June 15th WT ( again ) WT Society Bashes College & Earning a Living
by flipper insorry for the redundancy of this being the 3rd article out of this magazine i've made a thread on- but i felt it was important to share these quotes from the aricle titled " make your way successful - how ?
" i think you'll see the extreme dissing of higher education here and guilt tactics used to discourage jw members from getting a college education or earning a decent living.. under the subheading " higher education " ?
it states, " a christian has a scriptural obligation to care for his family, and that includes providing for their material needs.

Grzegorz, the computer programmer, made some changes in his life. He said:
"Taking seriously the advice of the elders,. I realized that I did need to further my
secular education. That would open up opportunities at Bethell in the IT department."
Grzegorz got more involved in congregation activities so as to qualify to be accepted
To Bethell . In time, he graduated from what he saw as his greatest opportunity of
Service to Jehovah. He is now serving faithfully at Bethell under his actual name of Johnny.
Yes, he 'bought out the time' to further both his divine AND his secular education.-Eph. 5:16

How can JW's not believe in the soul and yet believe in the spirit?
by Terry inthis is a real puzzler.. for christendom at large there is no problem in thinking of humans as a body (tent) which houses the soul.. for jehovah's witnesses the human is the tent.
no soul is contained.
(they make "soul" the same as body.).

Psalms 11:5 in new world translation and others speaks of Jehovah having soul. Does this mean Jehovah is mortal. The witnesses claim the soul is mortal. If Jehovah has soul does it mean that he is mortal?

Of course my post is sposed to be mockery/sarcasm. I have gone a little further in my quest for finding rhyme or reason than Lore. More and more I struggle to find the rhyme or reason to the watchtower org publishing a mag like the awake at all. Why did Jah through holy spirit prod the faithful slave to get into this kind of endeavour. Oh, oh. Just had a thought. Unusual for me, but I just realized I do know what it's about. The original Golden age mag was another money stream and it made gettin the meatier watchtower into the hands of the unsuspecting public. Just place the golden age, and now the awake on top of the watchtower, stick them into the face of the householder whilst featuring an article about - wait for it - the ideal stopper "a cork" and hopefully voila the householder takes both mags and disappears into the house. Two more placements for the record slip and even though the donation aspect was not mentioned like has been featured hundreds of times in numerous service meeting parts the ultimate goal has been achieved, more placements for the record slip. And lest we/I let sarcasm totally overtake us, let us not overlook that someone, sometime has got to read or at least look at the watchtower as well. And even though they have not featured the donation aspect, they will record and then place, out of their pocket, money into the donation box so that heaven forbid the org/mother does not get cheated out of their/her due. And surely out of the millions of mags placed like this, surely one story will emerge for a future mag and or assembly part, of someone "coming into the truth" in just such a way.

It is problematic indeed. Regardless of how god does the replecation, even if just by remembering, it suggests that something never goes away/dies.
