Awesome!! The world is in turmoil yet bunker buddies have coffee and cookies.
Well, here's to hoping for much better conversation in prison.
watching the world - awake june 22, 1977. during the first interhemispheric conference on adolescent fertility, held recently at arlington, virginia, the delegates representing thirty-nine nations concluded that childbearing among teen-agers has reached the proportions of a “worldwide epidemic.” as quoted in medical tribune, iranian journalist nalia kazemian said in the keynote speech: “[we must] face the fact that the world-wide trend towards pregnancy and childbearing [at an early age] is a physical, social, and demographic crisis.
damaging the whole fabric of society.”.
daily mail - june 2, 2016. us teen pregnancy rate falls to an historic low.
Well, if it's an issue, certain demographics should plead to their authorities to change marriage laws. In other words, stop marrying off teen daughters.
i whiled away the time today in the wt researching the above question on line.
it seems to me that there is more evidence to say that the account simply depicts the poor nameless child/woman as being toast.
the idea of her going into "tabernacle service" is completely fabricated and has no basis in scripture.
What I find odd about bible "scholars", particularly Christians, is that they never seem to ask the Jews about their own writings.
Jepthah's daughter, the question posed of the lady who had seven husbands ( I know where that came from), the saying 'Where the dead body is there the vultures will gather.' (Where there's smoke there's fire. Ie, it will be obvious)
Ya gotta ask stuff if you want to know the whole of what's going on/being said.
one sentence answers only.. here's mine:.
jws exist because people want an escape from the modern world and are willing to give up intellectual freedom to get it..
.... because US Adventistism with a strong leaning toward Miller.
as i am watching this video about changes at bethel, the speaker said, "aren't we glad the faithful and discrete slave continues to make adjustments when necessary.
what about this change?
"finally, we examined why jesus’ arrival to appoint the faithful slave over all his belongings did not occur in 1919 but will take place during the great tribulation" that is from this online watchtower article last paragraph: https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/w20130715/jesus-prophecy-last-days/ .
See, that's your problem Greybeard. You got that thinking "disease"; that abomination which causes desolation. (I can jack up and misuse scriptures too, ☺) There's no understanding the incoherent, unreasonable, or insane.
They GB all but came out and said, "obey us even if it doesn't make any sense." That was said for the oldz that know stuff and for the young who may put together a coherent thought.
Videos of hiding in bunkers, extreme shunning bringing praise, give up all your means to 'the invisible cause' again? We're not the slave but are the slave. The org (a frigging LLC) is mother. We're your mediator, not Jesus ... follow us, obey us!!!! Do more! Tight pants and colorful socks are of satan. Referring to Christ as their brother but never their Lord, King, head, or husbandly owner? (Anyone can ignore a brother or sister)
Leaving the message of salvation for one of judgement????
I am quite afraid for my JW relatives as the GB and the psycho drunks in Writing seem off their lithium and about to go full moonbat.
in the january 8, 1947 awake!
magazine the following article appeared.. .
the above article was published under the watchtower presidency of nathan knorr.
Witness My Furya day ago
Drugs: Just say no.
Haaaaa! Er, we know a certain "House of god" is full of drunks.
i thought of this lastnight in light of these new assembly videos.
we have all seen posts about the comparison with the movie matrix but i think it's in reverse, here's what i mean.
the jw is in the matrix and yes are the batteries for the machine but instead of thier minds being all fun and happy and life being normal they are the ones being chased by the machines living in zion and thinking thier going to die at any moment.
quote from today's watchtower study article that's being studied at the halls (march 15, 2015, page 24):.
"understanding the illustration of the talents".
"when the master rewards the slaves.".
Honestly, they'll get out of that mess as the oldz who know die off. I mean really, if you knew the outright crazy crap (even in terms of 1800's crazy) they were teaching back then, there's no way Jesus would pick them to even scoop dog poo.
Really, the steam engine was the Biblical leviathan???? A good bit of the thought at that time was batshit crazy. Whatever "spirit" was directing that I seriously doubt it's the right one.
just sent this letter off to the governing body.
i also sent a copy to the britain branch.
the governing body.
That's going straight into the trash can as soon as the 19 y old on the desk gets to paragraph 2.
Paul's letters would have gone into the trash, as shall yours. It's not that kind of place .... you're dealing with people who think they are infallible.
If they don't listen to Jesus, they will not listen to you.
i don't really engage in doctrinal discussions about jw's anymore.
they seem to say some pretty crazy stuff.
but i have read some threads discussing doctrinal changes and how watchtower is really out of ideas and money at the same time.
I hope they don't do another false prophesy. I don't have time for a psychotic mother who has already wasted a good portion of her adulthood chasing the drunken dreams of deluded men.
"US-centric" deluded men.
