It is in reality about hatred of Jehovah and His people, easy enough to see BF

Thank you for acknowledging we obey God above men
And allow child molestation and rape to go unchecked in your ranks. You and your ilk are sickening. The worst of the worst.

The wisdom of allow children to be raped by their elders? To allow abusers and rapists the ability to freely choose their targets and get away it? That's certainly a take... But thank you for continuing to show the dark heart and non-thinking done by your cu... errr.... church.

All of us Christians put His word above your opinions.
You also thinks that he wants you to allow children and women within your ranks to be raped and abused without punishment... You and your ilk are sickening. Gross. Disturbed. If there is a God, you will be the first headed to hell.

Absolutely not. Most of us are simply opposed to allowing child sexual abuse and allowing people to die needlessly. Regardless of what you say, that has nothing to do with Jehovah, and nobody has said anything about hating Jehovah. Who do you think are "Jehovah's people?" I think there is a much wider definition than your post implies.

That's just silly. If people don't believe in Jehovah, how can they hate him? You're not making any sense here.

But yes, people ARE angry at the people who use "God said" as their excuse to mistreat or marginalize others. I do think some of you may honestly even believe that the Bible really is actually what God said, all logic and evidence to the contrary and despite the perspective of other Christians that if something smacks of meanness and harm to others, it can't possibly be of God. I'm also pretty sure that many keep their minds--and, especially, their hearts--completely blocked and closed off to considering that they might be wrong. A Bible in the hands of a person devoid of compassion is nothing but a weapon.

Hating the beliefs that you hold (like women being second to men, allowing children and women to be raped with no consequences, all your many failed prophecies, your thought that you are better than the rest of us.... I could keep going?) because they make you a terrible person doesn't mean we "hate Jehovah and his people". It means we hate JW's (and others) who pervert religion and use it for abuse and control of weak minded individuals.

I think not, this is merely a portrait of self-righteousness; and a false claim of persecution in the name of your god.

Thanks again to highway - Satan's little helper - for demonstrating the spiritual cancer that is the Jehovah Witness organization.

Keep on illustrating the rot that bloats the Watchtower and leeches out mindless, pus-filled minions to spread their virus throughout the internet.

Thankfully, normal people are immune, having been vaccinated with average intelligence, common sense and a morality that precludes letting children die of neglect and turning a blind eye to their being raped.

The Watchtower = Satan's workshop.

Or, watching and letting their spouse die - if it can be prevented.

A mother can bleed to death in childbirth within five minutes. But Terlizzi managed to hold on, as obstetric anesthesiologists carefully measured how much blood she was losing and gave her 26 units of blood products — effectively replacing all of the blood in her body.

California decided it was tired of women bleeding to death

I guess they just believe that God wanted them to die? Apparently using your brain and the tools that God has provided (in this case, doctors) isn't something they believe God wants them to do? Baffling to those of us with IQ's above room temp...
