Ask in return; "Are you ready if Armageddon doesn't come in the next 5, 10, 15, years or even the next century?" It's been a comin' for a century now. Soooooon!

exJW Psychology 105--"Are You Ready for The Big A?"
by Billy the Ex-Bethelite ini don't know how many others have gotten this question that i got recently.
i wonder if it was the co that thought this would be a great question to try to reactivate someone like me:.
at the time, i was kinda blindsided by the question and gave just an okay response.

Witnesses: Why The 1/19/14 WT Lesson Is Dangerous
by Apognophos intoday's watchtower lesson touched on the history of hezekiah's reign, and then made a surprising modern-day application.
having used my time before the meeting to research the underlying material instead of highlighting my magazine, i personally found this to be an upsetting study, and decided to put this warning here in the hopes that some active witnesses read it.. the most important thing i want to say to you is that the actual flow of events in this bible account were severely misrepresented, and that there are some disturbing implications in the distortions that were made.
1. hezekiah's father ahaz makes himself a vassal to assyria out of fear of their overwhelming might (2 kings 16:7, 8).. 2. upon becoming king, hezekiah rebels against assyria (2 kings 18:7).

Nice job of presenting a realistic account (timeline) of what really happened and why.

What is the Whore of Babylon up to these days?
by rebel8 inwhen i left decades ago, she was like 76 years old, smoking crack and wearing way too much makeup for her age.. the rumor was the wts was sending the flock messages about the closeness of the big a based on how old the whore looked.. by now she ought to be like 95. she probably lives in a rest home and can't crawl up on the beast anymore because of her arthritis.
she just rides her hoveround now.. she's probably annoying her roommates with repetitive stories of the good old days when she used to ride the wild beast and it would do her bidding.. i imagine she tells this story about every 15 minutes, forgetting what she said earlier because of dementia..

Build it and they will come
by Pete Zahut in"build it and they will come".
i said, " in a world filled with crappy fast food restaurants that should never have made it, movies and tv shows that are terrible yet make millions, celebrities who are famous for doing nothing and butt ugly crappy cars that were built and sold by the millions; if you put "it" out there and are consistant about it, people will eventually find you.
no matter how bad mcdonalds food is for you and (tastes) there will always be a line of people out the door.

They say " 7 milllion people can't all be wrong " .
Especially when the Octo-Pope tells them that they're not wrong!

jws are the most annoying patients
by rebel8 infor the small percentage of the population jws are, they make a disproportionate amount of ruckus for hospitals.
i'm not just talking blood here, either.. waaah, your clerk accidentally typed the 3-letter code "jew" instead of "jeh" when recording religious preference.
you're persecuting us by trying to keep our elders from finding us when they visit the hospital, and you're violating our constitutional rights!

The wtbts's blood stance has, in a way, made rank and file jw's and the medical community enemies. JW's are taught in a subliminal sort of way that the medical community is 'out to get them'. As a former elder I talked to many who were afraid to get critical medical care because of the fear of having something "forced" on them. i also worked in a hospital for several years and know that 99% of medical professionals want to help preserve life and health. Too bad Rutherford and Mad Freddy came up with the "blood" prohibition.

Peace In The Middle East - It's a comin'
by scotoma infrom the un news centre (with breaking news from the un news service).
un officials hope observance of international year will lead to israeli-palestinian peace16 january 2014 the united nations today launched the international year of solidarity with the palestinian people, with senior officials urging that the observance be used to redouble efforts to achieve a durable peace between israel and palestine.. the coming year will be crucial to achieving the two-state solution, deputy secretary-general jan eliasson said in his remarks to the un general assemblys committee on the exercise of the inalienable rights of the palestinian people.. mr. eliasson said israeli and palestinian negotiators are working hard towards a peaceful, comprehensive settlement of all permanent status issues.
that means a settlement that ends the occupation that started in 1967 and which would end the conflict.. it also means securing an independent, viable and sovereign state of palestine living alongside a secure state of israel, where each side recognizes the others legitimate rights, he added.. the secretary-general and i urge all in the international community to work together to translate the solidarity and desire for peace expressed on this occasion into positive action for security and for justice.. last november, the general assembly adopted a resolution proclaiming 2014 as the international year of solidarity with the palestinian people, and requested the committee to organize activities around the observance.. general assembly president john ashe told todays meeting that he hoped the year leads to robust support for the people of palestine.

The true NATURE of God, as seen by the writers of the EDEN story--.
by prologos inon the "picture--" thread, bloody hotdog made an interesting observation on bloody sacrifices that please god.
: can you picure it?.
cain, being an astute observer, noted that god approved the bloody sacrifice given by abel, so he upped the ante' and sacrificed his brother under the guise of anger, jealousy, striving for monopoly.. did god see it coming?.

Prologos and Comatos----
So true about the stories in the Bible. I always wondered why Jehovah required bloody sacrifices instead of something less violent. If Jehovah was in charge and really knew that taking a life, even in sacrifice would be so repulsive and contrary to human nature, why did he require it. Why didn't he warn Abel that his brother was seeking to slaughter him? Why did he let Satan seduce the woman? Since Satan had already rebelled against God and Jehovah knew that he had rebelled, why didn't Jehovah protect his human children from this rebellious spirit? Why did Jehovah order the Israelites to slaughter the Canaanites,man, woman, and CHILD? Why didn't Jehovah just have the people living in the "promised land" removed without violence? When we read about all the animal sacrifices at the temple, we have to imagine hundreds of gallons of blood. I think that the priests were better butchers than ministers of God.
It disgusts me to think that the God I was taught to worship is so blood thirsty and unloving. JW's today are suppose to warn people of the coming disaster right? Why didn't Jehovah warn Adam and Eve or Abel of coming disaster?
Just saying!

Do you think that the WT has gotten stranger as time goes by or is it that with distance comes perspective?
by 4thgen inthe preaching the jw.org thing is so strange.
the two generations "new light" is crazy.
but then again i look back at some of the things i believed and taught wonder 'what was i thinking'?

Once you get ttatt, everything that the wtbts says sounds strange.
