  No Religion is growing

  by Giordano in

  2. current

  (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.. .

  Can you be disfellowshipped for getting abducted by Dogman / Bigfoot / Aliens?

  by John_Carter_1912 in

  in episode 213 of "dogman encounters" jehovah's witness valerie grogan tells accounts of her, her mother, and her brother coming in contact with the dogman.. for those of you that don't know, the dogman is a werewolf-type humanoid creature.

  there are about 7 different types of them and vic cundiff has over 243 episodes of long interviews with people that have been in contact with them.. around the 4:45 mark, she says that her mother kept telling the elders that the creatures was out there but that the elders kept saying their whole family was demon-possessed and that they would disfellowship them.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6ncvszwzue.

  Any ideas about what the ‘special’ talk is on Memorial Day?

  by Bubbles001 in

  the family are very excited because there’s a special interruption happening this friday which has supposedly only happened once before when rutherford announced jesus’ ruling in heaven.

  requires tuning into jw.org.

  meant to be this coming friday before the memorial.

  was it about 15 years ago?

  I think it's been about 12 years ago. I remember being afraid that a girl I liked would die at Armageddon, so I asked Jehovah to help her get baptized before it was too late. She wasn't even an associate mind you, just a regular girl. I was so stupid.

  What Does the WTS say is the mark for survival of Armaggeddon--Baptism

  if you have not yet come to know and to accept as a way of life the righteous decrees of jehovah, you have no time to lose.

  you must act quickly if you are to stand before jehovah’s executional forces with the mark of true christian identification.

  I don't know how one walks around everyday thinking the people they love the most in the world deserve to annihilated, zapped out of existence and forgotten. What a way to live.

  This is another example of how similar this cult and other organized religious cults are to the mob. This mentality keeps you ready to turn your back on ANYBODY. If a person can become callous enough to believe that their own blood relatives are deserving of death, then cutting off association with a spiritual brother or sister is a piece of cake. It's just like in the mob. If the boss says somebody's gotta go, then they gotta go, and you might be the one that has to pull the trigger. Or it might be the way Al Pacino's character in Donnie Brasco describes it: "When they send for you, you go in alive, you come out dead, and it's your best friend that does it." Now tell me that doesn't sound like a judicial meeting.

  I woke up when I found out that white blood cells are in milk. I found out about the really bad stuff soon after that.

  Hope someone does a documentary on JWs the same way Leah Remini did on Scientology

  i will be eternally grateful to leah remini for her docuseries on scientology.

  it is what helped me to start waking up and seeing the org for what it is.

  i remember thinking huh “they call it disconnecting, we do the same thing.

  And not only do I hope that someone does it, but I also hope that it's either aired on ABC, NBC, or CBS. Other channels are fine, but it would definitely be seen by the most people on one of those 3. I know for a fact that my folks would have seen Leah's episode had it been on ABC instead of A&E.

  Deprogramming myself from JW brainwashing has really affected my view of God. Just like the people I've preached to my entire life, I cannot for the life of me understand why a loving God would allow suffering. When a mass shooting occurs, everybody always says that they will pray for the victims and their families. What's the point? If God cared he wouldn't have let it happen in the first place. He is ostensibly all-knowing and all-powerful, yet he does nothing to help us.

  This reminds me of the time my dog had puppies. It was a hot summer day, and one of her pups somehow managed to get herself stuck in a cinder block. When I walked out and saw her, I could tell that she was in distress. There's no telling how long she had been there, and I knew she needed water. So did I just fold my arms and say something stupid like, "I work in mysterious ways. I have a plan for her, she just doesn't know it yet. I'm allowing her to go through this so she'll become a stronger puppy,"? No. I actually bent over, picked her up, and gave her water. It was very easy for me to do. Had I not intervened, she would've died of dehydration. You would think that it would be just as easy for God to stop a mass shooting, or cancer, or plane crashes, or famine, or rape, or serial killers, but nope. He works in mysterious ways...(if he even exists.)
