  i'm new to the forum.

  i've been lurking for some time, since i was "disconnected" by my husband, "tooktheredpill".

  i'm a 3rd generation witness, and still inside of the borg, because all my family is inside.

  Well done for making it out of the mind control, Annointeds Daughter. And well done tooktheredpill. It's so great that your marriage won't be destroyed by the WTS.
  
  Go easy on your family. Asking for their "help" with queries rather than showing facts is the way to go.

  The name "Jehovah's Witnesses" is NOT scriptural!

  by Nathan Natas in

  2. beliefs

  it is not infrequently that jehovah's witnesses make the statement that the name of their organization is "scriptural.

  tony wills, in his book "a people for his name" makes an interesting point about the misrepresentation of that name as "scriptural" and the appropriateness of this name-change by the impostor "bible scholar" rutherford -.

  [rutherford] showed the need of a new name by such texts as the following:.

  GB Anthony Morris 2007 DC Talk DESPERATE PLEADINGS

  by doinmypart in

  gb anthony morris gave the final talk on friday's 2007 follow the christ dc.

  in the talk he gives reasons for the r&f to trust the fds specifically the gb.. the talk is nauseating, but shows how desperate the gb has become.

  they're losing control of the r&f and they know it.. jwd member booby originally posted this speech on the "gb solidifies ownership" thread.

  after having posted on another thread, i have just remembered that a recent koolaid edition study said (words to this effect).

  Can't say I remember enjoying reading any of it, though I may have done when younger. Going through the Evolution/Creation book was probably alright at the time. Silly evolution - that'll never catch on.
