  Do the Governing body know they are being dishonest?

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i wonder if anyone has any ideas on this.

  who, what is behind the wts.

  is it just men genuinely making mistakes but are sincerely trying to serve god?

  Why does the Watchtower feel it needs to justify...

  by B_Deserter in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  ...it's blood stance with medical reasons.

  they've put out countless articles and brochures on the subject based purely from a medical standpoint.

  i just scratch my head at this.

  Anybody out there an Agnostic mentally but a Believer at Heart? (like me)

  by Meeting Junkie No More in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  first off, i no longer believe the bible to be the inspired word of god.

  but with my heart i want to believe.

  i love the idea of an all-powerful deity that cares for me and the rest of humanity.

  Kids Still Get Whacked @ Armageddon. Current Light. (With Pix!)

  by Open mind in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if you've clicked around on other sites, you can find the troubling picture i grew up with from the old orange paradise lost book.

  a big old armageddon earthquake that is swallowing up people, churches, a bicycle, a dog!

  ) and of course, a little girl in a dress that is indelibly planted in my memory chips.

  Universal Issue of Sovereignty Does NOT Exist....Proof......

  by oompa in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we are taught that the $hit mankind has endured for thousands of years is because satan said something that could be construed to be bad about god, and so god said...."let's let mankind see if they are better off following satan and leading themselves, or following me.

  " now thousands of years later, this universal issue is still not settled...after all...the angles and demons are waiting with baited breath for the end result.. do you think that just because you were taught since youth that this "universal sovereignty issue" is real, it is?

  i have some real good biblical reasons this is not even an issue.............................................oompa.

  Faithful and Discrete Slave

  by Johnna in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  if it is true that the slave class is here to lead the organization, and their numbers on earth are still in the thousands, why is it only just a handful at the headqtrs that send out the spiritual food?

  i have known many "annointed" ones over my course of involvement and none of them were ever called on for their input, guidance, counsel, etc... much less to have a turn to lead the work in ny.

  aren't they all supposed to be doing the guidance work on the earth?

  Something That Used To Puzzle Me

  by snowbird in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  when reading the apostle paul's chastisement of the corinthians about their drunken, gluttonous demeanor during the memorial, i used to wonder how in the world could anyone possibly overeat on just the unleavened bread?

  and, i used to think that if anyone got drunk, it was because they drank too much wine on an empty stomach.

  after a careful reading, i came to the conclusion that this was an actual meal served in someone's home!

  How's this for twisted thinking

  by freedomfighter in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  many of us have most likely had to listen to a talk that has a statement like this - .

  " imagine when you are in the new system in a beautiful place, you will be able to look back and think ' wow!

  i had a good share in the preaching work and was part of fulfilling mat 24:14".

  What to do when your parents are toxic?

  by Paralipomenon in

  1. social
  2. family

  from reading people's stories and life experiences i thought i'd poll the members here for some advice.

  my inlaws are extremely toxic.

  i know, every person says that about their inlaws, but the way they treat their family is absolutely horrible.
