Contention is a heated argument or disagreement.
Dissent is disagreeing with a generally held viewpoint.
Can you see why they have changed contention to dissent?
as predicted by jwn loose conduct has been replaced by brazen conduct.
galations 5:19 2 peter 2:2 .
a catch all phrase for apostates.

i see the wts has now removed the reference to jesus' rendering punishment of death by sword, when the master returns and finds the evil servant abusing the other slaves; they've sanitized the reading of matt 24:51 as this:.
51 "and he will punish him with the greatest severity and will assign him his place with the hypocrites.
there is where his weeping and the gnashing of his teeth will be.".
Adam: Puhleez:
It is not "accurate translation my arse" - it is "accurate translation my DONKEY". Keep up with jehoobie's chariot, it turns on a dime.
Read the noolite about Jesus riding into Jerusalem. The eye witnesses got that animal badly wrong.
i know this is old news, but as i sit here, and ponder the upcoming agm, i can't help but think, " what happened?!!
" i actually awoke an hour before my alarm went off, just thinking of everything that is bothering me about the wtbts.
approach this list as a born-in, someone who was told that you were different from everyone else.
Stand for Pure - You are a Donkey Hole.
a normal person, upon hearing that a new (or revised) bible translation has been released, would have 2 questions spring to mind almost immediately:.
1) who did the work, and what are their credentials?.
2) what manuscripts is the work based on?.
They did it because in their filthy littl sex-infested minds, they actually believe that people reading that Jesus rode into jerusalem on an ass are giggling behind their hands.
As we all know jesus rode into jerusalem on a DONKEY not an anal sphincter. If they make this change in other languages where "ASS in not a synonym for "arsehole," they will make ASSES of themselves, if not Donkeys and ARSEHOLES.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA

the (american) witless justified replacing the correct translation of ass with donkey, claiming we would never describe a happy brother as "gay".
an ass is a different animal from a donkey, making the nwt an inaccurate translation here.. are jdubs sooo filthy minded they think below the waist even in the context of christ riding into jerusalem?.
how do they translate numbers 31: 34: " 61 thousand asses" remember it is not 61 000 anuses.. .

this is my first post.
however, i have been reading this board for some time (call it stalking or trolling...lol).
so, hello to all.. i have had time to reflect on the agm since yesterday and my thoughts are that indeed the nwt needed much revision.
YET THEY HAD THE NERVE TO SAY THAT OTHER WRITINGS "HAVE BECOME ""PART" OF THE BIBLE "--meaning Witchtower LITTERATURE.
Are we to belive that the crap they have printed over 140 years are to be viewed as part of the bible, yet things the early Christians remembered about Jesus are "spurious"?
If the inconsistency of a few verses gets them wiped out, what about all the other inconsistencies in the Gospels?
If the Gibbering Buddies continue like this there will be no Gospels left...
can anyone save me the stress of listening to the self-appointed faithful & discreet slave for 3 hours, and give a clue as to roughly at what point in the proceedings was the derogatory term 'bum witnesses used, and by whom?
i'd really love to extract that comment and send it to a weakening witness, to highlight the judgmental arrogance and name-calling being displayed.. many thanks in advance folks!.
I am with Tenyearsafter on the 1975 stuff.
I lived through those days. My Sister remembers the book study conductor saying "it's only so many years / months till the end in 1975.
What about the "Stay alive until 75" talks? The COs hammering it at A$$emblies.
A Kingdumb Misery actually gave a sample presentation, telling the publisher to "HIGHLIGHT 1975 AS A CRUCIAL YEAR."
Other suggested presentations gave answers we should feed to elderly people we spoke to in reply to "not in my lifetime" - how right they were!!
1975 deniars are LIARS!

Didn't they change Jesus riding into Jerusalem on an ASS because that means a bottom/ arsehole/ bum.
Never mind that a DONKEY and an ASS are different animals: At least we can now prove the NWT is NOT the best translation in the world.
WHO in god's name would think that jesus rode into Jerusalem on an anal sphinctre, other than the gibbering buddies??
brazil.
necessarily in a catholic and priest-ridden country,.
wherein the greater part of the population possess a. small degree of intelligence, the giving of the witness is.
"Ability to associate ideas" - if this is a sign of intelligence, then most witlesses are exactly that.
i know there are some here that are going through some tough times.
some of you do not believe in god.
some are not sure.. i was told recently by a friend to pray to god for help and he would comfort me.. my first impulse is to pray.
If I dont believe in WHICH "god" do you mean?
Look at all the different civilisations in history and alll the gods they prayed to?
So it seems like the more you belive in the particular '''IMAGINARY FRIEND" your culture believes in the more strength you have to cope - even if Zeus or Ashtoreth is just a lie created by gangsta priests to sucker you - Like the Witchtower Babble and Trash Suckerciety does now.
Millions of people lived and live happy lives in the far east, without the so called comforts of monotheistic religions, which seem to cause more trouble and bloodshed than any others - but then they worship a homicidal sadistic sociopath.
We really get our strength to cope from within...
