my story is long, heart stopping, tragic, and puzzling.
since i posted what was said to be my last post, i received a private message which sparked my attention about the watchtower.
immediately i did research, and have found not only proof from outside sources, but the watchtower openly admitting it.
Hi Mike, great to have you back! You can find refreshment for your soul here. And some answers. Not all of them, but some.
Because the WT treat people like idiots, it stands to reason there will be some here. We do all love you however! Keep asking, keep searching, life is just beginning.

in ancient times , o.t.speak, god dealt with humans in a variety of ways , dreams ,visions ,prophets,and prophetesses , then apparently 2000 years ago he must have said, i`m not doing this anymore.they , my followers will just have to beleive and put faith in what has been written down up untill the 20th century of the common era.
approximately 4000 years of human history where god has communicated with humans .
if you beleive that .. their has been no communication between god , with any human , whether by dreams , visions , or prophets , for the past 2000 years.. and may i add, their has been no communication from jesus during these past 2000 years either, giving us enlightend /updates about his sayings /prophecys that he gave while on earth 2000 years ago.. please explain.. smiddy.
I agree Bill, endless whinging but never a proper answer to a perfectly legitimate question! Come on Tec! Have you noticed how these floaty jesus lovers NEVER answer a direct question?

Hi Tec. What do you see in these visions and dreams? What does christ say to you?

so im reading "why evokution is true" by coyne and the page im on is talking about darwin and natural selection:.
"but natural selection was also the part of evolutionary theory con- sidered most revolutionary in darwins time, and it is still unsettling to many.
selection is both revolutionary and disturbing for the same reason: it explains apparent design in nature by a purely materialistic process that doesnt require creation or guidance by supernatural forces.
Perry?? I' m a patient guy....

Perry ""Get right with God through the blood of Jesus and he'll take you places and show your things you NEVER DREAMED of. He did it for me."
This is a legitimate question Perry. To which places has god taken you, and what has he shown you that a normal person has never dreamed of before? How has he done this? How can you guarantee that for someone else?
Cheers Perry. GA

this kind of satanic propaganda is obviously satan "misleading" and changing the evidence to suit...and boy is he good at it and very busy doing it!.
leg bone gives up oldest human dna.
I am leaning towards Satan side,even as bad as he is.
Nice point NaJW, but why is satan bad? Who did he kill, or allow to be raped, or has he committed genocide on a mass scale?
I agree with you that morally, the god of the bible is far far worse than the devil of the same collection of fables. But then I dont believe in any supernatural ying and yang, so have no need to side with any of them.

Your tongue is very very firmly in your cheek I take it?
this past week's wt study lesson was entitled: 'pioneering strengthens our relationship with god'.. under the subheading 'remaining in the full-time service' in par 14 the wt has the nerve to give this admonition to pioneers: .
'desiring to learn from jesus' example, a pioneer does well to keep in mind that the more material things he has, the more he will have to maintain , repair, or replace.'.
i don't think the gb or anyone in the writing department has the freedom to speak on giving adivce on the matter of 'material things' given the fact that wt has close to a billion dollars in real estate and loads of money in various bank accounts; given the fact that gb is currently building themselves new living quarters with who knows what sort of comforts and other amenities.
So they dont act like rock stars? Did these 8 men write the scriptures? Why the hell are they signing for goverment members? Are they trying to curry favour with the goverment? (W99 5/15)

Point well made SFPW! And i would add as well that while this 'encouragment' to live simply is given, everyone must also give us the money you have left. "You mean you have no money left this month? Oh ok, just use the credit card machine in the assembly hall foyer then! Ahh! Doesnt it feel all cosy and spiritual to now have NOTHING to buy your kids a school bag? Oh thats right! They shouldnt be going to school!!!!"
