"Imitate Jehovah" CA Actually Didn't Have That Theme At All
by JW_Rogue injust got back from "imitate jehovah" ca and noticed that the theme was never really used at all.
all the talks were about family, preaching and getting along with others in the hall.
they didn't once go over an account of how jehovah acted in the past and how we should imitate that action.

You know the interesting thing about it all is that's exactly what flushed human perfection down the toilet.
Because Satan wanted to imitate and be exactly like Jehovah!
These morons don't know what other shenanigans to come up with.

Critique of the lastest New World Translation?
by dontfitin inhi, i'm a long-time lurker who is still in due to family.
i'm hoping someone here can help me.. is there anywhere online that i can find a critique of the new bible revision?
one of the things that really got me was when i researched about the new world translation and found how there was no basis for adding jehovah's name in the new testament, and then other areas where they translated to accommodate their interpretation.

@ FayeDunaway - yeah, it truly is tedious work but well worth it. I got tired of hearing those maggots on the GB with other brothers parroting how great this translation was.
Let's just say that as it stands right now, the translation is an injustice to the writers but more so to God who's Word they have clearly adulterated and poisoned.

Crazy things said by Higher Rank Witnesses
by GrownMidget init was the week when circuit overseer comes and my relatives wanted to offer the food.
i had got my school friend, a muslim girl, going into the meetings and she actually progressed and went to the field service, but never got baptized and one day she just disappeared.well anyway, this overseer comes for the free lunch and then when we are sitting in the table with his wife and my relatives, the muslim girl comes as the subject.
overseer throws out this absurd asshole joke that because their family doesn't like witnesses his father will come with a truck and drives it through the kingdom hall wall and then it explodes.

Yeah, these CO's are nothing less than gum on the sidewalk for me.
They come around real quick when they are no longer needed by the WTS. Then they act like victims the little turds.

@ dontfitin - oh yeah, definitely keeping a log.
I'll post my findings perhaps in about 6 months or so. I'm going to check the original language and note the intended expression and how this also compares with the RNWT. It may take me about 1-2 years to accomplish the Old Testament given other obligations. I'm working on the New Testament at the moment.

It's an interesting thought yet seems a little far fetched.
I say this being that any high control group uses intimidation and fear to control their members.
They even have Anthony "the Mane" Morris III telling parents to not give their kids car license until they commit to getting baptized. Clearly coercion and blackmailing tactics forcing a young one to love Jehovah God.
This sinister and despicable tactic will ensure the next generation is trapped having spouse, kids, and in-laws as JW's.
But I will keep my fingers crossed.

Missing Friends.
by Resi init's been a long time since i posted.
for a brief recap, i have an aunt who is one of jehovah's witnesses.
when i was really sick, i sought out their group because i remembered the support my aunt had and how they were like a second family to her.

Resi,
Your post really brings to light how conditional and insincere the Jehovah's Witnesses are. When they first show up at your door step they behave like your long lost cousin specially if you accept the literature. And if you actually accept a study right then and there, wow, you are literally that person's BFF. And if you ask to accompany them to a meeting then WOW they will literally kick their spouse, kids, and grandma out of the vehicle just to make sure there's space for you and you can attend.
It's insulting that true friendship is based on whether you agree with the anti scriptural teachings of their Organization.
My suggestion would be to emotionally end your relationship with them in every possible way. The thing is while you are reminiscing and dreaming of times past, these incredibly shallow, robotic, imbecilic, and misguided people have probably already acquired another person who has replaced you as their new BFF.
