  The Bible Code

  by m0nk3y in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was in a book store today and there were a couple of books entitled somthing like "the bible code" .

  the idea goes that the bible is written a certain code that when decoded reveals prophcies about things like the twin towers and that kind of thing.

  heres a few links to explain more.

  Has anyone here read these books and what are your thoughts on them. Wouldnt it have made more sence to have just written out the proper prophicies instead of hiding it throughout the bible.

  It seems to me like another bunch of rubbish.

  So, what REALLY happened on September 11, a.k.a. the unknowns...???

  by reporter in

  it's getting on to almost two years since the events of september 11, and it is striking how little we know about what happened: .

  we don't know the real names of any of the hijackers.. we don't know what countries they came from.. we don't know who planned and organized the terrorism.. we don't know who financed it.. we have no idea what actually happened at the pentagon (but i know a boeing 757 didn't go through this hole).

  normal video tapes of and from the pentagon building, which should have shown what happened, have never been released (except for one, which poses more questions than it answers).

  Are the JW rules different worldwide ??? and WHY ???

  by run dont walk in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have read alot of threads recently and it seems to me that each country of jw's has a set of different rules.

  maybe most of the doctrines are the same, but there seems to be a big difference in ............... beards ........ clothing ........ tatoos ......... piercing body ......... grooming in general ......... cars ........... jobs you do ........ schooling .............. university ........... dating .......... what do you think ????????.

  i read one comment (can't remeber who it was) who said that the usa jw's seem to be alot more concerned about stupid little things then most other countries.. hopefully we will get comments from all over the world on this topic, and compare some differences.. also brings up the question why ???????.

  Hahaha, thats so funny that you should mention the Alein movies dobby, they were my favs and mum and I used to secretly watch them all the time .. my god we broke the rules in those days, rebels. The sad thing is looking back at it today it seems so lame.

  Surely we can all make up our own minds what we can and can't do.

  The new book for children.

  by dmouse in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my wife went to the convention yesterday and brought back the new book for children 'learn from the great teacher'.. it's certainly much better than the old pink book, larger and more colourful, even if the pictures have a 1950's feel to them.

  the introduction mentions that there are questions throughout the book that you should ask children to find out what is on their mind... saying ' true, the child may come out with with answers that are not correct.

  but the printed material that follows each question is designed to help the child to develop wholesome patterns of thinking'.... 'wholesome patterns of thinking' eh?

  Oh I remember that as well embalmed, it was a tad disturbing .. I think it might have been in the evolution book or the paradise book. Not sure .. I remember it was definately one we studied at the bookstudy though

  .

  if i were a long haired carpenter that like mucking around on boats and spending my free and easy life of poverty engaged in kind and helping acts, would the elders think that i should be more like jesus, like them?

  Just me probably being a completely clueless freakazoid .. but I never noticed any time in the bible that jesus actually worked with wood other than being called a carpenter. In fact the only time I imagine jesus holding any wood was when he was put to death.

  monk3y

  Ps I wonder if Jesus played with his wood.

  Dedalus, could you please not forward me things that bother you about the society's publications, being that I am someone who reads and follows the society's beliefs? Thanks, I feel it puts me in an uncomfortable position with you and the others who receive the email, being that I am a witness.
  Thanks.

  So she feels uncomfortable about being a witness, how unusual.
