Thought Control in New Light on FDS Article

by Ding in

the july, 2013 watchtower article giving their "new light" on the fds begins as follows:.

'brothers, i cannot begin to count the times you have put into my hands articles that contained just what i needed when i needed it most.

' that is how one sister expressed her appreciation in a letter to the brothers who work at our world headquarters.

'BROTHERS, I cannot begin to count the times you have put into my hands articles that contained just what I needed when I needed it most.' That is how one sister expressed her appreciation in a letter to the brothers who work at our world headquarters.

Pffff, I can have a filed day with this garbage filled with logical fallacies.

Hasty generalization, to begin with. One sister sent a letter and this somehow applies to 8 million people?

Besides, having exactly what she needed, when she needed it could easily mean she used the rags for toilet paper when in the crapper.

See, fits the profile

Challenge to you prophets - can you meet it?

by punkofnice in

i challenge anyone that can accurately predict events by reading the bible or your prophetic book of choice, to give me a specific date when something will happen so i can watch for it!.

give us the date here (not a pm) and tell us what will happen.. let there be no excuses!

no get out clauses of ''it doesn't work that way'' or similar.

The Lion Will Eat Straw Like An Ox In The New System

the wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, and dust will be the serpent's food.

they will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain," says the lord..

All above discussion is zapped away by a faulty premise:

There is no NEW SYSTEM, people!!!

(I know most of you know, just saying )

Progressive Insurance Snapshot?

by skeeter1 in

anyone try this "snapshot" tool that snaps into your vehicle to save on auto insurancel?

let you know if i get savings.

i don't drive much, if any, these days.

Yan Bibiyan

I have Progressive and am pretty happy with the overall insurance "experience" (necessary evil:-), but on this one I am with DaCheech.

Not only driving info in terms of driving style, but if outfitted with GPS, timestamped route and whereabouts info as well...stored, archived and available for data mining indefinitely...

Call me paranoid, but this is just a bit much for my liking.

Moses and his God directed mass genocide.

by AMO in

was wondering what modern day christians take is on the slaughter of hundreds of thousands perhaps millons, on his god directed journey to the promised land.???.

.

amo.

Yan Bibiyan

The next step is to confirm what really did happen, to seperate the actual acts from the written "hyperbole".

PSacramento, if the same question is posed for, say, the life of Jesus or a host of other supernatural events in the bible, Christians suddenly have a problem.

Of course it is factual, it is in the bible....

New light Watchtower magazine leaked from organization weeks ahead of general release

by cedars in

http://jwsurvey.org/governing-body-2/new-light-watchtower-magazine-leaked-from-organization-weeks-ahead-of-general-release.

if doctrinal explanations are missing from the article, it is because they are also missing from the magazine.. i would like to give my thanks again to my source for supplying me with the magazine article weeks ahead of its scheduled release.

it showed remarkable courage, because risks were taken.

Yan Bibiyan

Wouldn't it be funny as hell if the actual printed article has major "adjustments" due to the criticism here...

Yan Bibiyan

Been called twice, never selected.

I have a Trump card, if need be. My father was a police office for over 30 years. All a defense attorney needs to hear to send you packing because of possible partiality.

New magazine cover from the religion that calls former believers "mentally diseased"....

by cedars in

apparently "prejudice" applies only to racial equality and has nothing to do with diverse sexual orientation or religious beliefs.

it's news to me, but that's the only way i can explain this latest cover from the society.. http://download.jw.org/files/media_magazines/86/wp_e_20130601.pdf.

cedars.

I wonder what dirty joke the white guy had just said...

No prejudice? So, brothers can't tell jokes?

Latino dude looks slightly uncomfortable...what, does he barely speak english and laughs just to blend in?

I can point at least 10 more implied prejudice hints in that picture...
