  I just checked that verse in Isaiah too, and it in NO WAY resembles the quote at the beginning of this thread.

  KNOX and the NWT do not say it.

  Which translation says this?

  As for "If you did believe in God" Which effing god do they mean? Zeus, Wotan Baal. Actually If I believed in the Witch tower god he would be capricious jealous genocidal petty irascible vengeful infanticidal racist and a mass murderor long before Hitler Stalin or Mao, anti logic pro lies (of the WTBTS) deceitful, unreliable, and unable to communicate clearly his will to the 8 popes.

  New Study Exposes Acupuncture As Pseudoscience

  by alecholmesthedetective in

  besides it being pseudoscience, what interests me about this is that even though it's something to do with the "qi" energy flowing in our bodies, that wasn't a problem for some members of my family or a special pioneer i knew.. new study exposes acupuncture as pseudoscience.

  OH and I forgot "QI" means energy, it is not a type of energy. Dont nerves use ELECTRICAL ENERGY? It took the west long enought to find that out too.

  So how do we dismiss MAINSTREAM doctors in China performing surgery using acupuncture instead of aneasthetics.

  WHO exactly did this study, who was it funded by and what alternative were the (nodoubt) pharmaceuticals firms pushing as an alternative?

  Acupuncture certainly alters the brain's perception of the body. it has been used for bowel problems and depression, very effectively.

  It is a discipline so old it was being practised in China when we in the west still thought that leeches would balance the four humors.

  The energy flow theory behind it may not really be the explanation, but western doctors dont understand it either.

  The watchtower quoting itself as if it were scripture about weddings...

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the 1997 wt, 4/15 page 26 is about weddings and more rules the wt tries to enforce to take the fun out of even weddings.

  "while a disfellowshipped person could be allowed to attend the talk at the kingdom hall, the watchtower of april 15, 1984, said: it would be unfitting to have in the wedding party people who are disfellowshipped or whose scandalous life-style grossly conflicts with bible principles.

  - isn't that funny?

  They have already stated that the body of Christian Litterature has "become part of the Bible (!!)" - So they can quote it with the same authority as scripture.

  What is your weirdest field service experience ?

  mine just popped in my head and i just had to share it.

  a few years ago i went with a special pioneer(and elder) at one of his studies who was a cow herder in the mountains.

  obviously, even though we were going to the middle of nowhere, where no one lived, we just had to go all dressed up in nice suits and all.

  went to a door where a bearded chubby gay daddy was drooling over me. He asked us in, the (I now know) gay partner with me said yes, but I said I had to go...

  Who knows what would have unfolded if we had gone in. I am thinking "Dont ever wipe tears without gloves".

  The Insight books easily prove the date of jerusalems fall, simply by referencing the Kings going back from Belshazzar.

  They cannot provide the names of even one missing king.

  There is a lot of obfuscation around the reign of nebuchadnezzar, regnal v accession years, but they know they have successfully inculcated inability to think, ignorance and gullibility in the sheeples, so they can never crawl through the tangled web they put in those volumes. They cleverly removed passages in the Aid book that could give clues to their deception, with regard to Nineveh and the fall of Tyre.

  I just got sick of their increasingly strident screaming "Listen obey or die"

  How do JWs explain Egyptian society and culture surviving the flood?

  by BU2B in

  1. social
  2. current

  ok this is something have been wondering.

  has anyone heard any explanation from jws as to how egypt, which even the wt admits existed 4600 years ago, was eliminated by a global flood but resumed a few short years later with the same culture, language etc.

  the pyramids are older than the wt date for the flood.

  Anonymous -

  You are sooo right on the question thingie.

  There was a Question Box in a Kingdumb Misery a while back that forbade asking any question that the Gibberin Buddies had not already asked and dealt with themselves in the litterature.

  Asking too many questions always brings you under suspicion in any police state.

  Apogno - the Society has always said NOTHING on old light they hope the sheeples will forget. It doesnt mean they have replaced it with anything better.

  For my part, having considered the science and history over many years, I cannot worship a "god" who will murder me because I know that what 8 popes in Crooklyn are saying is TRUE TRUE TRUE is actually LIES

  They are not concerned that a MINOR is a "willing " participant??

  WTF?

  The courts have long rejected the defence that a youngster below age of consent was "gagging" for it.

  If you do it with a minor it is a crime - no matter how much you were begged or coerced. CRIME - therefore, like murder, it should be reported!

  There is one case on Silentlambs.org, where a little girl was molested, and the elders actually wanted to know if she had "led him on." (Obviously the little slut was gagging for it)

  But then the infamous "Murder Letter" to a Florida congo shows that in Witchtower la la Land even taking a life can be hushed up.

  Also - bear in mind that if a molestor moves to another congo, the Beth Hell decides whether or not he is a "known" child molestor ("predator"), and decides whether the elduhs should tell the next congregation or NOT(!!) So they have it in their hands to protect the children of oblivious parents at another kingdumb hell or NOT.

  Sorry - I amend my criticism somewhat - paragraph 13 says the elders should meet with the parents of minor children and warn them of the danger. This never happened before.

  The annual report has always said "Memorial PARTAKERS" worldwide, as they have always said not everybody who thinks they are annointed actually are.
