  Today's WT glancing at the opposite sex is flirting and therefore immortality

  by purrpurr in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in today's wt study it makes the point that just glancing at the opposite sex is flirting and can lead to sex!.

  so are jw's now to wear blinkers?.

  also jw's are told to go and confess to the elders if they have any immoral thoughts?!!.

  Did you hear Stewart use the bible to prove an incredibly good point to Jackson!!

  by umbertoecho in

  i thought at the end, stewart made brilliant use of scripture (about establishing fornication or other sexually immoral practises) how, in such a clever way stewart used scripture to point out that some one could basically stake out someone's house to see if a person stayed over night be they homosexual or heterosexual............that on the basis of a sort of stakeout, the two witness rule was ambivalent yet it prevailed.

  due to sufficient suspicion.. and therefore why did this "suspicion" not prevail with child sexual abuse.

  Judges 4:4,5

  4 Now Debʹo·rah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapʹpi·doth, was judging Israel at that time. 5 She used to sit under Debʹo·rah’s palm tree between Raʹmah and Bethʹel in the mountainous region of Eʹphra·im; the Israelites would go up to her for judgment.

  Jackson was wrong that there is no Biblical president for Women to be part of Investigation & Judicial Committees.

  Need the hardest evidence possible that humans have lived for more than 6000 years

  by ILoveTTATT2 in

  since coming out of the witnesses, i have gone through a transformation in thought and in mind.

  i started with the usual: i thought that jesus was god.

  then i investigated more about the bible and thought that the bible was not true, given the many contradictions, failed prophecies, etc.. then i investigated evolution and read lots and now i accept evolution and natural selection as things that are true.. now, i need to make my dad rethink everything.

  Do you mean to say that there was a change in the wording of the article?

  Or do you mean that there was a change in the way they define Babylon The Great (as compared to older publications)?

  @Juan Viejo2 Today's capture was me, just a min ago. There were none when I tried to look.

  We would need to get the best possible video files. Does anyone know if the Royal Commission records what they stream? If so, we may be able to request the video files.
