  Silly Bible things you notice when your awake.

  by Crazyguy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i sure you guys can list others but here is a thought about the exodus story.

  in chapter 1 the pharoah is concerned that the israelites are becoming to numerous.

  and just as a side point we can assume pharaohs were not to dumb and even if they were the smart people of egypt studied in the temple 40 years and they studied all things not just religion.

  15 The king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, whose names were Shiphrah and Puah, 16 “When you are helping the Hebrew women during childbirth on the delivery stool, if you see that the baby is a boy, kill him; but if it is a girl, let her live.” Exodus 1:15-16 New International Version

  Two midwives for hundreds of thousands of women (Exodus 12:37)?

  Blurring of genders

  by Saltheart Foamfollower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as sometimes happens at elders meetings with the co, he has a letter from the branch to read out.

  this rarely is made available later so any policies have to be acted on from memory.

  this visit a letter was read about blurring of the genders and in particular brothers dressing in a metrosexual style - tight clothing was mentioned again.

  "...elders should watch out for any brother who displays effeminate traits, bearing or body language (without defining what they mean exactly) and to give counsel to them."

  Maybe they could look up to this as an example:

  Did anyone see Jackson state "celebrating Christmas not a df'ing offence"?

  by Crazyguy in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i have seen posts on several you tube sites stating that jackson said during his rc testimony that jw's don't shun, celebrating christmas is not a disfellowshipping offence, birthdays are ok and ones doesn't have to agree with jw doctrine.

  i have read most of the posts on other threads while and after his testimony but never read any of this?

  did he really say these things or is someone on the net just stirring up some bs?.

  Juan Viejo2: "Does anyone know if they are still using CDs or are they now using DVDs?"

  The copy of the 2013 library that I have describes itself as a CD.

  Is there any statement in the literature, including elder's handbooks, that says the celebration of any holiday is a disfellowshippable offence?

  Is that actually a JW trolley or just a generic picture? If it's authentic what happened to it?
