Jehovah /Yahweh which is it ? or something else yet to be revealed.

by smiddy in

if jehovahs witnesses are using the wrong name of god "jehovah" how would that affect your worship ?.

2. if yahweh is the more correct name of god of the bible how does that affect your worship ?.

3.jehovahs witnesses put great emphasis on gods name ,sanctifying it treating it as "holy" and that jehovahs witnesses are to make it known in all the earth .

EverApostate

This Supposed Almighty God couldn't preserve his own name in his own book for almost 1875 years until C.T Russel would appear and then restore it. Absurd !!

i was looking around from some information on the wt's stance concerning the use of stem cells, and i came across this article on a defending jehovah's witnesses blog.. rather than informing the reader all that much about stem cells, the author diverts the conversation into a discussion of "blood fractions" (*note: the term "blood fractions" appears to be another one of those wt bloodspeak terms coined by the wt.

"blood components" or "blood products" are the terms used more frequently by the medical world.

"fractions" implies tiny amounts).

EverApostate

Even if Blood fractions are acceptable through this self righteous manipulation, where do they get the blood fractions from ? From some "worldly" people who donated their blood. Isn't it Unrighteous to have a policy of "NOT to donate blood" but accept components.

Please tell me: what is a relationship with the "person" Jehovah like?

by Maryo in

does anyone out there know of any jws that have talked about what their personal relationship with jehovah was like?

for example, hearing his voice, a certain feeling?

an intellectual understanding?

EverApostate

I tried so hard to have this sort of "personal relationship with Jah", after every time I heard this from the talks or any other dub. Hell, it never happened. Not surprised now, as I had realized that there is nothing such as Jehovah.

Just because something is old, does not mean it is "Special" or "Sacred" or "Valuable"

by stuckinarut2 in

a thought occurred to me that simply because something is old does not make it valuable or worthy of sacred reverence.. the bible is held up as sacred just because it is "old" and apparently preserved.. but, that does not make sense.

if in thousands of years someone finds a notebook of my scribbles or sketches that i threw away, that doesn't elevate them to "valuable status" simply because they survived.

they were thrown away because they were worthless.. or if an archaeologist finds an ancient broken bit of pottery that was used for garbage disposal, it doesn't change its status from what it once was - a garbage bin.. i guess what i am trying to ask is, why is it that we as humans give value to writings just because they are old?.

EverApostate

Holy Bible. I would call it anything but Holy. A mumbo jumbo of ignorance, silliness, vengeance, arrogance, myths, contradictions, partiality, lewdness, a little of true history and a few sprinkles of good advice. Why is this cocktail considered Holy. Because the Bible says so.

Are Jehovah's Witnesses Mind Numbingly Boring To You?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i honestly think they are the most boring people on earth!

even when they produce their so called "new light", there's no excitement.

jws just do their thing and refuse to think about their useless lives.

EverApostate

When I was in this CULT, I was so afraid to say to my JW associates and even to my wife, that the meetings are boring and Field service is another useless and pointless activity. Many a times I would pretend that I was excited by the boring and the ever repetitive talk from the platform or from any new books , number of people getting baptized and so on. In my inner self, there was this nagging thought that these are too good to be true and too silly to do(Field Service and reporting the time). Whenever I go on field service every Saturday morning, I would feel that this is the most childish and silly thing to do, to go and preach about some silly non sense. Ahhhh,,, feeling so liberated now

last convention before global attack on witnesses

by Phoebe in

jw
friends

so it's not enough that i'm dealing with post traumatic stress/anxiety and panic attacks all related to my life as a jw (50 years baptized -- i stopped going a couple of months ago) at 3 a.m. i get an email from the other side of the world.

'you have to go to the convention.

bro sanderson says we must watch the news, things are happening.

EverApostate

My sincere advise is, read a lot about the doomsday cults in History. This "End of Day" panic alarm has happened thousands of times in history, by various christian denominations. Nothing happened and we are still here. Educate yourself about this universe and its REAL history. This planet will survive all along, unless destroyed by mankind or by any astronomical Disaster, like the hit of an asteroid. Religions want to control you through FEAR. Become immune to it.

by TerryWalstrom in

we are sick with sin and we’re trying to get well, right?

2. when you hire a coach to get you to the playoffs and win the big game, yet you lose...lose...lose.... do you fire him, or, do you keep him on?

well, then, how do you explain fred franz being made president after the 1975 fiasco?.

EverApostate

Cold Steel,

Are you still faithful to the Watchtower ? If so, you are rebelling against Jehovah and his organization by visiting and blogging on this site. How do you explain this. Anxious to know

Birthday Party

by OnTheWayOut in

jw
friends

i have posted less and less personal threads because less and less jw-related activity has happened in my life.

my jw mother called me on friday and asked me if i could do something on saturday.

i was sure my wife would ask me if anyone asked about her, and what i said.

EverApostate

OntheWayOut,

Seems we have a similar situation. I have a JW wife and mother and had similar events like this. I was a JW for 11 years and finally disassociated. I never miss your comments or posts, as they are very sensible. Appreciate your humor on the beheading in birthday parties. Cant believe that I once believed this "Birthday is evil" nonsense, while in the cult

Someone Tell Satan to Stop Tampering With Evidence Please!

by notsurewheretogo in

fantastic find on ancient human remains.

wish satan would stop doing this as clearly humans have only been on this planet 6,000 years!.

Religion = Fear of Death X Insecurity of life. This makes the religious people believe(or pretend to believe) all the religious nonsense, despite the overwhelming proof of Evolution.

RC 2017 talk: Safeguard Your Children From “What Is Evil”

by wifibandit in

you read that right.

there is a whole talk on the topic.. .

outline: safeguard your children from “what is evil” co-tk17-26-e. .

EverApostate

Children shouldn’t be allowed to read the Bible which contains so many evil things. Also, they should be thoroughly educated that all religions are scams and all gods are man made.
