  what is the all time best example of the WT selective history?

  by Aussie Oz in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it's almost like there are so many little things that add up to a lot, a lot of evidence that the wt selectivly presents its history, and even attempts to re-write it at times.. but if you had to choose just one item to prove your point, what would it be?.

  oz.

  Mormons in decline because of the Internet

  interesting article.

  i've often thought empirically mormons have an even harder sell than jws.

  the watchtower merely falsifies the date of the fall of jerusalem.

  How to Record a Judicial Meeting

  by 00DAD in

  1. watchtower

  introduction: this subject came up on another thread and seemed important enough to justify its own thread:.

  judicial hearing procedure, chapter 7. recording devices.

  "recording devices should not be allowed.

  • Perhaps an upfront discloser like below could be used before the meeting started.

  The following phrases may be used to request person's consent:

  "For training purposes and your own security your call may be monitored and recorded."

  "In order to ensure excellent customer service, your call may be monitored or recorded."

  "Thank you for calling America Online. To insure the highest level of customer service, this call may be monitored and recorded."

  "All Blue HealthLine calls are completely confidential. However, your call may be monitored and recorded to insure quality of service."

  As we see here, the quotes (taken from real life telephone operators) reflect and disclose pretty honestly a purpose of recording a call.

  Something I never realized or thought of before: Discreet vs Discrete

  by poopsiecakes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so my whole life i heard the phrase 'faithful and discrete slave' and never paid attention to the real meaning of "discrete".

  which is weird, because i'm a bit of a word junkie.

  i guess the familiarity of the expression made me mentally gloss over it somehow.

  If it was ok... then why keep it a secret? Most Jw that I have asked about this knew nothing and most said it was a lie.

  • For Me: THE FACT THAT THEY KEEP IT A SECRET (or "forgot" to mention it) to the flock shows that they KNEW they were going against their own teachings (gods?).

  • Level the playing field... lets all play by the same set of rules!
  • Your arguments show you to be disingenuous... you know but you don't want to admit it... so you misdirect.

  As the saying goes: "It's not a lie if you believe it"

  As a JW child, were you afraid to swallow your own blood?

  by biometrics in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  growing up as a jw born-in during the 1980s i distinctly remember cutting my tounge.

  i was afraid to swallow my blood, thinking that if i even swallowed one drop i woudn't make it to the new system.

  so i kept spitting the blood out.
