JW.ORG quotes - use of wording that makes them look like what they are not

by Esse quam videri in

comments have been made previously about the watchtower using emotion to sway peoples thinking.

this is evident in the new breed of garbage song videos and the kiddy cartoons.

when relaying current news, the same tactics are used.

Comments have been made previously about the Watchtower using emotion to sway peoples thinking. This is evident in the new breed of garbage song videos and the kiddy cartoons. When relaying current news, the same tactics are used. A careful examination of the Watchtower's real stand on certain issues often reveals the fraudulent misuse of the wording it uses. Take for example this 'news item' now showing on JW.ORG.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2014 | ERITREA

Twenty Years of Imprisonment in Eritrea—Will It Ever End?

Twenty years ago, Eritrean authorities arrested three young men and detained them in harsh conditions in the Sawa prison camp, where they remain until this day. They have never been charged with a crime, nor have they been given the opportunity to defend themselves in a court of law. Why have they been unjustly imprisoned?

Paulos Eyassu, Negede Teklemariam, and Isaac Mogos are Jehovah’s Witnesses and conscientiously object to performing military service because of their strongly held religious beliefs. Had they been formally charged with the “crime” of refusing military service, they would have been sentenced to a fixed prison term. Paulos, Negede, and Isaac, now aged 41, 40, and 38 respectively, have spent their youth in confinement. They have been denied the opportunity to marry and have children, give support to their aging parents, or live their lives as they choose…".

They ask,' Will it ever end'?

We would do well to ask, about their manipulating words, ' will it ever stop'?

JW.Org masturbation video - a sign language translators thoughts

by Esse quam videri in

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.

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.
