Here is what silly looks like

by Sour Grapes in

for shits and grins, i looked at an online sunday meeting a few days ago on youtube.

i was in disbelieve on just how silly everything looks with the watchtower reader reading from his little iphone and the watchtower conductor holding up his iphone to ask the questions.

then the conductor asked the reader to read a bible verse and of course, he reads from his little phone.

Supreme Court Rules in Favor of Baker Who Refused to Bake Cake for Gay Couple

by Simon in

seems like such an obviously correct decision to overturn the previous overreach - it should never have been necessary to go to the supreme court but happened because the rights of the religious were being ignored.. as the fundamental level, no one should be able to compel you to work for them or to provide services that go against your beliefs, and certainly not have the government be able to force you to comply.. if this was allowed there would be so many unreconcilable situations that would clog up courts over nonsense.. i also have little patience for these activists that intentionally look to be offended.

it really doesn't do their cause any good to go round looking to make trouble for people.

it's also misguided because it ends up strengthening religious rights over effectively stupid issues.. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/04/us/politics/supreme-court-sides-with-baker-who-turned-away-gay-couple.html.

Sadly, now a transgendered morphodite is claiming this same baker has discriminated against he-she-it because he turned down the job after the would-be "customer" told the baker in deail about the symbolism involved in the design of the celebratory confection.

Those who claim that people in business have no right to refuse business are communist dupes, plain and simple.

If one twist has the right to be a mutilated morphodite, then another twist has the right to be a silly Xtian.

It is called FREEDOM, you Marxist dupes!

How were God’s true worshipers to determine virginity of pagan girls?

by Ireneus in

in the genocidal instructions supposedly given by god we find this interesting command: “now kill all the boys.

and kill every woman who has slept with a man, but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man.” (numbers 31:17, 18).

in the midst of killing and plundering, how were the israelites to determine whether each girl “has slept with a man” or not?.

Nathan Natas

"How were to determine virginity of girls?"

Simple!

You ASK them!

Virgins are compelled by God's Magic Spirit to answer all questions about their sexuality honestly and completely! - Fellatio 3:16

I’m Sending You My Thoughts and Prayers

by minimus in

jw
friends

how many people here can sincerely say those words to someone?

i take it most here do not say prayers, right?

?.

Nathan Natas

"I’m Sending You My Thoughts and Prayers."

In my ever-humble opinion, the trademark phrase of a cheapskate suck-up!

They may protest "well, it was the least I could do."

I reply, "Yes, it certainly was. The VERY least. It is impossible to do anything less helpful to the bereaved while it makes YOU seem 'caring' and 'Spiritual.' You suck."

That is why I frequently post that I will sing showtunes for the recently departed, to illustrate absurdity by being absurd.

Do you think Ruthaford is buried at Beth Sharim?

by blownaway in

no one really knows where ruthaford is buried.

there is some word of mouth evidence that he is buried under the garage of beth sarim.

i think he is under the garage.

Nathan Natas

Rutherford's (note the spelling please, chillun) burial place may not be known -YET - but he had a physical body and was not seen goin' up yonder with Enoch, so his bones be somewhere, and I will bet money that a GPR survey of Beth Sarim/Shan would find the unknown body of a hastily-buried fat man somewhere on those grounds.

Is Jesus and Michael the Archangel the same person?

by JW Answers in

the jehovah's witnesses believe that jesus christ and michael the archangel are the same person, and blatently ignore numerous verses and passages within scripture which explain that both jesus and michael are two separate persons.this video study (linked below) goes into the intricacies of hebrews chapters 1+2 explaining how the lord jesus and michael are different persons, and looks at the qualities, authority and power at which the lord jesus holds and how it is separate from angels including michael the archangel..

Yez.

Yez day iz.

They both am imagularry.

Research help needed: knowledge of Knights Templar and Masonic history vital

by Fay Dehr in

i am in conversation with a uk historian regarding some knights templar locations, where jws have built buildings.

*** this is serious research - not a joke *** .

i am not - and do not wish to be - a conspiracy theorist, but something has come to light in the uk and i lack the knowledge of knights templar + masons.

Nathan Natas

I would suggest that a good place to begin might be Wikipedia, but you've probably already looked there. The Wiki articles will provide links to other articles that will lead you right down the bunny hole.

Let me also suggest you look into the idea that many of these places of power are found at the intersections of ley lines - a subject about which I know nothing.

Happy trails to you!
