  Just like an abused wife returning to her husband, it's that pull factor. Also if you call your religion truth then the followers my believe you control the resurrection.

  i would really like to read the thoughts of an creationist as they lie on their deathbed.

  their honest thoughts.

  their terrors.

  You have to try stop worrying about the things you can't change , if there is some invisible force in the skies I have seen him interfere in to much suffering and when your dead there's no more pain.

  i said god is not giving them much of a chance to hear his message, i think it's one to 3 million ratio.

  i said if wt paid prime internet space they could beam their propaganda to everyone instantly, then you could show the world mr lett live , and explain how he is to rule the world from heaven.

  then i asked that god seems to like the anglo nations , i should of asked how many chinese and indian are on the gb..

  Are JWs "mind trained" to be habitual liars?

  by nonjwspouse in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i don't mean overly obvious, or otherwise meaning to cause harm, but taught to lie for the purpose of avoidance.

  this type of lying can be pervasive in areas of life that are not just to avoid discussions with people who have questions about the jw, etc.

  my husband will lie/be deceitful about the silliest, simple things.

  Most of us have a one time lied about being on this forum , the religion has a word for this theocratic warfare. Get a public debate with the magic seven then you would see the patriarchal top of WT preform the magical art of lying.

  I used to like rural witnessing because some days in Australia we ( as in a whole car load) could go all day and only speak to two people, and hours of driving anround and reminiscence about all the plunder we would get as the spoils of the Great War of Armageddon

  Another JW Urban Legend Thread

  threads about jw urban legends are nothing new on this forum.

  they are loads of fun to read.

  how many of you remember the one about the teenager who skipped the meeting and decided to get into a car with his worldly friends and they worldly guys decided to rob a store and the jw didn't know they were going to do so but he was arrested simply for being with them?.

  I was at a meeting and they described how an African witch doctor could see demons behind everyone except JWs. There you go the spiritual truths revealed through a witch doctor.

  today i read some news story's about the property deals of jw.org in brooklyn.

  they made good money and good connections.. but i'm sure jw.org made a very, very big mistake in brooklyn.

  they did.. they sold and are selling all the property for money.
