  Today's Text: Proof that God does not abide by His own principles...

  by doubtfull1799 in

  "do not withhold good from those to whom you should give it if it is within your power.

  - prov 3:27".

  by the common christian definition of god, everything is within his power.

  Excellent point Doubtful!

  You make a good case for the hypocrisy of "god" himself as he fails once again to carry out his own directions!

  This reminds me of the other fantastic point you made a little while back, where you showed how those who are appointed as MS or Elders had to "preside over his own household in a fine manner" and "have children in full subjection and obedience"

  Yes, "God" also failed in this point! His own children rebelled (satan , adam, eve), and yet "God" still gets to be "appointed"....

  Using violence to end violence?

  it really is mind blowing when we think about it : witnesses have no problem with a deity who will use violence in order to end violence?!?!.

  armageddon will be gods war to kill billions of people...because it shows his love?.

  thoughts?.

  What is the most bizarre counsel you received as a JW, from a JW?

  by Funchback in

  there were many addressed to me.

  for example, i once had a sister tell me i was gambling because i liked playing skill crane (the machine where you have to try to pick up prizes like stuffed animals) at the arcade.

  i then fired back a her: "you saw the r-rated movie 'backdraft.

  I remember being told that NO witness could support a football team that were called the Melbourne Demons.

  Why?

  Because it would be wrong to cheer "go the Demons!"

  the society, "gods channel" teach and expect truth and honesty from all witnesses.

  scripures are often quoted to promote such.. but, why is it only a one way street?

  why is the society not truthful and honest with witnesses?

  Yes, why hasn't the Society ever provided an honest explanation of their UN affiliation rather than some white washed excuse?

  Why is it that they have gone to great lengths to make all older publications "disappear" from circulation?

  Yes, re-writing of history is anything but honest....

  The Rank Hypocrisy of JW Rank and File

  2. scandals

  wtf?

  russian jw mr novik is shown in full view on jw org wearing the "parental glory" badge with its prominent cross pattee on his lapel - and not one word of caution is sounded.

  similarly, jw forums are abuzz singing the praises of mr and mrs novik and their brood after they received the parental glory honor from no less than jw-oppressor, mr putin.. from the stinking gb heaven all the way down to the dusty rank and file, the hypocrisy is sky-high.

  Yes, the hypocrisy is mind blowing!

  The society is acting like media whores. Just out for attention and the media and social currency this publicity gives them.

  So what? The family popped out lots of kids?! It is cold in Russia after all.

  BUT, why is it only a one way street? Why is the Society not truthful and honest with witnesses? Why are scandals kept quite, and past falsehoods not shared? Why are witnesses not told of the uncomfortable history? Why is it that ones can be appointed in capacities such as elder, and have the responsibility to take the lead, and yet they are ignorant of the very organisation they are taking the lead in?

  The society is boasting about this award etc.

  But I can't wait for the time when many of these kids from that family leave "the truth" (because statistically they will). Will JW.org be so keen to report that??

  hmmm.... didn't think so.....
