  Ray Franz was an Idiot

  by vinman in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  ray franz who gave us insight into the gb due to a crisis of conscience was an absolute moron, with absolutely no critical thinking skills whatsoever like all of us have.

  i mean, to have a conscience based on some magic man in the sky.. how stupid can you be?

  in search of christian freedom?

  Actually, I agree with you though it hurts me to say so. You see, I am also one of those who believed in the religion (or at least I thought I did).

  I say that I thought I believed it because to me now it is so obviously a lie, the whole religion itself being naive and immature to the extreme so that I am ashamed to admit to myself and others that I ever believed such nonsense because it would seem to indicate a lack of intelligence or at best a lack of proper education.

  Worse still, I actually felt the need to prove it wrong!! I can't believe that now.

  We created the gods and it is we who will dispense with them.

  Greatest quote in this century by a Governing Body member!

  not only does he say it would be arrogant of him to state only he and his group are the only channel of communication from god but goes on to admit others maybe as well.

  what??.

  You really can't take anything he says seriously. I have watched the whole thing on YouTube and I have to say that either Jackson is really thick or very proficient at pretending to be. I am inclined to think the former.

  Whatever way they spin it, he is sat there, jumping through hoops and doing just about anything he can to avoid telling the truth

  If anyone here has any doubt at all that the JW's are nothing more than just another man-made religion I suggest you watch it for yourself.

  Personally, I am dumbfounded at Jackson's lack of sincerity. He's taken disingenuous to a whole new level and I honestly believe that we are witnessing the very beginning of their undoing.

  Whatever the case, I really don't think the future is bright for the Jehovah's...

  Which is good news for mankind!

  Paranormal activity in a room at Ohio University

  by economy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  why this room (no 428), located at ohio university, is unavailable to students?.

  it has been boarded up and closed off because of various paranormal reports regarding the room.

  poltergeist activity has been felt: objects flying across the room, doors that open and shut by themselves, and dark shadows appearing and disappearing without explanation.

  If you like to impose your views on others while suppressing their right to express their own contrary beliefs

  If you like to have your voice heard but would trample upon the voices of others

  If you receive no recognition in the real world but flourish as a big fish in a tiny puddle

  If you have an inferiority complex and can only gain acceptance and a sense of meaning by being in a small, closed minded, close knit group

  If you have spent your life being a less than average nobody but get to don a suit three times weekly while masquerading as an important 'minister' on official, theocratic duty

  If you have an overwhelming propensity toward religious bigotry based on a false assumption of moral superiority 

  If you have an unhealthy preoccupation with the relentless passing of time, while all the while feeling that it is your worst enemy

  2. friends

  i started going door to door at age 5 and was giving no.

  2 talks by age 7. during the 8 years i was an active adult jw i was never a ms or elder (although i was a regular pioneer once).

  so, i never qualified to give an hour talk.

  Irrespective of our own beliefs, it is nice to see that some people, upon leaving the WT cult, go on to do other more constructive things which place them in a unique position to educate others on the topic of the Jehovah's Witnesses whether it is from a religious or scientific perspective.

  Much more productive than just becoming bitter and knotted up with anger.

  Bravo.

  Absolutely agree with what you are all saying.

  Slowly, bit by bit, they are becoming the very thing that they have been ranting against for over one hundred years.

  I always said it would happen and it has because the Watchtower religion itself is a reactionary movement and as such will lose momentum as the gap between itself and it's nemisis (mainstream Christianity) narrows.

  Some things are just so predictable 😄 

  Big smiley face!

  End times madness?

  by erbie in

  my wife's parents who are pretty obsessed with the watchtower religion are going on holiday more than they are at home these days and spending money like it is something evil to be got rid of.

  i have not been to a meeting in a long time but after reading the thread on hysteria by campaign of hate and the whole tv broadcasting thing i got to wondering if they really are ramping up the 'sense of urgency'.

  many on here are better informed than me so i'd be interested to hear whether this is a common thing..

  Okay, I get it guys. The end is as close as ever. 

  Just the same old shite but on a different day right?

  I genuinely feel sorry for them.
