So much of the bible has been plagiarized. Babylon was destroyed by Assyria and cursed for 70 years. I believe the original writings of Jeremiah and parts of Isaiah were about Assyria and thier problems with Babylon or vise Versa the later copied and changed to be about Jerusalem and Israel. This is just a theory but Babylon was in fact destroyed and cursed for 70 years Jerusalem was not. The bible writers copied or stole the idea.

The book of Jeremiah
by truthwillsetyoufree init occurred to me the other day that i don't actually know all that much about the bible.
dont get me wrong, i was a very dedicated and studious jehovah's witness and i studied the bible every day - or so i thought.
i have now realised that during the time i spent in that religion i didn't study the bible - i studied jehovah's witness theology.

Schadenfreude
by Coded Logic inman who claims god punishes gays with floods has his home destroyed in flood of ‘biblical proportions’.
family research council president and former louisiana state legislator tony perkins had to escape his flooded baton rouge home via canoe, the christian post reported on wednesday, citing his recent comments on his radio program, “washington watch.”.
“[i have seen] nothing like this, and i have been involved in disaster relief, especially here in louisiana, working and coordinating relief efforts through several hurricanes,” the christian post quoted mr. perkins as saying.

Trolley cart "witnessing" is getting ridiculous
by oppostate ini really fail to see how much actual "witnessing" is occurring with the trolley carts.publishers, usually pioneers, just stand or sit there not engaging anyone and count their time.. the only thing i notice that it's accomplishing is brand exposure for jw.0rg so the public is exposed to the logo and literature/poster card headlines.. take for example this "evening" witnessing by a pioneer elder while on summer holiday/vacation.. .
is this not a wth kinda moment when you consider the years of slaving, knocking on doors, business territory and bible studies we had to keep performing so we weren't branded a "weak" publisher?.

Free your conscience, there are roughly 1million white blood cells in a drop of breast milk. Also if you haven't read the km November 2006 it's says cows blood is ok as a conscience matter, go figure how it's ok to have cows blood.

Judicial Committees should have an option to be public
by EndofMysteries inthinking back to how they went from votes by the congregation under russels time to private closed doors in rutherfords time so as to not waste time, etc, of other members.
if it really wasn't to hide things from the org, it would have an option for the person it's against to have it open to the public.
a time announced for any members or the person to bring any they want to attend.

I with my wife just try to remember that she was indoctrinated in to these ideas all her life. She is a victim of the cult and we were to, so I try to give my wife some slack on account of this.

Explaining JW Beleifs To Non JW's
by pale.emperor inmy new girlfriend asked me over dinner last night what jw's believe.
as i sat there explaining it i realized how ridiculous it sounds and was slightly embarrassed that i used to believe this crap for 31 years.. try and read this and imagine hearing it for the first time.... me: well... jw believe that god's name is jehovah and that his son is jesus christ.
they believe that jesus died on a stake and not a cross and that in the year 1914 he personally chosen the jw's as his one true religion.

Yeah I remember telling a couple people at work about the religion and they all say the same thing "that's fu@ked up"! To funny but at the same time it's depressing that we once believed this crap.

"Spiritual Israel" created in 1919 - not in 33C.E.
by The Searcher inthanks to the "inspired expressions" of the fds/gb of jehovah's witnesses, not only are 99% of j.w.
's excluded from the new covenant, but apparently none of the first century christians are part of the "israel of god" - aka "spiritual israel.".
w14 11/15 p. 26 par.

You would think that if thier was a special group that would come and you had to be apart of this group or thier organization in order to be saved and have every lasting life and a great relationship with God that the bible would say so pretty plainly somewhere because the bible says God doesn't want people to die. But oh where could these scripture be?, the closest I can find is john 3:16 on yet it mentions no group or organization. Damn I'll keep looking.

Woman's Purpose
by StopTheTears ini'm probably going to say some things here that will disappoint many.
there are some that may look back over the years and say "man i really blew it" i'm not writing the following to scold for failures, but rather to help those who are young enough to put into practice what god wills for their life, and also to those of us who are in our middle years that still have time to change some things, in order to please god and find a peace that only being in his will can bring.
first let me say that god didn't create man for you.

Other Religions use the Name JEHOVAH too
by UnDisfellowshipped inare jehovah's witnesses really the only religion that promotes and preaches the name of jehovah?.
jw's are always claiming that they are the only religion that preaches and uses the name jehovah, and that is why only they will be saved.
for example, look at this quote from the watchtower:.

Also the name of God is used in multiple Bibles not just The JW Bible.
