I don't know why you have supplied an MOD medical kit, Joe, Jehovah Witnesses don't believe in the military or politics. :)

Edited:. He also believes that your religion, and your religious beliefs are and I quote, part of "Babylon the Great", a "world empire of false religion" under the control of Satan.

You little satanist, you. ;)

Quoted the entire post before you remove it when you are sober. :)
I'm almost always sober. Anyway. You do what you want with it. It's your record that is established from Dec '22, and your attacks on people as your general way of life as a chatter.

So, say what you want now eh. I'll put you back on ignore again.

Ha Ha Ha.

Watch Your Associations in These Last Days.

WE ARE living in “critical times hard to deal with.” Since 1914, when “the last days” began, conditions in the world have become worse than ever before. (2 Timothy 3:1-5) And we can be sure that the world will continue to get worse, because Bible prophecy says that “wicked men and impostors will advance from bad to worse.”—2 Timothy 3:13.

“Bad associations spoil useful habits”: If we associate with people who do not live by Jehovah’s standards, they can influence us to do what is bad. So we do not choose to spend time with them, become close friends with them, or think of marrying one of them. And we are very careful not to watch, read, or listen to anything that could cause us to disobey God.

Attack on 'mentally diseased' worshippers who leave church provokes outcry.​


The official magazine for Jehovah's Witnesses has described those who leave the church as "mentally diseased", prompting an outcry from former members and insiders concerned about the shunning of those who question official doctrine.

An article published in July's edition of The Watchtower warns followers to stay clear of "false teachers" who are condemned as being "mentally diseased" apostates who should be avoided at all costs. "Suppose that a doctor told you to avoid contact with someone who is infected with a contagious, deadly disease," the article reads. "You would know what the doctor means, and you would strictly heed his warning. Well, apostates are 'mentally diseased', and they seek to infect others with their disloyal teachings."

As a faith with a centralised leadership, many forms of discipline are used to counter criticism of doctrine, with punishments ranging from restriction of official duties to excommunication. Those who have been thrown out of the church often find themselves ostracised by fellow believers.

A group of former Witnesses in Portsmouth have now made an official complaint to Hampshire Police about the article and police are currently investigating.


Angus Robertson, a former Witness "elder" from Hampshire, who was present at the meeting with police officers, said: "The way scripture is being used to bully people must be challenged. If a religion was preaching that blacks or gays were mentally diseased there would understandable outrage."

Critics are also considering whether to complain to the Charity Commission. The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of Britain, which prints church doctrine in the UK, is a registered charity.

Jehovah’s Witnesses are told to have complete trust in the information the Governing Body provides them through Watchtower publications. Is such trust deserved? The articles linked to in this section prove otherwise by presenting numerous Watchtower examples of misquotes, misdirection, lies and rhetorical fallacies.

The linked articles show presentation of dishonest information is systemic in Watchtower publications. Watchtower articles are not "accurate and truthful, even regarding seemingly insignificant details." (Yearbook 2011 p.13)

"External research is not recommended, as Watchtower supplies all the information required."

With such trust, Jehovah’s Witnesses are impervious to the manner in which misinformation is presented. There are many ways of presenting information to mislead others, including total dishonesty, incorrect information, misrepresenting a person's position, misquotes, withholding information, use of ambiguous language and rhetorical fallacies.

The link I posted goes into great detail, courtesy of biblical scholars and academics, the experts, about the lies, spin and misinformation that particular site churns out and the followers of that site.

Think of it like a dodgy second-hand car dealer trying to sell you an old Ford Cortina without an engine but not allowing you to check under the bonnet. :)

It's ok that you're a Christian. It means nothing in Real terms. There was NO GOD that committed Genocide.

That GOD that YOU Believe in.....Doesn't actually exist.

I'm sorry..... I really am.

If there WAS a GOD who Created us???... He would be nicer to us than he currently is...!

Why allow Cancer to occur in Children?

The whole thing is a SHAM.

FCuk GOD...And Fcuk Religion.

:)
