  JWs Not Allowed to Post on Websites?

  by StandFirm in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this seems to be a favorite topic to bring up to any witnesses who post on any website where there are any opposers, either here or topix or anywhere.. so, here is the one and only place i will be discussing it.

  who can prove that witnesses are specifically told not to post on websites about them?.

  Sounds like a typical jw:

  Reads one thing but sees another.

  Ask yourself: why is the Greek economy in such a mess?

  Different cultures have different mentalities. It can be infuriating.

  That Middle Finger

  by prophecor in

  1. social
  2. humour

  thru out history, has there ever been a time when throwing up that middle finger ever meant anything positive?

  me thinks its been universally a bad sign from day one.

  have you ever wondered?.

  Citation from above link:

  the English won a major upset and began mocking the French by waving their middle fingers at the defeated French, saying, "See, we can still pluck yew!"

  Is this also the origin of another popular expression?

  How do they count their hours here?

  Maybe the time logged on divided by the members of the GB?

  Oops. I've just given them 30secs for the month of May.

  It hurts to see one of ours feeling like this D.

  Already, you can see that happiness dosn't lie with jws.

  You do need to seek help from a councelor, as many have said.

  Its scarery, but do it. Its one thing you won't ever regret.

  Good luck, D.

  An interesting citation

  Many pagan religions profaned blood by the way they used it. For instance it has been the view of many in occultic religions in both ancient and modern times that if you would eat animal, or even human, flesh while it was still living you would receive in yourself the strength, or life force, of the thing being eaten. This was the reason why God placed such a restriction on Noah and Israel.

  The bible says nothing about blood transfusions either. Only eating blood is forbidden.

  Thank you for the post. I have a preference, myself, for logical arguements over doctrinal discussions, often left

  over to interpretation.

  How much do you truly believe you would enjoy living in a perfect world? Paradise...

  by stillstuckcruz in

  2. beliefs

  what sort of conversations could you have in a perfect world?

  i have a hard enough time creating conversation in this world.

  when i need a conversation topic, i might mention a news story, or some problem such as the price of gas.

  How are you? (never need to ask that in the new system!)

  Its nice today isn't it? (It will always be nice)

  Have you heard the latest... ( gossipers will be struck dead!)
