Its not my fault

by incognito2014 in

assume for a minute that god created everything.

there was nothing before him and everything is because of him.

every single thing in the universe he is directly responsible for.. somehow the good stuff we should thank him for but the bad stuff is nothing to do with him, it is our fault.. this world that he created that was “good” has turned in to a right shitshow but despite being absolutely responsible for it from start to finish it is not his fault and in fact he has somehow turned this round so that instead of being to blame he is the person who is going to sort the problems and we should be thankful..

Free will is simply an excuse. God should not need humans to make excuses for him. If free will caused the fall from grace then free will was a design fault. It made 100% of the first humans go wrong and 33% of the angels.

The whole Adam and Eve nonsense (which is laughable from every respect) meant that this free will caused the humans to sin for the most trivial and ridiculous of reasons.

God is just like many modern politicians, he over promises and under delivers. He boasts about his achievements but it's never his fault when he gets it wrong.

In fact, in that respect the Governing body are very godlike.

Craziest thing you ever saw in a KH?

by dubstepped in

i did this in my facebook group for my podcast and it was fun.. so what's the craziest thing you ever saw?.

for me it was watching a brother have a heart attack during the meeting in the auditorium.

i was a kid and noticed him shaking and acting strange.

Wasn't in a Kingdom hall so don't know if it counts. But during a talk in an assembly hall the speaker was listing various sins, can't remember the context and suddenly this "sister" jumped up and literally ran out screaming really loud. Can only assume she had a guilty conscience.

Also at I believe the same assembly but cant guarantee it, as they raised the brother from the baptism pool they whacked his head on a hand rail and knocked him out. It didn't last long he was up and moving again within a few minutes.

I loved the written review. That was the best bit of the meetings for me. I had forgotten all about those.

Who is considered more bizarre?

by incognito2014 in

jws or mormons.

from a public point of view not from people within the religion as that would be obvious.. examples of extreme beliefs or behaviour would be useful..

incognito2014

Woohoo!!!! I have asked a question and got lots of responses. Usually I ask questions (with this or my previous username) and no-one responds and then I start to doubt myself. Thank you all.

Anyway - I always understood it was magic spectacles and not a hat, but the hat seem to be the focus and underpants!.

My reason for asking is that I have been speaking to a Mormon recently, we don't get into deep conversations we just meet while out with our dogs and I get the distinct impression that she don't really understand her own religion but so far all advice has turned out good for her so she goes along with it.

Almost like the JW view that if if it turned out to be false it is still the best way to live *which I totally disagree with as a sentiment).

I would suspect that it is a club just like JWs are and belonging to a club is a good thing.

I have no intention of upsetting the Mormon but rather find it interesting to talk as 2 people with similarly viewed religions in terms of not being mainstream

can you believe this gibberish coming out of their mouths now; specifically from the clown-horse's own mouth :.

"things unfolding around us are making clear that ...(wait for it).."we are living in the final part of the last days, undoubtedly the final part of the final part of the last days,shortly before the last day of the last days"!!!!!!!!!!!!.

i wonder what next...ummmmm...final part of the final part of the final part of the finalpart...(on a recurring loop), you get the idea!.

road to nowhere said

He sounds like a 45 record at 33.

I thought that was funny, but actually just listened to Lett again and he genuinely sounds exactly like that.

It's not just Lett. Although he undoubtedly does not have a face for TV, they are ALL wound up like springs. They think this is it. Some JW contacted me and suggested I look at this video (I had a quick look but couldn't be bothered to watch it. They don't understand that it fails on every level.

They were expecting various other things to happen first.
They are nearly 110 years too late, their definition of last days means absolutely nothing, a day is as a 1000 years, so this last day could well be 1000 years left.
Seeing Lett talk about the last day of the last days is like the boy who cried wolf and does not make me think for one minute that this may be it.
Even if it was it, I couldn't bear going back to those judgmental, self righteous, self centered, deluded, hateful people, for one meeting let alone for eternity
They are looking forward to seeing 8 billion people die, they are not concerned about the virus and its consequences other than that it is a sign as far as they are concerned. If they did anything to help suffering people, such as looking after old people, contributing funds to find solutions I might view them differently.
