  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a month ago i sent a letter to the us branch about 607. my purpose for sending it was because i wanted to show to my parents through the letters the truth behind the date system.

  two days ago, i received a response from them.

  i think this is gonna be the first of many.

  Read Ray Franz's book this will describe his whole dismissal from Bethel (along with Ed Dunlap) was because they couldn't find any secular historians that could support the 607 BC theory.

  PS "However, if you continue to have questions regarding this matter, feel free to speak with your congregation elders."

  Ask the Elders? Yes, I'm sure Joe the elder who works on the garage truck or Tom the janitor or maybe Larry the car salesman can explain this mumble jumble better than we can!

  PSS "Lobsto.... you know of course that they sent a copy of your letter and this one to your congregation."

  Yes, meaning get ready for a committee meaning!

  "It seems like your brother Lobsto is having some doubts about the organization."

  once upon a time in... hollywood my review.

  i rode my bike through 3-digit temperature and watched quentin tarentino’s new film.the title harkens back to sergio leone’s trilogy titles.. i wanted to see it for personal reasons.

  the time span covered is the background to much of my life.

  Yes, I agree. In fact I've seen the movie twice. I went back again to get some of the hidden gems I missed the first time around.

  Qt who we all know loves to disseminate death an a lot of blood would have had no problem normally slicing and dicing any buddy including a pregnant women and taking their blood and smearing it on the walls. However he took us down a different road.

  A better road? Maybe....different for sure.

  Most people go to movies to escape reality.

  What do you expect for only $8 the answers to life?

  Hello my fellow brethren!

  I am trying to educate people about the positive influence that Jehovah's Witnesses can have on humanity and on my local community in general! It is getting harder and harder and I'd like to ask for some assistance from you, any sort of donation towards the goal would be appreciated, no matter how small! Everything will go towards making sure the plan comes to fruition, the PayPal email is [email protected]

  I guess he doesn't know I would spend the last cent I have to bring this organization down if I could.

  Shunning Your Children Is No Big Deal....Really?

  by The Bethelite in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the worst form of punishment for any major crime on the planet is death.. however, the second option of imprisonment is way more powerful and popular all over the world.

  the most powerful form of imprisonment is called solitary confinement.

  by shunning people this is what you inflict on your loved ones who no longer want to be the same religion as you, .

  Yes there’s some scripture that says these things will not be called to mind. That’s why I don’t get why Jehovah's Witnesses are always bummed out that none of his kids are in the org. Isn’t god going to wipe their mind clean anyways? So you will forget all your loved ones and maybe get to have new children assuming you don’t die before Armageddon because if you do and you are resurrected supposedly you can’t marry or have kids ?

  Weird Jehovah’s Witnesses

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is it my imagination or are most witnesses weird, odd, and “different “?

  it seems every congregation has a couple of weirdo elders, pioneers and ministerial servants.

  and then you see those witnesses who attend meetings but most people seldom associate with them because... they are eccentric..

  Weird?

  Well, lets see, The organization is composed of a much of people who hope and pray that the world as we know it will be destroyed by god any day now.

  No sounds pretty normal to me.

  Is this what a loving god would do, or a man made organization?

  Kool-Aid anyone?
