Pat Robertson has something in common with JWs

Pat Robertson has something in common with JWs

Wow. This could be right out of an elder’s mouth, straight off the pages of the Watchtower Magazine. See my earlier post on the tract “The End of False Religion is Near.” Robertson Says All Other Religions Worship “Demonic Powers” Why [do] evangelical Christians tell non-Christians that Jesus (God) is the only way to Heaven? Those who are Hindu, Buddhist, Islamic, etc. already know and have a relationship with God. Why is this? It seems disrespectful. Robertson replied that it…

Evangelical Atheists Oppose Christian Nationalism

Evangelical Atheists Oppose Christian Nationalism

I would like to see more opposition to the (so-called) christian nationalism (or dominionism) movement that has such a destructive effect on the American values of liberty, justice, and freedom. Opposition from the perspective of atheism(s) is one method: As an “out atheist,” Collette-Van Deraa said she often feels scorned as the other – “capital O in quotes.” “There are misconceptions that atheists hate anyone who is in organized religion, or that atheists are baby killers or old-people killers,” she…

I have been told I have a distorted view of the Bible, that I am part of the great (?) Babylon. My parents haven’t seen my son in 1 year – they also are part of Babylon – and they live only 1 hour away. I’ve been told that God doesn’t hear my…

Another JW Joke page

Another JW Joke page

Some of the Jehovah’s Witnesses jokes have been translated into Swedish. Very fun. Du vet att du är ett Jehovas vittne om… 1. Om din reaktion inför ett kors är densamma som en vampyrs, kan du vara ett JV. 2. Om du tror att demoner kan krympa sig själva för att komma in i smycken, möbler, böcker eller blÃ¥ smurfar, dÃ¥ kan du vara ett JV. 3. Om du förknippar siffrorna 1 till 5 med timmar pÃ¥ en rapportblankett, kan…
