,When will the penny drop with religious people that GOD does not need money to do what he needs to do to alleviate the suffering of his people ,? after all he is the Almighty GOD isnt he ?
Why does he even need money.?

It`s one thing all religions have in common is God needs your valuable things ,he needs your monetary donations ,your gifts ( material gifts of course ,estates left after you die etc.)
Why the God who created all things needs YOUR MONEY is beyond me.
The more blatant " cult" religions are the worst of course.
To be fair I must acknowledge that some religions do a great service in humanitarian needs for people who need it.
providing hospitals ,health clinics,food kitchens ,and shelters for the homeless ,and people with mental problems who need care.
Jehovahs Witnesses dont fit anywhere in these groups except to say to anyone in need :
"Here is a magazine go and be well fed " and then turn their back on them .
They offer no practical help to anyone and they never have ,and they never will.

JW`s Lie about Christendom hiding the Name Jehovah.or its equivalent Yahweh
by smiddy injehovahs witnesses have been outspoken over the years/decades that christendom have been hiding or obscuring or even eliminating gods name jehovah from the general public.. how true is that statement .?.
1. it was a catholic monk of the 13th century that first coined the name jehovah in the english language.. 2.the roman catholic douay version of the bible does have the name jehovah in it.
about the 16th century.

Pope Paul V1 sent a Goodwill message from the Vatican along with leaders of many nations on the Apollo 11 moon landing contained on a disc that was left on the moon.
Pope paul the V1 quotes from Psalm 8 in his goodwill message where he uses the name Jahweh for the name of God
Jehovahs Witnesses falsely claim to have covered the earth with their witnessing and making the name of God known throughout the earth .
They have never been able to witness or operate openly in strict Muslim countries { would that be close to a third of the worlds population ?}
Not only have the Catholics covered the earth before them they have even put the name of God on the moon thanks to pope Paul V1 for any future visitors/aliens to be witnessed to.

Update: My current situation
by Issa init's been about two months since i stopped attending meetings, came to the conclusion that the org is not the truth, and i'm currently dealing with some problems since leaving the org.
i want to discuss these problems and hopefully get helpful advice.. discovering the truth about ourselves is a lifetime's work, but it's worth the effort - fred rogers.
my current situation in this: i faded and hold off on writing a disassociation letter.

Whatever you do ,do not meet with Elders or participate in a Judicial meeting and if you are ever confronted with an Elder be non committal and evasive at all times and never meet with two of them .
Always use an excuse to get away from them .
They have no power over you unless you give it to them
In reality they are nobodys in the world they are only somebody in the religion if you give them that power.

Those who DO NOT get a resurrection?
by stuckinarut2 inso we know that by jw logic, the idea is that everyone who dies is acquitted of their sin and will get a resurrection in the "new world".
however, those directly destroyed by god, or at his command will not.
(for example, those destroyed in the flood.

If the Bible doesn`t say who will and who wont get a resurrection ( and it doesn`t) then it`s PRESUMPTUOUS of the WT/JW religion to speculate on that question one way or another.
Some other presumptuous statements made by the GB of Jehovahs Witnesses / IBSA :
Jesus Christ became King in 1914 ( invisibly)
God/Jesus chose members of the IBSA as the Faithful & Discreet Slave
IBSA / Jehovahs Witnesses were chosen by God as the only true religion on earth

The Watchtower's Medical Expert
by Lee Elder ina new article by s. sparrow, published today at ajwrb, investigates dr. joachim boldt, one of the watchtower's “bloodless medicine” experts.
a notorious “medical pretender” who has exposed jw's to additional needless risk.
watchtower continues to cite this source, and fails to expose him as a fraud.

If they are basing their recommendations on information from an incompetent source, maybe they are legally liable for the damage that results? Can you say class-action lawsuit?
Just google the man's name and you will get an 'ear-full' of whats up with him. He's become more or less notorious.94 Retractions and counting for this 'medical expert'. Now two more 'research papers' are being questioned - in these instances it is for manipulating data.

Jesus never signed anything and never wrote a book or even a pamphlet and the GB members reckon they follow first century christianity.?
Come to think of it did the first century Bible writers autograph their writings ? for prosperity ?

I have a lot of respect for Leolaia`s research and I have no problem accepting what she has written as being accurate.
