Translating accurately is really f*&%$ing hard!

by TTWSYF in

i wanted to relay an example that i heard about translating difficulties.

take the 5 word phrase.

"i didn't eat your sandwich".

"I didn't eat your sandwich"

Seems easy enough, but what if you emphasize different words, doesn't that change the translation?

How about emphasizing the "I"?

"I didn't eat your sandwich" may indicate that I did not, but someone else may have.

"I didn't EAT your sandwich" may indicate that I didn't eat it, but I did something else to it.

"I didn't eat YOUR sandwich" may indicate that I didn't eat your sandwich, but I may have eaten someone elses.

'i didn't eat your SANDWICH'' may indicate that I didn't eat your sandwich, but I may have eaten something else of yours.

Now, what would be easier to mess translation up? These 5 simple words or the bible?

JW`s Lie about Christendom hiding the Name Jehovah.or its equivalent Yahweh

by smiddy in

jehovahs witnesses have been outspoken over the years/decades that christendom have been hiding or obscuring or even eliminating gods name jehovah from the general public.. how true is that statement .?.

1. it was a catholic monk of the 13th century that first coined the name jehovah in the english language.. 2.the roman catholic douay version of the bible does have the name jehovah in it.

about the 16th century.

Any kind of scholar would know that the epistles ascribed to Ignatius of Antioch are considered to be either spurious or corrupted.

Earnest- There are numerous complete writings of many of the church fathers. Every one of them stated that Jesus was God in the flesh...

just saying, cause it's true

When JWs Pray for Houston

by NJ501 in

when i hear prayers given by brothers why do they only pray for other jws not all people??

i remember hearing a comment from my mother saying 4000 jws are affected by this...and i'm thinking yes that is sad but what about the tens of thousands other people affected?

too me it just doesn't seem right to just pray for jws but to pray for all victims.

TTWSYF

Too me it just doesn't seem right to just pray for JWs but to pray for all victims. I now pray all people. Is this wrong? Should you only pray for people of your own faith?

You may be on to something

Why pray for people who don't exist in Jehovah's eyes because they "do not know him."

Ummm, because the bible instructs us to.

The WTS lies. It's called theocratic warfare. It used to be called 'Lying for the Truth'

A catholic monk coined the name Jehovah by adding the vowels of adoney {Lord} to the tetragrammatron.

Sorry for poor spelling

Are JWs "mind trained" to be habitual liars?

by nonjwspouse in

i don't mean overly obvious, or otherwise meaning to cause harm, but taught to lie for the purpose of avoidance.

this type of lying can be pervasive in areas of life that are not just to avoid discussions with people who have questions about the jw, etc.

my husband will lie/be deceitful about the silliest, simple things.

TTWSYF

My brother used to say ;We are lying for the Truth. Lies for promoting the Truth is an acceptable way to lie. He reasoned that if the Nazis were looking for people to persecute, is it a sinful lie to protect them by lying?

Ya, that's what people are doing when asking legit questions about the WTS and the Jehovahs Witnesses. They're looking for Jew to gas...

Theocratic Warfare= being a bold faced liar

Jehovah's Witnesses are Actual Witnesses to the Lies and Corruption of the Watchtower Corporation

by Finkelstein in

bold statement to make is it not but when one critically examines and evaluates of what the jws members are involved and participating in, it becomes clear to what is going on in this organization that has a publishing house operating at it's core.. the descriptive words such as exploitation and manipulation can be clearly seen and observed.

jws are supposed to be witnesses to the events which occurred starting in 1914, christ's positioning himself upon his heavenly throne marking the start of the end times " this generation ".. the real truth to all these endeavors by this religious publishing house is it created doctrines on it's own to enhance the continuing proliferation of its own published literature, at the same time establishing a semblance of power to the top directors of the organization.. there is no scriptural support toward these doctrines such as 1914, actually making or calculating a date is against jesus's own instructions handed down into preaching of his gospel.

so what we have is a religious publishing house brainwashing people into thinking their serving god jehovah when in actually they are serving the decidedly corrupt watchtower corporation, its means and purpose by the men who created it and now run it.

TTWSYF

I agree for the obvious reasons that there are no fruits what so ever from the WTS.None.

I've said it before and I'll say it again...or write it anyway.

There's no truth in a faith that promotes "Lying for the Truth'' or Theocratic Warfare.

That's not harsh, that's the truth

Jehovahs Witnesses and Babylon The Great.Why the Emphasis on the R.C.Church and not on Islam.

by smiddy in

i was thinking back to when the book babylon the great has fallen gods kingdom rules.was published many years ago when it was believed religion was declining in the world.. the book took exception to the r.c.church as the worst of christendom substituting themselves for the kingdom of god on earth , the counterfeit kingdom i think they called them.vicar of christ on earth.. and while its true to some degree in western lands today that religion is declining as regards christendom it is not happening in non christian religions around the world.. which brings me to the unprcedented rise and spread of islam in the world today .. with the war in iraq ,syria ,etc,and the people fleeing these war torn countries to europe and elsewhere around the globe with refugees and asylum seekers the spread of islam in the short space of time now beats any missionary projects conducted by christendom.. judaism ,christendom and islam all have their roots in the bible.the jews first then christians then muslims.. the bible only relates to the first two jews and christians and is completely silent about muslims.even in prophecy.. the book mentioned earlier btggkr nowhere mentions islam or muslims.as if they didnt even exist ,yet today they equal in numbers to all of christendoms religions.. islam today is by far a greater threat to christianity and especially to jehovahs witnesses than anything the roman catholic church ever posed before.. obviously the holy bible and the holy spirit or jehovahs chosen people the jehovahs witnesses never did forsee the rise and influence of the religion of islam in todays world.. the bible is completely silent about islam or the rise of muslims on the world stage.. could it be that they could no more predict the future than i could ?.

the wtb&ts the publishing house of jehovahs witnesses have for the past 100 years have continually attacked the roman catholic religion and portrayed them in an unfavourable light.time after time in mags and books,.

how many times have the wtb&ts attacked and challenged the religion of islam and muslims and condemned them as a principle member of babylon the great the empire of false religion.. to this day jehovahs witnesses cannot freely go door to door preaching their message in muslim dominated countries where proselytism is forbidden.

Why the R.C. are the biggest WTS target? Because there is no love for Jesus in watchtower land. Sure, there's a lot of talk, but no action. The catholic church was started by Jesus and the WTS hates that. The catholic church gave the world the bible, hospitals, orphanages, food banks, shelters, the school/college system, invented the scientific method and teaches the radical idea of 'loving your enemy'. They teach more people and help more people than any other organization of government that has ever existed. They are the largest charity in the world and their fruits cannot be measured when you try to add it all up.

The WTS goes door to door with a poorly edited and very inaccurate rag [Watchtower and Awake]. They talk down about other faiths because their faith is so very shallow. WTS fruits? - We're restoring God's true name. Well, where's the fruit from that? How does that help anyone including God?
