  so let's say i've thought about having some vinyl lettering printed up and stuck on the back windshield of the car to publicize ttatt...what should it say?.

  "do you know ttatt?".

  "jehovah's witnesses are a cult that breaks up families".

  Quote the recent Watchtower " be ready to do anything we tell you to do... whether is reasonable or not" and then give credit to the Watchtower. I am paraphrasing, not quoting, of course

  My witnessing to an atheist was my last witnessing!

  in the field service, during my preaching to a householder, she interrupted me and said: i would ask something, after getting answer you can continue!

  i said ok. she said: i was not believing in the existence of a god until recently.

  last month, in the middle of the night, i got an emergency call from my hospital to attend to a complicated caesarean case.

  God could have prevented the whole incident altogether and save the poor lady the mental agony. What about all the other ladies who did get raped somewhere in the world? I am sure some were also doctors. I guess God was too busy helping this one lady and couldn't help others that night. He may not be a multitasker after all; He can only help one person at a time.

  "The Watchtower's Achilles' Heel"

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if reasoning with a jehovahs witness on the watchtower societys interpretations of the kingdom of god, parousia, the cross, blood, and so on is unlikely to break the wtss mental stranglehold, what then is its achilles heel?.

  As always the content is excellent and the presentation superb.

  Since I know you are a perfectionist, let me nitpick.

  On page 13 change

  "Act’s report of the meeting’s message".

  to

  "Acts' report of the meeting’s message".

  it just came out yesterday that the nsa has spied on the vatican and pope francis.

  when i went over my parents house yesterday, you could see the excitement, the energy in their eyes when they talked about it.

  my dad even pumped his fist like he won something when he was talking about it.

  Emeth,

  The apostles did not get it wrong. Jesus spoke very clearly and misled them. It was Jesus who either lied or promised and had no power to deliver. When are you gonna realize that "this generation" died almost two thousand years ago.

  There's hope. Thank you Al Gore for inventing the internet, which has, and will continue to liberate many people from the bonds of superstition.

  Agree with Farkel and JWFacts. SBF is B.S.ing or he is nuts. He reminds me very much of my own brother, who died many years ago when he was only 34. He craved the opportunity to call the attention of others, especially by doing the unexpected and the crazy. His untimely death may have been related to the fact that he always displayed an abnormal behavior, including taking gratuitous risks, even with his own life. Somehow my brother was well enough to finished university and become an architect, but definitely, he never fit in, and he loved it, or so it appeared.

  Catching the Governing Body with their pants down around the ankles

  the following information is significant and extremely useful.. for what?.

  for proving a point about jehovah's channel of communication.. what about jehovah's channel of communication?.

  it is a fool's paradise of misinformation, awkward and ridiculous assertions and hard-headed nonsense presented as superior divine insider knowledge.. ***.

  Excellent and very valid point. It took them 15 years for the light to get brighter, just about the average life for their teachings. Unfortunately, a new more compassionate understanding of the blood as a life saver may be loaded with too many civil law suits, therefore the old light will have to stay much longer than any other "revelation". Sad and sickenning!

  an average of five kingdom halls being constructed daily, almost 8 million brothers and sisters, dissemination of bible literature in 595 languages, 111,795 congregations worldwide, distribution of 179 million bibles available in 116 languages, 239 countries where jehovah's witnesses have a presence, etc.. need i go on?.

  on the other hand........... crisis of conscience, freeminds, the awaa, jw.net, ummmmmm........hmmm........idk six screens or something?

  Success? The number of hours to get a single baptism is 6 or 7,000. Add to that the fact that most baptisms are indoctrinated children from birth. Success was the 90's. You can only get children, depressed people, and very poor third world country people. I guess your argument is not very persuasive, nor are your doctrines and bible studies.
