as of yet, no member of the jehovah's witness faith can defend their unique beliefs.
when the dust settles, it all comes down to blind faith in men's ever-changing ideas.
this "unique belief" was not a "true teaching of the bible.
D O T. You are an apologist for eight men.
It was not you who came up with their interpretations.
Why follow their thinking?
They and their counterparts have got it all wrong so many times.
Why not look them square in the sixteen eyes and say I''ll think for myself.!!
i stopped believing in god in july 2013. in the first 3 months or so i felt liberated and relieved that i can live my life anyway i wanted without worrying about an invisible being watching my every move.
i also felt slightly superior that i was able to figure out that god isn't real while the majority of mankind continued to be fooled.
atfer the feelings of excitment statrted to wear off, i started to become more depressed and empty.
Space m is your conclusion;..believe in God and be happier? If so your research should include study into that specific subject.
Consider the consequences of God influenced hatred towards those with differing beliefs .
Do you have statistics on the cost to humanity?
Ranging from whole countries to family units to individuals.
Surely better to live a life based on love than statistics.
Best wishes to you.

The JWs have no truth to defend. They would have to decide which version to accept.would it be the truth they were born into? Or the truth at whatever time they were introduced to the religion, or the current version which they must accept could change without their contribution.All these are various versions of what they like to term" the truth". Knowing this they must accept this term the truth could change in the future as it has in the past.
The problem they have of course is truth cannot change so by accepting as they must if they are honest and have sound reasoning that what they believed as truth has changed(this is a time for honesty) then the only thing they could possibly try to defend is their man made organizations interpretations not truth.
greetings, fellow posters!.
movies can easily show emotion on an actor's face, or depict what he's thinking by his actions.
not so easily in writng.
The shadows were longer now as the sun still strong
In the sky waned in the kiss of gossamer clouds
The small crowd that gathered in the tortured neighborhood
Stood silent children huddled clinging as if for comfort
My gaze took me to the object of their bewildered curiosity
A girl stood motionless arms outstreched an expression of
Peace on her beguiling features captivating , irresistible
I drew irresistibly closer
I too became entranced
She cast no shadow

jw's are suckers.. they got fooled.. they devoted their life to a fraud.. they have been ambiently abused.. they have been used for the money.. they are stuck in a sick mindset.. with sick people.. in a sick temple.. and (the real estate fraud) makes money off the sickness.. i say run away fast.. get your family.. get your friends.. get your kids.. run as fast as you can.. don't look back.. eventually you will heal.. eventually..
W.y.d, I am sure athiests do care , especially concerning deluded individuals who who spout their supernatural NON.....SENSE on this and other forums.
As for ' raging' .I sense a tinge of rage in your reply.
"Nobody cares"...to which nobody's are you referring?
"Scream it from the mountain tops ".....No need its staring you in the face if you'd only care to look.
Best wishes to you.

Perry if jesus wasn't available, in the way you perceive him would you still be part of the cult?
Remember the cult is also an interpretation of jesus(in part ) would you agree therefore they are misguided/ delusioned ?
Your own interpretation is no more than a symptom of the same thing.
I do however understand your commitment to your belief but consider the many many millions that believe in christ
that you would disagree with. Your reasoning only works for you because you need it for a purpose.
That purpose of course may not even exist except in the workings of your consciousness.
I personally feel a different approach could give you a more realistic existence.
Best wishes to you

Eh wait just a doggon minute.!
Perry makes his wild FAITH! based statement asserting that jesus has made us free?
There is obviously no assumption on his part, no proof, nothing except his own supernatural belief system.
Cofty in his own inimitable way is correctly I.M.O, pointing this out.
I dont see a bait trap.
Don't insult your own intelligence perry.Its not too difficult to research and understand that faith baseless NON.....SENSE cannot
stand up against scientific, historical and reasoned facts.
the ever faithful and discreet slave has provided a bountiful season of busy-work for the next 3-4 months!!
memorial season ( the last??
lol!!!
