  so i'm working on another (fictional) book project and i need some historical help.

  i came into the borg in 1973, just as they were starting the new elder arrangement.

  i know that before that there was a presiding overseer who (as i understand it) ran the show.

  Can the GB be directed by Holy Spirit and at the same time be not inspired ?

  by Chook in

  yes god directs our writings but they're not inspired, so gods directions are staggered and overlapping , so the genuine innocent believing jw has a wonderful life of overlapping bullshit.

  so next time you meet a jw priest ask them what is the difference between being directed and inspired, then i promise you will hear first hand an example of overlapping bull..

  In view of the cost involved in producing printed publications, it is preferred that publishers make full use of electronic copies if possible.

  If Jehovah God was in "Human Form" with his Theocratic Nation on earth in todays climate he would be facing Human rights issues.

  where does one start :.

  he is guilty of genocide for the attempted and succesful ,killing off other nations not leaving man woman or child alive.. he is guilty of barbarism against women for not living up to his rules or regulations such as cutting off a womans hand for defending her husband in a brawl with another man.. he is guilty of condemning the whole human race for the misdemeanor of the first human pair for eating a fruit he said not to eat ?

  a bit over the top dont you think ?.

  I suspect he has simply gone through a learning curve as all of us humans.

  Oh wait. We are talking about an omniscient and omnipotent creator of the universe? Silly me.

  A drastic medical view

  by Fatfreek in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  when mom and dad and i adopted watchtower teachings during the mid 50's, the most influential couple we knew were special pioneers by the names of raymond and doris bridgman.

  they were truly fine people in many senses, a bit younger than my folks, and very charismatic.

  the place was new bedford, massachusetts, u.s.a.. it wasn't long before you realized that the bridgmans ate differently than the rest of us.

  Baptized at a young age, homeschooled, and pioneered ...

  by Wild_Thing in

  2. friends

  and all of this by the time i was 14. i was the youngest person in my pioneer school.

  was anybody else in the trenches (to this degree) at such a young age?.

  i look back on it now and marvel at how isolated i was.
