  Misuse of "impaled"

  by RebelWife in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the jw use of this word gets my knickers in a right twist!

  when someone is impaled, it means he is run through with something.

  the thing he is run through with is the thing he is impaled on or by.

  The JW use of this word gets my knickers in a right twist! When someone is impaled, it means he is run through with something. The thing he is run through with is the thing he is impaled on or by. Take a butterfly collection -- the butterflies are not impaled on the board; they are impaled on the pin. If Jesus had been impaled on a stake, he would have had the stake THROUGH him. The other thing that really gets me about this is that I don't see how a whole group of wordsmiths could have made a mistake like this. It had to be intentional.

  watch 61 p.766-767 question; "how can a girl guard against temptation in this sex-crazy world.

  ...in answer to this question, we can learn about nature and sex from the bovine family of mammals, both wild and tame.

  who's fault is it?

  by bigdreaux in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  when it comes to the society, are they to blame for the control they use upon the members, or is it the peoples fault?

  should we blame the society for tricking people?

  or is it the people that let themselves be tricked?

  I don't think it's the members. We all have our weaknesses that can be exploited by nasty people/groups. I guess we could avoid that, but we shouldn't have to be suspicious of everybody and everything all the time. Just my two cents.

  Doing obesience to Jesus? - dialog with JW lady

  by tfjw in

  1. jw

  however, we show the proper regard for gods only-begotten son by rendering our worship to god through and in the name of jesus christ.

  " (acts 7:59, new world translation).

  jw: no, only almighty god, whose name is jehovah, is to be worshipped.

  if Jehovah is the one true god, and Jesus is "a god" then Jesus must be a false god

  I don't understand why this is such a difficult concept, but it blows my husband's mind. Can't get much simpler. I know, I know, I know, but it's so frustrating.

  Where's The Money & Why the Secrecy?

  by Outaservice in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  red flags should go up when any organization you are associated with and supporting is not open about it's money.

  there are institutions that track the various charities and religious organizations so that people can determine which ones are honest about their finances.. how does the watchtower society fare in this regard?

  do you know, or have you ever known, how much they take in, or how much money they have, or even what they do with it totally?

  If it's a cell phone that has a business tied to it, it may show up on whitepages.com. My husband's business # is just a personal cell phone & it showed up. Free.

  Is it The Truth? Does this answer work?

  by jwfacts in

  2. beliefs

  i know that a jw that wants to believe in the wts will not listen to any form of logic or reason.

  however, could the following reasoning reach the thinking ability of a few jehovah's witnesses?.

  "This is explained with "new light", that slowly has gotten brighter. However - some of the things JWs and Bible Students used to do and teach, are today deemed as having pagan roots. In other words, they were still "worshiping false gods" at one point (celebrating Christmas for instance). So why did Jehovah let this go on for so long?" Maybe he just didn't know about the pagan roots and had to rely on the JWs to determine what was pagan. Ya think?
