I can't believe you still parrot this thinking:
>As for “the truth”, I do believe that Jehovah’s Witnesses representations are genuine. I do not believe they have absolute truth or that they posses some unique and critical knowledge unattainable elsewhere. Rather, I believe what Jehovah’s Witnesses hold as “the truth” is a way of life. In their endeavor to mimic the earliest Christians in following Jesus they believe
their manner/way of doing so is most acceptable. In that case, since the early Christians believed they were in “the truth” then Jehovah’s Witnesses likewise genuinely feel they are in “the truth.”
The religion is a cult that is beneficial only to those who lack self-confidence in their abilities to make their own decisions. I can understand those who are approaching death or have nowhere else to go, now that they are too old to change their situation.
I can't understand those who see the deceptive practices of the WTS heirarchy and continue to support their efforts by word and action.
Do you have any idea what JWs (who do not partake the emblems at memorial) are in for, if orthodox Christianity is correct about the afterlife?
Do you not realize the mockery of our 'memorial' with 14,000,000 pseudo-christians shunning the celebration of Christ's triumph?
I pray that you wake up soon, brother.
