What the...? that's some serious micromanagement by Paul, per thew WT says.
So, if these verse talk about women waiting their turn to talk, does this mean they can preach from the stage now? I thought they applied this verse as a proof not to let women take the stage.

ANOTHER DISHONEST QUOTE FROM CHRIST'S BROTHERS!
by DATA-DOG inthey " evidently " have not learned their lesson.
here we go.. wt march 15th 2013. honor jehovah's great name.

Thanks for explaining point (2). "Always check your sources" doesn't go well with the WT.

Thanks for this DATA!,
So, let me see if I'm correct: The WT says that Christendom's churches hold the view that we should not use the proper name of God, they say it's inappropiate,
But
the real quote says that the what is inappropiate is (1) the use of the made-up name "Jehovah".
But I don't understand the point (2) the use of any proper name for the one and only God, as though there were other gods from whom He had to be distinguished, was discontinued in Judaism before the Christian era and is entirely inappropriate for the universal faith of the Christian Church.
What is entirely inappropriate for the universal faith of the Christian Church? The use of the name "Jehovah", the use of God's name, or the discontinuation of the name by the Jews?
Thanks!

he was and still is one of the genuine ones, a real solid guy.

If I'm not mistaken, there was the green-cover Bible, and then the black Bible without the reference column in the middle of the page, and then the one currently in use.
Is somebody here that remembers the transition that the WT used with these Bibles? Did they show it off at conventions or just shipped them to the KH?
