  Almost none

  Ask one that you see about the "Royal Commission trial"..........they won't have a clue.

  I've been watching his testimony thanks to the great people on this site.

  Rodney Spinks is lying....... a lot.

  On several occasions he attempts to talk in circles, only to have the judge and/or lawyer tell him he didn't answer the question. Elders/Branch Overseers have no clue how to deal with people that don't get confused or intimidated by them. Its SO fun to watch!!!

  It is truly something to watch when Spinks starts talking........... and wow is he lying a lot.

  The vast majority of JWs have no clue this even going on.

  Go ahead, ask one.

  They will look at you with a blank stare.

  Rodney Spinks Lies...

  by iwasblind in

  hi guys.

  i actually have had dealings with rod and found him to be a very reasonable and "non-robotic" man in the past.. i know it should not surprise me, but i was disappointed to hear his lies and half-truths.. they know their stuff and are not easily led, but he tried to lead the royal commission to believe that 2 people could be involved in investigating a claim - which is wrong.. his lack of memory on what parts of the judicial process are biblical - hello - none are.

  there are no scriptures that backup the use of 3 men, a body of elders, cutting people off from family and friends, restrictions, etc.. he also lied about the gb being involved in policy creation and changes.. his statement that in all cases, elders are told to inform parents that they can go to the authorities and get the full support of the congregation is not verifiable.

  For all those that have seen the arrogant attitudes of elders their entire life.....How FUN is it to watch this guy squirm?????

  He keeps trying to speak in circles and it doesn't work......thinking, educated people just look at him and tell him 'no'......

  Cult. For lurking JW's..... please plug your brain back in. Listen to this guy talking in circles and how the Judge and attorney just unravel him.

  mr vincent toole, he gets 3 meals a day his accommodation, daily exercise & a degree to be a lawyer.

  they are asking for kids ice-cream money so they can send their monkeys to uni to get them off child abuse cases, while telling the ones giving the money not to get a higher education.

  holy shit i never thought about that before.

  first off, i don't think that dude is going to show face.

  he's most likely on a plane already.

  if he shows it's bad pr and if he doesn't show it's bad pr.

  He isn't going to appear.

  He is a pussy.

  Odd isn't it? Someone that claims to be "God's representative on earth" is passing up an opportunity to clear the reproach on Jehovah's name...

  ...not very Christlike of him, is it?

  Aside from the tragic pain of the victims, the most disgusting thing about this case is that ZERO JW's in the U.S. know anything about this entire situation.

  Ask one.......... they have no idea what you're talking about.

  Once you leave this cult, you realize that they are the very definition of Orwellian.

  Who or What is the Holy Spirit?

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  tradition within christianity has long been that any time the phrases holy spirit, holy ghost, or spirit of godare used in the bible (especially in the new testament), it always refers to the mysterious third divine person of the trinity, who is fully god, co-equal to the father and son, yet somehow distinct.. i want to present a simplified alternative view: let the context determine the meaning!.

  (one thing to keep in mind is that the meaning of the bible words used for spirit basically is unseen force or invisible presence.).

  the holy spirit as the mind and personality of god.

  This is a funny thread!

  This triggered a memory in me: When I was an elder, the PO (no longer a position, right?) confided in me that he didn't understand Holy Spirit or know what it was.....he felt guilty about it.

  Of course, he was 'appointed by holy spirit'.................god its all so funny now.

  Governing Body Obesity

  by Calebs Airplane in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  not sure if this subject has been covered recently but i thought i'd make this observation anyway.... i remember when the word "gluttony" was a frequently mentioned sin in public talks, in the wt publications, in convention talks, etc.. in fact, in the 80's and 90's it wasn't unusual to hear the words "gluttony" and "disfellowship" mentioned in the same sentence.

  i haven't been to a meeting in over 5 years, so i'm not sure if they still harp on the subject of gluttony or other excesses.

  but i can't help but notice how much heavier the gb 2.0 has become compared to previous regimes.

  Again, can they show anyone a scripture where Jesus said generations would overlap?

  You honestly have to completely shut your brain off and drown in your own drool to believe this stuff..... I venture a guess that most JW's don't "believe" it.....but as we all know, are afraid to leave
