and a horror supernatural series with a bit of blood and gore,and if your a bit squeamish about that sort of thing close your eyes till those parts are over .. but what i found fascinating ,intriguing,was how one of the main characters used scriptures to enforce her understanding of how they applied to the here and now of the series.. cherry picking of scriptures to believe what you want to believe,with a little help from a priest ,pastor ,organization.. i would recommend it ,as you can easily see how, their are now more than 40,000 different christian sects in the world including the mainstream ones who believe they only have the "truth".. i welcome your thoughts if you have seen it.. ps.

  obviously their are no jw`s on this island ..

  Terrific show.

  My daughter (who's a major horror geek) and I have been Mike Flanagan fans for a while now.

  If anyone's interested in checking out some of his other stuff, there's The Haunting of Hill House (also on Netflix), and a movie called Oculus.
