Jehovah

Yesterday evening a couple of middle aged women knocked upon my door.

As members can appreciate, I am in a particular mode right now so I took the opportunity to engage with these women claiming to be witnessing Jehovah and find out a little more as to their agenda related to being witnesses of Jehovah, since I have my own opinion on what that agenda is, and have shared it most recently in the OP of this thread as well as in my posts in said thread, as well as in other posts in other threads.

One might say I am perhaps a little obsessed with the subject, but in reality it is more a case of trying to understand something which - whether w'all like it or not - affects and effects the goings on of human beings on this planet...so I am, trying not to ignore it, or fall at its feet in fearful worship of it or consign it to the 'evil god' department and pooh on it.

So with the opportunity at my door I allowed the communication to proceed and took the time to interrupt these women now and again to give them information pertinent to what they were conveying but they had never thought about before in relation to Jehovah.

This caused some interesting reactions.

First I asked them why they knocked on peoples doors and they said something about a 50 foot tsunami coming and what would I do in relation to knowing that and would I not try and warn the neighbors.

Rather than go off on a tangent explaining the holes in their metaphor/analogy I decided to ask them what they are saying on Jehovah's part which offered assistance in relation to the impending doom of Armageddon.

They said that Jehovah had a plan and they would be okay.

I asked them what in a nut shell the plan was.

They said Jehovah would bring in his kingdom.

I asked what that meant...they quoted the prophet Daniel in relation to the The Kings Dream story and
the stone which crushed the statues feet of clay represented Jehovah's kingdom destroying the systems of disparity (my interpretation of 'the worlds kingdoms') and making everything all right in the world again. Essentially the promise of a system of parity set up by Jehovah


AS the conversation flowed, I told them briefly my understanding of what was happening and included the logic of how prophesy of future events that can be created and made to come to pass simply through having the money and position of power and influence to actually bring prophesy into reality (make them actually happen) and explained to them why I thought Christianity was an invention of Roman and Jewish intelligent planning in order to control people and get them to more readily accept systems of disparity in order to get those people to calm down and tow the line.

Thus, perhaps then a message of hope where in fact the message was made up and was not from Jehovah at all...Jehovah had other plans.

I put that idea into their heads.

Something to think about...

As expected, they battled on with their 'Jehovah isn't like that' attitude, and not one to want to burst anyone''s hope bubbles, I directed the conversation to what I though 'GOD' was, and told them about First Source Consciousness, and went through the points about my theory of simulated universes, and this planet/universe being a place where evil aspects of FSC came in order to rehabilitate from their experiences with the practice of pure evil.

Furthermore, I said that I saw Jehovah as the creator and administrator of this - our simulated universe, but also saw him as somewhat representative of FSC and for that matter...not only the creator and administrator but also the consciousness experiencing this universe in our forms....essentially connecting the dots from FSC right down through the simulations and into this one, because that is the self aware source of all Consciousness.

I told them that WE were really Jehovah and that the systems of disparity used organised religion in order to make us believe we were separate from 'GOD' (FSC) in that way. I explained that putting the idea of GOD upon a throne and making us worship that idea as if we were not ourselves also self aware beings all derived from the same source...

...They told me Jehovah was not like that.

I told them, 'that is not what organised religion is saying...

They told me they could not accept my understanding that Jehovah and I and them and everyone was essentially the same consciousness and I could see clearly how immediately their body language responded to such a thought and the walls went up immediately and they said that on this point they could not step over that line, and even when I explained to them why they could not (because of the dogma organised religion uses with their adherents) they categorically said that they could not move forward with me on this and all communication is now pointless.

I replied 'does that mean you won't be knocking on my door again?'

:)

"Because, if you do - be prepared to have more of the same. After all this is my door you are knocking on."

They left in an amicable enough manner...

I am inclined still toward the notion that systems of disparity will not be overcome by 'Jehovah's Kingdom' and Jehovah will leave us to our fate because Jehovah knows that if we cannot do it for ourselves, then we do not represent Him anyhoo.

In other words, if we can do it for ourselves, then we are Jehovah after all.

On that note, and because we live in this universe and there is much time and space in order for us to eventually get our **** together, we will - lots of pain to come yet - find a way in which to do so.

Parity.

The poor buggers.

Because back in the day when the JWs saw the tsunami of Nazism coming, they no doubt tried to warn their neighbors and no doubt believed that this was Armageddon and that Jehovah would rescue them with his kingdom and deal to those nasty Nazi...but instead Jehovah allowed them to burn in the ovens along with everyone else not a Nazi.

Obviously, it was not the time for Jehovah to bring on the kingdom...I can see the logic in allowing for a graphic example of evil to have its way as a lesson in not what to do and what to look out for and avoid in the future...but did any of that sink in?

Have any of the historical lessons sunk in? It seems not, so business as usual...

*sigh*
 
This gave me a wonderful flashback to the door to door days of my youth when I was, not a Jehovah's Witness, but a Seventh-Day Adventist. An elderly man invited me in, let me give my spiel, but then unloaded incomprehensible, metaphysical esoterica that made my "Great Controversy between God and Satan" seem Washington politics by comparison.

Yet, I admired the old guy. He had his own stuff. I could tell it was unique to him. A truly free thinker, though his thoughts were unmoored.
Who was I to offer him the pre-packaged babble I unsure of myself.

You poor deluded fool!
Jehovah was on Hitler's side. 'Got mit uns' and all that.

Well basically what I said to the JW women was that Jehovah did also allow evil to express its thing, because it doesn't ultimately get in the way of his agenda anyway.

Which wasn't saying that Jehovah was on Hitlers side, but that Hitler and Nazism and other systems of disparity were a choice people could make if they wished to, even that his agenda wasn't along the same lines. He wasn't about to FORCE people to make the best choices.

We have the data. How we use it is up to us as individuals.

They agree with me on that...but for a different reason than me 'tis all.

w'all?
 
Dude, those ladies are part of the simulation. Did you think you were going to change the position of automatons? Might as well reprogram the Kobayashi Maru.
 

Sorry my bad. We'll

Dang, I misread the title as Jenova. I was hoping there are people ready to be converted to the church of the one-winged angel ;)

It was not my intention to try and change their minds.

Rubbish.

Last time I had a pair of JWs at my door I was, unlike you, honest. We had an long conversation about the bible. They knew up front that I was not for converting to anything because I told them so from the outset. Nevertheless, we had a prolonged discussion on the bible. It was based on honesty. Yours was not because you had a different agenda. While I argued on their own grounds of the bible you argued on the grounds of your wholly invented (FSC) or whatever it is you call it today. I can see how JW missionaries might be more benign discussing a subject in common rather than a pseudo-mystical ball of of nonsense with a church population: one. They were actually quite interested that as an atheist, I knew more about the bible than they did, let alone that I actually had one to hand, let alone that I was aware of the various translations and their textual context.

Fundamentally, they knew I would not be converted and I knew they would not be deconverted, but mutual respect allowed us to explore our common interest, the bible. Thus a two hour conversation ensued. Civil? yup. Enjoyable? Yup. Educational? Yup on both sides. My impression was that they were quite surprised and enjoyed being engaged on their own turf, as it were. Or perhaps it was a reaction to the many doors slammed in their faces over and over again. I have no way to tell.
 
This gave me a wonderful flashback to the door to door days of my youth when I was, not a Jehovah's Witness, but a Seventh-Day Adventist. An elderly man invited me in, let me give my spiel, but then unloaded incomprehensible, metaphysical esoterica that made my "Great Controversy between God and Satan" seem Washington politics by comparison.

Quite.

I would have carried on explaining the connections in relation to the story of Daniel and other biblical events which involve Jehovah in visions, OOB experiences, dreams and the like...linking that with the concept of Gaia.


I tend to lean towards thinking of Jehovah as more the Feminine and have come to the conclusion that the idea of Jehovah came into the human awareness as it did, through the Earth Entity, who used it as a kind of costume/mask.

While Gaia is able to interact with humans and influence humanity it appears that She only can do so primarily through visions, dreams, serendipity, synchronicity, occult device, etc...and plays the parts of all the many god-type ideas which exist.

Whatever you think it to be, She can act the part.

So the idea that some god is going to actually turn up on the planet and take over the affairs of humanity (as JWs and others believe) is not something she is able to make happen (apparently) but She is not limited by that and uses what she can to influence events and outcomes which She favors.

The god is already on/in the planet and we are all aspects of it.

Perhaps if they turn up at my door again, I will move the conversation to that idea.
 
Last time I had a pair of JWs at my door I was, ...

...the bible...

I did take the opportunity to try to explain to them how the bible is the product of organised religion. They were obviously enamored by the book and I did make the comment that they were more witnesses to the bible than to Jehovah, and it wouldn't hurt them to be more aware of the history and less fixated upon what they think of as 'the word of God'.

One does not need the bible in order to know Jehovah...not that I was saying there isn't anything to be learned in the wealth of data in the book...just that it is best to avoid focusing on it as something to idolize or to use in lieu of actual communion with the being.

Are you still claiming you're not a theist?
 
She's a deist. The universe is god apparently. Basic new age nonsense.
When did The Universe become a "being" you can have "actual communion" with?

Every "God", "GOD", "First Consciousness" (as advertised on the box - all present, all knowing, all powerful, all conscious), has to essentially be The Universe (and beyond) regardless.
