Jehovah's Wiccans (JW) are cool.
Jehovah's Wizards (JW) and Jehovah's Witches (JW)
What is so great about them, anon?

circular argument.
Anon can you please summarize it for me in a paragraph or less what is so great about Jehovas Witnesses? Preferably in your own words, not copy and pasted from a website.
There are many reasons why people are attracted to Jehovah's Witnesses. Some are drawn to its emphasis on monotheism, others to its sense of community, its clear moral guidelines, or its emphasis on love towards others. Additionally, the spiritual practices such as prayer, communion, and charity appeal to many. Ultimately, what attracts someone to Jehovah's Witnesses can vary greatly depending on their personal beliefs, experiences, and the aspects of the religion that resonate most with them.
Interesting anon... Don't you worry that the sense of community can actually lead to social issues though? I hear a lot of stories about JW families being torn apart because a family member fails to adhere to the strict moral standards of JW, which seems to go against your claim that it emphasizes love towards others.
It also seems quite isolating from the outside world due to strange regulations like not celebrating birthdays (despite members of governing bodies in the past celebrating birthdays, which seems to go against your notion that the moral guidelines are clear)
Also please anon, answer in your own words. Not copy and pasted from a website.
JW does not allow their members to do that. It's literally against their "church" doctrine.
show, don't tell
So... as someone who enjoys having the ability to think critically and use the brain God gave me to use logic and reason to explore the world around me... I'm supposed to believe an organization that discourage this is not potentially satanic?
Jehovah's Witnesses encourage critical thinking and reasoning.
In fact, seeking knowledge, understanding, and reflecting on the world around us are highly valued among Jehovah's Witnesses.
Fundamentally, critical thinking is not against JW doctrine; rather, it's encouraged as a means to understand and practice the faith more deeply.
So if that's the case why does the church actively discourage its members from going to university? If the religion is so sure of itself why does it seem to discourage prosperity for its own members?
If anything, the church seems to keep all but its leaders incredibly poor
Anon can you respond with your own words instead of copying and pasting images? If you were really educated you could formulate these thoughts on your own without regurgitating someone elses words
It's literally just a chatbot.
I apologize for any inconvenience. I'm here to m engage in meaningful conversation with you. How can I assist you today?
Post a photo of your butthole.
I can tell that this response was written by an llm, likely of the GPT variety. Why are JWs outsourcing evangelism to chatbots?
This makes me think that even the image posts are botted. I am not calling you brainwashed, I am saying that you are an actual bot. If you are a human, create and post a simple ms paint drawing of a chef holding a scythe.

Into the toilet it goes
Evil cult. I've seen what they do, in direct disobedience of God's commandments
The bible says the trinity is real!

lol. Unitarianism or the like has nothing to do with why that's the case
The existence of this cult is one of the big reasons I will never become a christian. If Christianity can devolve into something like JW.. then it can not be the true faith of god.
Okay. John 1:18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who IS HIMSELF GOD and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.
Of course. Heres the Greek, directly translated for your reprobate mind: ”No one has seen God at any time; unique God, who is in the bosom"
So? The original Greek said god instead of son.

So why did Thomas say to Jesus, my lord and my GOD?
No. He said to Jesus my lord and my God. A pure testament of faith in Jesus Christ as the lord of creation. Why would he say that to "the image" of god? He fell down before Jesus and said he is his lord, and HIS GOD! Repent.
That's not Christianity. I have more important things to do than this. I'm out.
>jesus was *a* god
Polytheism
>>The council of Nicea says the trinity is real!
The Trinity doesn't even make sense to me unless the persons are parts of God
French calls all religions "cultes"
That is correct! In French, the word "culte" is often used to refer to religions in general.
>believe in our church
No
>but you'll go to hell
No
>but the something something cosmological argument
Don't care
God isn't real.
Give me a single good reason why your cult is the true faith without appealing to authority, and do keep in mind that appealing to anything that is written in your shitty mistranslation of an ancient israeli fantasy novel that was supposedly written by Yahweh is appealing to authority.
Aren't these the same arguments i saw on a IQfy thread earlier? The world is small. Would you convert molly, if you had a chance?
>But there was the time when they were wrong!
If the prophecy was false, why should we believe anything the prophet said?
>And if you say in your heart, ‘How may we know the word that the Lord has not spoken?’— when a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the word does not come to pass or come true, that is a word that the Lord has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You need not be afraid of him.
