What was he teaching that was wrong and what is he now teaching?
I assume he's teaching the "correct" understanding now. I don't think he elaborated. TBH I wasn't really paying all that much attention (never do, these days).

Awkward moment at the WT study today
by FadeToBlack inwhen we got to paragraphs 10,11 with the reference to the box at the top of the page - is your teaching up-to-date?
the conductor asked for an explanation of what the current 'bible truth' was.
for the first one, 'this generation (matt 24:34) absolutely nobody raised their hand!

Our COBE is the WT conductor. Bet he was quite mortified when another elder, in his comment, confessed that he had mistakenly been teaching people wrong about the sheep and goats one until very recently.

Do you believe Jehovah enjoys watching people suffer and why would you want to worship him?
by booker-t ini have to admit i never really thought about this question until one of my classmates challenged me with this very question.
she made an excellant point and i have to admit i am asking myself the same question does jehovah enjoy watching people suffer.
the case she brought up was the flood story.

Why, I do believe it's time for my favorite quote:
“The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it, a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.” - Richard Dawkins

by free2beme ini know it is easy to go there, on this board, and blame the jehovah's witnesses.
but being a dad, i can tell you that being a teenage girl in this day in age is hard.
add to that, having such a famous father in your past with such strange stories attached to him.

He was not a good man, at all.
Wow! Judgemental much? He was found not guilty (so calling him a "pedo", is, quite frankly, libel) and I and a lot of others believe he was not guilty. That man went through a lot of hell that folks like you and I will never know. His life would have probably broken you before you were half his age. I'm disgusted that the two of you would use this poor girl's tragedy as an oppertunity to bash her father, who was a remarkable man in his own right.

Looooooooooong Prayers...
by likeabird inlet's have a bit of a laugh.. .
who of you rolled your eyes when brother never ending prayers was called up to give the closing prayer?.
who of you then proceeded to tap your feet, fidget loudly or start doing balancing acts off the back of the chair in front of you while waiting for it to end?.

Lol, that's funny, Lois. That elder probably got his ears boxed later.
Reminds me of a convention I was at. The brother said the closing prayer but never said Amen. Everyone was just keeping their heads bowed in silence, for a minute or two until it got wierd. Some of us finally peaked, only to see the brother had left the stage. Finally, the brother comes back and just says "That's it." - truely odd.

It wouldn't surprise me if it played some role, though the poor girl has a lot of other crazyness in her life, too.
Your link had me worried she had died there for a second, there TTATT, as the link says "Commit" - but then I went to the article and it actually says "attempt", and it seems she is recovering. So that's good, at least.

Time for a quiz! Guess when this happened!
by likeabird inlet's enjoy yet another meeting-free tuesday night with a quick quiz.. .
here's your clue:.
in the space of ten years, this religious organization produced and distributed over 23 million publications.. .
-

Shador
That's only 5 years, Roberta.
Besides 23 mil in 10 years seems low for WBTS.
It's probably the Moonies or the Jesus Freaks or some such 60s thing.

So apparently I'm now a Secular Humanist
by Oubliette ini was doing some research on the subject of beliefs and belief systems when i came across an on-line survey/test that supposedly helps you determine which religion or philosophy is most like your current beliefs.

Hmmm.... then it looks like the closest x-ian one is Liberal Quakers. Bleh. I can't stand oatmeal (except in cookies).
