Greetings everyone! Newly signed up but not new to the site.
by GTSfromSY inmy (very fake) name is gabriel syme or gabe for short.
i have been lurking in the shadows for many years and i want to give all here a heartfelt thank you for all your indirect support.
this website, as well as youtube, and eventually reddit, were all key in me finally accepting the “truth” being not that at all.

Why do Jehovah`s Witnesses believe everything will be Hunky Dory after Armageddon ? I have news for them.
by smiddy3 inthey seem to think that all they will do is enjoy a carefree life with little or no concerns problems or worries whereas nothing could be further from the truth... according to the bible.. without trying to speculate on these concerns or problems during this one thousand year reign of christ jesus ,lets hear what the bible has to say about the end of his thousand year reign.. rev.20:7-10 satan is to be let out of his prison {as if he hasn`t done enough damage in 6000 years of roaming about in the earth at the same time fraternizing with jesus and jehovah in heaven} i digress.. and the reason he is let out of prison ,lo and behold ,is to mislead those nations in the four corners of the earth gog and magog to gather them together for the war.
{ here we go again ,armageddon didn`t solve anything we have to go through another one.
} 1000 years later.. now get this it`s not just some isolated little skirmish with a few hundred or even a few thousand dissenters ,as the bible states they number the sands of the seashore and they advanced over the breadth of the earth and encircled the camp {not a nation but a camp} of the holy ones.and the beloved city.. with that description it would seem the holy ones are in the minority and the opposes apparently were spread over all the earth.. so that description of the bible to me about jc 1000 rule does not appear to be one of living in a paradise , that is not on the agenda until after jesus christ 1000 year reign and only if you are lucky enough to survive another test/war of your loyalty after all you have gone through previously.. i wonder if this realization is one of the reasons why so many now are claiming to be of the anointed because as one of the other sheep you have to pass another test after the 1000 years of christ jesus rule whereas of one of the anointed on death now you go straight to heaven ..

For the same reason that people from the Heaven's gate cult were Hunky Dory about getting castrated and poison themselves. They are brainwashed.

This one in Southern California has Mormon razor wire
That's not a new thing in America.
I'm with Mr. Roboto, to some degree. I can't care less about what others decide to do with their religion, up until the point where my taxes start paying for it.

How to make money in the good ol' U.S A.
by The Fall Guy inrussell & rutherfraud knew they were on to a winner when they started and then re-branded their cult business empire.

i can't get my around such institutions being allowed to keep their finances secret.

That's actually a step up from how things used to be, though I agree. Churches use their god as an excuse to get away with pretty much everything they want. Why do you think religion has become so unpopular? They blame it on "the last days" and "people being sinners" and "being close to the end" but the truth is that the vast majority of people have come to see churches and organized religion for what they really are.
