A Thought Stream Exposed

Thursday, February 24, 2005

A Jehova's Witness knocked on my door this morning.
I was planning to grunt loudly and slam the door at her face as fast as you can say "brain-washing cult". Instead, I just stood there like a dolt and listened to her enthusiastic stories about the environment and the Bush administration. I even took the nicely illustrated pamphlet that she offered. It read: "Sauvera-t-on la planète Terre?". I was thinking, she really believes that she's doing good by wandering from door to door luring other people into her sectarian dogmas. She is a victim of the the WatchTower, the same way martyrs are victims of war. All I could feel for her is pity.

  • In spite of its many failed prophecies, the Jehovah's Witness organization teaches that it is the only true religion, and that only its members are true Christians. It claims that no one can learn spiritual truth apart from them. It also teaches that there is salvation only in joining their organization and everyone but Jehovah's Witnesses will be destroyed at Armageddon.

    Isn't that just a little bit presomtuous? Isn't their religion supposed to be about modesty?
    Apart from that, There are so many scandals and lies inside their society. I just wouldn't recomend anyone to join them.

  • I understand all these comments as Ive acctully done somthing about it.I'm (or was at least)your typical hard parting lad with Girls ,Making money and having fun as my life goals.Ive slammed the door on my share of witness too. But not wanting to be a hypocrite,I actually took up a offer of a free bible study and blow me down! it was great.I must admit It seemed so basic and fariytale' at first , but as my understanding grew I could get into the really deep stuff and I all makes sence.If you think you dont have any questions about religion then make the effort to talk to somone with real knowledge.The witness's have a hughe level of knowledge as they study the bible and dont just make up a good story that gets bums on seats in churches.They have given me enough information for me to really know whats going on! man its so clear now I can really see why they feel so strongly about getting the word out to people.Im not 'pushing any religin' but dont listen to anyone about what you should belive,but listen and learn a little and get it for your self.Im not a witness but I have nothing but good things to say about them.Who knows one day when I get the balls to speak out I might.B

  • Do some research on where their interpretation of the Bible comes from & who wrote it, with what qualifications. Compare the NWT (JW's Bible) to others. Things are subtly changed to skew the Word.

    Jesus Chris is the answer.

  • NADER....
    FIRST I'D LIKE TO SAY THAT YOU HAVE MANY MISCONCIEVED IDEAS ABOUT JW'S. FIRST THEY DO NOT BELIEVE THAT ONLY THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN LEARN SPIRITUAL TRUTH, IF THAT WAS THE CASE THEY WOULDN'T GO DOOR TO DOOR TRYING TO TEACH THE TRUTH TO OTHERS. THEY DON'T SAY "IF YOU ARE NOT A JW YOU WILL DIE IN ARMAGEDON..." THEY ARE SIMPLY TRYING TO HELP OTHERS INTERPRET THE BIBLE, AND TEACH WHAT GOD SAYS WILL BE THE ONLY WAY TO REACH SALVATION. IT'S ALL IN THE BIBLE. ANY BIBLE YOU COMPARE TO JW BIBLE WILL SAY THE EXACT SAME THING.
