another boring and repetitive ''watchtower study.
'' all the articles are about the ''faithful and discreet slave.''.
for whatever reason, you tolerate this for years.
I got 1 bathroom break that I looked forward to.
I would look at the index of the bible and look up random things.
Space out.
Make jokes with my mom and sister and get in trouble for laughing! Outline the pictures and letters in the watchtower. Draw faces on the people.
Sometimes I would take notes.
I recently went to a JW funeral and couldn't pay attention. The message is so muddled its so easy to just space out. I just read Romans and stopped listening.
ok i'll bite.. let's say for a moment that jehovah's witnesses are right, and that the nt autographs (the originals) contained the tetragrammaton.let's say that the nt writers always wrote "jehovah" in greek (iexoba, as the witnesses spell it currently) when they quoted the hebrew scriptures, whether they quoted from the hebrew version or the septuagint, and jehovah's name appeared on the quote.
let's say that the original septuagint always had iexoba whenever they were referring to jehovah.then we have that the original septuagint said in psalms 101:26-28 the following:"at the beginning it was you, o jehovah, who founded the earth, and the heavens are works of your hands.
they will perish, but you will endure, and they will all become old like a garment.
The Watchtower and JW will resort to gaslighting or say something ridiculous that isn't logical to explain anything away. When I saw that they changed verses in the bible and that they all had to do with the deity of Christ, I saw this was a conspiracy. They are deceiving people. The best liars mix some truth into it. So they are careful about preserving a lot of truth. I heard a story of how they were so careful to get the type of wine correct for the memorial. Why? Because the memorial is a rejection of Jesus. But getting the details right adds to the validity of the deception. We were duped. Our loved ones are duped. We escaped the watchtower, but then we continue the deception by saying God isn't real and guess what? The Watchtower wins again because their original plan is to keep people from being saved by rejecting Jesus! It's genius, really, if you think about it! Evil genius.
a good question is would you be more happy not knowing what you now know?.
were you more happy pimi?
are all the pimis more happy than the the pimos or the pomos?.
Soooooo happy to be free and free to think!
i am starting a new topic since this blog entry is about something different.. i have posted before about my recent split with the jws.
no exit comes out of nowhere and there were seeds planted long before this.
i have never enjoyed field service.
I hated field service. Well partly because I never read the magazines I was peddling and felt guilty about being unprepared. One time a guy actually sounded interested and I made sure not to go back because I didn't want him to have all those rules to deal with!
im not an atheist, makes no mathematical sense, nor does the buy(more) bull(shit) god make any logical sense... maybe a deist on my best day, in the end you cannot get something from nothing, paradox if you ask me... but in reality i just dont care.
while in, and moving out of the cult, its like a roller coaster, emotionally, yet, for me, over time, i just take it one day at a time, and if appeasing some special deity is required, well i guess i failed.
lol.
No that was God's solution.

Ok well then we'll part ways for now! I know Chrustian groups going into these dark places to save these children, but it isn't going to save all of them. We were just talking about the 2004 Tsunami in Thailand not other natural disasters. I was trying to come up for a possible loving scenario for YOU! And after seeing the Jared from Subway documentary of him going to Thailand and "pounding little boys" I guess I felt bad for those poor kids living there!

So you'd rather they be used for sex? Really?

That's how I see it. I don't claim that's the answer, we are finite humans with limited knowledge

In that country I would say yes! Same in North India, parts of Africa, etc. Better than being repeatedly raped or starved.
