LOL Rebel unfortunately yes. Considering your gonna get Zapped, you might as well just have a one night stand. Either way the end result is the same.

Baby talk...
by The Rebel ingee reading my earliest posts, i feel i arrived here needing a head transplant.
of course we can't ban our earliest posts, and we can't claim we were misquoted, but then again think about it, many of us come here with geoffrey jacksons brains and mind control ruling our thinking.. so i looked back at my earlier posts, and i imagined the man i was who made them.
to be honest i hardly recognized him, i feel infinitely a better and wiser less pious now, however i i don't feel so clever nor do i have such a deep religious faith.. anyway, the thread was made because i have often read posters past threads in order to get to know them better, but it never occurred to me to read my own past threads, and i learnt i am glad i had the guts to make my earlier posts, but the person that made them is in the far distant past.

"According to the witnesses baby talk will cease to exist in the new system, but can you imagine attending a wedding where the groom is 188, and the bride 765 years YOUNG?"
I could never imagine someone living that long in the new system. One screw up after the final test and your out!! ZAP!! God will smite all who even have a single rebellious thought in Zombie Paradise.
Consider the thoughts of the 188 year old groom for a second. "Man tonight I'm going to bang my old lady!!!" ZAP!! He's dead cause he thought about banging. That's not wholesome in Gods eyes. He should have been thinking about family worship and singing those shitty songs, not banging... Fun times.😕

No blood transfusion
No good music
No good movies

Jonah's success, J-dubs failure in preaching.
by Darkknight757 in3:1 then the word of the lord came to jonah a second time: 2 “go to the great city of nineveh and proclaim to it the message i give you.”3 jonah obeyed the word of the lord and went to nineveh.
now nineveh was a very large city; it took three days to go through it.
4 jonah began by going a day’s journey into the city, proclaiming, “forty more days and nineveh will be overthrown.” 5 the ninevites believed god.

I also love how the society proves that the people of Nineveh converted...
Note para 9 of chapter 14 of Imitation Faith:
“9 Some critics express doubt that such a change of heart could have occurred so quickly among the Ninevites. However, Bible scholars have noted that a movement of that kind was not out of keeping with the superstitious and volatile nature of people of such cultures in ancient times. Further, we know that such critics are mistaken, for Jesus Christ himself later referred to the repentance of the Ninevites. (Read Matthew 12:41.) Jesus knew what he was talking about, for he had been alive in heaven to witness those events as they unfolded. (John 8:57, 58) The truth is, we should never assume that it is impossible for people to repent—no matter how vicious they may seem to us. Only Jehovah can read what lies within the human heart.”
So how do we know this is an actual historical event? Because Jesus said so....
Really, because Jesus said so????? This coming from the same book that says green vegetation was created one whole creative "day" before the sun. The same book that has talking animals. The same chapter of a book that claims a man can live in a fish for 3 days. I smell pooh pooh.😷

Agreed smiddy. I was at it for a solid 20 years putting in more than average hours and using all the "best" tactics with no result.
It certainly is a great way to keep people inundated with busy work.
edit: a note from para 6
“6 When Jonah finally entered Nineveh, its sizable population of more than 120,000 may have made the place only more intimidating.* He walked for a day, penetrating ever deeper into that teeming metropolis, perhaps looking for a suitable central location to start spreading his message.”
So did Jonah walk for an entire day, ignoring all until he found a "suitable central location to START spreading his message?"
Jonah 3:4 Jonah began by going a day’s journey into the city, proclaiming, “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overthrown.”
Says he went a day's journey PROCLAIMING!! Perhaps I'm wrong here but it would seem silly to remain silent for an entire day in order to find a good spot to preach. Unless Jonah had an apathy cart?? One can only guess.

Agreed dbq. Also how did God NOT punish Jonah? He caused a storm that nearly killed him and other innocents. Then he gave Jonah a 3 day acid bath in the stomach of a huge fish.
By the way, Nineveh was only 3 square miles. Why do the dubs think it was like 75 square miles? Weird.

Now Nineveh was a very large city; it took three days to go through it. 4 Jonah began by going a day’s journey into the city, proclaiming, “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overthrown.” 5 The Ninevites believed God. A fast was proclaimed, and all of them, from the greatest to the least, put on sackcloth.6 When Jonah’s warning reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, took off his royal robes, covered himself with sackcloth and sat down in the dust.
So I was sitting through the meeting this evening and a thought occurred to me, God blessed Jonah and made his ministry successful when he went to Nineveh, yet how can the dubs claim God is blessing the preaching work they are doing today? Where's the proof? 100,000 hour average hours per new publisher? In just a few days Jonah convinced an entire city to turn around.😳Peter did one speech after Jesus death and 3000 were converted in one day. What dub in their right mind can even begin to think that God is blessing the preaching work today?
