No Independent Thinking?
by FrankWTower incorrect me if i'm wrong, but i think i just realized another wt contradiction.
i read a critical analysis of the origin of life and was life created brochures called "weighed and found wanting" (which is exellent by the way and recommend it, it's here somewhere).
as i read along on the brochures i finally noticed how the society makes constant appeals to your own common sense and intuition.

Social Networks are a threat to the Watchtower Society
by FrankWTower inin recent months there have been massive protests and demonstrations against autocratic rulers in the middle east and north africa.
many of these were possible in part because the protesters used social media services like facebook, youtube and twitter to get the word out and let the world know what was going on.
these services are so threatening to many governments that they're blocked in order to control their people.

Evolution vs. Watchtower Society
by FrankWTower ina few months ago i had a part in the service meeting about evolution.
it was based on the reasoning book's entire section on the topic.
my conscience bothered me because it was the scientific method and science in general that led me to doubt my beliefs in the first place.

Watchtower study for week of Feb. 7, 2011
by FrankWTower inthis past weekend a quote from the wt study caught my eye.
it can be found on paragraph 14 of the article.. "however, worsening world conditions have caused many to respond when shown that alienation fromgod is at the root of human evil and suffering.".
i'm just focusing on the first par that says the world is getting worse.

Matthew 24:14
by FrankWTower ini don't know if you've read anything like this before, but i'd like to share anyway.
as you know, we hear time and time again how we've preached pretty much in every country on earth (with a few exceptions for safety reasons).
well, maybe we have, but that doesn't mean we've reached even half of the people on earth.

This Week's # 2
by FrankWTower ini've been noticing for a while now how the watchtower sometimes seems to change the meanings of words in the english language in order to not label jw's as anything that has anything to do with the rest of the world.. for example, this week's number 2 part in the theocratic ministry school dealt with: are jehovah's witnesses a sect?.
when i look to dictionaries for the definition of this word they all have similar meanings, albeit with different wording.
a group of people forming a distinct unit within a larger group by virtue of certain refinements or distinctions of belief or practice.
