Of course when you show that to a JW it never applies to the watchtower. To them any changes coming from FDS is "new light".

Loving provision from Jehovah.

Just adding a bit to Phizzy's excellent post:-

Aw 1970 4/22 p8

"When a woman in Canada was asked how she felt about the changes in her church, she replied: “I don’t know. Maybe you can tell me. What are they going to do with all those people sent to hell for eating meat on Friday?”
Not just a few Catholics have asked such questions. The change in teaching has shaken their confidence in the Church. Would you not feel the same way if what you had always been taught to be vital for salvation was suddenly considered unnecessary? Would you not be inclined to question other teachings of your church also?"

How many requirements have been relaxed or altered in WT Land?

page 12

"It is clear that confusion and unrest are widespread throughout Christendom’s churches. They are being battered hither and thither by the winds of change, like a ship that has lost its moorings. They have no apparent guidelines. Rules prescribed yesterday are no longer valid today, and so people conclude that today’s rules will not be applicable tomorrow. "

How many changes in belief have ocurred? How many rules have been changed?

The shifting sands of WTS theology identify it clearly for what it is, nothing more than the opinions of ordinary men. It masquerades as a "Sprit directed", God given belief system......

Isn't this what religious hypocrisy is all about - condemning things in other religions that are rife in one's own religion? Truly, it is plain, old-fashioned hypocrisy that is the main theme of sectarian rivalries.

My assertion (since I got free of the WT) is that the WT Society changes its doctrine more than any other religion on earth. I think most JW's will acknowledge this to be true, even if they try to offer reasons why.

Ask any JW " How do I know the 'new things' will be truth in 5 years?" They will not be able to explain that.

Good catch, Phizzy!

Just about everything the wts comes out with will be changed at some point.

It is just the opinions of men.

Thank you Phizzy!
