i was skimming the july 2016 wt study article and came across a paragraph indicating that, despite scriptural evidence, the governing body indeed feels that god's son now knows the exact day and hour of armageddon.
is this 'new light'?
from the second study article, page 14, pgh 4:.
"Thus, it is reasonable to conclude thatJesus now knows when Armageddon will occur.that we are absolute morons because every conclusion we have ever suggested has been proven wrong yet we keep doing it and you are morons for still listening to us"
Fixed that for them.

Next they will say Jesus evidently knowing the day and the hour, has channeled through the GB that the end will come before 2030. In the year 2031, "Evidently Jesus meant it would be in 2045", in 2045, "Evidently Jesus intended the whole time the end would be before 2060, but overeager 'Jehovah's Witnesses' (not not the GB or anybody of power), had said sooner. And round and round it spins, each meeting emphasizing obeying the GB and how they are the truth!
the anti gay video that watchtower recently produced has now had over 1,000,000 views.
of those who selected to like or dislike the video, over 92% disliked it.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnk52bu92oe.
The anti-vaxxer dad wasn't jailed because of not giving vaccinations, but because when his son was so ill he couldn't move and advised by others he may have meningitius, he still didn't take him to the hospital.
<insert sarcasm> Somebody needs to fill in tight pants Tony on the gay agenda that overtook the society in Rutherford's time to have all men shave their beards so as to be more feminine. He is going on about tight pants but he still shaves his face. Once he catches up, then beards and baggy pants will be mandatory.
i recently came across a female youtuber called "bridget azaz".
she has made a number of youtubes recording discussions that she has had with a number of jws.
she does an excellant job and i thought i would make mention of her here.there appears to be another youtube site that either she or someone else has created with a couple of her interviews which have been touched up from the originals on her 'bridget azaz' site.this is one of them and i think you will enjoy it.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkescwpafmu&feature=em-subs_digest.

is it wrong to change your religion or abandon beliefs you were once taught?.
let this article help you decide.... http://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/102009251.
clearly, no one should be shunned, or mistreated if they discover facts about their former faith....
Although the Bible makes a clear distinction between true and false teachings, God allows each person the freedom to choose how he or she will respond. (Deuteronomy 30:19, 20) No one should be forced to worship in a way that he finds unacceptable or be made to choose between his beliefs and his family. Does study of the Bible lead to family breakup? No. In fact, the Bible encourages a husband and wife who practice different religions to remain together as a family.—1 Corinthians 7:12, 13.
This only applies to 'other' religions of coarse. Don't you love Satan's, I mean the GB's, concluding spindoctoring phrase about breaking up families. Even though this is geared towards those who are of other faiths who have heard that joining JW's means no more associating with non jw relatives, no holidays, or shunning those who leave, they say no we don't break up familes, if 2 are married they are to remain married. The snake like GB know full well they are being deceptive.
this is what happened.
i had a sore tendon in my wrist.
i could work with it, but nevertheless the pain was there.
She needed a picture of you? If you were physically there why did she need a picture of you?
If she does this as a job, what is the name or title of that profession?
hello, i'm ame and after such heartwarming feedback last time from my other topic sharing my current situation, i felt the urge to just share an experience of mine that accrued a few weeks ago.. i was at mcdonalds with my mother and little brother, eating our food and in the background was the news playing on the tvs they had in the dining area.
and what were they talking about on the news?.
gun control.. now, i love the news.
Sorry, you be a little bit wrong I think:
Sweden rapes 3rd in the world for rape, more then twice as much as USA. It's on that link you showed as well. Though USA is higher in other crime.
i created a new account since i didn't want anybody to be able to trace this back to me based on my other posts.
i was an international delegate at the special convention in helsinki.
i am an awake pioneer.
All her classmates stopped talking to her (out of nowhere) and she was treated as if she didn't exist!
I wonder if a dfed or ex jw went to her school as well, somebody she may have been shunning. And they told the classmates about it, so they all decided to give her a taste of what she is doing herself?
hello everyone, it's been quite a while since i was last on this forum.
originally i was under a different user name, but lost all that information when i moved to a different state.
anyways, i had left the jws back in 2001, after being raised up in it most of my childhood life.
If the JW's don't like it, they can leave. I absolutely would not follow their rules. Either don't go or stay the entire time.
