  Sorry to bust anyone's bubble but the "bible" was written by misogynist desert nomads attempting to explain life

  by park ave boy in

  2. bible

  i remember growing up preparing for the number 2 talk and reading over the verses.

  one time i had a chapter in joshua to read.

  i started reading and i was like "wtf?

  It's all Jewish mythology IMHO!

  Add Lot to that list too! (and we all know what he did to his daughters!)

  Do you think that Lot's virgin daughters had hymens? Bible doesn't mention any "interference" when old Lot was raping his daughters. One would think that "whiskey dick" and a strong hymen might have prevented old Lot from violating his own daughters--but in mythology ---all things are possible!

  Jephthah's atrocity

  by opusdei1972 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in judges chapter 11 we read that jephthah committed an atrocity by offering his daughter in sacrifice.

  however, the watchtower, study edition of april 2016, reads:pages 6 and 7:not only was jephthah a mighty warrior but he was a student of gods dealings with his people.

  jephthahs thorough grasp of israels history gave him a clear picture of what was right and what was wrong in jehovahs eyes.

  The 'story'of Jephthat's daughter is just that--a story, a fable, an urban legend. It's all part of Jewish mythology, written by mystic old Jewish men for Jews.

  Do Jehovah's Witnesses dedicate themselves to an organization or not? Which one is it?

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  anyone that is/was a dedicated jehovah's witness knows that the worship of the ''faithful and discreet slave'' is the only relationship we know.i don't remember having a personal relationship with jehovah without the governing body being in the way.they make all the rules on every matter.anyone who thinks that jehovah has any control on your daily matters is a fool.jehovah's witnesses only answer to an organization!.

  "we do not dedicate ourselves to a religion, nor to a man, nor to an organization.

  no, we dedicate ourselves to the supreme sovereign of the universe, our creator, jehovah god himself.

  Of course the real answer is that they dedicate themselves to the organization because the organization is a real entity. The other option is just not real!

  Why do girls have a hymen?

  by JWchange in

  1. social
  2. family

  if you believe humans evolved, and were not created, why would having a hymen help, especially as no other mammal has one?

  if you believe humans were created by {a} god, or intelligent beings with advanced technology, what was the reason for a hymen?

  i'm interested to hear your thoughts on this unusual subject, not many people talk about..

  Has Watchtower financial strategy taken a very dark turn?

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as shepherdless pointed out on another thread, the watchtower business model of using free labour to produce and sell books and magazines for profit started to break down when charging for the literature ended in 1990, and has now begun disintegrating completely in the face of the internet and declining donations.

  over this same period there has been a noted increase in hardline rhetoric on disfellowshipping and pushing early baptism.

  might these hardline trends actually be related to their money woes?

  Everything about the Watchtower has taken a DARK turn--IMHO! But then, I've only been associated with the borg since 1951.

  I don't know about the hymen but have always wondered why men have foreskin. More importantly, why did jehober want the foreskin cut off? It's kind of a sick ritual--right?

  What's the status of this org financially?

  by megaboy in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  soooo... i think the main strength of this group is having the finances to keep this con game going.

  i'm hoping that the pedophilia cases are draining them dry so we can be rid of this stumbling block from an organizational stand point.

  how is the constant surge of bad news getting out on them effecting the everyday person in this organization?

  When the product that you 'sell' is no longer in demand, business dries up and eventually disappears. No wonder the WT for years vilified the internet. It slowly killed their printing business and they haven't figured out a way to capitalize on free information.

  Their situation was predicted at Revelation 18:11

  11 “Also, the merchants of the earth are weeping and mourning over her, because there is no one to buy their full cargo anymore,"

  Seems like a quite a few ex-jw's became famous musicians. Poor kids, they must have had "spiritually weak" parents!

  i was listening to beyond belief yesterday, a radio 4 programme that treats religious ideas as worthy of consideration and discussion.

  yesterday they were talking about belief in the afterlife.

  they mentioned something i'd never heard of before.

  In those days, silly religious ideas sold. Today it takes naked women to sell something!

  I'm content with today's marketing!
