  Toasting is Pagan - How many contradictions can fit in 2 pages, I found 5?

  by jwfacts in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the watchtower 2007 feb 15 pp.30-31 explains why jehovah's witnesses are not to toast.

  what is astounding is that for each point they then go on an explain why the point is irrelevant, yet still conclude toasting is wrong.

  what did people think when reading this?

  Give Barbara and Trey Bundy some assistance!

  http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5975535444295680/trey-bundy-one-year-reporting-jw-child-abuse-your-comments-please i learned from trey bundy last year that if cir receives positive comments about their articles on jws, they are inclined to do more.

  it seems to me if we had better response by posters to the above thread which i would send trey a link to, we might see more articles.

  i do know that trey has another jw article in the pipeline, but the more the better.

  I just look at the fact Bible Students (Russellites) are still around.

  They have conventions still.

  This cult is a brain virus.

  Rejecting something due to unscriptural or pagan origins.....?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so witnesses reject many practices or holidays due to their "unscriptural or pagan" origins.. for example, birthday celebrations, mothers or father's day, christmas etc..... most people in the world will say "but the origin doesn't matter anymore, we follow this custom now because it's a joyful occasion that creates happy times and brings the family together".

  it is still firmly rejected.. so, if the wrong origin is so important, and should result in rejecting something, why isn't the same principle applied to the actual jehovah's witness faith itself!?.

  after all, the very foundation of the organisation was based on wrong understandings of the bible, far fetched teachings and doctrines, links to false religious backgrounds, pyramidology, false predictions, inaccurate beliefs etc...... using their reasoning, it doesn't matter how good something is now, if the origin was faulty to begin with?

  " during lunch i had a little time to do some research about the whole jw.borg and what i found almost knocked me out of my seat.
