  I like Simpsons about the pioneers. I am sure everyone has seen it.

  The Weezer album death to false metal is super funny. I would sure love to hear the story behind it. The funny part is I bet 98 percent of the public doesn't get it.

  How do you feel about the expression "The Truth"?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  2. experiences

  it's amazing how the expression "the truth" has become such an ingrained term used by witnesses.. "we have 'the truth'".

  "is he 'in the truth'?".

  most here have found out so many facts about the organisation, and felt the effects of being "gut-punched" as we realised these facts.. so how do you feel about the expression "the truth" now?.

  Christianity is suppose to be having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, not just membership in a club.

  Jehovah's Limp Witnesses Pointed Me to JW.org When I Was Willing to Talk

  several months ago i approached a nice young couple who were standing by a jw literature stand in my local community.

  they were pleasant and polite but incredibly stilted when it came to answering my "innocent" questions about their beliefs.

  this was the occasion of jws featuring the article headlined "is religion dying?".

  Something that always kind of bugged me was how little recognition the Wts received from the academic community. Every major university had a theology department in which you either study Christianity from a either religious or secular point of view.

  Once I started to do some of the research I started to realize the reason the Wts isn't even considered in the comparative religious discussion is pardon my language but a total and complete fucking joke. There isn't even a basic understanding of the relationship between the old and new testaments and what is being quoted.

  It Cant be defended because it's utter nonsense.

  Jehovah God is Real

  2. beliefs

  there are many on this site that do not believe that jehovah truly exists; that he is not a real being.

  but, he is as real as next breath you draw into your nostrils.. some of you say that there is no evidence that he exists.

  yet, none of you can prove that he does not exits.. cofty, (you come to mind), i appreciate that you have stated, without reservation, that you do not believe that god exists.. yet, you cannot prove it.. hope in jehovah..

  Christianity is a belief that you are reconciled to God though having a personal relationship with Jesus christ. That is the story of the new testament. Becoming born again. Entering into the new conevant.

  As a jehovah witness you believe that is only for the annoited that are sorely represented by the governing body. These are the only ones that have this relationship. Though your works and obedience to these men you will be saved.

  For example if you have a certain decision to make , you wouldnt pray it about and expect your conscience to drive your decision. The you look to jw.org and see what the society says about it.

  The idea you have some kind of super natural relationship with jehovah god goes against what the society teaches.

  I know the borg talk about your relationship with jehovah and how important it is to pray and such but you really have to look at what they teach.

  It's all for show.

  Actually if you child gets hit by a drunk driver and is bleeding to death, as a jehovah witness there is no point praying. It's your duty is to let your child die.

  The entire premise of the religion is you have no personal relationship with God. Jesus only died to give us the faithful slave. It's your works and obedience to these men , that is your salvation.

  You have no relationship with God. Don't try this Joel Osteen bullshit with you. You are a fraud.

  I really don't understand the supernatural declarations of faith as a jehovah witness.

  The entire premise of the religion is you are not able to have a personal relationship with God, it's only for the annoited.

  The Simpsons and Back to the Future 2 are better at making predictions than the watchtower corporation.
