  I was a born again christian (during 4 weeks) after my exit from WT.

  But I can wear my rusty christian armor and my big shiny faith shield sometimes.

  But don't take my speech as a sattire, christians really believe and "think" in this way.

  It's useless to discuss with people like that, they don't want know about anything and just want some huge attention due to the lack of attention from their GOOOOD. It's an interesting state of conscience just like a synthetic LSD. You really feel special and confident when you act like a born again christian zealot. Christians are addicted to this brain sensation and can't do nothing to stop it. It's creepy when you think people with power in hands are addicted to this stuff.

  Jesus give me answer for the existence of evil. And He spoke with me when I studied the chemistry of atoms. The perfect design and the interaction of particles proves to me God have no connection with evil. When I see the wonders of quantum reality I know evil does not exist, because God have a Master Plan for all of us. Someday God will erase all memories we have about evil and will distort time and space where bad things happened and no evil will reach our hearts. God will erase evil from every spacetime intersection of this universe. There's a prophecy about that in revelation book. But one must have faith in The Blood.

  I always thought about some drastic change in field service, but now I think it will never change (stop) because is a Sisyphus task.

  I don't think they will change anything about the blood. The doctrine already is a mess and almost every JW knows it's already a kind of conscience.

  I think they must change the 144K doctrine, there's no way to go on with that. They will never speak again about the trumpets and conventions, that's so embarassing. The entire revelation book is a hot potato.

  I think they are heading to a more cultish form than a mainstream one. And the reason beyond that is the GB 2.0 wants to be cult rock stars. And will be worse when they completly leave Brooklin.

  Jesus speaks to me with the pure language of love. Only the meek ones understands his calling. Repent yourself before Him and He'll speaks to you and will wash all your sins in his Blood.

  Peace and Love and Holy Kiss.

  The Face of the World is changing

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. social
  2. current

  60 years ago, in the western world, it was rare to see in media, any representation of a face that wasn't euro-white.

  these days, in response to market driven advertising, that is changing.. i can only speak for oz, and here i note that it is now quite common to see an asian face, most likely east asian (chinese, korean, vietnamese and japanese) in adverts.

  for various products.

  By inspiration Jesus speaks all The Truth into every heart of those who love Him, because He is the Way and the Life.

  (Are you referring to the fact that he doesn't re-tell the gospel stories that were already well known to his audience? )

  Gospels came after, nobody knew what was a gospel.

  Millions die in Natural disasters - God is doing nothing. Do I adopt Anthropomorphism to him?

  by KateWild in

  i do not think god is a'morphic.

  god is not human, so hence he does not possess human characteristics, to know god better and to understand him better i study science.

  there has been a new discovery of strange signals picked up from black holes and distant supernovae suggest there's more to space-time than einstein believed.

  God = good+omnipotent+omniscient+omnipresent

  God + evil = fatal error.

  Evil = exists.

  God = does not exist.

  If evil exists, God cannot exist. Evil exists.

  You cannot beat logic. You just can blind yourself.

  Did Jesus and Gautama Buddha preach a similar message?

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are many similarities in the stories attached to both the buddha (the one born in lumbini, nepal) and jesus, even though buddha lived in the 6th c/bce and jesus in the 1st c/ce.

  this video compares some aspects of their teachings.. the text attached to the video states:.

  buddha searched for the truth.

  Probably Jesus went to desert to meditate and not pray. If you read the account it's very strange to think in prayers but the things go easy when you think in meditation (and hallucinations).
