Can god see into the future?
by DuvanMuvan inthis is something that's been bothering me for a while.. if god could see into the future, why has he allowed so many bad things to happen?
for example in the garden of eden.
he should have known from the beginning what would happen.if there was even the tiniest chance that they'd eat the fruit then god obviously didn't think it would be benefical to, idk, prevent it from happening?

Hell or no hell
by never a jw inabout a year ago i had an exchange of emails with an elder of a congregation where all my jw relatives attend.
i asked him all kinds of questions regarding blood, 607, shunning, evolution, higher education.
as anticipated, he either had no answer or provided an evasive one.

Sorry if I "harshed your mellow," never_a_jw.
I was raised a JW from the age of 7-ish, was a pioneer and a Ministerial Servant in my congregation and gave the 1 hour public talk on Sunday. Then my brains kicked in; today I'm an atheist and hold no fondness for parasitic metaphysicians.
...but I can speak JW if the situation demands it. Perhaps this is one such occasion, eh?

Hell no.
There is no "spirit realm" subdivided into parcels called Heaven or Hell. There are no "spiritual beings" called gods, angels or demons.
You have no "spiritual organ" called a soul. When you are born, you begin your one-and-only experience of life, and when you die it is over.
What DOES exist is the human imagination capable of self-deception to disguise some of the harsh reality of existence.
You're welcome.

Do you pray over your meals? If so why? If not, when did you stop and why?
by BU2B into answer my question, no i do not pray over meals anymore exept for when i am with other jws i do a 15 second head bow for appearances sake.
i just came to the realization god had nothing to do with whether i ate or not.
many believers are starving right now whilst many non-believers are eating like kings.. also why should god give me food while he lets little children in dprk concentration camps starve to death.

Angels and Women - A review
by LivingTheDream ini first found and read this book as a young man during the early 1980s while visiting the bethel library.
this library was located at the world headquarters of jehovah's witnesses in brooklyn new york.
this book exists in its form now because of the interest that religion's leaders had in the original work seola, from where this book was adapted.
