has this question ever been raised before by jehovah`s witnesses?
and what`s the significance, if any ?.
The question in the Title of the thread is not accurate, but that may be deliberate, in no way was Jesus of Nazareth a Messiah.
The Historical Jesus, if he existed, would have been circumcised. Of course.
But the other questions raised are valid if you believe the nonsense, the Mythology, about Yeshua of Nazareth.
is most of the promotion of creationism, not just that by the wt, charlatanism?.
https://www.fullmoon.nu/sources.bak/chapter%2010/part%202/gish%20exposed.html [which has an article called "creationism: bad science or immoral pseudoscience?
- (an expose of creationist dr. duane gish)"] says the following.. 'a look at the "scientific" creationist movement and a close examination of the tactics of a well-known and influential creationist will reveal that the creation "science" movement gains much of its strength through the use of distortion and scientifically unethical tactics.. .... with the facts explained and the lawsuits won, scientists declared victory and returned to their labs and offices.
"Is most of the promotion of creationism, not just that by the WT, charlatanism?"
Yes, be it J.W org taking Genesis far too literally or 100 % Creationists even more so, both groups are Charlatans. They KNOW they are not promoting Truth.

JW org showing their ignorance once again, Philemon is a genuine letter of Paul, Titus, along with 1st and 2nd Timothy, is not.
the 2015 documentary - 'the forecaster' was basically banned in usa.
so martin leased a movie theater in cherry hill nj and showed it himself.. 'a german tv station funded the 2015 documentary on me entitled the forecaster.
because it raised some of these issues back then, the film was banned in the united states as well as switzerland...'.
I don't doubt he was unjustly treated by the Authorities, I do doubt his personal integrity, and his expertise.

Thanks Doug. I have downloaded the Paper to read later.
note this report covers cases going back to 1949, they uncovered 400. if j.w's in the u.k did a similar, thorough trawl of all congregation records going back that far, let's pretend they haven't destroyed most of them, we know they have, but just pretend they are all available, how many cases of abuse would they uncover ?
in a much smaller org ?.
maybe the file destruction that has gone on was to protect the org.
Thank you Jan, for that inside information, and what a contrast to the J.W org !
They fall woefully short on this, its almost as though they relish, and wish to keep, the title that some on here bestowed upon them years ago, the "Paedophile's Paradise".

Note too the Apology, and the things put in place to mitigate the harm done, by the C of E. Another contrast in attitude.

They discourage the Elders from admitting that they are JW's ,why ? because they do not want any connection with Elders mishandling CSA to bite the Org. in the arse, and it actually cost them some $$$.
i had to laugh.. i bumped into a friend who has started going back to the meetings and who has that enthusiastic arm-waving way of talking about the stuff they're hearing from the platform.. in part he's wittering on about some talk they'd had about king david and all of his ups and downs.
and says, "and as the speaker emphasized over and over again, we can imitate david because he was a man just like ourselves.".
" i finally interrupted.. that shut him up.
"Was this geezer running around naked at the time?" and was he "Dancing before the Lord" like a maniac ?
