  Atheism = self defeating.

  by towerwatchman in

  atheism = self defeating.

  first may we define our terms.

  the word atheism comes literally from the greek, alpha the negative and theos [for god], therefore “negative god” or there is no god.

  In response to your original post, I think an atheist is just believing that there is no god and does not think his opinion means that there is absolute proof there is no God. I'm pretty much an atheist and I see no evidence of a god, so that's why in my opinion there's no god, but I'm open to the idea that there was once a god like creature that flew by earth and possibly started life on this planet millions of years ago.

  Mathematically Measuring Evolution.

  by towerwatchman in

  1. watchtower

  mathematically measuring evolution.. when judging relationships in terms of morphological characteristics we will always be bound by the subjective.

  morphologically one cannot exactly measure the distance between two organisms strictly in mathematical terms.

  using the standard method of taxonomy we cannot quantify the difference between a horse and a mouse, or know which is closer mouse to cat, or mouse to fish.

  Watchtower/Bethelite Volunteers and US Self Employment or FICA Tax?

  by EnlightenedEphesian in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  with so many aging bethelites being "laid off" after years of volunteer service, what hope do they have of collecting any social security retirement?

  i ask because i recently learned that my mother will not receive any government retirement benefits because she did not work enough to collect the 40 credits required.

  this got me to thinking about bethel volunteers.

  It's my understanding that they fill out a contract of poverty and nothing is paid to the government. When thier let go they go home broke poor and destitute to live in someone's garage until they die and are forgotten.

  The earliest uses of the name or spelling was just three letters. A similar name was used for the Egyptian moon god and the Assyrian high god. Since the Canaanites were so heavily influenced by the Egyptians many believe thier god EL was the same as one of the gods of Egypt. Solomon's (which means son of Amon) temple looks remarkabley like some of those built in Egypt.

  on another forum, a user posted that their partner is being hauled before a jc for asking questions and, that the jc will go ahead regardless if in attendance or not.. the post does not say what questions were being asked.

  another user responded with - possibly viewed as 'brazen conduct'.

  here is the link to jw.org - brazen conduct: https://www.jw.org/en/publications/books/bible-glossary/brazen-conduct/.

  Oh yeah there's a WT from the 80s that says even thinking something contrary or questioning in your mind is apostasy. They I think are cracking down hoping to stop the tide of those waking up and leaving.

  Watchtower & Guns

  apparently jehalapeno isn't a 2nd amendment supporter either.... .

  july 17 questions from readers.... the way this part is worded screams cult to me, i was quite amused.. how a christian chooses to protect himself, his family, or his possessions is, of course, largely a personal matter, as is his choice of employment.. geee!

  thanks watchtower for allowing me to "largely chose my own employment" you are a generous cult lol.
