  Why did they change the sterilization beliefs?

  by mkr32208 in

  2. beliefs

  i posted this on another thread but it suddenly seemed more important and i wanted to get some opinions!

  i was still a dub when sterilization changed from a consciences matter to a no-no.

  i remarked to my wife at the time that i thought the reason for this was a declining membership!

  watchtower red flags

  by Ticker in

  when i was studying and in the org i never did put two and two together becuase first off it was peer pressure and a young baptism age.

  i was indoctrinated as a child so i never got a chance to ever use sound reason and judgement toword the validity of the society's claims.

  but anywho i was thinking the other day about certain things that are obvious red flags and far fetched claims that the org makes.

  "as to the old testament name of god, certainly the spelling and pronunciation "jehovah" were originally a blunder.

  (the bible in living english, 1972, p.7, watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvania) .

  1975---- DID IT REALLY BOTHER YOU?

  2. friends

  on the net you see many talk about 1975 and how it affected so many.

  obviously, some left the organization when nothing happened in 1975. were you personally affected by 1975?

  has the fixing of dates been a major reason for your disappointment with the witnesses?

  Does the wtbts have a 'bible study' on this?

  by Bang in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i posted this on the main section but it seems that it's not a well known issue.

  it's the question regarding the way jws go door to door.

  [luke 10:7.23] and remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide,for the laborer deserves his wages; do not go from house to house.
