This week's WT study article "Keep on the Watch" - the latest dumb article from the Gang That Couldn't Think Straight

by sir82 in

ok so this week's wt study article is entitled "why must we keep on the watch?"..

it is filled with statements on the importance of "being watchful" for the beginning of the "great tribulation".

paragraph 2: “keep looking, keep awake, for you do not know when the appointed time is.”after that, jesus admonished them repeatedly: “keep on the watch.”.

Crazyguy

Here is the most telling of thoughts about when the end will be. In the last chapter of the last book of the bible john says that Jesus is coming quickly and very soon 5 times. 3 of these times he quotes Jesus as saying this. These scriptures were thought to be written in and about the year 98 AD. Even if this chapter was written later lets say around 300 AD., that's still roughly 1700 years ago.

So these scriptures is very telling as to the accuracy of the bible and when Jesus is to appear . Almost 2000 years and still no Jesus but he is coming quickly.

So my husband got a letter

by Lost his mind in

so, he received a letter that i am wondering if it is one of those open letters that are out there to denote time given.

it starts out with the name of the person sending it, then goes into the spiel...do you know our god's name?

when i was shown what it is, i kind of got upset.

Crazyguy

Tell your husband gods name is EL, have him Wikipedia the name Yahweh it will explain it pretty will . Then have him look up the name of the Canaanite God El , he'll see that this God is the same as the God of the Old Testament with some Baal worship thrown in.

Is The Time Coming Soon When We Can Sue The Watchtower Corporation For Damages From Mind Control And Bankrupt Them?

by Brokeback Watchtower in

i think as we become a more enlightened society in the future we will be able to.i think laws of this nature may be in the works in some countries right now perhaps not addressing the actual mind control issue in those terms but laws to protect its subject from those that use those tactics to harm their people through fraudulent means.

so i think the wt hope for financial survival in the information age is very slim.

look at what spain, russia, are already doing.. but they may just go under financially from way sooner because of multple lawsuits and loss of charity status in one country after another..

Crazyguy

What is Spain doing and it would be nice if a suit was braught and see what the courts would say.

Directed panspermia - a plausible theory of intelligent design?

by EdenOne in

i have just read an interesting article by astrobiologist jacob haq-misra.. in this article he describes a process called "directed panspermia" as a plausible way that one form of intelligent design - one not related with religious driven agendas involving theism - could be involved in the process by which life developed on earth and possibly in other planets as well.. sounds like a speculation that's worth entertaining.

your thoughts?.

I think man with all thier tools and intelegence should be able to create life, especially when the theory is that life was created randomly by some random event.

After 52 years a Watchtower slave 9/11 gave me the push I needed to get out.

by new boy in

jw
friends

i turned in my letter of disassociation on september 18, 2001 but it was 9/11 that showed me what the witnesses really feel about human lives and the future wished for.. i was in limbo after my wife of 27 years left me on july 30, 2001. she knew i wasn't buying the jw program anymore.

she told me she come back to me when "i got my head straighten out about god and the church".. so for 40 days i was in limbo.

i stopped going to meetings.

Crazyguy

Yep the great God of love does nothing for mankind when in need. That picture of that poor baby in Africa about to die with a vulchur waiting to eat him was very telling for me. Witnesses are really out of touch thier pathetic! My daughter was very sick over the last couple of years and couldn't go to meetings. The friends her close friends stopped coming around and when she was off getting treatment a while ago not one person from her congregation called her. Of course when she got home and was healthy enough to go to her first meeting in a long time they were so excited to see her. Bastards!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I understand what your saying Cofty but the fact that man can't and hasn't been able to create life is a major problem, so the idea that life may have come from beyond this planet is a realistic idea.

I like the idea of intelligent design. Maybe life was easier to start on another planet and once it did this life evolved to a piont that it was able to take live organisms or bacteria to other planets.

If this is real it just proves the model for the Borg is to just suck the rank and file dry for as long as possible. Japan is a dying country for jws so why bother with spending money over there. Same with India and other countries like in Africa were there's no profit for them . Even in places were they do spend money it's on real estate and those properties look like they can easily be sold and made in to McDonald's or Starbucks or something similar .

"The Paradise Earth" debunked, an email to my JW parents.

by FatherFirst in

hey guys, just your son.

i don't mean to bother you, however i came across something really interesting pertaining to the last time me and dad had a "bible discussion" i thought you should see, and since it's straight from the horses mouth so to speak, i assumed you'd be willing to.. just in case you forgot, at the time, i was making the argument that:.

) the new world translation when compared to other well known and accepted translations replace several words which seem to change the meaning.

Crazyguy

I found old Babylonian writings saying pretty much the same thing. The bible says nothing original.
