Nothing clever about it. I hope you say that tongue in cheek. They used to give different explanations, which if you disagreed with or did not or even struggled with accepting, classified you as rebellious at the least and headed for destruction at harmageddon at worst. I do not think you can be dumb asses and still be clever. But thats just me.

Exactly. They feel if they demonize the internet using porn as the scapegoat, many will not go near the internet. It is the same with many things. Demonize apostate literature and they block a channel to learn about some stuff that is at least embarrassing and at worst damning. And the double standard of using the technology that the internet provides for their purposes as in download of mags, and access to the public with their crappola, the benefits for them keeping close to the congregations more efficiently etc. is no different than what they do with many "worldly" provisions. Brothers should not go to worldly courts and sue one another no matter what, but they have more lawyers at bethel than spiritual leaders. Give them the slightest provacation, Like a website of legal snippets of their own damning crappola and they will sue your ass off.
Nice bunch a fellas at the Papal throne. Oops, meant to say bethel home.
And one other thing that is kinda humerous in all this. As with so much of there efforts, we see the problems that their silliness causes themselves. I think that to some extent all this two stepping they must do must be frustrating also for them. They are trying to mitigate damage to themselves caused by the same things (in this case the internet) that they want to exploit for their own benefit. Well I guess that is just one of the downsides of bein hypocrites.

Yes folks, it all comes down as per the info that Blondie has cited. However and at the same time it should never be construed that Jehobar witnesses have to follow or abide by, or are in any way controlled by rules. In no way are they bound by rules from the gubberning body of Jehobars witlesses.
Aren't they just the group or organization that can "prove" that they are the true religion on earth today BY THE LOVE THAT THEY SHOW

Does the Governing Body say only apostates will die at Armageddon?

if they persist in this course, they will be among those who perish during the great tribulation.----------------------------------------------------------------------------"only jehovah's witnesses, those of the anointed remnant and the "great crowd," as a united organization under the protection of the supreme organizer, have any scriptural hope of surviving the impending end of this doomed system dominated by satan the devil.

The Finger - Yes indeed. That is the (clear) explanation of things. Of course that is from a source that could be "old light". And herein lies (I think anyway) the great dilemma. The wt has been forced to find words to fill many books, watchtowers, and others crapola. If and only if they were inspired writers could it all be coherent and make any sense. They (even at their own admission) are not. Rather they are a group of wt trained writers given assignments to research (mainly using other wt stuff) and write articles for said publications. Being simple mortals like the rest of humankind what they produce is a jumbled mass of words and articles trying in desperation to control the masses. It is not working.

*** Text for May-01-10 ***
Saturday, May 1
Put a mark on the foreheads of the men that are sighing and groaning over all the detestable things that are being done.-Ezek. 9:4.
Following that marking work, six men with slaughtering weapons are commanded to execute all those who do not have the mark. (Ezek. 9:1-6) Ezekiel's vision highlights one reason why our ongoing search for people who are "sighing and groaning" is so urgent. It involves lives. Soon, Jehovah's heavenly executional forces, represented by the six men with weapons, will destroy those who do not have the symbolic mark. Concerning that coming judgment, the apostle Paul wrote that the Lord Jesus, accompanied by "his powerful angels," will bring "vengeance upon those who do not know God and those who do not obey the good news about our Lord Jesus." (2 Thess. 1:7, 8) Notice that people will be judged on the basis of their response to the good news. Hence, the proclamation of God's message must continue unabated right to the end.-Rev. 14:6, 7. w08 7/15 1:10, 12Now if one of the jw's felt the huge burden this places on them, (lives are at stake) it becomes even more onerous when taking into consideration that the efforts put forth in the ministry for the purpose of saving lives (their own in the sense of avoiding bloodguilt) is not even the most important purpose of that ministry or more properly stated that "door to door preaching".
*** w08 7/15 p. 6 par. 14 The House-to-House Ministry-Why Important Now? ***
As important as the preservation of human life is, there is a far greater reason for preaching from house to house. In the prophecy recorded at Malachi 1:11, Jehovah declares: "From the sun's rising even to its setting my name will be great among the nations, and . . . a presentation will be made to my name, even a clean gift; because my name will be great among the nations." In fulfillment of this prophecy, Jehovah's dedicated servants are publicly praising his name in all the earth as they humbly carry out their ministry. (Ps. 109:30; Matt. 24:14) Rendering "a sacrifice of praise" to Jehovah is our foremost reason for preaching publicly and from house to house.-Heb. 13:15 -

Yes. Yes indeed. I love the line "Moreover, Jesus said that we should not be judging one another". But should they not add a big BUT STAY TUNED TO OUR 15TH WT AS WE CONTINUE TO DO JUST THAT. It is just so sad that they can't follow their own counsel. They do the same with Armaggedon. We (meaning you) should just live each day making every effort to please Jehovah (which if you succeed will make you happy) not concerning ourselves/yourselves with the impending destruction. But then THEY continue emphasizing just what their counsel says not to do in an effort to scare the r&f to obey.

But of course there was no wifey Maria. And for that matter no wifey for Rutherford either IF one were to go by the latest DVD. Wonder why they left that small detail out?

I loved that. The whole analogy they try to transfer to themselves is just so blatant. The one thought I might add is the way that they almost bully the flock to not think of the time reward aspect, live to please Jehovah and not think about what is in it for them. But at the same time do the exact opposite in almost everything they approve for inclusion in thier publications. And I say approve rather than saying write because I don't think that they have the smarts for the writing part. When I read a post like yours or some others on this board, the logic stands out as something they cannot produce.
