  When did WT lose the spirit?

  by Smiles in

  2. beliefs

  at what time would you say that the watch tower schema lost the spirit?.

  like the ancient nation of israel which struggled maintaining divine blessing due to a long series of grave errors that eventually culminated in definitive loss... how and when did watch tower lose the spirit?.

  can we pinpoint a time or event?.

  Please do not reply with 'JWs never had the spirit'

  Why on earth not? Your fallacy: begging the question.

  csa victims need our support, not vindictiveness.

  in that vein, lord farquaad has these kind words for shelly, aka “bcg”.

  false dilemma logical fallacy.

  Using the same logic, how do we even know they were referring to Evans?

  Indeed, Evans' own response was conditional: "If you include me in this vague rebuke...", though because there was purportedly some related dispute between the same parties on Reddit, his assumption would be more warranted than yours. It does seem to be the direct references to YouTube and Patreon that raised his ire in the little Twitter spat (Twitter being the highly collegiate platform that it is ). He could have made his response more clear and that is a matter for him, but his ambiguity doesn't justify you pouring fuel on the fire.

  I feel it’s important for people to at least know what kind of man you are defending.

  And there's the problem. You still imagine I'm 'defending' someone. Your specific accusation was unfounded, and that it is all. But the underlying problem is the us-versus-them mentality that thrives so much within the 'ex-JW community', of which Evans and BCG both evidently share some guilt. That doesn't make either of them 'evil', it's just a product of their experiences. And unrelated to your claim that Evans directed his "screw you" comment at Shelly.

  Diogenesister:

  I can actually verify this and give some context.

  I don't doubt there was some wholly unproductive separate exchange on Reddit. But unless Evans unambiguously said "screw you" to Shelly on Reddit, it lends no credence to the claim that the comment on Twitter was directed at Shelly rather than Champion.

  You seem to think that everyone who has a distaste for that man and his methods is being unreasonable.

  Nope. That statement is purely your mind's own invention. I commented on your response to one Twitter comment. I don't really care about some separate Reddit exchange, which does not confirm to whom Evans was saying "screw you" on Twitter. But the really apparent thing is how readily you attack someone who doesn't fully endorse your hatred of Evans.

  Patreon livestream? What are you on about? You seem to imagine that anyone who doesn't agree with you about Evans must therefore support him financially and hang on his every word. This is simply your own fantasy, projecting your dislike of the person on to my ambivalent interpretation of a Twitter comment.

  Back in reality, it just seems that Evans' "screw you" comment was directed at Champion, rather than BCG as claimed in your thread title.

  Well if it's on Reddit...

  Okay, you don't like Evans and therefore anyone who doesn't think Evans is Satan is stupid.

  I guess we found that misidentified false dilemma from your initial comment.

  Because Evans’ word on the matter is final and unimpeachable. And he has such a sterling reputation for kind conduct towards people who might disagree with him, as Shelly has done in the past. Got it.

  I see you still maintain that good old JW black-and-white thinking. So of course if Evans might not be completely evil in one particular Twitter comment that obviously means the only alternative is that he's perfect.

  Las Malvinas son Argentinas:

  Shelly is in the thread too. Nothing misleading about it. Both gave criticisms about exJW activists. If it were directed at Dwayne then why didn’t he single him out by name?

  Only Dwayne specifically mentioned YouTube, Patreon etc - Evans' platform - and it's that comment that seems to have elicited Evans' response. In any case, your own speculation is of no more value than mine, except that mine isn't potentially libelous. In the absence of clarification from Evans, your accusation is misleading.

  Misleading thread using image out of context.

  Evans' "screw you" comment appears to be directed at Champion rather than BCG.
