YAWEHLAND - Imagine a country where Jehovah's Witnesses are the majority

by EdenOne in

in 2018, cyprus goes bankrupt (again).

many of its inhabitants, lacking jobs and prospectives of a better future, emigrate to more prosperous countries.

cyprus' society is on the brink of collapse.

That can be a scary thought, think of an Islam caliphate = theocratic JW institution, same bad outcome.

Df'd people will have to live isolated from society, suicide rates would go up.

Anyone voicing disagreement would mysteriously disappear.

Men will try to move up the ranks to dominate the others, corruption would creep in and soon execution of all dissidents will take place in the name of Jehovah.

People will show a smile to world but inside will scream S.O.S

Complete lack of normal human empathy.

The list can go on...

The Evolution of the Human Eye

by cofty in

enjoy this informative 5 minute video that explains very simply how the human eye has evolved over millions of years.

notice how each of the steps on the path to our complex eyes can be found among extant living creatures.. it may whet your appetite to research lots more details that have been discovered in recent years.. please remember that natural selection is not about random chance.. .... .

Cofty, you're always trying to makes us think. It amazes me the wealth of knowledge that mankind has about its simple beginning. Imagine what our species will know and be able to do in just 1000 more years!

The human race will be enlightened in an almost unimaginable scale, and what about Christians? They will have the longest halftime in human history, 3,000 years of crickets.

Is there a function where I can switch to look at the topics as thumbnails? I don't like the feature where my screen is just filled with the opening comment. Other than that, everything is good.

Jehovah's Witnesses View of Jesus Compared to the Early Church

by cofty in

the following is an extract from something i wrote 16 years ago soon after leaving the watchtower.

i am posting it because it may help honest jws consider how far their beliefs are at odds with new testament christians.

if they have "the truth" then their attitude to jesus ought to reflect that of the apostles.

Hey Cofty,

I am going to use this info for tonight's family worship. My wife is beating me up for not having any bible discussions in the last 2 years, let's see how it goes.... I have to figure out how to deliver this material in a subtle way and just let it sink in...

New member, no longer just reader...

so i joined very recently and began posting and commenting without a formal intro.

been reading for a while, decided it was time to jump in.

mentally i am completely cleansed of this thing, but still have to maintain a minimal involvement for spouse and family.

Welcome my friend! Yes, many are waking up but have to stay quiet. You and I are on the same boat and although is agonizing to sit through a meeting or convention, the idea is to plan your exit carefully.

No matter what moves you take, this religion is setup for the player to lose and the house will always win. What I mean is, we will still lose family, friends, and our reputation. You have to tally up your losses and just prepare for what you will lose. If you chose wisely, the outcome can be a fulfilling life... and who knows? maybe leave a legacy behind.

do you think its a fact or an other urban legend.

suavojr

Well, you can find a YouTube video where a lady handed the teach book to the late Hugo Chavez. Did that change anything in Venezuela? A big fat NO! Chavez passed away and that country is still under a dictator.

Mass Slaughter of Animals in Hindu Festival

by cofty in

thousands of animals have been slaughtered at a religious ceremony in nepal.

the gadhimai festival takes place every 5 years.

apparently some imaginary deity can be bribed by the sight of blood.. before getting too judgemental does it remind you of anybody?.

suavojr

I read that article a few days ago and it just shows us how ignorant people can be. Now imagine if we could see these same pictures of Moses and his cronies doing the same immoral ritual. No blood can atone or pay for our mistakes in life, NO SACRIFICE. It reminds of what Sam Harris said, "Christianity is the worship of human sacrifice"

Is God an atheist ?

by coalize in

yes, god says all the time in the bible that it's no god upon him.. technically, doesn't that mean he's an atheist?.

.

suavojr

I think this website could help you with that question.

http://www.godwouldbeanatheist.com/

God by his own definition is an athiest.

I am the LORD, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God Isaiah 45:5

Submitting a DA letter and walking away?

by Jourles in

i have been perusing through the many boe documents i have recently received and noticed something interesting.

regarding ones who disassociate themselves, there have been many discussions on this board where people tell others not write a letter as you are giving away any legal footing you may have against the society.

well, it appears that there are two routes you can take without officially getting da'd, according to the society's own documents.

Funny how we get to see this happen in real life
