A flock of people making some amendments in their worship practices doesn’t prove the occurrence of a miracle.

Jesus, without sin and a perfect human being ?
by smiddy3 inhow could he be, regardless of how god impregnated mary, as she was a sinful human just like the rest of us according to the bible.. mary was subjected to the adamic sin like all other humans, so jesus had to at least be part sinner himself.. to believe otherwise is just deluding oneself imho .. the only way jesus could have been really without sin is if god created him the same way he created adam.. what do you think ?

As some say here, Sin is a fallacy invented by religions to suppress and dominate humans. And Christianity plays a major part in this downgrading of Humans.
Yes, Jesus cant be perfect as the JW claim, as he came out of Mary.
The whole world counts time by Jesus' existence because he walked out of a tomb
Really ? Even Mohammed made a round trip to heaven on a flying horse, split the moon in two and made water flow from his hands to quench the thirst of his disciples. How about that.

David Splane's apostate warning convention talk
by neat blue dog ini know this recent video has been talked about already but i just watched it and here are a few things that got me annoyed as usual:.
splane says that if a bible student says he saw some negative information from apostates and asks us to explain it, we shouldn't look at it or address anything specifically, but instead we should tell them to go to meetings and hear what we have to say about ourselves and also tell them to befriend people at the hall.
for any person with integrity and/or intelligence, this is not a satisfactory answer.

First and foremost why do they term anything against them as Poison?
If a poisonous apostate thinking can wreck your faith, sorry brother, your faith is very weak and without any foundation.
How do we determine its poison? What if it’s a life saving medicine? You need not taste anything to check out a Poisonous thing but there are a million other ways to determine if it’s a Poison or a life saving medicine.
Nobody can poison us NOT to believe that the sun or the moon Exists. If that is so, why does an argument against God or the WT so powerful and devastates faith?

The bible says that all nations are like a drop of water in a bucket for Jehovah
And many nations (Saudi Arabia, Singapore, North Korea and many others) ban the Almighty god's most important preaching Work and worship places for decades... And the almighty cant do anything about it. Isn’t that a shame on what they call the Almighty ?
If only the JWs reason out this with an open mind, I think that’s it

Did you think this was it for the Watchtower-(Covid)- Well-They are coming back with even greater ZEAL!
by pistolpete inso you all probably heard that the awake magazine is back, .
https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/?contentlanguagefilter=en&pubfilter=g&yearfilter=.
and one of my jw relatives said they were told by some elders that meetings and field service will resume before the end of the year.. they said this covid virus was a test, like when the romans breached jerusalem and retreated, only to come back later and sack jerusalem.

The Bible and its use of excesses beggars belief ?
by smiddy3 inhow many accounts of the bibles use of excesses can you recall ?

This is the bloody sacrifice of Solomon, in 2 Chronicles 7
142,000 animals slaughtered and sacrificed ? in 2 weeks. Here is the breakdown, if I am correct
71,000 per week
10,142 per day
422 per hour
7 cattle per minute.
Wow, Mind boggling. Could this have happened? Very unlikely. If happened, for what purpose?. To please a god living in the heaven, with all comforts and glory.
My Conclusion: The bible writers were propaganda freaks, trying to establish the glory of their non- existing god. They were Just randomly writing down Exaggerated and impractical numbers. No one in their time would have believed this, until the RC church adopted the Bible as Gods word.

Why did Jehovah choose false prophet apostates as his chosen earthly organization (1919) ?
by Rocketman123 infrom a theological and biblical perspective, this has to be asked and critically examined.. the doctrines this organization and its self described fdsl (gb) chosen ones has preached and taught have now more than ever have shown to be false teachings.. the bible warns of false prophets and those who say things that god has not given them to say but the wts from its earliest beginning made proclamations such as jesus's return in 1874.. so if one were to faithfully adhere to what the bible says and more so jesus's instructions for preaching his gospel of a new kingdom to come, who really are jws loyal to, the wts.
and its top leading men or jesus and jehovah ??
?..

Bible is false, Jehovah is false then why bother about some "False" Prophets.
Actually the word Prophet is a misnomer. Nobody can predict the future. If they do, they would rule the world

Why did Jehovah Kill all the animals in the flood? What purpose did it serve??
by pistolpete insome of my jw family that is waking up posed that question to my jw family that is still hanging on to jw belief.. the stepbrother that posed that question told me;.
"in all these years of being a jw, i actually never gave it much thought as to why jehovah had to kill millions of innocent animals that had nothing to do with mankind becoming evil.".
i keep picturing in my mind, all the baby puppies and kitties that were destroyed by jehovah.

Not only the flood. Even after that Jah commands his beloved war mongers - Moses, Joshua - to slaughter all animals, while they invade a nation

Development of a False Prophecy
by Ding inbased on wt history of repeated false prophecies, here is the way these things seem to develop:.
1. someone connects unrelated bible verses and comes up with a date for the end.. 2. this date is "confirmed" by outside information, such as pyramid measurements.. 3. they share this "hidden knowledge" with others.. 4. they develop a following of people who are excited to be the only ones on earth who understand "the deep things of god.".
5. they promote the date.. 6. people laugh them to scorn.. 7. the faithful cry "persecution" and wait expectantly.. 8. as the date approaches, they get more and more excited.. 9. when the date is imminent, leaders get worried and start to hedge their bets through cautionary language.. 10. when the date comes and goes, they come up with some explanation (adam-eve creation gap, no year 0, etc.

Your WT Modus Operandi is correct. Almost all cults operate the same way
The word Prophecy itself is fraudulant. There is nothing such as a Prohecy. Nobody can predict the future.
False Prophecy = False Lie.
All lies are false. Does False Lie make any sense ?
Thats my honest opinion.
