The Most Hypocritical Talk I've ever heard
by javierjiminy in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
pimo filmed a marking talk about him.

crazy how the many of things mentioned are the same thing the borg does, like brainwashing and indoctrinating.

what's crazier is how he's saying to the congregation not to do research or look up bad news articles because they are all "fake news.

so this years convention was all about:.

1) neutrality means not taking sides.

Missing the Memorial first time in 34 years
by oppostate in

my wife has left to pick someone else's bible study half an hours drive north of us to bring them to the kh 20 minutes south of us, and pick up two other people on the way.. this is the first memorial in 34 years that i won't be at the kh to "celebrate".. if i want to "remember" jesus christ sacrifice and his command to keep doing so, i'm doing so on my own terms.

not controlled by a despotic, oligarchical gobo which directs most attending folks to be there but to "skip" the very thing jesus command explicitly mentions to do.

i'm also convinced that it doesn't have to be exactly on the same lunar month evening as the jewish passover, but that "whenever" it is commemorated by someone, with faith in christ, and belief in his promises it would be best to do it not for show or for the sake of appearances but sincerely out of one's feeling of "communion".. if you are a christian believer are you going to the memorial this year?

Has anyone here joined a different church after ditching the JWs?
by NikL in
1. jw
2. friends
i am just curious.. i have a cousin who is a baptist and his church streams their sunday services and i've been checking them out before i go to meeting with my jw wife.. i haven’t been to a church except for the occasional funeral and wedding and the only sermons i had heard were the tel-evangelist type.

anyway, all the church bashing by jws over the years made me unsure what to expect and i was pleasantly surprised.

they do use the bible and they don't spend the whole time begging for money.

Why are the atheists on this site so hateful?
by HopeEverLasting in
1. jw
2. friends
all us creationists try to do is offer true evidence that the one and only god is out there watching and looking down on us.

we present that certain scientists know the truth about god and that he is everything that we see from trees, life, weather, the air we breath, and even the most simple molecules.

but of course you atheists reject it because it is your nature to not be humble and see god because you want to rule your own life.
