Cofty I am pretty sure he said and meant exactly what I said. I know still being a good jw at heart you are pretty good at the mental gymnastics but my post and his comment were completely straight forward.

I know this jw who goes from job to job getting canned for leaving watchtowers in the coffee room at work or quits at the first hint his job might interfere with field service or an assembly. He is nearly 40 and still lives at home.
Man this religion sure makes you a loser.

Oh for FFS. Valentines day is purely a hallmark holiday.
It's amazing the mental gymnastics a jw has to do to be offended by something Iike valentine's day while completely ignoring the wts history of doctrinal flip flops and failed prophecies. I call bullshit.
Jws are just narsastic trolls whose only pleasure in life is to piss people off.
Kind of like a certain poster here.

Why I'm not agnostic
by Coded Logic ini think the time to be agnostic is when you have evidence on both sides of a claim.
for example, i'm agnostic about the existence of a historical jesus.
i think a reasonable case can be made that jesus was a man who was turned into a legend over a period of a couple of decades.

Cofty actually does know everything about everything. There are no mysteries. It's not just a rotten pompous trait left over from his jw days.
He is the smartest man alive.

Incredible documentary about the exclusive brethren and their extreme shunning policy
by Truthexplorer injust watched this remarkable documentary about the exclusive brethren here in the uk.
their shunning policy is remarkably like watchtowers policy except even more extreme.
its heartbreaking how families are torn apart by such man made policies based on their interpretation of scriptures.

I use to live in this small town of maybe 1000 people and about 200 of them were exclusive brethren. They owned all these large businesses with the majority of people working at these places not being brethren. Everything they touched seemed to turn to gold.
What was really odd is they had two coffee room and two sets of washrooms. These people would not talk to you if it wasn’t necessary. They wouldn’t eat with you, have coffee with you etc etc. They really took the whole being separate from the world serious. They did pay well but didn’t think twice about firing you if you didn’t work hard, were late etc etc. They also won’t eat in restaurants because of the worldly people and contact. Of course they would get take out.
They have no TV or internet but drive $60,000 trucks and cars and lived in $500,000 homes. The kids go to public school till grade six, and then they have their own school. Education past grade 12 is non-existent, which is really strange because they do run some pretty serious businesses. Not just window washing and janitorial outfits.
Every few years they would build a new church if there business did well to get out of paying tax on the money. Of course it would just sit there vacant but they would keep it looking really nice. Of course there were no windows. If you walk in Sunday morning to attend a service, a few elders will met you at the door and ask you to leave. Jws were told to leave and not come back in Door to Door service.
I sure don’t miss that town much. Weird place, weird people. They were even worse than the JWs when it came to shunning. Leaving won’t just cost you your family, but your job.

JW teach salvation though works and obedience to seven men in Brooklynn and ignore all basic tenants of the New Testament, thus they are not Christians.
Who cares
No one has ever accused Jehovah Witnesses of being Christian scientists. Another stupid cult.
Bullshit. (Saved though grace etc. etc.)
Bullshit. JW only use the NWT
Bullshit again, the NWT deliberately erases the deity of Christ. No serious bible scholar says it is a real translation.
Bullshit again, JW are encouraged to have limited contact with “worldly people “and “worldly organizations “.
Bullshit again, JWs refer to all over religions as “ False Religion “ and attending a simple meeting at another church, mosque or temple could get you disfellowshipped. (Unless they have a different definition of what disrespectful means.
What a pile of shit.

Wow
Trying to compare a soul sucking 24 7 cult to a Joel Osteen type 45 min pep talk once a week.
And you can't figure out which one is worse?
What a stupid thread.
