JW.Org masturbation video - a sign language translators thoughts
by Esse quam videri inthe watchtower 'masturbation' video has caused quit a fuss and imo rightly so.
let me relate an experience that took place almost 40 years ago, in the 1970's.. i was translating for several families who attended our hall from outside the territory.
the reason they came to our congregation is that i was the only one in the area willing to exert myself to learn the american sign language.

For his talk I translated to the spoken word, however, when such words were used while I was translating to the American Sign Language I always spelled them out. More tasteful. The translator above is outrageous. I wonder how many 'homosexuals' spend time viewing that video. -

The Watchtower 'masturbation' video has caused quit a fuss and IMO rightly so. Let me relate an experience that took place almost 40 years ago, in the 1970's.
I was translating for several families who attended our hall from outside the territory. The reason they came to our congregation is that I was the only one in the area willing to exert myself to learn the American Sign Language. Among these families was a very gentlemanly and distinguished brother. He would have excelled in anything he chose to do, except for his deaf handicap limiting him. His ears had become infected at the age of three and resulted in total loss of hearing. He was a fine example of a father taking the lead in his household. He worked hard, attended all the meetings and was regular in field service. In his younger years he had been on Canada's Olympic weight lifting team. He was very precise in his sign language. He regularly gave talks on the Theocratic Ministry School. My duty was to interpret these talks, from sign language to the spoken word.
One #5 talk was on the subject of 'masturbation'. Being the 'nincompoop' he was, the Ministry School Overseer decided to not give the talk to an elder or a speaking brother BUT to this deaf brother. It was my duty to translate this 'masturbation' talk for the benefit of all in attendance, about 100 people, young, old and everyone in between.
The sign used for masturbation was the same as used in the WT video, and I emphasize this, the deaf brother gave the talk in a very tasteful and discreet manner. It was a model of a speaker giving a public discourse in a way that was not offensive to anyone. My delivery followed suit.
Imagine my shock, which grew to outrage and anger, at that offensive, disgusting and, to use Tony 3's favourite word, INAPPROPRIATE video by the present Watchtower leaders.

If he becomes one of the Governing Body, he would probably be the most 'thinkingest' one yet. Know doubt he would be giving JW.ORG video talks 'espressoing' his new thoughts and ideas. The ideas that he just 'loves'. -

i may not have all the facts correct.

Sorry for the interruption. I Googled and found the list on Topix JW's
It is the following:
"The following questions were prepared by the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society in reply to a request for debate from the Moody Bible Institute. The Society proposed that if they could satisfactorily give them Bible answers to these questions, then they would be willing to debate. An answer was never received.
1. Was Eden on earth or in heaven?
2. Was Adam created mortal or immortal?
3. If Adam had not sinned, would he have died?
4. On account of sin Adam died, so does that prove he was mortal?
5. Is there a difference between eternal life and immortality?
6. If Adam had lived forever, would you call that immortality?
7. Can a person live eternally, and yet, not be immortal?
8. If Adam could not go to heaven without dying, and could not die without sinning, does that not prove sin was a blessing to the human family?
9. Did Adam lose an earthly or heavenly home?
10 If Jesus came to restore what Adam lost (Luke 19:10), what will be restored?
11. Was Adam a single individual, or two individuals in one?
12. If composed of two parts, soul and body; which one was Adam?
13. What was the responsible part that could think, feel, and act?
14. Which part was it that sinned, soul or body?
15. If it was the soul, then why does the body have to suffer?
16. If it was the body, then why does the soul need to be saved?
17. In Genesis 3:11 (“Who told thee thou wast naked?”), which part of Adam did God talk to, soul or body?
18. What is the “thou” referred to in Genesis 3:17 (“Thou hast eaten”)?
19. If you say it refers to the soul, then to what does the word “thou” refer to in Genesis 3:19, 20 (“Dust thou art, and to dust, thou shalt return.”)?
20. How many different penalties were passed on Adam for sinning?
21. Was one penalty pronounced against the soul, and a different one against the body?
22. Then, explain Ezekiel 18:20 and Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6, 10?
23. Is the penalty mentioned at Genesis 2:17, different from Genesis 3:19?
24. If there was only one penalty, what was it?
25. Does the Bible say the penalty against Adam, was death, a returning to the dust?
26. Or, an endless life of misery in a burning hell?
27. Suppose that all that happened in Eden, no Savior had come; where would the human race spend eternity (righteous David, for example.)?
28. Did Jesus really die when he was impaled at Golgotha?
29. Or, was it only his body that died (implying that Jesus soul is immortal)?
30. If Jesus had an immortal soul that did not die, and that immortal was Jesus himself; have we not been misinformed that Jesus died for sinners?
31. Why not just say that the body Jesus lived in died for the body Adam lived in, and that the real Jesus did not die at all, and the real Adam (and the rest of humanity) simply was not (were not) saved?" -

Years ago, in the 70's I believe, there was discussion about the Moody Bible Institute challenging the Watchtower Society to a debate. The Society told Moody that they would agree to a debate IF Moody answered a series of questions. Apparently the questions were never answered and the debate never took place. Does anyone have a copy of these questions? I think there were about 30 in total.

"... I hate those stupid Caleb cartoons. I hate his crazy mother. A person has to be a total idiot to like them".
Would anyone try to correct your thinking? If so, how?
