Very interesting documentary
in the imagination of many christians (jws included) the biblical texts tell of each succeeding world power winning its position through the power of its armies, on the battlefield.
even the yhwh/jesus combo is imagined as winning in an enormously destructive battle.. the knorr/franz nomination for the world power no.7 - the anglo/american alliance certainly gained and still maintains its hegemony via its military power.
its battle fleets armed with the most destructive power in history patrol the world.

Who to believe...
i honestly think they are the most boring people on earth!
even when they produce their so called "new light", there's no excitement.
jws just do their thing and refuse to think about their useless lives.

This could be copied by any speaker at the "Don't give up" convention, insert a few "Jehovahs" and you have a great talk to the "average" bored JW. Notice at 4:07 the teacher is showing how to be an academic "pioneer". Parallel universe at the university...
i think the finished mystery book probably contains the stupidest beliefs ever recorded!
almost any prophecy publication but especially anything to do with revelation, is unbelievable!
.
No one can celebrate their own birthday, or Honor their mother or father on the date most people use, Thanksgiving is pagan, etc...
i could only think of weddings and wedding anniversaries .
Day before and Day after thanksgiving..."look why I got this free turkey at work and would hate it to go to waste"
in reality my experience with the witnesses is that they really don't bother me or bother with me which suits me just fine....are you "bothered" by the witnesses at this point of your life?.
Lately I seem to have more pity for them, than being bothered. Most of them just parrot the same phrase over and over, such as "waiting on Jehovah". When a stranger says "Happy Mothers day", the most they can say is "thank you", I think that is pitiful, rather than be cordial and return the small talk, they are trained to just deflect these niceties and ignore the other human,s thoughtfulness.
yes, you heard right.
this morning, jehovah's witnesses in gatineau were preaching door to door when parts of their city are under water.1500 volunteers (not jws) showed up to help their fellow citizen in need.
meanwhile, jws were knocking on the doors in areas that were not flooded talking about how the weather is messed up and how it is a sign of the end.
One word, cult.
was merrily walking down my local high street this morning when a lady approached me and than told me not to worry i'm not a jw, i said dont worry i used to be one and she was astounded and we went into a full blown doctrinal biblical discussion , she was representing her local baptist church, i really shot her away with my knowledge and she agreed she's never met someone like me before , she said that i would still need to repent and and accept jc as my personal saviour etc blah blah and that the devil was pleased that i'd accepted a path of atheism , i said you think the devil is directing people to atheism, i said you dont think the devil would be wanting people to be joining devil worshipping groups, occult groups, wiccan/pagan and witch covern groups?
i asked her to direct me to see a physical image of the devil and demons and to direct to to where they reside etc, i asked don't you think demons can manifest themselves in the form of humans?
she agreed, i then said where are they?
One main difference between JWS and Baptist is that Baptist want your money and JWS want your time and your Money.

If a salesman at Bestbuy were to tell me to give him money for a new iPhone and that it would be delivered to me invisibly, I wouldn't stay another second in that store. Why do most JW,s swallow the invisible lie is beyond me. When the word "invisible" comes up, all kinds of red flags should go off in your brain. You could say "this is a no-brainer"
