So does the Almighty God Jehovah make mistakes, or is the society NOT his spokesman?

I see parallels between the scientific method of developing a working knowledge of nature, and the religious efforts to explain it all. Most present religions, because they are based on past theories, but declared "holy" that can not be questioned, of divine origin, are actually proven wrong, superceded by what we know now through observation. So:
Religious experiments a la watchtower, putting doctrines out there to see whether they will match upcoming events are futile if based on these ancient, repudiated scripts. The creator has not by inspiration rvealed scientific laws, nor religious ones, otherwise these would prove fulfillment today.

stuck , both points you make are true. If one believes the Bible ,the OT is full of Gods mistakes.
And the statement that " God is the same today as he was yesterday and will be tomorrow" is disproved by the addition of the New Testament teachings.
And what can we say about the JW Society with their apalling record over this past Century , they chop and change their position at the drop of a hat.

Yes, so how does the Organization get there? If God never spoke to the GB like Moses and the other prophets, how would they know that the WTS was the only legitimate religious group? If everything is invisible, doesn't that raise any eyebrows?
