      Video was good despite some inaccuracy. I won't bother to bring up the stuff about the name issues, but you definitely have the wrong view about the JWs and the NAZIs. The organization was in full support, but Hitler didn't trust the organization, but he would later come to trust the individuals themselves. They enjoyed privileges others didn't, but, that so surprising... After the war most didn't return to the organization, because they said it changed too much during the war. You see they were very antisemetic until that point. The version of events you gave are what the JWs claim, but actually go digging and you'll find out I'm right

      @caitlyncarvalho7637 - That's like asking, "If Amaterasu didn't exist, where did the Japanese royal family come from?" Or, "If Helen of Troy didn't exist, where did the Greeks (Hellenes) come from?" People sometimes come to believe their ancestors include deities or mythical heroes; it's called a "legendary progenitor."

    im currently writing a novel where a character believes himself to be God, that he was born in this world for a purpose and thus will do anything to achieve his goals, committing atroocities for those who don't believe in his will. After his conquering and he becomes a tyrant he looks back and sees himself as a pure holy thing but everyone else sees him as a monster. Personally I find the idea that with "divine purpose" as dangerous it gives people a self rightous attitude to what they're entitiled to.

      Sounds good. I'm an author and playwright, my Kingdom Series took inspiration from the Jehovahs Witnesses when I created the cult in the first few books (I'm very proud to say I've had a few emails from former JWs who found the books very helpful to their exodus)
      Tyrants always, always think they're the good guys. Especially ones of a religious persuasion. On a small level, Charles Taze Russel should have been humble enough to realise that he wasn't chosen by God once his first prediction failed, but instead he made it "spiritual" so that it was from then unverifiable.
      But very few monsters think they're monsters. Which is why all of us have to be cautious. "Divine purpose" is ridiculously dangerous if it takes you away from the simple purpose of service to others, feeding the sick, helping the poor. All the major cult leaders saw the wrong done in churches so felt they were called to start again and put things right. Funny how they all felt God was raising them up to greatness when Jesus Himself called people to humble themselves and serve people.
      People are very, very good and convincing themselves that they're the protagonist in a story. We all do this to some extent. The more self-righteous we are, the easier it is for us to believe anyone opposing us is not only wrong, but evil. And evil people can be removed without qualms.
      Your novel sounds like is has a great premise, I hope it develops well. Human beings are easily susceptible to what you describe.

It had a window to see into the chapel and also a speaker for the PA system so anyone in there could still hear the sermon. It was a small room with a crib and some toys, a couple of chairs and a small table. It was designed specifically for moms with babies or small children and it was used for my Sunday School class (which consisted of me, my sister and my cousin lol).
    The basement of the church had a full kitchen and dining room, though. Always thought that was cool.

We would do 3 or 4 songs at 10 and then prayer requests, hand shaking to make everyone feel welcome, and then the next fourty minutes or so would be straight preaching, after that we’d do the same thing again after a ten minute break with a different sermon and songs

    • @ckEagle165
      @ckEagle165 8 месяцев назад +7

      I'm not saying you're wrong about Adam and Eve, but science can't prove the existence of God, which means it can't disprove God's existence either.
      As a Christian, I keep asking other Christians, "other than 3 chapters from the Bible, who says God didn't create the universe in exactly the way science keeps proving?" Their answer is simply, the Bible, and it pi$$es me off to no end! Seriously, isn't the big bang, and the universe dancing its way to how it currently is, way more creative than, "I told it to exist, and there it is!"?
      So yeah, I think the Adam and Eve story is either a one off event that happened separate from, but concurrent with what we know to be true of evolution, or it's a creation myth designed to tell the story of a loving God who made sentient humans for relationship rather than as slave labor, like a lot of other creation myths tell.

    • @ckEagle165
      @ckEagle165 8 месяцев назад +6

      Also, I wouldn't say Darwin was THE greatest, but definitely one of the greatest, and easily the most noteworthy. I seriously believe that because of the church being so oppressive towards science, there are a lot of other truly, just as great biologists who we will never get to hear about, including several Muslim biologists who conservative white nationalist Americans deemed as terrorists.

    that's crazy because in the congregation i grew up in, they're new earth creationists. my father was busy trying to convince me on how the earth is less than 10 thousand years old and radiometric dating is just a myth. he's an elder in their congregation by the way

    F*ck me those Sunday meetings were the absolute worst. Soooooooo boring. And depending on the time of year we might have to get up early to go to it. Not to mention the day before having to get up early on Saturday and not watch cartoons but go and piss people off by knocking on their days the whole time being terrified to run into any of my classmates. I knew I was in a cult around the age of 7/8 and was so embarrassed.

I'm actually surprised she didn't hiss at them lol but she took the envelope and closed the door on them.

    about the "pity person" you were describing - i've experienced that exact same thing in a few of my college classes, but more specifically, last week my entire undergraduate studies class of about 18 (well, about 11 actually showed up) got kicked out and sent home for the day because no one was prepared to endure yet another socratic seminar about an extremely niche topic. the frustrating part was that i'm pretty sure someone was about to do the classic "pity answer" but the professor wasn't having it since less than half the people that showed up had hard copies of a 10-page reading that apparently we had to print out and fully annotate. i've never been a part of JW or any major religious organization in general, but i kinda related to that point.

    You're supposed to write prayers and answers to prayers in your prayers journal. It's how some people strengthen their belief in God. I've done it too. But I haven't been asking as much lately, and have been studying and practicing Buddhism too, so in the most recent prayer journal I bought, I've been just reading the Bible verses on each page in their context in my Bible and writing my thoughts on the topics.

    I am Catholic and I had religion as a school subject in class, tought by sister Angela (nun). Well, in 3rd grade some of the kids asked sister Angela how it is possible that the Bible says about God creating world in 7 days, Adam's rib etc. and in biology class teacher said about the apes, Big Bang etc. Sister Angela explained very calmly that all of this doesn't contradict itself cause The Bible is not a historical chronicle, rather a word of God and also a book written very long time ago, in another culture, so it has lots of metaphors and symbols and we, Catholics, do not have to look at it like at a textbook about how the world begun. She also added than whatever process there was in creating a human, we believe God controlled it and made it happen. It was kinda natural to me for years, and still is, that the Bible and science are not contradictions, especially when I found out that some famous scientists like Lemaitre or Mendel were Catholic priests. I was in shock when I've heard people in America actually think the Biblical story of creation is an actual historical fact and they have problems with science class facts. I am really glad I was raised in Europe 😂

    I just found you today and have been binge-watching your videos all day long. I'm deeply saddened by your experience within the Jehovah's Witness faith regarding your family; I wish your story was rare but it seems so commonplace in this maligned replica of Christianity. I'm a Christian myself, but I've never believed in cramming dogma and doctrine down anyone's and throat. I strongly feel that coming to faith is a deeply personal choice that should be made through one's own volition, an experience pure and devoid of any fear mongering and extortion which could only pervert and undermine the foundation of their faith. The song "More Like Falling in Love" by Jason Gray is a perfect example of what true Christianity should be. I can't understand anyone who claims to love God but carry an intolerant and pious attitude: the exact opposite of what Christ taught.
    For what it's worth, I just wanted to say thank you for not lumping all Christians into the same category, even though we disagree. I appreciate that respect and I hope good things come your way. ❤

    I love your videos Owen. Watch them all the time Wondering why does it bother you so much about them miss naming the god if you don’t believe he exists anyway Is it just because the people back then actually worshipped Yahweh and should be recognized. And you say in this video that they are trying to prevent people from calling him by the proper name I mean if they worshipped him by the right name it would still not be true right so I was just wondering about that if you happen to see my question? Thanks .

Colluphid's trilogy of "philosophical blockbusters" is considered controversial but is less controversial than The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

    I see the vowels are - יְהוָֽה (taken from Sefaria)
    The 1st makes an ə sound
    The second makes a kind of õ sound... like in כל (its a patah, not a horek, ith that's what's called)
    יְהֹוָ֗ה -
    But this is how i saw it on chabad (1st time when i saw it in hebrew in context actually) & the 1st vowel makes the sound ə the second is a horok (sorry if i mistake or misspell the mark name, but it makes the sound o, n the 3rd is the patah (sorry if agn i misspel, & it makes a kind of o sound but not the same kind of o...
    Tho how it is presented in the most ancient scroll idk/dont remember...
    The sefaria one (where i read, directly from search) seems like has put the tetragramation marks as a random, but on the chabad its like its from there... anws it doesnt has the vowels in same order as in adonai - a o a i ? Would be?? So ... totally, cant even pronounce... where you got that info from anws? Just asking...
    Anws interesting materials..
    I had a mate from that religion 😂 we kinda bullied her in the start but then got to get along w her (even if not all the times..) still to this day i remember the 1st history lessons on primitive ppl... i was sitting w her on the last desk & she started to kinda bug my head w : oh we dont believe in that cs x y z (totally disregarding foundings like Lucy the humanoid ape, dont remember well, an astrolopatus or how s it, &* the fsct that we have rebutary organs like those molars (mind teeth is it? & the apendix... or the way the fetus evolves in the mothers womb put that paralleled w the evolution narative story & other comparative proofs of which i read from an old biology book...
    - back then i was a Darwinist, at least so i called msf, idk how i got interested into religion - ith it had to do w the mood swings during pandemic...

    Poor little Caleb seems to spend a great deal of time doing what Harry Potter fans would call muggle-style cleaning.
    I find it irksome that the Caleb and Sophia videos try to present cleaning as fun, with happy music and a satisfied look at the end, or they try to present cramming for a meeting test as being like getting a nice meal (although that meal didn't actually do it for me, but, whatevs). Or there's Caleb's happy fantasy of winning a race, with music, whereas, in reality, after sitting for an hour or two in a Kingdom Hall, your body must be screaming to move.
