  Evolution Gap - Where's the Fur?

  by shadow in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  evolution paints human ancestors covered with fur.

  fur has several benefits as stated by britannica "the pelts of fur-bearing animals are called true furs when they consist of two elements: a dense undercoat, called ground hair, and longer hairs, extending beyond that layer, called guard hair.

  the principal function of ground hair is to maintain the animal’s body temperature; that of guard hair is to protect the underlying fur and skin and to shed rain or snow.".

  If evolution were true we should be furry. We should also have a bum rope, like spiders do.

  Does anyone else squirm uncomfortably in disbelief?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  as we know, every month on the "official broadcasting" presentation, a new "music video" is presented.. can these possibly be any more cringe-worthy??.

  the words, music, singing are so, so bad....i mean, so bad!.

  surely witnesses are not so stupid that they don't harbor secret feelings of awkwardness when they see these?.

  Stephen Lett alone should make anyone squirm uncomfortably in disbelief. What a sick joke the GB broadcasts are.

  It can't be helping their cause at all, putting these miserable sods on show was a mistake.

  Happiness and Freedom On A Paradise Earth?

  by Disassociated Lady 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  at a recent meeting there was a watchtower article about life in paradise.

  they were saying that even when witnesses finally get there they will still be under the strict instructions from the elders and gb.

  they may be given jobs that they will find unpleasant, also the preaching work will be ongoing because of all the resurrected people who need to learn about why they are given another chance.

  If the GB and elders are going to have control for 1000 years, the world will be a dangerous place for children with the amount of pedophiles getting around.

  Satan's system punishes pedophiles, Jehovah's organization protects them.

  There is no amount of fruit platters or pet pandas that will sweeten that deal.

  Self-righteous Watchtower vs the pagan-inspired New Testament.

  by Island Man in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  watchtower refuses to translate stauros as cross despite having no evidence to refute the long-standing ancient belief that jesus died on a cross; and in spite of evidence that the romans were in fact using crosses in executions by jesus' day.

  they shun the word simply because of the use of crosses in ancient pagan religions.. watchtower refuses to refer to their places of worship with the word church because of the word's supposed pagan origin or past usage to refer to pagan places of worship.. now contrast watchtower's self-righteous attitude of avoiding the use of all words having pagan religious usages, with the new testament verse of 2 peter 2:4:.

  certainly god did not refrain from punishing the angels who sinned, but threw them into tarʹta·rus, putting them in chains of dense darkness to be reserved for judgment.. tartarus is a word that had rich pagan mythological meaning when it was written in the nt.

  They don't even like the fact that they are members in what's called "religion".

  They call it "da troof"

  I think the message is; if you don't waste time and money on boats, Jehovah will reward you with a boat.

  2. experiences

  do you remember that my dad passed away last year and i was going back to the witnesses after 26 years?

  i got reinstated after going there for 9 months.

  in the 5 months since then i felt the men in the congregation didn't want me there.

  I was questioned by him aggressively for 2 hours, but I stood up to him
  

  That's 2 hours longer than I could handle.

  People hate God?

  by looter in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it is a pain that certain individuals pride themselves on hating god, who created everything.

  like it's understandable that you choose to not believe in him because of your selfishness or thinking skills but to hate him is forcing it a bit.

  i'm very thankful that those such as myself have the courage to believe in the lord.

  I hate God in the same way I hate the prison warden from The Shawshank Redemption.

  These mean old fictional characters are easy to hate.

  It all depends on the local Pharisees.

  Most elders are willing to accept a few pedophiles in the congregation, but beards are a step to far.

  Did the flood happen?

  by BlackWolf in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so we were talking about noah for our family worship tonight and it ended with a little debate between me and my parents about how the flood was possible.

  you know, where did the water come from, how did all the animals fit, etc.

  of course it led nowhere and my parents came up with some strange theories like that there was "an expanse of water in the sky" and that's where all the water came from.

  Ahhh...the old Golden-Age magazine, it's full of those gems.

  It's too bad today's JWs don't read those, most of it is profound bullshit.

  Seriously dude......you don't think Bonham could play that in one take??! Where specifically do you think he multi tracked parts? His triplets are done with a single kick, many drummers have developed technique to play those triplets the way he did, and at a faster tempo.

  This is blasphemy.

  No need to respond actually, I am going to bow out of this one.

  Enjoy your music :)
