  What's the point?

  by Incognigo Montoya in

  1. jw

  it has always baffled me, if earth and it's inhabitants, are god's sole sentient creation (aside from the angel's and demons) along with the animal life, why create such a vast galaxy, along with billions of other galaxies, with their trillions of stars and planets, etc.

  what's the point?

  our galaxy surely would've been enough, in a great void of blackness.

  The point is to remind man to fear God.

  not sure if this topic has being covered recently.. my son asked me a question if the jw's have in the recent months being pushing a new end date to the system?

  he was telling me about how his mother has being on him again about the urgency of the end of this system of things and he needs to do something asap.

  i told him i am not aware of any new dates as i have being away from the cult for over 20 years.

  dream scenario: everyone is made aware of all the wrongs, the false prophecies / csa problem / double standards - .

  and they would not shun, how many would jump ship?.

  my parents are fully aware of the sins of the org.

  No Religion is growing

  (cnn)for the first time "no religion" has topped a survey of americans' religious identity, according to a new analysis by a political scientist.

  the non-religious edged out catholics and evangelicals in the long-running general social survey.. https://www.cnn.com/2019/04/13/us/no-religion-largest-group-first-time-usa-trnd/index.html.

  ryan burge, a political scientist at eastern illinois university and a baptist pastor, found that 23.1% of americans now claim no religion.. .

  This happened first in the Soviet Union and the end result is a return to religion for the ones that survived totalitarism.

  Why do some JWs love seeing others get disfellowshipped?

  by Tameria2001 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i'm not sure how many in the organization is like this, but there some jws who love seeing others get disfellowshipped, and my father-in-law is one of those.

  he became a jw because he loved the idea of being the head of the household, and lording it over his family.

  as a jw he is very hypocritical, my husband would tell stories of how they would celebrate christmas until his mother-in-law called him on it.

  i am head over heels in love with a man who was raised jw.

  i believe he is fighting demons, however, and is torn between what his heart wants to do, his beliefs, his depression & lack of self confidence.

  he has had 2 wives.

  The Truth about the bible

  by TTWSYF in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it really is common sense, but nobody here seems to recognize or acknowledge this blatant and obvious truth.. the holy bible is the result of the catholic liturgy.

  they used these scriptures in their religious practices and confirmed which books would and would not be part of their cannon.

  they picked, preserved and promoted these books and gave 'the word of god' to the world.. i know that pisses off some folks, but it is the truth [not the 'truth'tm].

  The Catholic Church had a message. Thanks to judaism and protestantism this message is now lost forever.

  i've been a member of this board three years longer than i was a jehovah's witness (eighteen vs fifteen).

  i'm sure i've put in more hours here than i did in field service, it was more fun as well.

  anybody else with similar numbers?.
