simply put; gullible people were told if they chose life on earth instead of heaven, they wouldn't have to die.
that's how they sold it.
the watchtower lied to people in the 1920 booklet and convention series titled "millions now living will never die!
I am curious how anyone that was once a JW could fall wholeheartedly for another belief system that is every bit as questionable as the first one.
After any time spent as a JW, you should be able smell bullshit propaganda and mind control a mile away.
Its like swallowing the blue pill all over again.
(matthew 24:36) “concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the son, but only the father.".
(jesus seems to have forgotten to include the holy spirit not knowing either).
(acts 1:7) "he said to them: “it does not belong to you to know the times or seasons that the father has placed in his own jurisdiction.".
I dont understand the charts - so Im taking it slow....
the universe came into being 13.8 billion years ago in the big bang.
after an initial flash, it went through a period known as the cosmic dark ages.
according to a new study, probing cosmic dawn, 250 to 350 million years after the big bang the first stars emerged bringing light to the cosmos.
There is a theory that our universe may exist in a black hole.
things are moving right along.
“israel” has gone to war with iran.. who is fooled?.
this is uncle sam, same as in ukraine.. daniel layed out clearly the events of “d day” june 6, 1944 as the “ships of kittim” would sail against the king of the north.
Trump is unhappy because Israel threw everything they had at Iran right up until the last minute, instead of pulling out like he asked them to.

Journeyman makes good points. Some people seem to think that if you drop a few bombs, then it's problem solved - game over.
These kinds of actions breed hatred-fuelled revenge. Iran is set back for now - maybe. What about in a year or two from now? Is it rinse and repeat?
it’s been discussed before that few jw leaders, past and present, have had children.
this is in contrast with other groups, such as the mormons, whose leaders have had a lot of children.
i wonder if this has impacted jw growth.
If a JW is serious about their faith, it is extremely difficult to reconcile bringing children into this world.
Ive always wondered how any JW can preach about how sick the world is and how close to the end we are, and then proceed to increase the population with their own offspring.

Nuclear weapons would give Iran some leverage but I wonder if they would actually use them. I mean, the day they were launched is the day Iran would cease to exist.

Israel deliberately hits 26 Gazan hospitals and kills 600 and it's justified.
Iran hits 1 Israeli hospital with no deaths and Netanyahu calls it a war crime.

The U.N: 'Israel is accused of war crimes against Palestine'
Israel: 'The U.N is a swamp of anti-semitic bile'
Also the U.N: 'Iran has breached is nuclear obligations'
Israel : 'We will immediately bomb Iran'
This is meant to be tongue-in-cheek. I know there are some delicate people here who will give predictable replies but try and relax for now.
