JW Broadcasting reeks of desperation

by oldskool in

again, i'm a decade removed from the faith.

i'm catching up now, and can't believe what i'm seeing.. i get that jw leadership faced a dilemma.

there is no intellectual apparatus within the faith.

Crazyguy

I agree I think the cult is no longer able to recruit anyone from out side the religion not many anyway so thier focusing on trying to keep the ones already in in. The other thing is thier now concentrating on mostly the areas of the world were they can make money. This also speaks of desperation. They no longer seem to care about places like African or India cutting back on efforts in those places.

The only thing that can save them now is a major economic downturn or some huge natural disaster.

Questions for JW's from Christians

by Perry in

jw
friends

i'm thinking of printing a tract with some simple but thought-provoking questions for people to use when jw's come to their doors.

questions from christians.

bible-believing christians appreciate the moral values of jehovah’s witnesses in their communities but have several questions that somehow seem to escape us when we are caught unexpectedly at our doors.

Crazyguy

You're questions are to complex. Keep it simple like posted above about blood and Jesus said nothing entering defiles a man can also be elaborated with Mathew 12 were he says 'we desire mercy not sacrifice'. It can also be brought out that in human breast milk there's roughly 1 million white blood cells per drop.

Evidence for a Young Earth

by Perry in

Crazyguy

I think the WT promoted a 50,000 year old earth as late as 1987 then just stopped talking about it till 2013 when they threw the whole thing into scientists hands

by James Mixon in

the ocean.. sister pleasant: wife!

brother jerk.

Crazyguy

It's amazing how many jws get married months after the wife dies. And woman will gladly marry these guys knowing full well thier wife just died. Some really messed up people in this cult.

Home bookstudy ended because of 'independent study' groups? Any interesting stories regarding these types of groups?

by Nicodemus Kathoplizo in

someone suggested the other day that the home bookstudy meeting ended because of 'independent study' groups (in ireland) going 'off the reservation' and left the truth (tm).. has anyone heard of this before?.

does anyone have interesting stories of 'independent study' groups resulting in large scale apostasy?.

they did not publish this for no reason:.

Crazyguy

I know that it was brought out in the early 1980 ' s that there were independent study groups even Dunlap one of the main writers at watchtower was involved and when they kicked him out he apparently continued with some of these study groups. I believe I read this in the book Crisis of Conscience

this information has come out now do to the fact they have put up this property for sale.

They buy a hotel! Yep in 1975 when the world was about to come to its end the Borg buys the Brooklyn hotel for 2 million dollars. This information has come out now do to the fact they have put up this property for sale. So while most at Bethel thought and were being told the world was going to end others new better and were investing in real estate .

Pharaoh and Judas, both gods puppets?

by purrpurr in

i've had a thought about pharaoh and judas .

in exdos it says that jehovah hardens pharaohs heart so that he then refuses to send the israelites away.

this gives god an exhuse to show off some plague skills he has up his sleeve.. so with judas , jehovah puts it into his heart to betray jesus .. so neither one had command of their actions?

Crazyguy

God hardening pharaohs heart was one of the nails in the coffin of my belief. Killing innocent people was another big nail. Finding out it was all made up bullshit really helps one free themselves from the mind bondage when you believe in this god.

I'm getting disfellowshipped

by raven in

hi everyone, a bit of an update here on my continuing disaster of a situation.. (refer to my previous posts for the full story) my mom met with me yesterday for dinner, it was nice.. however, she brought up the fact that because i live with my boyfriend and how everything has gone down, i will be disfellowshipped.. i think the elders basically have enough proof of this.. due to the anonymous tipper (still have no clue who it was, i live in another town 100's of miles away from my old congregation territory), and my mom telling them.

i'm not sure when they will announce it, or if they will contact me prior.. at this point i feel so emotionally dead i don't care- on the other hand, i don't want to be disfellowshipped because i do not want to loose a relationship with my mom.

that is the whole reason i tried fading out.. .

Crazyguy

I think your mother told the elders and if they contact you maybe you should contact them and deny you did anything wrong. They need two witnesses not just your mom say your mom made it up or something. Then if you have to apeal to your mother about how Jesus was all about forgiveness not killing people spiritually because of one sin.

What does the Armageddon Genocide Actually Accomplish?

by xjwsrock in

why murder 8 billion non-believers to just turn around and resurrect 20 billion other non-believers?

.

Crazyguy

Yeah then to do it all over again, Satan let loose to fool the world again really makes sense . And what's even more crazy is the biggest event ever to happen in the world was the resurrection of the ones upon Jesus death and running around Jerusalem yet no body mentions it back then and today no Christian sect talks about it. Wasn't even talked about in later bible writings. Thier resurrection should be the biggest thing talked about as proof of Jesus power yet no one does because they know it's batshit crazy talk.
