  How smart were the ancients?

  by Coded Logic in

  1. social
  2. current

  growing up as a jw, i always thought the ancients were scientific morons who knew next to nothing.

  ashamedly, i used to run around citing isaiah 40:22 as proof of the bible's 'divine authorship' because it talked about "the circle of the earth".

  as though this were somehow an unknowable before spaceflight.

  It's what fascinated Russell that still enthralling to the masses that's the pyramids.

  "Even if this wasn't the truth, I would still stay. This is the best life to live..."

  by HereIgo in

  2. experiences

  i was recently told this by a jw family member when trying to get through to them.

  does this quote indicate that maybe such ones have considered that the jw's may not have the truth after all?

  or is that just my wishful thinking?

  I think it's possible for a change of trend in JW growth

  just like after decades of memorial partakers declining and now reversed.

  this information age might reverse the trend of jw membership.

  Suing The Watchtower Corporation For Pain And Suffering Caused By Clandestine Trial Of Corporatly Biased Impartial Judges (A Real Ordeal)

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i mean they routinely question the "invited" guest of dishonor to their proceedings: if they have any prohibited recording devices and won't allow any witnesses to be present.

  this is cruelly horrible treatment of a human being,, i say this can be a slam dunk in the courts.

  maybe not millions but definitely some nice returns for the person and his lawyer.

  Brokeback if the lawyers get a taste of Jw blood , but if you think of a small nation of 8 million paying their taxes to the Warwick corporation, it would take a pretty hard monetary lawsuit, a big class action with a pro bono rockstar lawyer taking their ill gotten gains and returning it to its rightful owners.

  Because Of The BORG:

  by HiddlesWife in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  many of the women and men have not achieved the life title or status plus goals she/he/they may have tried to achieve or embark on.

  for example: (a) some women are only spiritual sisters.

  they may have worked on to become a wife, mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, etc.

  Sisters who genuinely put their trust in the org have miss out on finding a husband and sometimes menopause has arrived which has caused personal heartache for them. We can see from bible accounts and IV conception that it affects women in a great way not being able to have children. This pain bestowed on these sisters is purely a cult decision from men who have lived sheltered lives ruling from Warwick.

  They will sight scriptures showing Jews travelling long distances to their annual pilgrimages, so dear brothers buy more fuel and continue supporting our free labour construction company.

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i bring this up because of an article in the supplement of the sunday mail in victoria australia "stellar" that pregnant serena williams is a devout (ihate that word ) jehovahs witness.

  i have sent a letter to the editor about it ,i wonder if it gets published.. has the wt ever distanced themselves from the claims that serena herself has claimed to be a witness ?

  when accepting a win in one of her succesful matches ?.

  They a not going to rock the Williams boat due to the media attention if Williams turned against the WT. No apostate would receive better media attention than being a tennis star. Tony tiight pants verse Venus in a short shirt what a wrestling match.
