New definition of lying

by I am a Bible Student in

the watchtower no 1 for 2016, entitled 'why be honest', has this definition of lying on page 5:.

"saying something false to someone who is entitled to know the truth.".

so if i tell my husband an untruth, i.e.

Lying

WHAT IS IT? A lie is when you tell young people 40+ years ago that they "will never grow old in this system."

If YOU had to make the decision, would you respect a JW relatives wish to refuse a blood transfusion?

by nicolaou in

a few years after i quit the meetings my mum needed her medical directive signed and witnessed and she asked if i'd do it.

i was surprised to say the least!.

i think she was just angling to include me and maybe find some lever to get me involved again.

Pretty sure that brother in the first presentation should have asked the householder if they spoke english.

How many of you actually KNOW the bible OR God???

by Mark Zyche in

since jws are sooooooo terrible and full of lies.

what the heck do you think about fat santa, and and days later the celebration of janus?.

since you seem to be so good at looking at the "lies of the watchtower" what do you people think of your lives now, religiously speaking?

Mark: do you happen to be one of my relatives angry because my wife and I decided to leave?

That would be so great if you were. Your trolling this site and insulting posters shows me your cognitive dissonance is running rampant.

I urge you to sincerely meditate on these questions:

Would God's chosen faithful and discreet slave lie under oath? (Bro. Jackson lied and obfuscated under oath in Australia.)

Would God's chosen organization have to ask for money? (May 2015 broadcast)

Would God's chosen organization tell young people in 1969, "If you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things."? (May 22 1969 Awake, p. 15)

Would God's Faithful and Discreet Slave say that women that are being raped are committing fornication if they don't fight back? ("So by no means would it be proper quietly to submit to rape, as that would be consenting to fornication." Watchtower 1968 Jun 1)

OP: How many of you actually KNOW the bible OR God???

I know the bible and I know the God of the bible. The God of the Bible likes to kill innocent children and infants. He also likes to commit genocide.

Just an example of the God of the Bible's personality: YHWH was so pissed at David and Bath-sheba's fornicating. So, what did he do? Did he kill David or Bath-sheba like the law required? No. He killed their newborn child. Was it a swift, merciful death for the child? No. The child suffered for seven days before he died.

That is the God you worship. A murderous a-shole of a God.

If he exists, I don't want to worship such a horrible being.

well then lets see you make a thread saying "does god exist" and see how many people here agree with you.... LOL THAT WONT HAPPEN!!! LOL

There are plenty of threads discussing the existence or non-existence of God. And not everyone agrees. Feel free to use the search function.

They all boil down to this: the atheists ask for evidence, the theists don't have evidence but still believe.

WELL THEN youre right!!! JWS are not the true faith..THEN YOU MUST BE ABLE TO TELL WHO IS....who is?

You're starting with an assumed premise. That assumed premise is that there is a "true faith." How do you know there is a true faith? What evidence do you have that there is a true faith?

I am genuinely interested to know. Because, if I am presented evidence that there is a true God and that there is a true Faith, I would want to make an informed decision about whether I want to worship that God or not.

So please. Present your evidence.

soooo sad. You poor cultists.

Mark: Please present your objective evidence that Jehovah's Witnesses have the "truth."

FYI, apostates have no leader. We have a common bond of having left the JW cult...that's about it.

JW's made me an atheist. JW's taught me to prove every other religion wrong. And then when I was able to prove JW's wrong with the same criteria they use for other religions, I decided to live my life based on evidence.

Atheism isn't a religion. It's a lack of belief. The only thing all atheists have in common is not believing in one god less than you.
