  If "The Feast" of the RC is so vitally important for every JW to consume.........

  by Darth Fader The Sequel in

  ....... then why wouldn't the wtbt$ easily make the entire program, complete with rockstar gb's, cheesy dramas, etc, available on youtube or some other free or almost free web streaming service?

  obviously it is a huge burden for a majority of the "friends" to attend a regional convention and many either cannot go or it takes all of our their funds (or borrowed funds) to be able to make it.

  how about all the "friends" that are morbidly obese, infirm, have extreme health conditions, have unbelieving mates, or have mental issues which prevent them from attending a convention?

  Another convenient thing to pull from the OT... traveling to Jer. 3 X each year for the festivals... to further a hidden agenda? Isn't the mosaic law done away with? Did the 1st century Christians go to RCs? Do JWs really follow the example of early Christians? Can I watch it on Netflix? lol

  When my little brother and I would finally get home from fieldservice or the meeting our mom would come in the door behind us and yell..."let the beatings begin!" We were always goofing off...

  I don't always agree with them but I still like them... and the important thing is they help others.

  I fear they will suffer burn out at some point especially if they keep gaining subscribers and continue trying to keep up with all the e-mails. I do agree, short videos are better. For longer topics break them up into several videos instead. Because of their recent YouTube restrictions they have been doing this.

  They plow the road for the rest of us... thanks MK!

  i hate self-promotion.

  but every time i put something out there on the internet, and then promote it, some part of me feels ashamed for drawing attention to myself.

  I found your channel a couple of months ago and concider it one of the best out there. I like the way you avoid drawing attention to yourself and stick to the facts you have uncovered. My favorite playlist is your "When Ancient Jerusalem was Destroyed" which I have watch several times and have played with Sky Chart because of it. The appendix to the playlist is most informative and sets the viewer with the basics needed to comprehend the rest of the series.

  Thanks for you hard work and know that I have been able to share your vids with a life long friend who is now waking up or I should say both of us at the same time!

  Jehovah's Witnesses and "Reasoning."

  by donny in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  back in the mid 1980's the ones in charge of "giving food at the proper time" actually released a book called "reasoning from the scriptures.

  " although this publication supposedly used reasoning as a tool to show the truth if the truth, in reality it just served the purpose of spoon feeding the publishers as they ventured out into field service.. it wasn't until i actually used reasoning as a tool that i was able to break the shackles of the watchtower bible and tract society.. for me it was the issue of jesus selecting the watchtower society as the one and only true religion in the spring of 1919.. as i began perusing though the society's older publications, i discovered that their teaching of jesus returning in 1914 was not the firm rock of a teaching that they had long claimed.

  the 01/15/1993 watchtower had this to say on page 5.. "the watchtower has consistently presented evidence to honest hearted students of bible prophecy that jesus presence in heavenly kingdom power began in 1914. events since that year testify to jesus invisible presence.".

  i'm thinking of scaning a letter to the boe and useing the letter head to make some fake letters and sending them to alot of congros.. it would read something like this.. "dear brothers we are writing to inform you about all the child abuse casers the wts is now in court about and the ones we have quietly settled outside the courts".

  ill name them all and give them links to the courts.. .

  The borg would use it to show the R&F how "mentally diseased" apostates are and it would further feed their persecution complex.

  Are Jdubs going to put the elderly out to pasture with JW.org?

  by Coffee House Girl in

  it will be interesting to see how things play out...but one example which got me to thinking about this is my mother.

  my mom is a 76 year old regular pioneer (she is one of those who believes that you are "nothing" if you are not a pioneer...the position is everything)-.

  i am moving in two weeks to go to grad school, so i have been trying to go out to visit...say goodbye...do things for her before i leave.

  My parents, (78 & 75) are still active. My dad an E and my mom an auxlilary pioneer when she can. Both are pretty computer litterate and are doing pretty good especially with their iPads and iPhones. One of my family members is a wizard with tech stuff and has been able to keep them abreast of all the changes. I don't think this will slow them down at all but I do see it affecting most older ones alot.
