  Legal takeover and Dismantling of the WT Possible?

  by Pathofthorns in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the events of the last couple weeks with regard to the un scandal got me thinking that the time climate is increasingly right for the legal takeover and dismantling of the wt.. i know that is a crazy thought, but could it somehow be possible?

  now that the gb resigned from their posts, could a rutherford-style takeover happen?.

  the un scandal signifies utter betrayal of the membership.

  Nov. 8 Awake - Wife Beaters-Sick

  by MrMoe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i will let you all hang who ever the heck wrote this crap.

  november 8, 2001 awake page 9: some battered women may need to seek assistance from the authorities.

  at times, a point of crisis-such as intervention of the police-can cause an abusive man to see the seriousness of the action.. page 12: should the battered wife leave her husband?

  WT get away words:

  PERHAPS
  MAYBE
  COULD BE
  LIKELY
  APPEARS
  SEEMLY
  POSSIBLY
  ETC

  it is with these words the wt lays out the dogmas on so many issues
  so that when they need to change they can say

  WE DIDN'T SAY FOR SURE OR DEFINTELY ONLY maybe

  and you guys took it the rest of the way
  --------------------------------------------------------------------

  JT, my man YOU HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD!! It's something how they expect unequivocal loyalty to their dogmas and policies while CLOAKING them with legalistic verbiage that leaves them unaccountable when someone calls them out on it. That aspect of the WTBS has bugged the hell outta me for as long as I can remember.

  The Serpent Ate the Fruit

  by Black Man in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i remember in one of my bethel entrants school classes, the instructor commenting on the events that went down in genesis chapter 3 and commenting that one of the reasons why the serpent was so persuasive was because he "evidently" partook of the tree of the knowledge of good and bad.

  because he had taken such a course, he could persuasively convince eve to do the same.

  i can't remember what source material he used to support this assertion.

  And that's it was presented to me. The serpent partaking of the tree, seemingly gaining the ability to talk AND discerning what is good and bad and then presenting this offer to Eve of even GREATER ENLIGHTMENT that God did not want her to acquire. That supposedly is why the woman didn't find it so hard to believe that the snake was talking to her. The snake made it seem as if the "tree" had granted it the ability to converse and be enlightened.

  Paradise - I Think I'll Pass........

  by Black Man in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one thing that has always kinda ticked me off with the society depiction of paradise, is the completely bland, devoid of personality, stepford wives-ish look given to paradise pics in the publications over the years.

  peeps walkin' around smilin' for no reason, no attention given to a cultivation of technology, the arts, space exploration.

  there never seemed to be any point to paradise.

  And another thing that never computed was the supposed change back to speaking the original Hebrew language. WHY? If english was the dominant language used to re-establish christianity why change it?

  Also, the concept of death still puzzles in this environment. What happens in the case of a freak accident? You accidentally fall off a building or cliff or something. You wouldn't die from that?

  Memorial Experiences from Hell

  memorial.....the time of year where we meditate on the supposed significance of jesus' death and watch all types of crazy mufuckas come out of the woodwork.

  anyway, we had a new sister move into our territory and lo and behold claims she's of the anointed.

  she was all of 40 years old, 350 pounds, friendly, feels that the friends should treat her with special reverence "since she's one of christ's brothers" (wouldn't that be sisters?).
