jw magazines have claimed the flood story has so much detail that it couldn’t be just a made up story.. is it detailed?
name one person outside of noah’s family.
name one nephilim.
enigma - JW magazines have claimed the flood story has so much detail that it couldn’t be just a made up story.
Well, they would. The Jobots will agree without question. They really are good little sheeple, aren't they. Brainwashing from the Corporation(tm) has worked wonders.
As long as TOMO can get his whiskey and stay drunk, slurring his words and staggering about, the Corporation(tm) will continue to spew it's excrement.
i am now in my early 60’s.
i was baptized in 1980. i served as a ministerial servant and an elder.
i gave my all for many years but about eight years ago i started to question many things.
Newy - It is with profound sadness that I look back on my life as a Witness and now I am basically a non-entity
This is how I have felt.
My story in a nutshell. Born into the cult. Pioneered. Minny man then Elder. As an Elder I realised it was just a cult. A dangerous one at that. Because I didn't want to be a Jobot anymore, my wife left me with 2 of the 3 kids. 1 was a minor. It was hell!
She's now re-married to another Jobot....not sure if it was 'approved(tm)' by the cult because there was hardly anyone at the wedding, I'm told.
Here I am, a non entity. Nearly retired. Single. No prospect of it changing at my age because I basically don't trust relationships anymore.
So. What do I do?
I go to work full time. I play in a fairly successful local band where the Covid over-reaction by Government thing has destroyed many venues where we used to play. I am in a local Viking re-enactment group.
I have lovely grandkids. 3 speak Polish as a 2nd language. Another one on the way.
Somehow, none of this seems enough.
It is with profound sadness that I look back on my life as a Witness and now I am basically a non-entity.................like you said.
now that it's all but over, looks like jehovah's fast moving chariot pulled in the station 2 years too late!😂.
WTW - Are you sure that chariot isn't being drink-driven?
another example of jehovah protects his people except when he doesn't.

I'm very sad to hear about this. A life lost. Someone who had the best of intentions but is now gone.
I thought I'd heard of another story like this too.
Of course, the Watchtower Corporation(tm) will not care one iota. As long as TOMO3rd can drink his whiskey and stagger around all day slurring his words in a drunken stupor, the Corporation(tm) won't care.
It saddens me, it honestly does.
my first week of posts here were very serious and all the wonderful, encouraging replies helped me very much.. so now i want to ask something semi-frivolous.
(actually it's one of the many things that don't make sense to me about "the truth").
why do animals die?.
think people do not believe in God, religion or sin.
somehow, that makes more sense to me.
The rest is
in reading about the 54 year old man being shot, i was wondering if any of you were ever shot at, or threatened with a gun.. i was in a car group where a woman came out waving around, telling us to get off her land.
in another situation a man told the car group to turn and leave or he was calling the cops.
.
I was wondering if any of you were ever shot at
Blimey, no. Not on your nelly. Here in the UK the gun laws are very different, especially after the 'Dunblane Massachre'.
I'm so likeable, no one would even swear at me.
not much but the zombies usually where better clothes.
zombies use more of thier brain.. those were the ones i could think anything else?.
I can't watch Zombie films/shows anymore. They are all so darned boring now.
Just like the JWs.
hi friends , i thought i would just let you know it`s my wife and i, 62nd wedding anniversary today.. not that we were able to celebrate much as my wife wasn`t up to it today .. however i did manage to give her a couple of champers at home ,while i had a couple o ales with friends down at the club and managed to put on lotto for tonite and a couple of keno`s from the club ,you never know the god`s might smile upon us for doing something right after all these years.?.
take care guys.. smiddy 3.
Happy anniversary to the Smidsters.
assuming that you don't dismiss genesis outright as a collection of myths, i was musing about the actions of god as recorded in genesis 11:1-9 regarding the building of the tower of babel.. this origin story for the multiplicity of languages in the earth has god getting annoyed with humans for staying in one location instead of filling out across the whole world.. yahweh could have stopped the tower being built by collapsing it by means of an earthquake, sinking sand, or an extreme gale.
even using an angel to kick it over when everyone was tucked up in bed asleep.
but no, instead he muddles up the vocabulary and grammar and made brand new languages creating division and confusion.. what's more he didn't scatter them and send them off in mixed multicultural groups, but instead he lets them wander off in tribes and family groups.
punkofnice...you don't believe it,
No. You're correct, Nuffy, I don't.
he has a plan to take the whole system down.
I should think Biden and Putin are more likely to do that if they start tossing nukes at each other.
The way human society has gone, there seems little evidence for a bloke in the sky anymore.
breaking news!
every jehovah’s witness elder in the 67 counties of pennsylvania are being given notice by state attorney's office to turn over any & all documents relating to child sex abuse cases!
watch attached video beginning at time-stamp 101:00...pay particular attention to what is said after 103:00.this is wild!.
We all hope that the latest 'scandal' (for want of a better word), will see the doom of the Watchtower Corporation(tm)........but it never is!
They might lose some Whiskey money to keep TOMO 'as a newt' and slurring his words as he speaks his vile filth.....and that's about it.
I'm sorry, you're in for a long wait geezers and geezeresses.
