  What would be a scientific description/explanation of what God is?

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  based upon descriptions in the bible and what is known scientifically so far, what would god actually be?

  lightning comes out of the throne.

  no man may see and live.

  What words has the WT redefined?

  by Splash in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  these days, virtually every public talk speaker thinks it's interesting and intellectual to include a dictionary definition of some word.

  often the word is in common use and needs no explanation, such as 'exercise', or 'knowledge', or whatever.. now contrast that to all of the words that the wt has it's own meaning for, and referencing a dictionary for the common understanding of it would be viewed unfavourably.. words like 'generation' or 'men' (as in jesus is mediator between god and 'men' - 1tim 2:5-6).. what words have the wt redefined that you know about?

  - i'd like to compile a list if possible.. splash.

  A speaker giving the public talk said that the word, "fellow" came from the root word for Nephilim which means "to cause to fall". He says the Nephilim caused others to fall, and so they were called "fellers" and so we get the word "fellow".

  That's funny, because there was a really strange brother in our circuit who would take offense to being called "fella", and it was for just that reason. He would reply, in all seriousness: "I am not a Nephilim, and do not wish to be referred to as such".

  Because SCO/thegobbleygook11 has so much foolishness to spout one account cannot contain it all...

  Or he's been having so much fun fucking with us that one account cannot contain all of his enjoyment. This question can't possibly be for real.

  He redefined the word "Idiot"..

  He didn't redefine it, he just helped everyone gain a deeper understanding of the word.

  How Did "Shepherding Calls" Go For You?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  did you loath them?

  did you feel it was a "privilege" to have the elders care deeply about your spiritual well being?

  if you were an elder or ministerial servant, did you enjoy going to the homes of the sheep?.

  My biggest problem with them was always the timing. They always seem to be prompted by some special occasion, such as the Memorial, or the CO's visit. It made me feel like it was less about my well-being, and more about making their numbers look good.

  The biggest redefinition they've managed to pull off in the minds of the loyal:

  Truth

  Beat me to the punch. Especially when their 'truth' is in constant need of correction.

  IS Science Absolute Truth

  by seekchristonly in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if we have faith in science and scientific claims about the universe, origins of life etc.

  is that absolute truth.

  if so then if they declare that god exists with evidence then do all those who believe in science then believe in god or a creator.

  Your final WTF? Moment!

  by restrangled in

  it was a long time coming for me.....when i read about the extened generations, after being raised on1914 being the be all end all, and millions would never die....that was the end.

  i was part of the 1975 fiasco, the 6 month only truth book studies, suffered through a disifellowshipping and their version of a rewind.

  i finally am free and hope others can eventually look in instead of inside looking out!

  The final straw for me was during a CO's talk. He was relating an experience from a shepherding call. The brother he was visiting was strugging spiritually due to multiple personal problems he was enduring. He told the CO that he couldn't wait for the new system to get here so he didn't have to deal with all of the problems he was facing. The CO's response: "What makes you think you'll be in the new system?"

  I shouldn't have been stunned by the utter lack of empathy, but somehow I was. That was it for me.
