  Do you believe what the Bible teaches? If "yes", why? If "no", why?

  by Tenacious in

  if you do believe in the bible's message, do you believe society has gotten better, worse, or has remained the same?.

  if you don't believe in the bible's message, do you believe society has gotten better, worse, or has remained the same?.

  on a personal note, there are many things that i can't help but notice that coincide with what the apostle paul wrote to timothy in his second letter chapter 3 regarding tough times:.

  Tena,

  Sure we had world wars and what not, it's not a good reason to feel the bible is true, in fact we probably don't even understand Jesus was talking about being that these things were written many decades after the supposed dialogue took place with nobody writing it down as he spoke , so expect much of it made up to sound good, you know how word of mouth gets corrupted very quickly the more people in the link to pass it on to it's final destination which is somebody's ink and pen writing the holy script.

  Congregation that have sent in money!

  in the past week, i have heard from a number of friends scattered all over the place.

  a number of them are very upset over the congregation being required, to send in all monies over $4,000.

  a number of these were kh's that were saving to buy land, and or build new kh's.

  Inside T K,

  I don't think anyone in your hall would want to be on record for wanting his money back, that could be the first step into apostasy or receiving a unfavorable response from the GB on some trumped up charge after all they wield the sword of disfellowshipping as they have complete authority as God's faithful and discreet slave. .

  I do think the unconscious drives of Governing Body that causes them to speak during these GB chats will be full of Freudian slips. So keep a look out for them, BTW I think Anthony Morris shadow figures(Jungian) of homosexuals in tight pants and his hatred toward's higher education, tells us a story of his own denial and his negative veiw of smart people, he thinks of them as proud and haughty, he was raised by a wealthy father who probably wanted a smart boy to take after dear old dad but instead he got Anthony the 3rd who was so dumb that he squandered the rest of his life in service to a blood sucking cult, and that is why I think Anthony hates smart teachers and people who listen to them, a sort of defense mechanism for his own stupidity so he don't feels so bad being stupid.

  No I don't believe what the bible teaches I used to but after a long and hard battle I took a more critical look at the the Bible and found Jehovah wanting in the personality department, and realized that Jehovah is just like all other Gods: a product of the human imagination the mind in order to avoid the discomfort of not knowing where we came from and more intricate details of how the world really works our minds made up Gods as a sort of patch job, that worked reasonably well for the time(thousands if not millions of years), so I don't have any animosity towards belief in Gods I just don't see belief as practical in our day and age.

  If you're bothered by god murdering innocent children, you must have a "critical heart"

  by OneEyedJoe in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this week's book study contains this gem:.

  the way in which the bible is written serves to test what is in our heart.

  hebrews 4:12 says: the word [or, message] of god is alive and exerts power and is sharper than any two-edged sword and pierces even to the dividing of soul and spirit .

  Wow talk about circular reasoning they take the cake. Any way it's true if you start looking at the Bible more critically you will start to see Jehovah's character flaws when he flies off the handle on goes on killing sprees like some maniac.

  The Bible is best read uncritically in Watchtower land it makes for a good story to get people enslaved to their corporation demands. Hey they hate education so what do you expect to come out of these anecdotal old fart publications written by brainwashed simpletons.

  I sure hope these little friendly chats with the GB continues, it ought to be hilarious as each of these guys go on and on in their asinine rants.

  Give us more more more! You guys on the Governing Body are a hoot, show us where Satan is hiding, we already know from AM3 he's in the college dorm.

  Which Online Discussion Archetype Are You?

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. suggestions

  taken from codinghorror blog, funny but insightful as well:.

  if you've participated in usenet, mailing lists, or web forum discussions for any length of time, you're probably familiar with godwin's law:.

  as an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving nazis or hitler approaches 1.. .

  Experience in a talk

  by Da.Furious in

  last week we had an elder giving a talk, cant remember the title.. the thing that was of interest is the experience he gave:.

  "a brother who was working in a hospital had to leave his job which was paying him good money because the nurses wanted to sleep with him and they kept putting notes for him on his desk!".

  this is not the first time i hear similar experience.

  These experiences are the product of a wishful thinker who wishes all the nurses wanted to go to bed with him(watching way too much porn?) and forget where reality and fantasy is and confuses the 2.

  Quitting his job over some proposition to have sex seem a bit paranoid.

  To Anthony Morris education is a four letter word. He hates it with his entire being he even made sure his kids didn't go, and money is not the issue because he came from a wealthy family, he just plain hates it.

  I think deep down he knows educated people don't believe his bull shite because they want facts and don't rely on anecdotal stories told from a biased leaning uneducated moron who thinks he's God'd right hand man who must be obeyed or else parish. So now that he has his hands on the reins of power he is going to put down education as a tool of Satan to deceive everybody away from the Corporation's grasp.

  Can you picture the hard time Anthony Morris would have if half his audience was college educated, his dumb crap would have them rolling on the floor with laughter. People who have stopped learning might think AM3 got something important to say, and those that value a good education think he's nuts eventaully.
