(Side note)
One of the funniest things l ever saw live was a JW wedding service.
By the end all (non JW) women were almost ready to abuse the minister carrying out the service due to the extent of his sexist comments.

Yes it was about that time or a little before. So what does that have to do with anything?
Just because something is old and accepted by the wortld that Satan rules anyway does not mean it's right by any means. In fact the longer that a religion has been around like the Catholics is more time they've ...[text shortened]... all the false doctrines they have. Lol.
So I see no importance to your statement at all....
You give me the final argument that I've saught for so long - that JW culters aren't christians.
Originally posted by galveston75I don't understand why you pick on Catholics. Probably it is just a cultural inheritance from your Protestant roots. Again, I will alert you to the fact that Orthodox Christianity exists, that it is coeval with Catholicism, shares most doctrines and has all of the features which you despise in Catholicism. It escapes me that so many Christians are oblivious to the existence of this group since they consist of about 300 million people.

Originally posted by menace71Catholics are not the only religions at fault but they are the most obvious and the largest and seem to have the most problems. So they have the largest amount of people that have been influanced into the very burdensom and paganistic doctrines that they have to follow.
It is a JW trait to pick on and point out the flaws of Catholicism. In the early days they drove around in cars and trucks with loud speakers with basically Catholic hate propaganda. Is this what God would want? Doubt it.

It's nothing personal against any one person as there are good hearted and kind people in all religions. But it is the ones in charge that are the ones God condemns as well as his son Jesus for not teaching what Jesus did and for hindering the simple truths of the bible..
And if a religion is not teaching truths from his word the Bible and missrepresenting God himself, why would God be happy with that? If he does have a religion that he works thru on the earth, why would they not send a message to others about this? Has there not been examples in the past of a person or people carrying a message of condemnation to a nation or religious group? Of course there has been. If it has happened in the past more then once, why could it not happen again?
Originally posted by menace71So again Manny, is everything written in the Bible literal?
Why is this fact even mentioned if it is of no real relevance?
That's all I ask.
I ask why and what is the significance of the 144,000 being mentioned as not having been with women? And this opposed to men? You can try to spritualize this into something else but it stands as what it reads.

Like google for "cult jehovas witness" and find 144 thousands hits.
There are 144 thousands reasons why JW is a cult. Is that a pure coincident, or what!?
