Nothing in the bible makes sense. What about all the killing and raping and genocide in the bible? You all ok with that?

I have a question for born agains and jws. When Jesus ask Jehovah to forgive the men who killed him are they in heaven?
by booker-t inthis question gets people defensive because they have to question they own belief system.
born agains and jws always claim to follow the bible 100% but when this question comes up i always get silence from both groups.
because in the bible jesus says whatever he ask the father i will be granted.

Summary:
17 year old JW has been ordered by the court to undergo a transfusion if his doctors deem it necessary. The teen has blood cancer and has been undergoing chemotherapy. As a result of this he is now severely anaemic.
His doctor advised that he would need blood, but the teen said he would rip the iv out of his arm if the doctors tried to administer it.
His father wrote a scripture on a hospital whiteboard that he said proved that god forbade blood transfusions.
The doctor said without a transfusion the boy has only a 20% chance of survival.

If the Governing Body are the Faithful and Discreet Slave, Could the Governing Body all die at once?
by Eustace ini'm thinking that if all the governing body members all died at once, it would disprove this whole "the governing body are the faithful and discreet slave" business once and for all.. the faithful and discreet slave, according to watchtower teaching, will continue to exist into the time of the end.
so if the governing body all die at once, that means they ain't the faithful and discreet slave.. they need more youngish gb members quick!.

I think they had something like that here in Australia too. It was yesterday and the meeting went for 3 hrs and they had a talk from someone in bethel. That's what I heard.

Being honest & fair, can you think of anything that the Watchtower does that's beneficial to the public?
by Theocratic Sedition ini'm curious, as where i reside there's about to be a major brouhaha over the tax exempt status of a major player in this area.
reading and hearing the arguments from both sides conjured thoughts about the tax exempt status of religions and the arguments associated with that issue.
a significant portion of the arguments related to that issue center around how a tax exempt organization benefits it's community.

Preventing suicides?? Yeah that's a good one. Pointless really when they are causing them.
The WtS is a viscous vampire squid with its tentacles wrapped around the face of society, greedily sucking the life and energy out of humanity.

What If Before You Enter The Intersantum (KHall) you had to write, on a piece of paper...
by LoisLane looking for Superman in...what you think the top 10 doctrines of your, jw religion, (cited bible scripture as well...not cited corporation publications), are.
lol.
it is my guess, some of the answers would be "old" thinking that would get you df for not keeping up with, "this week's... what the governing body heard from god", stories, regurgitated as gospel.

>> But no I don't think "they" are in it for the money. I think they are basically true believers, that don't mind being taken care of along the way.
WRONG!!!!!
It's ALL about the $$$$$$. They hoard it because it's the most important thing to them.
Money = power. Power to cut yourself off from society. Power to live in comfort. Power to do nothing productive and live like parasites on the efforts of your gulled followers.
So, in the end, it's all about the dollars.
