  we know what mentally-in jws believe they are doing when they "love one another"... and many of us here formerly participated in that culty love bombing behavior.. why?.

  Could demonstrations of JW "love" be based upon a selfish psychology?

  • Look at us, Jesus said "by this all will know that you are my disciples - if you have love among yourselves."

  • So, if we act loving, this proves we have the one true religion.

  • Love bombing others will help "make disciples" just as Jesus said of the one true faith.

  • Therefore, this combination of "love" & "witnessing" will eventually reward me with everlasting life & material prosperity in paradise, just like Jesus promised.

  = Selfish ulterior motivations?

  A Prayer for the Stressed

  a prayer for the stressed .

  grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, the courage to change the things i cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those i had to kill today because they got on my nerves.. and also, help me to be careful of the toes i step on today, as they may be connected to the feet i may have to kiss tomorrow.. help me always to give 100% at work... 12% on monday, 23% on tuesday, 40% on wednesday, 20% on thursday and 5% on friday.

  and help me to remember...... when i'm having a bad day and it seems that people are trying to wind me up, it takes 42 muscles to frown, 28 to smile, and only 4 to extend my arm and smack someone in the mouth!.

  lol

  Is confessing murder in prayer protected privileged communication? Or will heaven thereafter make arrangements to expose the crime?

  Maybe fisherman can enlighten us.

  Smoking gun GB can’t get out of this one

  by Mikejw in

  2. beliefs

  here in 2022 if anyone says anything against the vaccines even a little bit you are almost apostate.. someone once mentioned all vaccinated sports stars collapsing and someone else said not to speak badly about the gb or by extension jehovah.. the gb can’t get out of this one, it’s gone too far.

  it’s now the case that if you speak against the vaccines you are speaking against the gb and by extension jehovah .

  Who really is the faithful and discreet slave?

  by Fisherman in

  2. beliefs

  “who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?” — math 24:45. according to jw, the faithful and discreet slave are the “anointed” men of the “governing body” of the jehovah’s witnesses religion..

  Ridiculous, yes, but also so very convenient when that single scripture enables a massive power grab over millions of followers.

  Las Vegas! lol

  "the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee, and all the high rolling merchants of the world weep at her demise" Rev 17 & 18

  It is all just abstract fiction

  WT should receive new light that the mysterious identity of "Babylon the Great" shifts & changes over time, just like wily "the king of the north"

  Should laws be passed compelling the church to report crimes?

  by Fisherman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if laws were passed compelling the church to report crimes to government authorities and there was no legal way around it and the church was forced to comply and did comply, nobody would confess their sins.

  it wouldn’t stop people from committing crimes, they just wouldn’t tell their church about it.

  Fishy, you hardly understand what your own topic is actually about... your arguments are all over the map.

  You claim your topic "is about law", but then stray off into "nobody would confess their sins" and "some people don't like" which are religious, social and behavioral issues... not law.

  Since you have thus far been stubbornly unreceptive to questions, critique and debate, myself and others here will gladly "kick rocks" and kick them all over your weak untenable premises.

  Fish on, F'man.
