  OK - I've had it - My letter to the KH

  by LisaRose in

  the whole time i lived in colorado, i had the dubs come by once and leave a tract.

  but since moving to california, they are at my door so often i asked them to put me on the "do not call" list.

  this did not stop them, in fact i have asked four times, plus once i called the kingdom hall and left a message, they still come, the last time this past saturday.

  as others have posted, facebook has been lit up with comments like "historical event", "great to finally hear from our wonderful gb" and a new bible.

  everyone, even here, wants to disect it, compare it and ponder the magnitude of it all.

  You know what's ironic DATA-DOG?

  The Dead Sea Scrolls contained apocryphal scriptures. They don't tell you that at the Kingdom Hall.

  The new translation of John 17:3 seems like a major shift.

  by paul from cleveland in

  up until now, everlasting life was dependent on "taking in knowledge".

  it was a perfect fit for a publishing house to interpret that scripture that way.

  if we didn't keep up with the endless stream of publications from the watchtower our salvation would be in jeopardy.

  So many wisecracks....

  i attended the agm and god, it's as if they are trying to entettain the audience.

  it is like they don't even have a regard to being serious anymore, which makes me sick.

  how am i supposed to focus on what you're really trying to say if all most everything you do say is feignly amusing.

  Food for thought

  by braincleaned in

  1. watchtower

  why is it said that we "inherited" sin?

  we all know the old 'dented cake mold' illustration... but it doesn't follow logic.. .

  it was obviously not obligatory that we "inherited" sin.

  I'm VERY familiar with Augustine's view on sin. But this does not address my post.
  Jesus was still born from a woman who was part of the " condemned crowd"... his birth is proof that the condemnation was modifiable.
  
  There is no going around it.
