I think bible is worser than WT.
WT was originate through crazy interpretations from the bible. The bible is a source of suffering to mankind.
it seems that the more i research, the more i find that it's all just a big scam.
is there any evidence that even the bible isn't just another big religion/government scam?
would we listen to putin or obama if they told us they have verified new holy writings?

then why would they be so insistent about dfing people ?
if it's money the watchtower org is after, it seems like they'd want to hold on to all the members they can.. how would you answer this logic?.
Are U trying to argue with a JW using logic? Good luck for you.
Their only "logic" is "we are right and you are doomed".
(He says it is an unfortunate necessity that is carried out in order to accomplish their assignment from God to spread the word and live in accordance to his commandments.)
Using Ray Franz example, how a meal with your boss can be a source of problem in spreading the "word of God"?
It's not about word of god or world of dog, it's all about control. We control you, so if you does not listen and obey you will not be blessed.
It's a control freak cult. They want (and they do) control the very thought of the JW's.
Control first, and money is a natural result from it...

Sexual selection always favors pretty women. And pretty women have child traits. So...
i really wonder about that.
.
just like they say in prayers, that they "love" the governing body---do they really??
Jehovah to me was always about fear.
i`m just curious about the travel arrangements of the g.b.members when they travel overseas to conventions in europe , africa , australia , etc.. is their any verifiable documents /receipts etc.
that prove they stay in the most up market hotels , or fly first class in planes ?, being treated like v.i.p.`s ?.
no human being is exempt from the temptations of abusing his power or position of authourity , especially when big money is involved , and the g.b.
(I can't imagine a hard-drinking, hard-fornicating individual like Richard Burton actually "enjoying" a conversation with a cyborg like Knorr....)
I bet he used that conversation as inspiration to his character in the 1984 movie.
so, the round of "regional" conventions has been going on for a few months now.
for those that attended, or those that got transcripts of the parts,.
what was the most absurd thing you heard at yours?.
Greedy frustrated people... I thought christians were supposed to want to reach God not beach houses...

Good question.
It's related to purpose. Purpose + Money.
WT wants money by accomplishing their purpose.
Their purpose is to control, micro management of 7mi of people around the world. And they want money doing that because it's their purpose.
Your question is the same of "Why Google does not make food?" or "Why McDonalds does not make software?".
They could turn the WT in a big fast food company if you think just in money. But they don't want to abandon their purpose in first place.
WT purpose: Listen Obey and Be Blessed. Control, control, control....
in other words, can i use a loanword.
or a parochial phrase of an english based dialect.
or a short motto from another language along with a translation without being in violation.
If you not post in english or portuguese (the languages I understand) I'll not be able to read what you are trying to share.
You know, we are trying to build a tower to heaven here, so we have to speak the same language.
But we can try Java...
i talked to my brother today who is still a practicing jw (i've managed to fade) .
we were talking and suddenly he asked me if i thought satan could read my mind.
and he said "yeah i though the answer was yes and then i found out that satan cant read my mind".
Satan knows, it's easy.
Sex, sex, sex, money, power, power, lazyness, fear...
4 weeks of football and wimbledon tennis in between!?

I think it's very disrespectful sport players praying for victory. Praying players deserves to lose.
