What kind of errors in the Bible?
by TheWonderofYou inthe new testament specialist daniel wallace notes that although there are about 300,000 individual variations of the text of the new testament, this number is very misleading.
most of the differences are completely inconsequential--spelling errors, inverted phrases and the like.
a side by side comparison between the two main text families (the majority text and the modern critical text) shows agreement a full 98% of the time.[18].

GB Not Providing Food-Helpers Write Articles
by TakeOffTheCrown inwhy does the governing body depend on the helpers to write watchtower articles and the information in other publications?
why does the governing body not write these articles themselves?
they depend on the helpers to compose/write this information.

A few years ago they blustered about their editorial review process, something like 70 reviews of material before it goes to print. Its also been noted that at least three GB members sign off on material before it goes to print, I'm not sure if that was a WT quote or a report from someone on this board, I'll dig for it later.
Anyway, the point being there have been numerous errors and misquotes just over the last 7 years I've been on this board, so obviously the idiots are running the asylum up there.

Haha oh Steve just nailed it!
The organization now has its tidy, clean and neat website. No need to interact as a human being with lost sheep. Just tell them to get online and download their 'meat in due season' right off of jw.org. Hilarious.
A better idea for you Alchemist, head on over to jwfacts.com. Read and digest everything there for next 30 days. That should set you straight for the rest of your life.

What instructions came with the new brochure?
by dubstepped inlike the title says, i'm wondering if anyone here knows what instructions came with the new brochure about returning to jehovah.
did each person get a certain number at the convention?
are they to be handed out at will, up to each publisher's individual discretion?

Exactly what Phizzy wrote, the right response should be "How in the world would you know if I left Jehovah? Does the WTBTS "own" Jehovah?" And this response should be used no matter what you believe about the Hebrew desert God. -

I would imagine the instructions are somewhere along the lines of "Shove it up the ass of any faders you know" -

I Don't Get It!
by John Aquila inthere are literally about thirty young single very good looking sisters in this one kingdom hall under the age of 30. that is just one kingdom hall.
in the circuit there are literally hundreds of young beautiful jw girls under 30 who are single and anxious to get married.
about two years ago, this one single good looking brother who is about 30 years old and who is an elder married this plain looking sister who is 59 years old.

30 under 30 in one hall???
That's not the normal makeup of a hall. Most have 100 pubs max, of which 60% are over 40 years old. The rest have families and there are a half dozen or so that may be on the prowl to get married. Usually half of those are socially awkward or beaten with the ugly stick so they "pioneer" in order to attract an equally ugly/dorky JW male.
So we are down to 3 or 4 decent lookers. Most of those are still getting married between 18-22, simply so they can have sex. JW land doesn't change.

Why is the Governing Body pushing the very young(5-12 year old) into getting baptized into subservience to the Corporation?
by Brokeback Watchtower ini think a very simple reason may be because the very young are pretty much the only ones naive enough to take the plunge these days.
with the internet available to inform people about the deceptive lies printed by the wt corporation it seems that they are getting their member from the less informed population like the elderly and the very young.
they/gb hate higher education because they loose members who get one and so they are focusing on those that are dumb enough to believe their boogie man bull shit about jehovah choosing their corporation and anybody not a part of it he will destroyed at armageddon.. also we need to consider that they view these young people as a potential free labor source so the sooner you get them hooked into baptism with the threat of disfellowshipping you can get more free labor out of them..

Kids are trusting, they don't believe their parents would ever lie to them. So they see how happy it makes mom and dad if they dedicate their live to Jehoobie and they go ahead and take the plunge.
The WT society is consciously pushing this effort to trap children into a lifetime contract with the cult. If they effectively suppress the normal thinking and exploration that happens as a teenager and young adult, they have a servant for many decades, if not forever. They effectively pair this policy with their evil shunning doctrine, making the emotional pain of leaving intense for any person who contemplates doing so.
And the primary reason for doing it is because they have seen how poor their retention rate is over the past 30 years.
Its evil. They are emotionally enslaving little kids so their cult will survive. Dickheads.

Back in the Basement
by LostGeneration inlooks like the faithful jws are back in the basement, the oct 15th wt has this image on page 9. but now the lights have been turned out!
i guess the persecution is really kicking in if the electric company has shut off their electricity, or the jws are really, really paranoid that the government is gonna get them if they have the lights on!.
only one guy is smart enough to use his tablet (far right), the rest of the jws are old school, using a lantern to read their bibles in the dark!
