Do You Think The Witnesses Actually Know What They Believe In?

by minimus in

i think they know what they don't believe in, like no blood, no hellfire, no trinity....but they really couldn't explain what their beliefs are and why they believe as they do.

do you agree?

Lied2NoMore

They don't have to....its all about regular meeting attendance...go in service as much as you can....give money to worldwide work....doctrines and teachings are too much to think about...

Head Gasket Sorted - with pics

by cofty in

ok if you clicked on this you might be a mechanical geek like me.

some people love buying shoes or handbags for me is shiny new tools.. for the last few weeks the head gasket has been blowing on my rover 214. fortunately the oil and water hasn't been mixing so no harm done.

the combustion gases have been blowing through the water jacket which made it sounded like a witches cauldron.

Jehovahs mighty hand and his holy spirit surely helped you complete these needed repairs........no doubt Satan and his demon hordes caused the failure and contributed to the design flaw so you would be tested......... Hahahahaha

4 sincere questions for those that believe there is a God

by S EIGHT in

greetings.. allow me to set the questions up.. after 30 years in the truth (i'm now late 40's) and having established the truth about the truth i consider myself agnostic going on atheist.. i struggle to believe there is a god when i observe life yet i try to convince myself there must be something out there.. here's the basis of my question: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-23583116 .

in summary, 2 young boys have been killed by a snake that escaped from a pet store in canada.

it made it's way up through the ventilation into the apartment they were staying in.

I'm starting to think...it makes sense god won't intervene or display himself or appoint someone to speak for him..after all...look at all the harm that has been done and the arrogance displayed by those who claim to represent god. (Think GB)

I believe there IS something in store for all of us but it will be manifested in his way not man's. None of us had control over our coming into existence. ..it is a free gift just like what is to come..one thing we know for sure is that the human body don't travel thru space well so if we have a destiny beyond this earth he will have to move us out of here some other way other than our present packaging.

Just my opinion..I won't DF anyone who disagrees or has other thoughts....like the GB wants for JW's who disagree

#1 tattoo on left shoulder that looks like my arm was torn off then poorly sewn back on. My next tattoo will be a WT logo with a red circle and a slash over it like a poison do not touch sort of thing.

#2 voted last pres election

#3 I watch every demonic movie I come across...harry potter, van helsing, the grudge, etc....etc...still haven't become possessed!

#4 smoke if I feel like it. Quit when I don't feel like it.

#5 drink to excess if I feel like it. Stay dry if I don't feel like it.

#6 look at gobs of porn sometimes. Quit if I feel its enough already.

#7 THIS IS THE WORST OF ALL......I.....I.... (GASP).....THINK FOR MYSELF!!!

HELP NEEDED for the book I'm writing!

by Terry in

i'm about 90% finished on a book i started nine years ago.

it will deal with jehovah's witness policy on conscientious objectors during war time.

from the 1800's through the end of the draft in the early 1970's.. i am also giving a personal biographical account of my own introduction to the religion, process of assimilation and ministry experience.. additionally, i'm working in timelines connecting the 2nd adventist teachings with russell, rutherford and mainstream watchtower doctrines.. .

Ignore above..twitchy finger posting on smart phone.

I remember hearing a story about war prisoners being shown "fake" watchtowers to break their faith but they wouldn't look at them because they believed them to be fake. It would be interesting to find any who really found they were real and the information was non neutral and hypocritical and those showing them were attempting to awaken those prisoners to the fact they were in a cult and under mind control.

Also it would be good to note JW's don't take their firm stance due to personal conviction derived from personal investigating rather they are really forced to comply with all WT directives to avoid DFing and the subsequent shunning and loss of family.
