  questions that defy JW logic No bible needed just a working brain

  by thecrushed in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  even before awakening from the mind control my mind would plague me with doctrine defying logic.

  i'd like to share some of my self explanatory questions here.

  every time i'd ask jw's these questions they would give me bs answers like we will have to wait on jehovah to tell us in the new system or some other lamo thinking stopper.

  Oh crap..

  *puts on suit and tie*

  I, uh, chose not to answer yours, Chariklo, because your questions are clearly from the mind of a diseased apostate, and you just want to be critical of Gods wonderful organization.

  Yes. That'll do.

  Well, perhaps the rest of the sentence would help with understanding. Or is it a heading? Are they quoting scripture, or something else?

  JW's have never taught Jesus and God were the same, although for a time they said Jesus deserved worship. That ended years before this article was written though.

  It's about inflection - written as it would be spoken = "This Jesus, God ressurected." That's why there should be something after that phrase, it's the beginning of a sentence, not an end of one. On it's own it makes no sense.

  Another way of writing it would be "The Jesus THAT God resurrected was/is blah blah."

  Seeing as our in-house JW's are too scaredy to come and answer these questions, I shall take on the challenge! (All answers provided by JW Parenting™)

  How did all the diversity and unique life that has been discovered in the past century in the south american rain forests and austrailia get from the Ark to there respective places?

  God controlled the animals and moved them where he wanted them. There may have been land bridges for the animals to use.

  If it was so important then why didn't God just recreate them instead of creating such an impossible task for Noah?

  But the task wasn't impossible, because Noah did it. Anything is possible with Jehoopla's* help

  If Jehovah is a perfect God then why did he create Dinosaurs just to then turn around and have them destroyed not once but several times? Did God really need an eraser on his creation pencil?

  Dinosaurs were created to tidy the earth before mans arrival, just think of them as the gardeners! Did you know soil is dinosaur poop?

  Why would a Loving God create Parasites that kill people everyday? Why would he create viruses?

  The original purpose of these animals was to help humans, maybe even to keep them living forever! Because we are sinful nothing works properly.Viruses are an extension of Adam's sin.

  Why would he create animals designed to rip flesh from bones if his purpose was for them to eat grass and be completely tranquil and peaceful with everyone.

  If Dinosaurs were the gardeners, then carnivores are the cleaners. Carnivorous animals will eat the dead bodies of animals in System 2.0

  Why do we see an ecosystem that strikes a perfect balance with all living things via predator or prey food chain system?

  It strikes a perfect balance because Jahuba edited the food chain system after the Flood. What else would you expect from God other than perfection?

  We now know that we are all related by our DNA. If we were individually created by god should not every DNA pattern be unique in everyway with no relation to any other creature? Yet we see that certian parts of our DNA are simply switches that have been turned off or discarded because we no longer needed them.

  An artist is known by his style, and his signature. Though each painting is unique, it follows a similar pattern. To be sure, DNA is the brush our loving designer used when creating all life.

  If birds didn't come from dino's then how the hell did scientists recently manage to manipulate genes found in chickens that are also found in Raptors to give them teeth?

  *ahem* You'll have to wait on Jobo for that one.

  If we are supposed to live forever then why have scientists found that the sun has a finite amount of expendable energy before it super nova's and destroys the solar system?

  Maybe our sun is different. You're not God, you don't know!

  If we are supposed to live forever why is it known that the Andromedia and Milkyway Galaxy will eventually murge there by destroying everything and then rebirthing into a new Galaxy?

  Actually I have to correct you on this one. The Andromeda - Milky Way collision wouldn't destroy our planet, nor our solar system.

  The phrasing is a little dumb, but Nambo is right. I envisioned some kind of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers deity when I read it.

  "It's not just God, it's Jesus God."

  What apostates fail to recognize is...

  by nananana in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  you can cut & paste all the excerpts from articles you want...you can leak all the boe letters, you can pretend to be witnesses and come to the conventions and meetings...but.

  no other organization can begin to rival the success and magnitude of the prophecy found in mt 24:14. so apostates....don't waste your time spending countless hours digging up articles and reading books to convince yourself to turn away from jh's organization.

  no matter what "evidence" you find you cannot ignore the obvious fulfillment of matthew 24:14.. .

  This is another Hit & Run thread. But i'll respond because I haven't said much in the last week.

  *clears throat*

  Matthew 24:14 is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

  Why do witnesses go out and preach? Because of this prophecy.

  Why are witnesses always trying to expand their ministry? Because this prophecy tells them that is what must happen. Same with any other Christian group - the methods differ but the motives are the same.

  He might get a stern talking to, but I imagine a few hundred foreskins would suffice for an apology.

  9/11 Conspiracy nuts...60% of Americans are you KIDDING!!!!

  by Witness 007 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  60% of americans in one servey think the government did it.....even though there is no sold evidence.

  let me spell it out.....a huge airplane full of fuel hit the building plowing thru the steel supports, thousands of witnesses, and video fotage, it almost flew through the building with debris blowing out the other side.

  although it appears in the footage there is alot of smoke but no fire, right?

  For some reason, I cannot copy and paste on this forum, otherwise I could have you all on page 40 by now with all the material Ive gathered. . .

  I can't seem to post active links either. . .

  I'll refrain from getting into an argument here. The Loose Change/Popular Mechanics video ended the debate for me. And that was 6 years ago.

  But can you post a link for that %age statistic, mr Witness?

  Can we make our own magazine?

  by bottleofwater in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i had an idea the other day while seeing someone reading a watchtower magazine on the bus, why can't we make a magazine similar to the watchtower in size, font, and format?.

  even a one time 16-page brochure would be great.. basically even if many jws are stubborn it would help at least some who are on the fence.... why can't we?

  we don't even have to make it say jehovah's witnesses on the cover.. just call it.... the truth (where the watchtower header line would go in the same font).

  It could be done. I know a few users on here write for blogs and websites. And there are several companies that do printing on the cheap for small magazines. Even compiling some of the articles from corior or jwfacts would make for decent hand-out material.

  There is a way,

  But is there a will? Perhaps.

  Is there a necessity? Perhaps not.
