  The Governing Body and "Josephs generation"

  by The freewheeling in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  hi, i m new here and not so good in english, but ive give it a try and hope you understand.. .

  the whole idea of the overlapped generation is not only illogical, there are also serious errors in reasoning and how to interpret the scripture.. .

  the only "scriptural argument" that the governing body has managed to bring in this matter is exodus 1: 6 where they say that a "generation" can be stretched to cover a longer period than usually meant by a "generation".

  i always thought it was bullet-proof:.

  "if your doctor directs you to 'abstain from alcohol' would you be ok to have it injected into your veins rather than drink it?

  Blindingly Obvious - But Not to J.W.'s

  by The Searcher in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if a fellow j.w.

  asked a publisher/pioneer/missionary j.w., "how are your hours this month", they will gladly reveal how many hours they've racked up "for jehovah.".

  now ask them, "how much money have you contributed to kingdom interests this month", they'd look at you as if you were beelzebub himself, and tell you that that was "personal.

  what do you really believe

  what do you really believe the percentage is for jw who are truly ignorant of what is going on behind closed doors of the w.t.

  as opposed to those who actually know something is wrong & yet go along with it for whatever reason?

  i have been asked for coffee by what i can only describe as one of the sweetest persons i have ever known & i cant even begin to conceive that she knows what is happening with the child abuse cases but then how do i know?

I don't cause for most of us there is the fear that we will be found out & punished so we say what we have to, to protect ourselves. What is your opinion on this?

  Blurring of genders

  by Saltheart Foamfollower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as sometimes happens at elders meetings with the co, he has a letter from the branch to read out.

  this rarely is made available later so any policies have to be acted on from memory.

  this visit a letter was read about blurring of the genders and in particular brothers dressing in a metrosexual style - tight clothing was mentioned again.

  What the hell are these guys on, are they taking away all personal choice. This comes down to their personal opinion. Well Puppet-masters in my opinion I find it effeminate for a man to wear jewellery including rings of any description. It isn't something I would wish to see my husband wearing & that's o.k. It`s also o.k. for some-one else to have a different opinion to me, it`s just a matter of personal taste.

  I think it has to do with what the motive of the individual is personally. For instance if you read Gen 19:30-38, it talks of Lots daughters getting him drunk & basically raping him. But what was the motive behind it? V 31,32. "Preserve offspring from our father". Their intentions were for good, for their fathers name to be carried forward. If you compare that with Lots wife , all she did was look back & she died, how could this have been a worse sin? because her heart was bad, She was not worried for the wellbeing of her daughters safety only for her own loss she was selfish. How much more so should this principle stand now that we have the sacrifice of Jesus, if we have no mercy on behalf of others then what does that sacrifice really mean, would we not be making it worthless. If a person chooses to have a blood transfusion to preserve a life, their own or that of a dearly loved one is their motive one of selfishness or of love. God is the judge of us all, it is the reasoning of our heart that he reads not our doing something out of fear of the GB. They always have an illustration that covers their asses but somehow they always miss the point. This is of cause my own opinion on the matter, while not the illustration you were looking for i hopes it helps.

  That is pretty much it isn't it. Those poor little kids. Have no idea that one day mummy and daddy will completely shun them if they don't do exactly what the puppet masters tell them.

  How wonderful is JW.ORG

  by Sabin in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  there are some who still love the organization & the people in it.. who understand that every large organization has their own issues.. they believe the advice on what type of person you are supposed to be & how to treat others has made them a better person.

  and they believe, quite frankly, even if the g.b are a bunch of narcissistic wannabe powerful guys, the worest thing they have done is to wake up people on saturday mornings.. i`ve been awake most of the night thinking about this, wondering if this person had a point.

  then something came to my mind.

  Maksutov, the first 4 statements are not mine. They belong to a person who doubts the existence of God while defending the organization. It disturbed me that is all. I think it is better to have faith in a God then to have faith in WTBTS when they so obviously are corrupt. I just wanted to remind them of the information that they would have had access to so they could ask themselves wether going along with these policy`s truly made them the better person that they claimed to be. I hope this make it easy for you to understand.
