JW Governing Body more like the Sanhedrin
by yadda yadda 2 inthought this was interesting from a website i happened upon:.
* as has been pointed out many times on this site, there was no governing body among the early christians.
today's governing body of jehovah's witnesses is more closely modeled on the jewish sanhedrin.

I think the Governing Body would take this as a compliment.

Are you artistic? Why not spend the remaining last days of this system in the preaching work?
Are your grades good enough to get you into college? Why not use those smarts to teach others the truth about our God Jehovah?
Do you like to dance? You should knock on doors instead. Sing? Forget about it. Pioneer!
Every dream you've ever had should be seen for what it is- a dream! Who wants to live in a dream world?
The reality that Christ has been enthroned since 1914 should move all of us to do more, more, more!
Remember... in The New System you'll be able to sing, dance, draw, play piano, and pet all the animals you want! You have Forever!
And there's a life story for all of these forgotten dreams in the bound volumes of the Awake! magazine. How happifying indeed!

A question for Christians
by paul from cleveland injesus said to 'go your way and sin no more' and the bible also says not to 'use the grace of god as an excuse to sin'.
however the bible also says that 'all sin and fall short of the glory of god'.
this means that we can only partially obey the commandment to be sinless.

Paul if your "friend" doesn't leave that thing alone he's going straight to hell! And blind as well!

Apparently Rutherford himself had only half a brain... more than I would have given him credit for!

Bye Bye Conan
by startingover infor years i watched the tonight show with johnny.
he had a formula that worked.
he could be funny and serious, but he needed a sidekick announcer with a hearty laugh and a musician with flair to complete the package.

This is a good thread... for me to poop on!
Props to Loon! Some people don't find humor in a masturbating bear, some people do. Different strokes for different folks.

Jehovah's Witnesses - Trained to Argue
by AllTimeJeff inalthough a cult, jehovah's witnesses should not be underestimated as to their smarts.
sometimes, exiting jw's, due to indoctrination, feel a lot of guilt for leaving.
of course, the governing body wouldn't have it any other way.. upon leaving, many for the first time feel a freedom to express themselves, which is as it should be.

My parents used to tell I should have been a lawyer, I could argue anything. Looking back, I think it was the JW training that made me that way.
