My introduction and confession

by elderINewton in

jw
friends

well another big bad elder here just wanting to say sorry.. i'm sorry that so many were treated like crap, and shown that god's love is not to be found around jehovah's witnesses.

i'm sorry that inadvertently i've likely taught many to judge and as such see that racism permeates every corner of the jw world, else why else would someone be of the world, or even inactive.

i'm sorry i sat in on a jc, and voted to df.

What kind of errors in the Bible?

by TheWonderofYou in

the new testament specialist daniel wallace notes that although there are about 300,000 individual variations of the text of the new testament, this number is very misleading.

most of the differences are completely inconsequential--spelling errors, inverted phrases and the like.

a side by side comparison between the two main text families (the majority text and the modern critical text) shows agreement a full 98% of the time.[18].

One major error in the Bible is the story of David and Goliath, experts have looked at the armor Goliath was described as wearing and it's matches that of a much later Greek hoplite soldier. The Philistines are shown on the walls of Egypt showing exactly what they wore. This shows the writer who made up the story did it at a much later time and he didn't realize that the soldiers of the time line depicted didn't have armor like this or even the technology to create it.

Why did Jesus have to die?

by Crazyguy in

let's think about this for a bit.

adam was tempted and sinned by eating of the fruit.

he missed out on immortality by being denied the tree of life.

Let's think about this for a bit. Adam was tempted and sinned by eating of the fruit. He missed out on immortality by being denied the tree of life. He continued to live on though for almost a thousand years. Jesus on the other hand passes three temptations by Satan yet still dies, what I don't get it. He passed the test so he equaled the scales, so why does he still have to die? Death was a result of Adams error and had nothing to do with the test. If someone can make a good argument why I'm wrong then the next question would be then why did Jesus have to die the way he did a brutal torturous death, why not in his sleep most likely the way Adam went?

If my argument holds up to scrutiny I'm thinking this maybe another way to get people to wake up.

All quiet on the western front

by campaign of hate in

recently it seems very quiet in jw land.. jw broadcasting has been in full swing for months now, nobody bats an eye lid at that anymore.. so the question is, what is next?

the next organisation change, the next doctrine change.

it seems like this is the quiet before the storm.. the way things are going, it's almost like they try and one up their last change, things in jw land get that bit more crazy every year.. i'm hedging my bets toward a monthly public talk broadcast straight from new york.

Crazyguy

I think most that fade are still shunned, I no I am and a friend shunned his whole family until he woke up. They aren't going to change any time soon

Jehovanomics RULE #6: It's all about the MONEY. Follow the Money.

by Jehovanomics in

every bit of this is about money.

from the small time jw.org magazine cart in front of the grocery store to the billions of dollars of real estate laundering.

it's all about the money.

Two things the 1970s crowd is starting to die off no more real growth the over all numbers will go down and number two as it becomes more and more obvious to the rank and file that the end is not coming more people will leave faster.

One they new it was contaminated back a few years ago so why move your headquarters there? 2. Where was Jehovah in all this, surely he should of told the F&DS not to buy this place. 3. What's their real motives, get this place confirmed as a toxic site and make billions off of the clean up or just sue for compensation and hope their damages are in the hundreds of millions, higher when the court is told that this place was the JW headquarters.

Another thing to consider as this story unfolds, its use as a form of TTATT, I mean this should wake up some. Gods organization moves to a toxic waste dump and Jah doesn't tell them. This should get some Jdubs thinking.

Anyway anyone have information about this site should share it and we all can stay up to date about this unfolding story. I have a feeling its going to get good!!

Bible History

by bitsnbobs in

hi all,i left the org in the late 90s.

not because of beliefs or the 1914/generation fiasco.

just thoughtlessness, hypocrisy and cognitive dissonance.

Crazyguy

Your giving the writings in the bible way to much credibility. Your saying in that the Noah story written roughly 500 bc is more accurate then the two or three that came a thousand years or more before it which would put these stories closer to Noah. So Noah tells his story to his offspring they get it wrong for a thousand years or more then all of a sudden at about 500 bc a Jewish writer gets is right somehow. Yet these same Jewish writers state that god created the vegetation before the Sun and made several more discrepancies in the creation story. And lets not forget how imposable the Noah's story is with millions of different animals and insects etc on a 450-500 foot boat for a year where one would need to store up over 500 tons of food just for the elephants alone.

I need to go smoke a joint or something so I can get on your wave length or something before we can continue with this conversation.

I would say in your last response to me that If Solomon did exist he was an Egyptian king and not a Jewish one. The Egyptians ruled the Levant during either timeline you chose and there is plenty of evidence that some of the cities mentioned in the bible and surmised to be in the Levant were and are actually in Egypt. So again if Solomon was and Egyptian King which is more plausible in my opinion then where does that leave the Jews? Still just a small back water loose coalition of peoples living in Judea an area unable to support the kind of population needed back then to do anything that the Jews claimed David and his Son Solomon did.
