  Ex JWs who use the catch phrase "Friends"

  by jojorabbit in

  2. experiences

  its a personal pet peeve to me but i hate it when ex jws use the catch phrase friends.

  this was used at every convention and many meetings i went to.

  the friends, mother and others.

  Just ask them. Witness never borrow terms, ideas, or research. If we dig we can even probably find some other over lapping story.

  Date of Adam's "Creation?

  by Slidin Fast in

  how do jws resolve these conflicting facts.. 1. no matter how you spin it, bible chronology calculates to circa 4000 bc for adam's creation.

  i followed the trail many years ago and that's what it adds up to.. 2. the most cursory investigation of any branch of relevant science puts man's habitation on the earth as hugely earlier than that.

  it's now so well-proved that anyone disputing it is guilty of wilful ignorance.

  Seemingly 4000 bc is the start of written records. Correlation versus causation conundrum

  Simple Question Re 1914

  by Slidin Fast in

  wt claims that satan was thrown out of heaven in october 1914 precipitating ww!

  and the end times.

  a small problem with that is ww1 started on july 28th 1914 whilst satan was still in heaven picking his nose.. how did we not see this and waste years of precious life?

  Traditionally October 4/5 is the start of God's year. That is when "everything " takes place. Ignore mixing the Gregorian calendar and Jewish days starting at sunset.

  I still have moments about the date every year-- ingrained training. Along with aluminum pots

  It is telling that almost all these events happen in a gun free zone. It is reported that the teachers wanted to be allowed to carry but were denied. note the shooter was taken out by an ICE agent, (a supposed racist bad guy) We know little of the actual motives, means, or trigger.

  Do not confuse the blm crap with getting off the plantation. Most protesters were whites who never gave done grunt labor. The rest were thugs who are decried by ALL normal humans.

  JULY 15TH STUDY EDITION :"If ever that evil slave..." page 24

  by raymond frantz in

  box on page 24 of the july 15th titled :"if ever the evil slave....".

  jesus has placed the weightiest of responsibilities on the faithful and discreet slave-namely,overseeing the domestics and giving out spiritual food atthe proper time.

  jesus knew that those with greater responsibility have greater accountability.

  So......hypothetically the slave is not real, or ( my opinion) the self proclaimed slave is indeed wicked. By being deceiving, greedy, and haughty.

  This is over-the-top. Jesus told me to hide under the bed.

  Are cubits metric, customary, or pyramid inches? Paper, cloth, masks?

  It will be breaking news in about 6 months. Prayer will help🤨 Any ransom will be by donation.

  Funny how simplified lifestyle requires a servant.

  in a previous thread i mentioned how the society took down the pyramid monument at rosemont cemetary in pittsburgh.

  well now there's something being built on the same site.

  i'm thinking a high watchtower monument.

  Betting on a base for a new marker. I'll leave the blue square jokes to others. But it is likely done by LDC volunteers ( my joke)

  Homeopathy and Jehovah's Witnesses.

  years ago, the jws did not like modern medicine.

  vaccines and other things were all deemed bad.

  this gave rise to a lot of jws getting into alternative medicines.

  The weirdest ones are the aura readers and the eye readers.

  JWs alone cannot be t h e support for this industry.

  I use it some, and it seems to I work. Wife, a few friends too. It may be psychological.

  It I s true about the fringe society. I grew up thinking only witnesses ate health food. Before hippies, beatniks
