  so let me get this straight.. the borg moves into their new corporate country club....

  by nowwhat? in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  with their luxurious lakeside condos.

  takes all the congregations funds promising new kingdom halls.

  but instead starts selling off kingdom halls ..then makes faithful old brothers and sisters drive 20-30 miles to another one, and .kicks out half the bethelites for only only tech savy college educated ones.can barely afford to send out printed publications anymore.

  Just occurred to me....

  These 'lakeside condos' that the governing body have moved into. Can't we see this on Google Maps/Earth? Anyone know how to do this?

  Where Can One Get Answers To Questions From JWs?

  by Cold Steel in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  there's also a fellow who calls himself the "watchman," but he seems as critical as many of the so-called "apostates.

  " is there a place where one can ask questions from knowledgeable believers or "a" believer?

  i really don't want to take the bible lessons.

  I think it would be really interesting to see a Mormon take on a JW.

  Let us know when you have a taker!

  Introduction

  by robrog8999 in

  2. friends

  hello all.... i am new here so i figured i'd make a quick post introducing myself and giving a brief intro as to who i am and what i'm here for... as well as to hopefully meet others.. so, i made a profile and in it i gave a pretty detailed explanation as to my intent here and exactly why i decided to participate in the boards.

  in case you don't read it, i'll give a brief summary.

  the name is robert.

  You got two things going on here.

  One is your misunderstanding/disagreement with the trinity doctrine. The other is your total lack of understanding of both the Mormon church and the Jehovah's Witness organisation.

  And I don't think you realise who you're speaking to. We get your long detailed explanations of 'doctrine' and JW/Mormon mechanics.

  I too suggest you get yourself down to the Kingdom Hall and stop trying to educate us. It's way too patronising and we're not buying it. If you claim to be searching for 'biblical purity' but it's taken years of study with the Mormons rather than about 20mins to see that they are ludicrous then you should maybe stop wasting your time and have a word with yourself.

  Can you prove that our entire universe and existence is not a computer simulation?

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. social
  2. current

  if you were a computer programmer and you were to create a simulated automated world, that would constantly evolve and self run after initial designs.

  first you would have to code the rules, laws, and core elements of this world.

  while this is being coded, the program is not run yet, so none of it exists.

  I think you watch too much TV. Scientists says that the artificial gravity on 'spaceships' on Star Trek and Star Wars etc is practically impossible so good luck with this theory!

  on a recent visit to our capital..such an adrenalin rush when i rounded a corner and spotted carters !!.

  wandered slowly over and pretend to be interested..asked could i take mag...initial impression (and i'm in no way snobbish) was 2 scruffy looking dowdy sisters wich irritated me i don't know why....i was allways struggling as a single mum but refused to look like a tramp!!.

  sister jumped asked if i was interested in religion i said no too much abuse etc ...she said she undwrstood and went on to blather about catholic abuse scandal!

  Actually that is a brilliant idea...

  I still have the Jackson testimony at the ARC on my phone. I could easily say yes I liked the latest JWTV video and ask them to watch a bit 😂

  Skin of My Teeth

  by WhatshallIcallmyself in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  an evidence for divine origin that has often been used (at least to me) is where job describes "...escap[ing] with the skin of my teeth".

  science is quoted as having discovered that teeth are covered in skin and therefore how would job have known something that modern science has only just discovered.

  i was reminded of this at this weeks meeting when this verse was quoted but was surprised when a commenter said how it wasn't necessary to mention this in light of other "evidence" in the bible.

  Job was obviously quite eloquent and had heard of hyperbole. Which is more than can be said for the feckless idiots posing as scholars in the WT writing department.

  Out on Facebook

  by disillusioned 2 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i am just venting because my sister has put on facebook that i am no longer "in the truth"!

  i have kept a very low profile for years and have silently faded.

  many witnesses i have bumped into are very friendly towards me, some from other congregations may not even be aware that i dont go anymore.

  Post that you were JUST considering coming to a meeting very soon but you felt a bit embarrassed and apprehensive. You had just built up the courage to do it but this has destroyed you forever and you'll never be able to now.

  Similar things in West Yorkshire.

  Dewsbury, Heckmondwike, Cleckheaton, Mirfield have 3 halls between them and I think 2 are being sold, congs amalgamated into 2 and sharing 1 hall.
