we had a lovely meal and conversation, but then the conversation turned to rome, which is a city all of us had visited not too long ago.. we spoke about the sights as you normally do, the vatican, st peters bassilica, the sistene chapel, and so on.

but then i mentioned the catacombs.

i am impressed by the sheer size of the catacombs.

Freedom of Thought and JW Opposers

does freedom of thought really obtain in this forum?

are those who have left god's organization and jehovah god himself actually now more open-minded and unbiased?

if those who espouse atheistic thoughts or those who believe every vile utterance spoken against jehovah's people think they are now speaking from some olympian perspective, i beg to differ.

Why is this an APOSTATE site?!?
by LaraK in
1. forum
2. suggestions
i made a big mistake when signing up at this supposed website for jehovah's witnesses.

after reading some things on this site it has become apparent to me that this site is nothing put another pathetic site for apostates: people who betrayed jehovah, left the truth, and are so bitter about their experiene in the truth, and they are angry just like satan because they know they will very soon be dead at jehovah's hand!.

this website should be renamed something more fitting like "satan's playground" or a similar name that would get across the message of your site.. sincerely,.

all mankind stands condemned before god, and yet some are more reprehensible than others are.

as an example, christ called the original christian apostate, judas, the son of destruction.

so too, and not surprisingly, the activities of modern day apostates are said to awaken the judgment from of old, so that "the destruction of them is not slumbering.
