  True or False .... The JW Religion was Started by Amateur Self Avowed Bible Theologians ?

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  .....who were able to propagate their self devised bible theology by utilizing a printing plant which they themselves were the head editorial writers .

  c t russell and the man to follow him j rutherford, were both not academically trained bible theologians but they certainly were inspired businessmen to the fact, charlatans of their own era and time.. the return of jesus christ and a new world order to replace an old wicked world order, was just too much of a marketable and tangible concept for those men to just leave alone.

  they exploited the already existing belief in the bible already structured within the population to where they preached their created version of the gospel, the rest is now history as well their many self devised albeit commercially appealing failed doctrines .

  More Ant-Evolution BS in this months JW Broadcast Program

  by ttdtt in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  so at around the 46 min mark - the are talking to this guy from ukraine who was a zoologist.. he talks about how he was a staunch evolutionist (who wasn't able to prove evolution to himself, by the way).

  then when he studied nature through the lens of evolution - he found that nature contradicted evolution.. his big point came when he said - "imagine emptying a box of letter blocks on a table, and the encyclopedia britannica appears, or could a computer program come by chance.

  so who could dna come by chance.".

  They are saving Ramah Singh for next month.

  You know they have to rotate between miss quoting real scientists and JWs who pretend to be educated but believe in fairytales.

  Island Man - VERY TRUE!!

  I remember friends using this line on people "Well have you ever read the Bible? if not how can you judge it?"
  
  Guess that's only a 1 way street - Bet no JW say - let me read Origin of Species to see what its about....

  OK all - with this piercing analysis - I have to RECANT and go back to the Hall.

  F the millions of pieces of evidence that science and museums hold!

  F the new DNA proof that is there for everyone to look at.

  How can you argue against letter blocks not turning into the Encyclopedia Britannica !!!

  Ex Brothers and Sisters - please recant as well - here is all the simple minded and eroniouse fact free ingenuous info you need! http://tv.jw.org/#en/video/VODStudio/pub-jwb_201604_1_VIDEO

  IS DOUBT always an indication of moral failure---FAITH vs. DOUBT?

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  is doubt always an indication of moral failure-- faith vs. doubt?.

  human survival depends upon a rigorous balance between perception and the means of testing first impressions.

  nature’s own test is that of eater and eaten.. inside the food chain, predators blend with their surrounding habitat.

  It is if you are a JW - funny how Jesus didn't condemn Thomas, nor did the disciples shun him.

  Twilight and other banned media

  by purrpurr in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  thanks to online media of movies and books i've recently been watching the twilight series.

  issues of quality aside i enjoyed it enough.

  i mostly wanted to see what the fuss was about and have the fun of seeing a movie that was banned from the platform when it came out.

  I had a friend how loved Lord of the Rings - and moved to a different congregation when the movies were coming out.

  He was NOT allowed to go and see them (as an adult) because the ELDERS felt it was spiritistic. They made the decision for everyone.

  Is the 'growth™' still being hyped?

  by punkofnice in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  when i was a member of watchtower corporation, i regularly heard how it must be the true religion because of the growth™.

  (phenomenal, apparently).. i wonder if they still hang onto this?

  has it been boasted about at meetings recently?

  1984 again.

  From the letter to full time servants this year.
  

  Even though the ranks of temporary special pioneers and special pioneers are being reduced, you can be assured that this is not an indication that the work is slowing down. (Isa. 60:22) The 2015 world report indicates that more than a quarter of a million new disciples joined us in true worship last year!

  But the number baptised in 2014 was 275,581- in 2015 it was 260,273.

  
  I don't know much about math - but it seems the number in 2015 has decreased - to me that usually indicates a slowing down.

  From 1984

  The chocolate ration in 1983 was 30 grams per week. In the year 1984, the chocolate ration went up to 25 grams per week. Winston himself is charged with the task of re-writing history to make this little feat possible.

  300 books and magazines placed outside The Shard

  by pleaseresearch in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  hi all.. so i got a txt today from a very proud mum claiming that, the jw cart produced 300 book and magazine placements.

  mostly from foreign speakers.. the shard is the tallest building in the uk.

  this is where the cart was placed.. not a bad day they had really.

  Again I call BS on this. 300 in mostly foreign languages?

  So what languages?

  How many different languages did they carry? Its general practice for the cart to be ALL 1 language as the headboard is in 1 language.

  Did they keep switching the head board with different languages so those people would know what it said?

  If they did give away 300 in different languages - they would need a massive stock of books in the "truck I guess" to keep filling up the cart that can only hold a few.

  TOTAL BS

  Im sure that was tongue and cheek:) but they are trained to NOT approach anyone - just help someone who comes up and is interested.

  
  

  I don't believe that her experience is correct. It does not match with any know experience I have seen.

  I have seen Carts in NYC on super busy and touristy street, and people just Walk By. No one wants that crap.
