PS: LDH, shame on you, let go of your hate, it only leads to the dark side.....Your points are well taken without the need for poor aurgument like name calling.
Erasmus (1520 AD): "If we want truth, every person ought to be free to speak what they think without fear."
As you may have gathered from your first engagement with YK, he has little interest in discussing but great interest in proclaiming.
I actually know who YK is and what congregation he attends due to friendships that I have in the Big House. He is truthful when he says he has made his views known to the GB. Unfortunately his pages of research did not get beyond low level Writing. He is taken far less seriously by his masters than he is by his 'apostate' targets on this Board.
Still, trading viewpoints with him is worth the sport when you have a little time to doodle with. I suspect that under the eye patch there lies a heart of cold.
You are as welcome to your opinions as I am to mine. And I happen to LOATHE You Know as I have seen his 'waffling' for years. He always makes back door excuses for the Holy Mother Organization. It's disgusting.
Did Jesus politely escort the money changers from the temple? Does Jehovah not feel righteous indignation?
So do I. If you don't like my words don't read them.
"That's a very baited question. As I pointed out from the Scriptures, God does allow stumbling blocks among his people. So your baited challenge has no validity"
Translation: I will not answer that question because the answer makes my religion and me look goofy
but i don't fault you YK i wouldn't answer it either, but let me tell you my man the NON_JW that i share this stuff with all the time have not problem answering these questions- we are once again sitting here int the Server room loading WIN2000 and XP on 3 boxes and surfing the net here at JW,com
and these guys are on the floor at your off the wall Duck and Hide comment
keep it up- guys like you do more for the cause than you could ever imagine-
i see why the boys in brooklyn tell jw like you to stay out of chatrooms
So your baited challenge has no validity. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i love how every time a question is posed that you cannot field, it suddendly gets labeled "baited". my question was not baited, it was simply extremely valid, and you dodged it as usual.

the NONJW guys here at work said the same thing- i just love when YK post he is so good at making wt look so bad
what we will ask is this: if gods holy spirit works directly through the fds, and the teachings/writings of the wtbts are "inspired" in this way, why would god ever have the need to supply his one true outlet/organization with completely FALSE information, and give them completely OPPPOSITE insight on SPECIFIC doctrinal roots from one decade to the next? if it truly is gods organization, and he truly leads his people through this organization, he would not directly lie to them through it. doesnt the bible say somewhere that "god cannot lie"? so why would he supply his fds with false prophesy, time and time again?

i have to save this quote for it truly sums up the problem that wt has since it wants to play "Prophet"
I have stated many times that if they had stuck with merely doing bible commentary they would be fine, but when they went from mere student of the bible to "Head Spokesman' of God on the earth for all 6 billion folks of mankind- that brings with it a different set of Responsibilites- while they want the title of mouth pc/prophet they want NONE OF THE RESPONSIBILITES THAT COME WITH IT
all we are doing is holding their feet to the fire for the CLAIMS THAT THEY HAVE MADE
As you may have gathered from your first engagement with YK, he has little interest in discussing but great interest in proclaiming.
that puts it perfect, yes. i do realize this, but i still get some humor value out of bantering with him. its unfortunate that he is under the illusion that he is a true witness.
