Have given the same presentation for many years. I just reel off the main points. Then go back and explain the main points. Questions with short answers I deal with as I go. Questions with longer answers I deal with at the end of the presentation.

Did Splane use the words "pay grade" as a word picture or illustration?

I'm asking this so I can understand better.
I'm reading this post as "Splane thinks that the parents of disfellowshipped or inactive children cannot teach them, because Splane thinks that these parents are not "spiritually qualified"/not knowledgeable enough about "spiritual matters."
Have I read the OP the right way?

I usually go to the financial and legal threads first when I read here. This thread caught my eye, so I've been following it for a while. I wanted to see what arguments would be used, on both sides.
I'd follow it more easily if the thread flowed a bit better.

ARC - where to start?
by thereishope ini'm hoping for help in finding a starting point, somewhere to direct my husband.
i brought up a little bit about the arc spoken of so widely here on the forum.
i just gave him a bit of a hint a few days ago, and he wanted to hear nothing of it - the old you can't believe everything you read.

Just a side point - JW are not the only organisation being investigated. Other churches are being investigated, too. One of them is the Catholic church. So if a JW accepts the investigation into the Catholic church as being true, then they would have to consider the investigation of the JW organisation in the same light. The same legal team is responsible for investigating all churches.
I say this because your husband might raise the objection that the JW are being singled out. That is not the case.

If An Organization Really Believed It Had the Truth...
by xjwsrock in....it would not be scared of critics.
actually they would naturally take an offensive stance, wouldn't they?
they would welcome debate... even encourage it.

I was criticised for watching the Dateline program about WT child abuse and the two witness rule. I was told that this was "apostate lies." Years later, Geoffrey Jackson tells the ARC the same thing about the two witness rule. Yet he is supposed to be a member of the GB.

I have a plan....
by DATA-DOG inwith all of the bat-shit crazy propaganda of late, i'm considering talking to my wife about the cult.
we have had zero religious discussions for two years.
the last discussion ended with ,"you have no beliefs, no personal beliefs, because you change your "beliefs" when the wtbts writes an article.

Is it Time to Declare that The Great Tribulation Has Started ?
by OnTheWayOut ini don't really engage in doctrinal discussions about jw's anymore.
they seem to say some pretty crazy stuff.
but i have read some threads discussing doctrinal changes and how watchtower is really out of ideas and money at the same time.

This sounds almost like the GB is going to make a call out to all Borg worshippers to hand over their assets to the Borg, selling property, cars, life insurance, etc
Anyone else has got this feeling?
The sheeple are being told to be loyal no matter what even if instructions may not seem reasonable from a human standpoint!?? - GefangeneYep

Don't agree with the name calling and criticism levelled at Christian and Katja.
If I need a dose of judgmentalism or pettiness, I can get that at the hall.
I like watching their videos and hope that they continue to make more. It's more interesting listening to them rather then having to listen to a GB member drone on.

My cat died suddenly!
by Fisherman ini did not realize that they were symptoms that something was wrong with my cat -but i did notice that my cat was breathing a little differently for a period of about a few days.
i also noticed prior and after to that, that on occasion, my cat would cry at the litter box, but that was a very seldom event.. anyway, about a week ago i noticed the symptom that my very loved cat was breathing heavy.
so i called a taxi and i was going to rush him to emergency room for cats.
