'So what do you think of it all?'

meat pie

This was a question asked me by an elderly brother when I first started attending meetings. I took it to mean the meetings and said 'well everyone is very kind and friendly'. To which he replied 'Ha! just wait till you get to know them!' And I thought he was joking.

We all imperfect, meat. what do you expect?

Hi Hilda,

We are all imperfect meat alright, God saw to that, but it does seem that his holy spirit could at least direct his faithful and discrete slave to not make so many different mistakes on doctrine, to the extent that if you go back 100 years almost nothing that was taught then is the same today. What's up with his spirit???

good question mate!!!!

why can't the HS make things clear to faithful servants?

itg can't be that they are too weak to bear them at the time...thats not a logical answer, since an organisation consists of weak and strong people.

the correct answer is that there is no holy spirit..

why did we believe this crap???

because we were all a bit dumb, we allowed our critical faculties to be suspended..

whatever, this silly woman posting here wants to say... the majority of jws are from the 'below average intelligence' side of the fence.

ask any group of elders -- among themselves they will admit most of the people in the congregation (even in 1st world nations) do not understand the WT articles..

why -- because their education and reasoning abilities are inadequate for this task

Or that the logic used by the WT writers to prove their point is sooo far-fetched...

Considering that the WT literature is written for children to understand it does not make sense that the adults cannot understand it.... unless of course it takes so many twists and turns that anyone with a thinking mind would get lost -- opps sorry think that is their "tacking into the wind" theory

We not sure we agree with statement about nothing not same. but let us say this. today wt say that when we devote ourself to Jehovah--we devote self to his will but still use our will.

we all free. God's spirit guide his people. but we have submit to spirit. we can grive spirit or just not allow self guided by spirit. then we make mistake in doctrine or missapprehend the will of Yahweh.

brother russell once quote bible verse in James 1:19. It say be slow about speaking. brother russell say that if we not slow to speak bout doctrine--we may run head of God spirit. Me think that answer to question. God spirit not blame. man blame.
