  How Do You Know You Are In The Wrong Religion?

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i believe this list which many of us worked on needs to see the light of day again...and added to if possible.. you know you are in the wrong religion:1. when the all important question is not: "do you believe in the lord jesus christ?"....but....

  "do you believe in the "faithful and discreet slave" appointed in brooklyn in 1919?"2.

  when you will be refused baptism if: a. you don't believe jerusalem was destroyed in 607 bc (whereas all non-jw scholars, all encyclopedias and all history books say this event took place in 587 bc.)b.

  The currently missing 'Titan' submarine. What do you think?

  by SydBarrett in

  any opinions are just speculation, but my guess, being morbid, is that there was not a hull breach and implosion (although that would have been the most merciful fate for them), but instead the amateur level of building this thing meant that it lost power and communication and got itself tangled in the titanic's wreckage or is sitting on the actual seabed with no way to release ballast to resurface.

  terrifying.

  what's your gut feeling?

  Wasn`t the submersible still in the experimental stage ? It all seems so amatuerish and not professional at all.

  I don`t wish harm to anybody ,but this does seem so foolhardy.

  PROOF Mormons have the truth

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  daniel prophesied that god would “set up a kingdom” that would “never be destroyed” and would “stand for ever” (daniel 2:44).

  in making this prophecy, he spoke of the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints... and it will continue to progress until it has “filled the whole earth”... hundreds of thousands of people are baptized every year.

  the book of mormon is being translated in many languages.

  It just goes to prove having a better education doesn`t mean your going to be more intelligent .

  It just means your going to be a more educated twit.

  An analysis of the recent 153rd Gilead Graduation talk by Jesse Morris (member of the US Branch Committee and son of Anthony Morris III)

  article from the last days newsletter (june 5-11, 2023).

  it has been said that by reading the watchtower and awake!

  magazines, along with other publications of jehovah’s witnesses, a person will receive, over a period of years, a considerable and broad education.. …would you like to grow in knowledge, obtaining an education of even much greater value than can be received in any college?

  i think this was brought up ages ago however i just watched it this morning.. have you seen it and what did you think of it?.

  i thought it portrayed their beliefs spot on.. actually going back many years now in one of the congregations we attended two female young adults were obviously in a lesbian relationship by their actions together.. i would give it **** out of 5 stars..

  I find it interesting that after the cult people still hold on to religion....

  by BeaverEater in

  im not an atheist, makes no mathematical sense, nor does the buy(more) bull(shit) god make any logical sense... maybe a deist on my best day, in the end you cannot get something from nothing, paradox if you ask me... but in reality i just dont care.

  while in, and moving out of the cult, its like a roller coaster, emotionally, yet, for me, over time, i just take it one day at a time, and if appeasing some special deity is required, well i guess i failed.

  lol.

  The premise is that something always existed, God and the universe came from something.

  I just can`t get my head about that statement,?

  What came first ? GOD or the universe ?

  Or was it the universe and then GOD ?

  How could either one be something that always existed ?
