Or how about the English speaking JWs who say:
'Jeeehovarrr' instead of Jehovah

Sometimes it's the little things....
by dubstepped ini'm listening to a podcast where a former elder describes how another elder conducted the watchtower study about hyperbole.
the elder called it hyper-bowl.
soon the whole congregation called it hyper-bowl.

And Revelation says "Get out from amongst her-quit touching the unclean thing"
That applies to the "unclean things" that contaminate the "Truth"

Yes indeed.
If just 1% of deadly poison in a glass of water makes it dangerous, no amount of reasoning about the 99% of water will make it safe!

Well, it all comes down to one thing: Either "The Truth" is True, or it is not.
Also, if he REALLY values Truth and Honesty, he wouldn't be able to stay in the Organization!

Bumped thread.
For no other reason that to say that we had the privilege of seeing Dawkins live this week.
It struck me yet again, just how ignorant and infantile we were as witnesses. We thought we were so "educated", but the ignorance we all had was more a form of arrogance!
Even the youths in the audience posed such thoughtful questions to Mr Dawkins, that demonstrated their education, yet also their humility. (I was struck with just how stupid the average JW would have come across in such a crowd.)

YES!
Great thread Dubstepped.
We had an elder conducting the group study with the Revelation book once who said "Eye-Slave" (instead of a healing ointment "eye-salve")
Everyone started saying "eye-slave" as well.

They have made this trailer, with a note saying "this public service announcement has been made available for media outlets to broadcast at their discretion"
It is kind of an attempt to see if the media will broadcast it if they have a slow news day.....

Hospitality - How not to.....March 2018 study article.
by punkofnice inwhat do you make of this part of the march 2018 watchtower study edition?.
2 among other things, peter urged his brothers: “be hospitable to one another.” (1 pet.
4:9) the word “hospitality” in greek literally means “fondness for, or kindness to, strangers.” note, however, that peter urged his christian brothers and sisters to be hospitable “to one another,” to those whom they already knew and associated with.

So what did the parable of the Good Samaritan show?
That loving hospitality was shown NOT by members of the SAME religion, but actually by an APOSTATE person - someone who was not of the same beliefs...
So why is it that the GB have tried to redefine that message nowadays?
Hmmm

We do exactly the same ToesUp.
But only just today I got abused by a Jw who said that I was "being a smart arse by trying to act all nicely and friendly" to the witnesses who are spreading spreading slanderous stuff around about us.
He literally attempted to redefine our happiness and kindness, as some sort of fake ploy we are putting on!
It amazes me. If our life turned to shit after walking away from the cult, they would gloat over it and say things like "well that's what happens when you leave the truth"
But if our life is happy, successful and defined by kindness, they will say it's all a put-on!
I shouldn't be surprised really. That's cult propaganda at work.
