  Maybe they are linking the Attack of Gog with the technological singularity.

  Gog is Skynet. Gog is Google.

  Artificial intelligence is the antichrist!

  Who is Gog of Magog? - Watchtower May 2015

  by jwleaks in

  here we go again... let's study... news report... comment.... who is gog of magog mentioned in the book of ezekiel?.

  for a number of years, our publications have explained that gog of magog is the name given to satan the devil after his ouster from heaven.

  this explanation was based on the fact that the book of revelation identifies satan the devil as the leader of the worldwide attack on gods people.

  can there really be any doubt now on how commercial it is?

  if you thought the new kh design seemed commercial in nature, now imagine one of those halls turned into a jw store.

  we know they exist.

  Something unbelievable in the 90's...

  I remember a JW in the 90's who had this same idea and the elders quickly silenced him.

  question: should able-bodied actors play characters with disabilities?.

  i got myself into a bit of a quandary over a discussion on a facebook group.

  it was partly based on this article in the guardian:.

  Jehovah's Witnesses are NOT a Cult......so they say.

  by Tenacious in

  trying to develop a good strategy for relatives still partially indoctrinated by this despicable inhumane cult.

  i researched their own material and i found some good info on how they don't mind control anyone.

  the following unedited information was sourced from their february 15, 1994 watchtower p. 5-7. i've highlighted some sentences that we all know are lies and a distortion of the reality of their community:.

  When I was a dub I accepted the term cult because the bible says the early christianity was labelled as a cult. 

  And in my mind I thought a cult was an unregistered religion or illegal. I knew in some countries they were truly illegal so I thought that was the cause of the cult status in people's mind.

  And I accepted the fact the JW must be persecuted and ridiculed. The old persecution card...

  But I wonder how could be my reaction if I  was told about the mechanisms of thought control in my uber dub days...

  Andromeda awaits the "Great Crowd of Other Sheep"

  by Doug Mason in

  2. bible

  the great crowd, the other sheep will live forever on planet earth.. years will move from centuries, millennia, and millions of years to billions of years.

  after 4 billion years, the sky will fill as their milky way galaxy and its neighbouring andomeda galaxy collide, with amazing changes in gravitational forces.

  what an amazing sight!.

  And thus said Jehovah: 'galaxies stand still'.

  Problem solved.

  meditation slows age-related loss of grey matter in the brain, finds a new study.
