  "Unique opportunity"? What like every year is unique, or that 2014 is 100 years of special failure unique? Pure cult speak nonsense.

  i remember touring bethel when i was younger and when we breezed through the printing dept.

  i remember a brief speech given on how well written and well researched their articles were.

  a comment was thrown out on how even higher educated people appreciated their style, their excellence.

  You'd think if someone doesnt understand how something is happening they would conduct elimination tests themselves to work thru the possible causes BEFORE jumping straight to telekinesis as the reason and then making a fool of themselves right?

  But noooo,

  Have you read C.T. Russell's controversial view of "new light"?

  by Island Man in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  "if we were following a man undoubtedly it would be different with us; undoubtedly one human idea would contradict another and that which was light one or two or six years ago would be regarded as darkness now: but with god there is no variableness, neither shadow of turning, and so it is with truth; any knowledge or light coming from god must be like its author.

  a new view of truth never can contradict a former truth.

  new light never extinguishes older light, but adds to it.

  It never happened. There is zero evidence for it, nada, zip.

  It's just narrative and story telling and politico/religious backfilling to a predetermined end point.

  Watch as JWs are 'educated' by their 'bible student' about evolution, abiogenesis, Watchtower quote mining, etc. LOL.

  yes, i too have wondered how an assembly that is held in a fully paid for assembly hall, with no food service, could possibly have $10,000 in expenses.

  i suppose the bethel speakers have transportation expenses - maybe $1000 or so.

  as for rent on the assembly hall, well you have already paid for it once, why pay again?

  law school is obviously not the hardest program to follow.

  it isn't something that can be replicated on the internet.

  a first year student can find the law.

  Are the gospels just midrash?

  by yadda yadda 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  some responses to this common claim gleaned from internet sources;.

  the idea the gospels are simply midrash has several problems associated with it.

  one is that the genre as such did not exist yet in judaism as the midrashim are a few centuries later.

  Yadda, you didnt think much of Bart Erhman back then, and Leo didnt give her opinion on him that I could see in a quick skim thru (i was hoping she would)...

  Has your opinion of him changed now? Anyone else think poorly of his work?

  I ask because I rate him, but am well aware of how easy it is to fall into the trap of confirmation bias and I am trying to avoid doing that these days.
