now that we are all thinking about jw memorial - i was just remembering all the silly superstitions the jws have put around this - their only holiday.
as far as i can tell, none of these are actually biblical:.
1) - it must be held only once per year.. 2) - it must be held on "nisan 14".. 3) - it must be held after sundown.. 4) - the bread must be unleavened.. 5) - the wine must be plain (not fortified) red wine.
I always wondered why the Brothers who were passing the Crackers (Bread) and Wine.... why they had to sit after handling the Emblems and pass them again...Haven't they already passed them???
Very Pagan like and Unchristian acting like False Religion Having an Obvious Ceremonial Practice.
Damn I'm repeating and I did read all Posts.......
See what can happen while your collecting your thoughts while posting LOL
Sorry about that
actually i thought about making a thread called, "to the rational and non-delusional of jwn" but realized it wouldn't get too many hits, so instead i've created a thread for all those conspiracy theorists, doomsday sayers, christ complexers and the just plain ole batshit nuts.. this thread is for you....
Oh No You've done it Now Undercover....
Prepare to be attacked ...
I saw this last week....I'm outta here ...BYE
i feel nothing towards you at all!.
the same goes for christians, pagans, buddhists, moslems and hindus..
Don't forget those Stinking Druids!!!
remember the story of the ark of the covenant on the wagon and it started to fall and one of the men grabbed it so as not to have it fall on the ground and it's contents spill on the ground...... what happened...oh yeah jah stuck him dead!!
for touching it.... i remember the wts saying it was disrespectful to have it on a wagon..... so much for slow to anger lol!.
Touch his junk MS LMAO!!!
YB. So yeah, what's your problem with that.....
Good point YB I forgot about that formula to determine " How was that in God's Eyes" LOL
Like When Jesus was dead for 3 days Jehovah must of been devastated cause it seemed like ....wait not even 1 second? If a Day in God's eye is a 1000 yrs in man's.
He really could sympathize with mankind when they lose a Loved One Huh?
LOL yes great minds

few other legends are so well known, or read so often, and yet remain.
so poorly understood.
if you read the account in 1st and 2nd.
Again another of those stories I believed as Gospel as a JW.
Today...what was I thinking...... How could I for a second think this was true.
Sounds like Troy with Brad Pitt
i for my part do not believe there is a satan the devil.
he does not exist.
there is a creator, but no oposite number, no satan.
When I was a JW I was terrified of Satan and the Demons. Watched what we bought used ect.....
Today No ....No fear no Belief either.
In fact the story of the Evil one taken that many Angels with him......
Means 1 thing....
Satan was on to something!!!!!!
ok i'm sure this has been talked to death... but since we have a thread saying we're missing a good debate here we go..... when the bible meant something to me way back when .....even then i pondered.... god starts off as this vengeful being..."listen to me or i'll lay your soul to waste".
to his enemies ....keep your distance or you will feel the wrath of yahweh or if i want what you have ....best leave now unless any of you men wanna die.
then overnight.. he is patient, loving, kind, his son says love they neighbor.
I will admit the New Test. is nothing but Jesus' story told 4 times ...then a couple stories after he dies ...then lots of Letters.
Oz i think your right sounds like a New Religion...
We should rip that section right out LOL
And isn't it true that most of the time when a Son takes over Dad's Buisness......
He runs it right into the ground and everyone Mumbles.....
You should've of seen what this thing was way back when!!

Jwfacts.... I don't personally think of Jesus as God in the NT....
And those Scrips. are good ...but they are merely Threats ...not action like the God of the OT.
The God of Moses was ALL Action just ask Egypt....
Why the change of wait and you'll see.. His warnings of Old were meant with SWIFT action......
NT God..... those Threats are what Over 2000 yrs old ?

Skeeter sounds like the song Dear God by xtc from the 80's
