  WTS is going down: Illusion or Reality?

  by Martini in

  hi folks,.

  it appears that the tides are turning upon the wts.

  judging by recent child abuse cases, un scandal and blood doctrine change that the wts is being exposed and that the rest of the world is taking note.

  it is estimated that working women will on a yearly basis spend approximately $5,800.00 to adorn themselves, perhaps a breakdown is as follows:.

  1. cosmetic stuff ( make up ) approx $500.00.

  2. hair care approx $800.00.

  In all honesty,...Honesty sucks!

  by Martini in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  greetings friends,.

  i have just filed my income taxes and it got me thinking about the whole "true christians are to be honest in all things" mindset.

  although i commend the jw religion for advocting honesty in all things for me this was a very challenging and exhausting experience.. for many years i was self-employed and finally gave up the business world because it became very difficult to survive without resorting to some unscrupulous business dealings.

  i was a regular poster here from the start of this board while witnesses.net and the original h20 were still active.

  i say this not to boast in any way but to make a point and an observation.

  World View

  by Martini in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hello friends,.

  has the 'world view' you once held as a jw ,benefiting you as live your life today in this 'system of things'?.

  i'm not certain if the question is clear but this is my response.. before studing with jw, my world view was that this life may very well have been all there is.

  ARE we The Seed of Satan?

  by Martini in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  how do you react when the brothers are quick to point out that the error of those in the org.

  today who 'shrink back' on their faith and obedience to the faithful and discreet slave class are the seed of satan and rebels similar to korah ,dathan and abiram also miriam.

  the inference is that the fate or end result for todays rebels will be similar to that of those rebels of old where they incurred 'god's wrath' upon themselves and their offsping which led to god's annihilation?.

  ATTENTION Lurking Jehovah's Witnesses.

  by Martini in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  dear fellow jw's,.

  visiting this board and briefly viewing some of the comments here your probably wondering if this db is pro or anti-jw.. your probably asking yourself is this board for active, 'loyal' jehovah's witnesses?.

  i'm not sure i can speak on behalf of the posters at this db, however from my perspective i will "try" to set this matter straight for you.. are those posting here current jw's or are they hiding that they are apostates?.

  WHY does God fail to...

  by Martini in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ...attain unanimous support from his creation of free moral agents?

  from the majority at least.. apparently according to the wt interpretation of god's own book...a prominent spirit creature who made himself satan became unsatisfied and left god.later untold numbers would join the devil.. now the only solution for the future of these 'rebels' would be for god to destroy them.. then the very first human creatures apparently also felt unsatisfied and withdrew from god.they got destroyed.. later god had to confuse the language of all humans because they were unanimously opposed to god.

  those people too are history.. then god had an ark built because all flesh had left god's way except for a handful of people.. evidently god was not expecting any great number to actually join noah, otherwise god would have had noah build several arks!
