Well folks it looks like September 23, 2017 will be the new date of Armageddon, the Rapture or whatever.

by donny in

well folks you had better get your act together because there is only about 2.5 years before you are held responsible for your way of life.

according to "rapture watch", things are really going to start happening in 2017.. i am already asking the lord for leniency.

GB says, "Our way of worship will soon be altered."

by Separation of Powers in

my mom called me yesterday to ask how i was doing.

i hadn't seen her in a while, so it was nice to hear her voice.

we went through the motions of jw small talk and then she started telling me about her co visit from last week.

If you live near the Bowers Museum, Santa Ana, California, you may like to visit this exhibition

by fulltimestudent in

in 1986, workman near the chinese city of chengdu (in sichuan province) dug up some 200 relics of an unknown civilisation:.

the bronze castings showed a high level of technical skill, but interestingly there was also this:.

elephants in china, and important to the elite that ordered the fabrication of the masks, some obviously large enough to be fitted to an elephant's head?

Happy at Bethel. Can't believe what I'm seeing.

by Pubsinger in

apologies if this has already been posted but i am speechless.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnbmyudrwgs&x-yt-ts=1422327029&x-yt-cl=84838260#t=72.

I don't think them resorting to "wordly things" is anything new. How many times have we heard about bethelites drinking and partying. A lot of that has to be overlooked or forgiven more often than not. Otherwise they would lose a lot more yp a lot more often.

No Natural Affection

by Sail Away in

do you remember how the wt society likes to quote the scriptures that say "the love of the greater number will cool off" in "the last days" and men will have "no natural affection"?

they applied this to "worldly people".

even before my exit i, used to think that scripture applied to members of the "christian congregation" too.. i haven't written to my jw mil in about a year and a half.

Wow! sail Away, that is tough. I applaud your husband for continuing to make contact. Even though it probably will never change anything I do believe it is something he will never regret. Peace to you all and congrats on your grand baby .

oH mY sTARS! Okay so the old teaching was that all the anointed were feeding the domestics?
It has been so long since I bought into all their crap I can't remember anymore.

Old light = old truth

new light = new truth

Seriously! Anyone with half a brain needs to wake up and get the hell out of there!

I could just hear/see Jesus Jesus say to them "job well done!" "Here are all my belongings since you did such a terrific job protecting my sheep." Yeah right! These idiots are no better than the pharisees of the bible Jesus condemned. Money grabbers and pedophile protectors that they are!!!

This religion is nothing but a sad joke. I feel bad for the poor delusional dubs at least the good-hearted ones.

Unbelievable crap they are still selling! Uhg!

I don't get it. Weren't the F&DS always the governing body? What is new? And when exactly did Jesus say this would happen in 1919? What a freakin joke!!!

No knowledge of settlements, and no curiosity, either

by SoJo16 in

i spent this last weekend with my mother, who is still in.

the local newspaper ran a headline about child abuse by a priest, and she made a comment about the priests abusing kids again.

without missing a beat, i said 'haven't you all been settling a lot of child sex abuse claims yourselves?

They really love to take digs at the Catholic Church. My family does the same thing. My brother does it all the time in his "wonderful" public talks. Total ass!!!!
