Latest on Otuo v Jonathan David Morely & Watchtower Bible and Tract Society + Otuo v Watchtower Bible & Tract Society
by Adwoa Kromo ina month ago someone inquired about where the case against watchtower in otuo v watchtower was at currently.
firstly the claimant has brought two separate claims against the watchtower .
case 1 relates to a suit in slander premised on the words , "frank otuo is no longer a jehovah witness".

It turns out he's involved in doing a special research project and the Christian Congregation of JW's wants to know us better.
In order for the broadcasting to address issues more meaningful for families, they want to know the demographic make up of the congregations.
He spoke with the secretary about young single publishers and couples 20-35 y.o. How are they employed. Do they own a home or do they rent. They want to know how many couples have young children. How many teenagers and 18-25 y.o.'s male and female are there. Also what is the racial mix in the congregation.
[barf]This is just another example of how "the slave" cares for the congregations. [/barf]

Challenging JWs at Cult Carts
by cofty inif i have time i always talk to jws when i see a cult cart.. they are in a public forum promoting a harmful ideology therefore they are fair game.
having said that, the individual jws on the trolley are not the enemy so i think it's better to keep it as friendly and non-confrontational as possible.. being realistic no jw is going to admit they are wrong because of something we say to them on the street but don't underestimate the long-term effect of doubts.. so what are your ideas for how to approach them?.
personally i like to use the literature on the cart.

The best challenge, in my opinion, is the flip-flopping. Either they had it right once and changed to wrong then change to right, or they had it wrong and changed to right then changed to wrong again. Can't have both be right and wrong at the same time. Either the U.N. was bad or it wasn't. Why the Awake! articles praising the U.N. when they were members then giving up their NGO relationship once they were found out and exposed on the Guardian.
Hypocrisy will be the death of them, I feel. It's something that opened my eyes. The cross was a Christian symbol under Russell and then pagan under Rutherford, but the gospels point out, in the revised NWT, the "mark of the nails" on the hands, so more than one, and not at all as it's pictured on the magazines since the sign saying the phrase about King of the Jews was above Jesus' head not his hands.
Either they can call God, Our Father, and they're children of God, or they are just friends, in which case they can't call God their Father. Who does the Bible say is "our mother", our spiritual mother is the Jerusalem above not the WTB&TS.
There's a lot of these reasoning points that make one think.

Hushai: Theocratic Warfare on "Apostates"?
by Londo111 inthanks to wifibandit, i skimmed the convention outline here:http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5685332821409792/full-regional-convention-2016-outlines-leak-spanishi noticed this part:hushai showed that was loyal to the anointed appointed by jehovah.
return to jerusalem and skillfully pretended to be a friend of traitors.
proved to be wise when he gave them a tip he knew the lead to failure.it almost makes me wonder if they will attempt to implement this.

In my case it's already happened with a sniveling runt of a ministerial servant who asked me "what does Tee-tee-ay-tee-tee mean?"
I told him to just Google it, and he goes to his service group overseer saying I told him to visit an apostate site. Whatta real wanker!

This article is quite a revealing story of Prince's frisky practices:
http://www.people.com/article/snoop-doog-prince-taught-me-how-to-seduce-women
Reminiscing about his memories with the singer, Snoop recalled a basketball game where he and his wife were seated next to Prince and his date. "I was with Shante and he had this beautiful friend with him. I mean, she was hot. Even my wife was like, 'Damn, she is fine,'" the rapper told PEOPLE with a laugh. "But that was him! He always had one or two of the baddest chicks on his arm."
Prince also taught Snoop Dogg, who was performing a DJ set for Lime-A-Rita's Cinco Saturday, a thing or two about sex.
"He's the first one who told us and showed us what a ménage-à-trois was. We didn't know! We would see him with two women and, man, the things he did," he continued. "Sometimes he wouldn't even make love to a woman. He would make love to their mind, without even touching their body. I take a little bit of him wherever I go."
