  This weeks study article: God gave us these truths, yet we admit he hasn't actually given us the truth yet-- think about it

  by The Quiet One in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  wt 2/13 page 3 paragraph 3--> "though religious error abounds worldwide, how thankful we are that god has given us spiritual light and truth!

  (read psalm 43:3,4.

  ) whereas the masses of mankind walk in darkness, we joyfully keep on walking in god-given spiritual light.

  "the brief statedthat [ t]hat letter [a 1997 letter to boe] also confirmed watchtower's long-standing policy that a known child molester does not qualify to be appointed to a position of responsibility in any congregation.

  Oldhippie-- You're right, I am also slightly suspicious about the 'email me' thing.. I sent a polite decline via PM, and she said that many people had given their email address in order to receive the file, so many that she had automatically tried to add me to her contacts, then realised I hadn't sent my address.. And this isn't the first time that she's offered to do this, despite it now being publicly available.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/bible/244545/1/PDF-of-elder-book-and-Oct-1-letter-to-BOEs

  If you started an organisation (related to exposing the Watchtower, helping Jw's who are disfellowshipped, or any other worthy cause).. What would it be called and what would you aim to achieve?

  Death

  by punkofnice in

  when i was a dub i was petrified of displeasing the trademark imaginary god that the wbt$ had invented.

  i feared that kind of death.. the thought of being unconscious totally forevermore seems so weird.. now that i know the wbt$ was lying (as usual), and i realise there can't possibly be a god as described in religion i am now faced with the reality that i'll be dead and gone with nothing to carry me on after in a conscious way.

  just because i don't want this to happen doesn't mean it won't.. oh, darn!

  Don't you feel that an eternity on this earth would be worse than death? Maybe that's just me.. I'd often wonder why a God would curse us with fear, anxiety and awareness of death and empathy for other peoples suffering , whereas many animals get to just enjoy life without those feelings. I guess that's the price of 'higher intelligience'...

  I'd start an organisation called We Have No Idea, we'd hold meetings where all agnostics/nonbelievers could come together and discuss everything that we don't know anything about.. There'd never be any shortage of conversation! We would leave flyers all over the place with phrases such as 'Ask yourself, what do you really know? And how do you know that you know?'. We'd promote nonbelief, skepticism and learning about how little knowledge that we have of this universe/multiverse/whatever it is. Religion fears nothing more than nonbelief, without unfounded belief what power does it have?.. Seriously, not a clue. I was just trying to provide an alternative place for ideas...

  You're probably right.. Most people would rather nitpick others ideas than be creative/inspired themselves, it could just be human nature..
