I think they are pretty much spitting images of each other, both the WT and the Bible, the WT just reiterrates what the bible says

What's more to blame- the WT or the bible?
by keyser soze inaren't they both just differen't variations of the same lie?
the only difference is the scale on which their impact on humanity is measured.
that, and the fact that the bible can exist without the wt, but not vice versa.. but at the end of the day, what's the difference between claiming to be the inspired word of god, or the one true religion?

no elder is above courtesy. yeah, just be polite, agreeable, they owe you nothing. just screen all of your incoming calls, never answer your door for anyone

OMG the Watchtower IS toast!
by kneehighmiah inthe waters are drying up!
a congregation of 110+ publishers will be contributing only $200 a month to the society in the new kingdom hall construction arrangement.
that's less than $2 a publisher!

I just wanted to share a comment regarding the new song book released a few years ago. Whoever drew up the lyrics for this book knew what they were doing. It is a known fact that music is very powerful, by making use of repititive words or phrases, it has a powerful effect on the one singing the lyrics.
Music is a very powerful tool. For example, the word obey, in that song that goes always ready to obey, or whatever. That conditions the mind to do what the person is singing. I agree with what someone else said recently, is just do not sing the lyrics, if you are at the KH during the melodies.

pre-emptive shunning seems to be the norm too, missing a few meetings here and there, dubs will black list you and snub you in public
