this must have been mentioned before,but now reniaa is back it could be fun.. if jw's are even part way to the truth,and all other religions are false, then they must have a doctrine that is unique to them,given by holy spirit, but plainly taught in the bible,without resorting to fancifull exegesis and bouncing around from verse to verse out of context etc.. what is that doctrine?.

Earnest,
This is not what "God's Spirit Directed Org" claims is the basis,even today,I have not heard that claim being used before,and what had they changed in 1919 from their inception in the 1870's that showed this willingness to our Lord?

Besty,Ye of little faith! Didn't you see Thursdays day text comment? It stated there that EVIDENTLY Jesus chose them then,so there must be evidence,just don't hold your breath while it is forthcoming!

p.s thanks for keeping this thread on track.
the comments for this week's watchtower are already posted for your consideration.
i'm just getting back on the interwebs and wasn't prepared to consider last week's mish-mash of a "lesson" this week.
so, i'll at least put the text from last week out there for your consideration.
Thanks Billy,
Incisive stuff as usual from your good self,this will be helpfull to me in writing a letter to my Nephew,he is WT overseer in a nearby Congo. to the one I left.
I wish to explain to him that I have not left God,or his organization,just a publishing company based in NY.
I can now add ,what I think will challenge him in his view of matters,that "I have maintained my integrity"
Thanks for your work,and the clear definition.
Love

i really thought it was a stupid waste of time!
especially weekend mornings and holidays..
I did it for 56 years,I never felt really comfortable doing it, who does?
What I disagreed with strongly was calling at times that were almost provoking householders to tell you to "go forth and multiply",like Christmas Day or even straight after a Sunday morning meeting,when most people are just about to eat lunch.
That "Go forth......." bit reminds me of when a new Bro. I was "training" asked me "What do you reply if someone tells you t F**K Off?"
I said "I usually say thanks very much I like sex and travel" don't know if he ever used that or any of my other useful tips!

new delhi (reuters) - a hardline hindu organization, known for its opposition to "corrupting" western food imports, is planning to launch a new soft drink made from cow's urine, often seen as sacred in parts of india.. the rashtriya swayamsevak sangh (rss), or national volunteer corps, said the bovine beverage is undergoing laboratory tests for the next 2 to 3 months but did not give a specific date for its commercial release.. the flavor is not yet known, but the rss said the liquid produced by hinduism's revered holy cows is being mixed with products such as aloe vera and gooseberry to fight diseases such as diabetes and cancer.. many hindus consider cow urine to have medicinal properties and it is often drunk in religious festivals.. the organization, which aims to transform india's secular society and establish the supremacy of a hindu majority, said it had not decided on a name or a price for the drink.. "cow urine offers a cure for around 70 to 80 incurable diseases like diabetes.
all are curable by cow urine," om prakash, the head of the rss cow protection department, told reuters by phone.. prakash, who is based in hardwar, one of four holy hindu cities on the river ganges where the world's largest religious gathering takes place, said the product will be sold nationwide but did not rule out international success.. "it is useful for the whole country and the world as well.
I was told American beer tasted like piss for years (better now though?) so perhaps the States is a good potential market

kool aid man has been having technical difficulties posting here and on jws, and has requested me to post this on his behalf:.
planning for the mass exodus!
it's estimated that over two and a half million jehovah's witnesses no longer believe what the watchtower is teaching them.
I think the only thing that would bring about a mass exodus is if the WT came out with a policy of no recriminations if people left through diffrence in belief or no belief,no DAing or DFing for such folk.
And that just aint NEVER gonna happen!

ps here in the UK it is not easy to hear the program,so anyone who has the time to post the gist of what it says will be considered a DIAMOND!

need to learn spanish and do not want to start attending spanish congo!!!!
!...............................oompa.
Is there a DVD for WT speak,I find the longer I'm away the harder it gets to remember the lingo,and what it really means,i.e
"Love amongst yourselves" = Love the GB more,even rat on family members.
Jesus is the Saviour = Follow the FDS(GB)

At the risk of hi-jacking my own thread, Earnest? Saving that crowd or mixed company? didn't all of that generation,apart from a priviledged few like Joshua,PERISH in the wilderness.I think you need to find another analogy,and read Bestys and Leavings comments.
