This Organization is now for the ignorant and willful suckers . . .
Or those "faking it" for the social aspects. Ignore what they say and concentrate on how they live. How many JWs LIVE like "it's right around the corner"?

God won't lift a finger to help you.
by nicolaou insea breeze: @nicolau,i stated my case rather succiently, which you failed to address.
if you have a better solution to the problem of evil than what jesus offers, then why don't you present that in a new topic?.
pathetic diversion.

The cognitive dissonance must be extremely painful that believers have only once recourse:

They are not voting for the person with the best policies for Americans.
Of course they are voting, but Dominion picks which votes to count.

Sad observation
by Gorb inreading about jw.org rules changes these days gives me a sad observation.. everything what "is" today, can be gone tomorrow.. that makes it all worthless.
you were an elder, searching for evidence, and proof to df a person.
because he or she was not humble enough.

Yep! All it will take is another governmental authority threatening their tax exempt status and they'll modify their
procedurelanguage regarding the procedure to attempt tocomplyfind a loophole to the statute. -

We were discussing Gods refusal or inability to come to the aid of people with specific illnesses or those in imminent danger.-- Sea Breeze
Once again we have:
As I stated in the original string of posts that was hijacked,
I would love to see EVIDENCE.
At one time (as a devout JW) I truly believed in God answering prayers. I was many times convinced of my own prayers being answered (getting the result that I wanted).
If you have enough confidence then do as Elijah did (1 Kings 18). Slaughter a bull and place it on an altar and wait for [your] God to consume it with fire (without you striking the match). Are you convinced you would get the same result as did Elijah? Or, would your God leave you standing as Baal did to his worshippers?
PUT UP OR SHUT UP!

How would you rate the Watchtower approved songs?
by Vanderhoven7 ini was asking why jws won't sing any church hymns even if they were doctrinally correct.
jws asked me in response if i would sing any of their songs.. dan watkins wrote .
its a hilarious misunderstanding, if it does not come from the watchtower bible and tract society, then it is effectively considered as coming from satan.

The new songs are like those from a bad Disney movie (that would be any recent Disney movie).

I kinda thought Nic offered the same solution to the problem of evil as does Jesus:
I would love to see EVIDENCE that proves otherwise.

Revisiting this post and catching up on the comments.
I think all the older ones begin to have doubts as they come to see they will not be among "millions now living [who] will never die". They realize all the dates that were promised to them have failed and they too, will die. Younger ones who are still blinded my still believe it will come.....eventually. Older ones who claim they still believe all that nonsense are just not telling the truth. Or they are delusional (still).

Look at the age of a few of them. Thinking of Sam Herd. He has to be approaching 80 (if not already 80). Seems he was already slipping a bit mentally. His health is not good. Of course, they don't have to replace anyone who dies as there is no specific number required. But the fact is, they will all continue to age and eventually become infirm or even die. So yes, they'll have to be replacements. . . . .
. . . . unless, of course, Armageddon really is right around the corner!
