  Have you heard the one about "Back to the Future" Predicting 911??

  when somebody posted this on fb, i was anxious to see how ridiculous it would be, probably worse then the gb prophecies, etc.

  after watching the clip, i honestly don't know what to believe.

  at the very least it's very entertaining and interesting.

  Seriously though......in the 90's there was an Armenian guy that tried to blow up the towers. Its been targeted more than once. So the video game or anything else, really isn't stretching too far.

  I just noticed there is a 9 a 1 and another 1 on my computer keyboard. Its a separate 1 from a 10 key just for all you doubters out there. I have a "double? espresso "shot" on my desk. Double representing the twin towers, and "shot" meaning shot.

  I also just was sent an e mail from my elderly father that claims Obama is pushing sharia law in Montana. I accidentally printed this e mail, instead of my intended irs docs.

  therefore.....my desk predicted 9/11 in reverse.

  This stuff drives me nuts (first video). Does it really take guts to interupt a large gathering by yelling? With every person I have ever spoken to who is now out, I have yet to hear one single story that starts with...."this guys at the convention yelled something that really made me think".

  Instead it feeds the narrative of the fire breathing apostate that they are told to beware of, and that is proof of Satans unique persecution against them. Bravo you moron! You have just entrenched the faith of thousands of JW's even more, while essentially engaging in therapy for your own scars, and coming off exactly like they want you too. If the branch was smart they would get some actors to do this at every convention. It would really be good in continuing the fear narrative.
  

  Drives me nuts.

  Jan 2016 study WT attempt to keep control of professed anointed ones, brainwashing in action!

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a really great example of wt pulling doctrine out of their heiney that nowhere exists in the scriptures!

  when i started waking up to ttatt, i remember in my own reading the tons of scriptures that speak of god, the holy spirit, etc teaching directly.

  tons of scriptures that go against the wt doctrine of only able to learn through them.

  Playing devils advocate here however, wouldn't the scripture be referring to those already anointed? In other words, the scripture is saying that the anointed don't need to be taught. that wouldn't apply then to the non anointed then in their eyes yes?

  The Iron Fist in the Velvet Glove

  the watchtower and jehovah's witnesses are fond of saying there are no automatic sanctions for taking blood.

  that they no longer disfellowship someone who takes blood.

  that they have a "free choice" in the matter.

  Personal responsibility is great. I'm all for it.

  Convincing someone to not accept available medical treatment through horrifically implausible scriptural justification, and then enforcing that belief through a communal shunning program......is not the same thing as being responsible for your own decisions.

  Smart people do dumb things all the time. Haven't you watched the political debates in the US?

  I should clarify. I wonder what the vague attempt at scriptural justification would be. :)
