It is about time reality shows go into the trash bin. Never watched them and never will. They are created for about 13 year old mentality.

really sick religious guys here http://www.godhatesfags.com/main/index.html they seem to hate sweden for some reason.

I read this a few days ago and was going to post about it but wasn't sure if it was some sort of hoax. I mean I can't believe anyone this day and age would be that "red neck". Even if they were I can't believe that anyone would be that stupid to post their true feelings.

My Phone Conversation With Watchtower on Tsunami Disaster!

by Voyager in

my telephone conversation with the watchtower society, was a sincere attempt to find out what active role the watchtower is taking to help the tsunami victims.

thursday dec. 30, 2004 / approx.

watchtower call on tsunami disaster.. 1-718-560-5000. wt-recording--thank you for calling jehovah's witnesses.. wt rep--jehovah's witnesses, may i help you?.

William Penwell

WT rep--Sure, let me give you the latest information that we have. As of Monday the reports are: India, Malaysia, Somalia, Sri Lanka, and Thailand report that there was no great loss of life among the local brothers. Sadly in Thailand (2) brothers who were vacationing were known to have been killed. There have been of course loss of homes, personal possessions, and Kingdom Halls have damage. We are asking that if individuals would like to donate to the relief work, if they would please donate to the (Watchtower Worldwide Work), and it will be distributed from there.

Translation, all we care about is the Jdubs and kingdum halls and to hell with the rest of those poor bastards.

Should You Believe Voices from the Unknown,,Assume It's God's???

isn't that what a prophet is doing???

how can he be so sure he is speaking with the almighty???

could just be a over active ego??

William Penwell

Most of the early religious inspirations were because of a self induced drug state. Like today I am sure you can get a real spiritual enlightenment with a little hallucinate drugs.

link from society website "donate to disaster relief"

by core in

https://www.jwgift.org/main.asp?page=0

not sure if this has been noted here before but the uk jw donations website has a link described as " click here to donate to disaster relief.

who gets this then and what disaster will it benefit - bandwagon anyone ?.

William Penwell

If it's used in the disaster area, it'll be to rebuild kingdumb halls.

That would be the WT idea of disaster relief aid, who cares if the poor people need food or medical aid as long as they have a Kingdum hall to go and listen to the societies BS.

How does the society explain 5 more partakers at the Memorial?

by lv4fer in

jw
friends

i think it's kind of funny.

how do they explain more people this year than lasts?

i thought the number was suppose to get lower as they died off?

William Penwell

I can see some more "new light" coming on this point. Maybe this is a way of them prolonging the end of the system. Jehovah still has not filled the 144,000 number and needs more time. Whatever their excuse, I am sure the rank and file Jdubs will buy the BS.

Was God in this disaster?

by bikerchic in

i got this in my email and thought i would pass it along.

i know many of us are struggling with so many issues involving god and the bad things that happen.

for me this recent tsunami disaster was over the top, i'm beyond understanding and i'm not going to say this article helped me understand any better but it did show me that x-jw's aren't the only ones who struggle with such questions.

William Penwell

I don't think God has anything to do with what goes on here.

Benny Hinn - DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?

by William Penwell in

just watched a documentary about benny hinn ministry, i can't believe anyone is that gullible to believe this crap.

not only is he a fraud but he is also a crook, taking money from poor susceptible people.

he also sure likes to live the high life to.

William Penwell

Simon was asking if there are more Benny Hinn faith healer types around and I recall another thread sometime ago discussing other so-called faith healers. Although Benny Hinn is one of the most well known of these charlatans over here in North American TV audiences, there are others that are just as popular in some of the 3rd world countries. You notice that most of his followers are lowly educated, co-dependant, dysfunctional types that are desperately looking for answers but are being taken in by these scam artists. It is so sad but what can one do.

Just watched the first part of the show again and Benny is nothing but a liar. I can't understand why the government has not brought fraud charges against him. I guess you can do anything under the guise of a fairtale that they call a religion.

I would just like to hear someone justify how they feel he is doing "God's" ministry and keep a straight face.
