Ok, so in the spirit of the April broadcast, what do you want to ask god to fix for you?

by stuckinarut2 in

so by now most of us have heard about (or watched) the april broadcast and the ridiculous "experience" of the guy that asked god to fix his construction leak before he believed in him..... so, what would you like to "pray that god fixes" in your life??.

humorous or serious replies welcome!

(although sarcastic, cynical and funny replies preferred hehe).

I want God to get his fucking house in order.

What a wanker Jehovah is. He wants from us what he himself will not do.

OK, seriously. I don't believe in Jehovah. He clearly does NOT exist. If he did, he certainly wouldn't have these 7 clowns representing him.

If there is a God, can you please clean up this shit?

Seriously. Lots of us are losing faith in you because of these assholes claiming to represent you.

Countless millions of lives have been ruined because of these evil men and their predecessors.

They make you look like a complete fucking idiot. You do know this, don't you?

My wife and I have a great relationship.

We split cooking and dishwashing. We both love to cook and we both hate to wash dishes.

We both work full-time, but have different schedules. Whoever goes to work last makes breakfast. That means I make breakfast four days a week and she does it three. On Sunday she brings coffee to bed and makes exquisite love to me. Then she makes breakfast and we read the paper on our back patio. I'm a kept man.

She does all of the laundry. She doesn't even want me to fold my own clothes.

When it comes to other task, we split them on a case-by-case basis.

We do a lot of "home-improvement" jobs together.

She wanted to remodel the downstairs bathroom. She did the faux finishing and I did the carpentry.

I installed a handrail on our stairs by myself.

We are going to build an outdoor kitchen in the next few weeks. I'll assemble the BBQ grill. Together we'll lay the concrete pad and layout the stonework.

She tends the garden, I rake the leaves.

What works for us might not work for you. It's a great relationship for us.

I am an ex-JW. She never was.

JW Personality used as an excuse....

by Anon_SA1 in

i had a discussion with a current jw member of +- 30 years, we got chatting about how you can be sure your faith is right and what checks can be done.

i then suggested looking at ex members view points and literature.

her response was her "i am not someone who takes initiative to look online at stuff, i doesn't feel my personality needs me look at outside view points" in summary she was saying her personality type is not interested in looking at other views.

There is no such thing as the "JW personality."

It's a myth.

DD: Could you elaborate on the "human apostate" thing??

That's in contrast to inhuman apostates such as Satan and the demons.

There were some threads on this at the time:

Getting JWs To Think By Using Their Own Tactics On Them.

by Island Man in

i've been thinking that an effective way to expose the idiocy and vacuousness of jwism is to use it right back on them when they come to your door.

say you're a fader and you've moved to the territory of a different circuit where the jws there don't know your jw background.

when they come knocking at your door, just put on the jw mindset and pretend to yourself that the jws at the door are not jws but members of a "false religion.".

Funny.

Let us know how it goes.

What is BELIEF ?

by EdenOne in

stemming from the 'absentheism' thread, an old question came to my mind.

what exactly is "belief"?.

is it the same to ask: "do you believe in god?

Oubliette

Viviane: Why only one side?

Not just one. I've seen other sides of you before. It's the wild side that's new to me.

You are clearly a woman with many layers and dimensions.

Today's (4/12) WT study - all about Jesus

by OneEyedJoe in

today's watchtower study article is all about jesus.

this stuck out to me after a year of hanging out on here where one frequent point of criticism is that jws claim to be christians but never talk about jesus.. anyone think it's a coincidence that today was the "special talk" follow-up to the memorial?

i think not - this is the most attended sunday meeting of the year, complete with many ubms, studies, and miscellaneous other potential victims who have been subjected to a coordinated effort to pressure them into attending.
