OP, or others, what is your take on the "Simplified English" version? I know the borg came up with some bull$hit explanation, but for some reason, I can't take it at face value

July 15th WT out - Coming out Swinging at Apostates Hard
by LostGeneration inthis is one of the most aggressive watchtowers i think i have ever read.. four study articles on not "following the crowd" not following unrealities(page 13) not following false teachers, meaning apostates of course(p 15).
avoiding false teachers means "refusing to read their literature, watch tv programs that feature them, examine their web sites, or add comments to their blogs.
(para 7, pg 16).

Seems to me they dance around the same old beaten to death argument - if it is complex and orderly, it must have been created.
....but Jehovah, being the most complex and orderly of them all, fails miserably the test of creation based on complexity and order.

This Site Has NEVER Been About Having 100% Freedom Of Speech
by minimus ini get a kick out of the posters that get upset over realizing that their opinions are not always appreciated.
the forum owner has made it plain that he calls the shots and not everything expressed by posters will be accepted.. folks, that's thev way it's always been here.
simon will call the shots.

May 15th WT - Wives Should be Obedient, Submissive & Not Disagree
by flipper inonce again we received the may 15th " witness only " wt from our lurking jw friend.
even though i've been out for over 7 years and haven't attended in that long - i never cease to be amazed at the arrogance of this patriarchal man pleasing wt society in it's dismissive attitude towards women .
it's horrible.

Flipper,
It is admirable for your lurking JW friend to provide you with some spiritual food, but to lighten the burden on them and to get faster service, why don't you go directly to the spiritual "buffet" here. In full color and free instant delivery.....
Enjoy your meal

God's Slow to Anger
by charlie brown jr. inremember the story of the ark of the covenant on the wagon and it started to fall and one of the men grabbed it so as not to have it fall on the ground and it's contents spill on the ground...... what happened...oh yeah jah stuck him dead!!
for touching it.... i remember the wts saying it was disrespectful to have it on a wagon..... so much for slow to anger lol!.

CBJr,
It was slow. He struck in about 2 seconds. From Jah's perspective, and we know he can break time down to picoseconds and beyond, he could have struck in about 10-20 nanoseconds. So yeah, what's your problem with that.....

WL...Oh, boy...
...At one time there was nothing. No light, no matter, no life, no gender, no emotions, nothing. Everything that exists is an invention of God.
...but then....
if all variables are known - God can figure it out
Did God invent unknown variables? Doesn't this kinda screw up both his omniscience and omnipotence?

They say they wont be the only ones saved...
Actually, their literature says exactly the opposite (double speak, if you ask me). See for yourself:
- "Only Jehovah's Witnesses, those of the anointed remnant and the "great crowd," as a united organization under the protection of the Supreme Organizer, have any Scriptural hope of surviving the impending end of this doomed system dominated by Satan the Devil." Watchtower 1989 Sep. 1 p.19
"Similarly, Jehovah is using only one organization today to accomplish his will. To receive everlasting life in the earthly Paradise we must identify that organization and serve God as part of it." Watchtower 1983 Feb. 15 p.12
"Is it presumptuous of Jehovah's Witnesses to point out that they alone have God's backing? Actually, no more so than when the Israelites in Egypt claimed to have God's backing in spite of the Egyptians' belief, or when the first-century Christians claimed to have God's backing to the exclusion of Jewish religionists." Watchtower 2001 June 1 p.16
"During the final period of the ?ancient world? that perished in the Flood, Noah was a faithful ?preacher of righteousness.? (2 Peter 2:5) In these last days of the present system of things, Jehovah?s people are making known God?s righteous standards and are declaring good news about the possibility of surviving into the new world. (2 Peter 3:9-13) Just as Noah and his God-fearing family were preserved in the ark, survival of individuals today depends on their faith and their loyal association with the earthly part of Jehovah?s universal organization." Watchtower2006 May 15 p.22 "Are You Prepared for Survival?" Paragraph 8 -
