hey uk folks, what's going with this story?

was it an unbelieving mate that attacked and elder or something?.

Brokeback Watchtower

Wow this could be real bad publicity for the Watchtower Corporation if it had anything to do with shunning policies. or worse if it had to do with child molestation.

Think of all the people that know everything is bull shit but still have to attend because of the love they have for their members and who try not to say anything that might give them away. Suppose some body of elders homed in one of these types and got them DF'd and the person was so mad they lost it.

Could happen as the GB get more and more radical in their cruelty by disfellowshipping every lukewarm JW coming to meetings, and more and more people are finding out the TATT.

How can angels be sexually attracted to women?

by Island Man in

the nephilim account in genesis is utterly ridiculous when you consider that angels are sex-less beings and would therefore lack sex-drive and romantic attraction.

think of how difficult it is for humans with a sex drive to be sexually attracted to animals.

now take away that sex drive and it becomes literally impossible.

Also as regards story telling in written ancient forms can hardly be viewed as factual event reporting except by only the most nieve reader who loses himself in imagining these are hard core facts of truth with on the spot live on the scene reporting of events. And benevolently put to writing for mankind's salvation by belief in this book writings as true and then granted life in some other type of utopia for the believer/indoctrinated to spend eternity/reward for obedience to hiarchy in charge of manuscripts/Gardians Of the Doctrines granting them rulership over the faithful believer.

It a matter of psychological projection of ones own sexual desire onto some imaginary/invisible evil person like the one they are in denial of. So that to me seems to be the reason for these biblical demonic forces to take human form male looking form with a nice fat cock ready to stuff the first hot virgin he can get his hands and pump it full of hot semen. A Freudian slip in story telling if you would also have it explained where the mythology take shape over eons of time .

Is there truth in religion

by bola in

i am asking this questions due to the teachings, beliefs and practices of different religions..

Brokeback Watchtower

Religion and the need for these story tellers of ancient mythologies formed during the bronze age, will shrink and relevance will prevail as society advances, which will diminish exponentially in the near future causeing many to look for a different source of income to survive, as the foolish story telling business fades into obscurity. Enter the age of enlightenment due to high speed processing and the rest is history. I know 3rd world countries are far behind in this learning curve but will increase at a steady pace and eventually catch up to the more affluent member nations as this technology becomes cheaper and cheaper and more wide spread.

2samuel 21:1.

Brokeback Watchtower

Yeah don't expect increase any more because shunning policies are all over the internet ,, make them look like psychos and control freaks which I'm afraid means nobody in their right mind wants to read their bible word god bull shit. Less attendance, less contributions, as people jump ship or at least stop giving.

This shunning thing has got to hurt them big time. It's down hill from here sorta thing, Organizational increase of space cadets at new unannounced lows.

Making "America Great Again" by an egomaniac President? Can that be interpreted by an narcissist world view and be close to what Trump actually meant? I mean what makes America great anyway? Hard to nail down any concrete definition.

Here's some helpful information on the Paris Accord, I think if you click on it and read more, you might come to the conclusion that Trump's points him out to be a total and very dangerous moron:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_Agreement

The Paris Agreement (French: Accord de Paris), or Paris climate accord and Paris climate agreement, is an agreement within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) dealing with greenhouse gas emissions mitigation, adaptation and finance starting in the year 2020. The language of the agreement was negotiated by representatives of 195 countries at the 21st Conference of the Parties of the UNFCCC in Paris and adopted by consensus on 12 December 2015.[3][4] As of June 2017, 195 UNFCCC members have signed the agreement, 148 of which have ratified it.[1]

In the Paris Agreement, each country determines its own contribution it should make in order to mitigate global warming.[5] There is no mechanism to force[6] a country to set a specific target by a specific date.[7]

Aims

The aim of the convention is described in Article 2, "enhancing the implementation" of the UNFCCC through:[8]

"(a) Holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2 °C above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels, recognizing that this would significantly reduce the risks and impacts of climate change;

(b) Increasing the ability to adapt to the adverse impacts of climate change and foster climate resilience and low greenhouse gas emissions development, in a manner that does not threaten food production;

(c) Making finance flows consistent with a pathway towards low greenhouse gas emissions and climate-resilient development."

Countries furthermore aim to reach "global peaking of greenhouse gas emissions as soon as possible". The agreement has been described as an incentive for and driver of fossil fuel divestment .[9][10]

The Paris deal is the world's first comprehensive climate agreement.[11]

This Weekend's Watchtower Study "What You Vow, Pay" from April issue

by BluesBrother in

just some random thoughts here... theme scripture is matt.5: 33 .

we already had a thread explaining that jesus added a "but" after those words.

however, few would argue against the principle of keeping one's word.

Brokeback Watchtower

The reason for this WT is because about a year ago they made everyone pledge what they could give them monthly and now they are calling in these pledges with a guilt trip. Betcha they get 20% Max on those pledges.

2 As used in the Bible, a vow is a solemn promise that is made to God. A person promises to perform some act, to offer some gift, to enter some type of service, or to abstain from certain things. Vows are made voluntarily, of one’s own free will. Nevertheless, they are sacred and binding in God’s eyes because they carry the force of an oath
