  That feeling you seek is natural. It is the association with people on a spiritual level. You will not find it anywhere else.

  i am jehovah's witness, despite some of the questionable teachings, crimes, and other outlandish behaviors of specific people affiliated with the religion.

  i know that my relationship with jehovah is not influenced by any outside factors.

  i do not condone any crime.

  Flipper -

  I mentioned before that I do not condone the unjust actions of others. It pains me to see that members affiliated with the religion would go to such lengths to do ungodly deeds. I am not here to justify any mistreatment of any human. Not once have I said that speaking on the abuse of others was wrong, in fact I agreed with you guys on that matter.

  I just started this feed to talk about love and Jehovah in a positive light. The entire website is devoted to discussion about the negatives and the tragedies. Not saying there's a problem with that but I just wanted to start a post that doesn't talk about sorrow, death, disfellowshiping, loneliness, etc. I don't mean to step on anyone's toes at all. Just here to be that one topic that isn't full of sadness.

  Thank you for your response

  My thoughts, at risk of being branded a blasphemer:

  I believe in 'The Creator' of life on this planet and am thankful for all the beauty you can see in nature.i certainly love, thank and appreciate 'He who causes to be', the apparent translation of the name.

  I am not sure if the 'ass kicking' Jehovah of the old testament, as written by men in the Bible (or Koran), is the above.

  I cannot accept our loving creator has the aim of killing 7 billion people.He is a winner not a loser.

  i also believe religion sucks, especially when they speak in the Creator's name without authority.

  Bottom line: (sorry half this post is to do with bottoms), if I was Jehovah/Allah/The Creator, i would one day publicly kick the ass of religious leaders, including JW Governing Body members, for all the problems they have caused. I would not take it out on ordinary people who are trying to live a normal decent life.

  
  

  I love your honesty! I also don't believe that God warrants the suffering of man. His loving kindness shows me that his goal is for everyone to live in peace and security. I sometimes do believe that modern interpretations of religion have skewed from the original goal. Time will tell how this pans out. Better believe that God will serve his form of justice against those that corrupted the faith. He feels for all who are suffering. A better life will come!

  Thanks for your response :)

  Fickle -

  Some things were added and taken away from the bible.

  Notice during the thread I never mention the doctrines penned by the governing body as my salvation. Though some of it is truly enlightening and encouraging none the less.

  I can read the bible in other translations as well and draw the same conclusions of God's name and His true intentions. I don't think that a group of people can be responsible for my individual faith, seeing that the doctrine has many translations and interpretations.

  Question_Mans_Interpretation

  I'm a hypocrite because I smoke pot occasionally and I'm gay? Just because some people may not agree with what I do, doesn't mean I have to take it to heart. I know of my approval from Jehovah. I don't seek approval from man. I know what Revelation 22:18,19 means. Some things were added and taken away from the bible.

  As I stated numerous times my relationship with Jehovah is MY relationship WITH JEHOVAH. If I were to listen to every tom and jerry and allow them to sway my beliefs I wouldn't have faith. I'd have youtube and memes. If I were to allow the actions of few to dictate my impressions of a whole, then I would be the hypocrite. I cannot condone the opinions and actions of others when it comes to injustice. I can only see the truth as it is. I use discretion to filter out the things I know are questionable and immoral. God has His ways of focusing us on the real message.

  I never stated that we are alike. I, however, actually do test inspired scriptures to see whether they originate with God or not. This is why my beliefs are soo strong. You guys are saying "but the WTS did this, and that." Yes that's bad, if it actually happened, but the crime was committed by the persons involved, not an entire religion. It was not the WTS but "Joe, aged 35 in Brooklyn."

  If that's the case, take this into account. Most criminals in America went to school, thus everybody that went to school is a criminal. We are all guilty by association with the educational institution. All teachers in educational institutions train criminals.

  That's a very generalized statement that has no premise other than hypocrisy and confirmation bias. Do you understand?

  Peace be with you my friends.

  Simon

  I concluded that you were the sites owner, I alluded to it in my reply to your statement that I cannot dictate who comments.

  "I cannot stop anyone from commenting because that's how the site is operated. As you may know."
  

  When the time comes, I will offer you something that you can't refuse. You will be the one coming to me on my sites. I am currently working on an app... stay tuned :)

  Nicolaou -

  Did you read what I said?

  I am not baptized, with water.

  Acts 1:5 ...for John, indeed, baptized with water, but you will be baptized with holy spirit..."
