My point is that Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania comes across like a cult.

dont you have a sticky rook on the fifth to sort out, a 1900+ rated player who does not
know how to win with a rook and a pawn v a lone king and a pawn, care to explain
this? It is after all, one of your games, is it not?



and the explanation is?

Lol. So do all religions.

But the point that you are apparently tring to make as most do is we can't be the "right" religion as we are different then the so called mainstream religions. Right? If so what the heck does that have to do with who God approves?

Not exactly. I have friends who tried to walk away from JW and had an experience that would suggest that JW is a cult. I also know - very well - someone who walked away from Scientology and had a heap of creepy trouble. I walked away from being a Catholic with no 'cult' like problems.

they cannot even tell the difference between a watchtower article and the Bible, an
article relating to those who will survive Armageddon and a scriptural reference
detailing the resurrection of millions after the event, yet here they are, professing to be
experts on our beliefs and practices? why, because if they think it is, well it must be, it
deserves to be mocked for the sheer negligence to detail and lack of substantiating evidence.

[pgn][pgn] [FEN "8/3k4/8/r6p/8/6KP/8/8 b - - 0 53"] 53... h4+ 54. Kxh4 Rb5 55. Kg4
Rc5 56. h4 Rd5 57. h5 Re5 58. Kh4 Rxh5+ 59. Kxh5[/pgn]

My opponent was ill, and requested a draw. I gave the win to him to relieve him....... what's your problem WITH THAT? You know so much, don't you, about life!

Sorry, can you let it lie amongst all of your bigger problems. Don't waste my oxygen please. As for your analysis, you were wrong anyway, but why are you bringing chess issues to spirituality? A bit lost are we? 😀

You are a wasted twat, to be frank. And you representation of JWs stinks. You aren't a JW, you just take the piss out of them. Alert, if you want, but it won't change you, will it?????????????? 😳

I am not "apparently trying to make" any such point. I don't think your religion is any more or less "true" or "right" than Dasa's or my Muslim neighbour's. The topic here is whether your organization is a "cult", not about "so called mainstream religions".

Of course I could recognize the difference between the WT article and the bible: I asked you about the WT article over and over again. And I asked about your beliefs. I never attempted to quote scripture at you. It was you that kept evading the point blank question by mentioning the bible. Pointedly so. Go back and read the exchange.

you never gave him a win at all, the game was a draw, you do know the difference
between a win and a draw, dont you, so lets get this, your opponent was ill, so you
played, ...h4, he was still ill a little time later so you played, ...Rb5, he never
recovered, so you played, ...Rc5, he was still ill some time later and you played
your sticky rook to d5, again he seemed to be poorly so you played, ...Re5, my that
is a sticky rank and eventually the game ended in a draw,

1.so we are asked to believe your opponent requested a draw and rather than give
him one, you played the worst endgame i think i have ever seen, why not offer him
a draw out right, he was after all ill.

2. It was a clan game, was your clan leader also aware than you throw won games
by offering draws to poorly opponents?

3. why bring it up, because as on the chessboard as in life, lies and hypocrisy dont
last very long, that is why. You may draw your own conclusions from that, or will I
spell it out for you, at your level.

robbie isn't capable of answering logical questions, as he believes he is above them, and yet he doesn't recognise them. It's defined as a simple human flaw, but for him it's unfortunate.

Maybe you didn't but I know many who did. Their families "shuned" them and I have seen that first hand with my mother and her family in the Baptist religion. Once she decided she no longer wanted that religious belief, her relationship with all her relatives has never been the same and that was not something she provoked.

Just go back and read this thread, if you're in the mood. His twisting and turning and stonewalling is truly peculiar.

Yes, well, Ok. I detest cult like behaviour by which I mean the treatment of members and ex-members that goes with it. So you won't find me defending anything of that nature.
