  i recently found this image of jesus, with a caption, a reminder of past stupidity in believing that kind, loving jesus, would (on behalf of old yhwy) look after me when he 99% of the people on this earth.. .

  in case you're wondering i found it on a pinterest page.. proverbs 8, of course.

  personifies wisdom - and the passages are controversial and the subject of some academic analysis (e.g.

  Me personally I believe in a Creator. But what kind of a Creator?
  

  People want to believe God has a plan for all of us.

  But God's a kid with an ant farm, He's not planning anything.

  There was a lot of progress being made in that region of the world. We are watching it all unravel.

  Remember when Biden said he was ready to nuke as many Countries as possible

  Then the Democrats wanted to take away his power of handling the nukes

  Then the media erased all videos of Biden saying that

  I am still not able to solve this God's name paradox...

  by psyco in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i am finishing to read the entire bible (nwt 2013) for my first time (my fault) and i wrote down hundreds, maybe thousands, of questions not clear to me, but one especially came in my mind meditating on god's name.. if i wanted to summarize the entire bible in one phrase i would say (even before the kingdom): god’s name sanctification.. god is jealous about his name.

  he does everything for the love of his name, and he wants to be called and prayed using his name.

  no doubt about all this (repeated several times in the bible), but it involves the pronunciation of his name.. god left us his name in the form of יהוה which is unpronounceable.

  This matter remains extremely confusing for me!!!

  That's what happens when you rely on a book whose fundamental Truth relies on a
  

  Talking snake, a Talking donkey, a flying dragon
  

  Magical Fruit

  Invisible beings who materialize to rape beautiful women.

  And a Name that everyone argues on the way it should be pronounced.

  Remember how it felt before you woke up. Living forever in a Righteous World.

  2. beliefs

  i woke up early in life.

  it’s not because i was smarter than my brothers and sisters.

  in fact, reflecting back, i actually don’t know why i didn’t embrace the watchtower teachings?

  I then felt disappointment. I was not going to live in paradise. There was no New World and I would never see my dead mother again.

  That's the worst thing about learning the Truth about the Truth----To find out that it was never really about us.

  black hammer has raised money to purchase 200 acres of colorado land for 'colonised peoples' (black and native american people) and create a communist ethnostate (no whitey allowed).. it's may 11 so it can't be an april fool joke, lol ….

  The spokesman I saw looked Spanish descent. If you think English colonists were brutal look at the Spanish ones.

  All humans regardless of race, color,etc. are cruel, fierce, and ready to kill each other. That's just the reality of the human race. To be honest, I'm surprise we've lasted this long after we discovered Nuclear weapons.

  I'm not an investor per say in stocks, but I do swing and day trade. I bought Comcast on Friday and sold before close, On Monday I shorted the same stock and sold before closing. I have a margin account so I can trade every day but normally I only have about 6 good trades a month. I bought 4,000 shares on Friday and shorted 4500 shares on Monday. For some reason I had a hard time getting the stock to short but eventually I did. Not sure why. But not bad for two days of work.

  Neanderthals carb loaded, helping grow their big brains

  by Disillusioned JW in

  see https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2021/05/neanderthals-carb-loaded-helping-grow-their-big-brains .

  the article says in part 'the study is “groundbreaking,” says harvard university evolutionary biologist rachel carmody, who was not part of the research.

  the work suggests the ancestors of both humans and neanderthals were cooking lots of starchy foods at least 600,000 years ago.

  Scientists make findings and then interpret them for us, we have to be prepared for new knowledge to change those Scientist's views.

  Like Covid, Masks, Locking down the world economy and Social distancing.

  Do local JWs want in-person meetings back in your congregation?

  by JWTom in

  2. friends

  i realize many here think that in-person meetings will return as soon as things are safe with covid.

  but many acknowledge it will likely be 2022 or later when this happens.. surprisingly, many pimi jws in our congregation are not shy about saying they are fine with zoom meetings forever and do not want to go back to in-person meetings.

  many speculate similar thoughts that are on this site....such as a combination of in-person and zoom meetings.
