BBC Radio 5 Live recording and transcript

by IT Support in

thanks for your call, peter.

should a doctor be able to override a patients wishes?.

lets take just one more call before we let you go.

I am sure if someone like Richard had been more prepaired to counter mr Reids BS, yeah, it might have been very interesting to hear Mr Reid being pinned down. However, I did not think of the sighs to be that bad. Don't you think they came at the right spot and perfectly marked the utter stupidity of mr Reids words? I feel that the program did not reflect positively on JW doctrine.

As I said, my friend mentioned this tragedy to me the other day. Actually he was shocked and to sum it up: it is hardly justifyable, to say the least. It is foolish, How can the husband ever live with himself. Allright, he can fool himself by convincing himself that he did what God had required of him. But deep in the core of his heart.....I am sure there will remain a little voice saying: You should 've done differently. This is your fault.

My wife still is a serious steady going little JW and I seriously have to discuss this issue with her, I think. Thanks again for your efforts IT Support.

Cheers

This WT article makes me mad.... this is evil

by dawg in

it's bad enought that young people in the wt have to sell magizines, risk shunning when they find out the truth about the gb... but this article really makes me laugh and angry at the same time.

the part that made me the maddest was when the father said he "conquered" the habit, lying bastard!

2. Avoid being alone as much as possible. Find good company and stay in this good company.
3. If you are associated with other persons having this same problem, YOU MUST BREAK OFF THEIR FRIENDSHIP. Never associate with other people having the same weakness.

This mormon stuff is even better. You find company and ask:

do you gallop the maggot?

Excuse me?

Are you a wanker?

You deserve a good spanking, boy!

No, I mean, I have an issue with it and if you have an issue with it too, then , yes, I can't stay here for the fear of galloping off together.

Are you nuts?

No, a mormon.

Jehovah's Witnesses Are An Illogical People & They Should Be Embarrassed!

by minimus in

jw
friends

question a witness in a very logical manner about their view of blood transfusions and blood fractions and see what you'll get.. ask a witness where in the bible it states that you can't talk to a disfellowshipped family member unless he or she lived in your home.. ask a witness why they need 2 witnesses to establish that a child has been molested but they don't need 2 witnesses to establish that a spouse has been unfaithful and that the accuser may now be free to "scripturally" remarry.. have a jehovah's witness prove to you that filling out a service report is necessary for a christian to have god's approval.. can you think of other proofs that the witness religion is totally illogical??

?.

Borgia

Ask them about the universal issues:

Before God confused the languages people enjoyed one government, one language without any problems. Since people have become divided over many issues. Who brought the great divide? God. Why? Because he did not want humans to get to that point again otherwise they would be able to reach any goal they set out to reach. Who said God was jeolous......

Question: If this is to be accepted as a genuine part of history that has been contained in Gods inerrant word, what remains of the question: Can people succesfully rule thermselves without God? (answer: nothing: that question has already been answered by the good Lord himself in Gen 11 and it seems the FDS has missed out on that one. Can they? No they cannot because God prevented that from happening). What I got were blanc stares and one even said: "let's try to find what the slave says about this subject". ......

Wow, it just clicked. I'm agnostic!

by marmot in

i honestly don't think i've ever been this happy in my life.

of course, i've got bipolar ii so i might just be edging on a bout of hypomania but i'm good at taking my med so this could very well be genuine!

i'm so excited at the new look on life this has given me.

Marmot,
I pleasant and breath inducing experience, is it not ? Welcome to the best part of your life!

Comments You Will Not Hear at the 8-26-07 WT Study (SIN-HOLY SPIRIT)

by WT Comments in

"every sort of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men," said jesus christ, "but the blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven.

" (1 john 5:16) but is it left to the one who has sinned seriously to determine whether he has committed "a sin that does incur death"?.

(psalm 51:11) however, if we are deeply grieved over a sin we have committed, it is very likely that we are truly repentant.

Borgia

I always enjoy reading your comments Blondie.

While being on the convention I picked up a signal about being apostate and the unforgivable sin. I thought I had not clearly heard it. Now it is, although a bit concealed, in print: refusing to accept spiritual light = sinning against holy spirit! Of course that has a bearing on all the flip flop doctrines!

How peculiar: using your own GOD-GIVEN-GREY-CELLS to construct, study hypothesize and conclude and differentiate from the WTS-BS = sinning against HS.

They have already set the stage back in 2005 when the new org back came to light. Now it looks as though it's time to enforce that. I have the feeling that we are going to have a lot of "fun" as of January first 2008.

by LiveLife in

jw
friends

almost entirely transcribed from the audio provided by fading away (thanks, fading away!!).

i couldn't bear to type out all of one experience, you'll have to listen.. the audio link: education talk from follow the christ dc.

the superiority of of being taught by jehovah.

Borgia

I noticed some mistakes in conjugation: we was; you was....

I can see how his education of, say up until 12th grade, has helped him to develop a clear sense of speech...

And I do not even want to go into his ability to think logically........How pretty a waste.....The Wt is getter better by the day....

Smiles and cheers

machiavellian a word that could have been invented for the borg leadership.

by edmond dantes in

jw
friends

i happened to come across the word machiavellian.heard it plenty of times but never really knew what it meant.it's an adjective and sums up the jw leadership like no other word.it means as follows ; .

elaborately cunning ; scheming, unscrupulous,deceitful, shrewd, crafty,wily,foxy, tricky,perfidious,nefarious,treacherous,sneaky .. well i guess that just about covers it.unless anyone can come up with anymore.. .

Borgia

Edmund,

quite an analogy! Held by Baron Danglars.....something to think about......it was misinformation that brought Danglars down.....

If you want to obtain a free copy or something, try "project gutenberg" or google books search for "the prince".
