  Who wants to help put together the ultimate Watchtower Index Wiki?

  by pirata in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  presenting: wtindex.info.

  there are a great deal of watchtower publication references available on a number of sites, and on this forum, but it takes a lot of searching, digging, and reading to find them.. i have put together a wiki that currently catalogs:.

  1) subject references for watchtower publications (from 1800s to present), in an organized and clear way.. 2) the sources of quotations (with context) used in watchtower publications.

  Pirata,

  What you started here was great. I would love to see an index of all the dishonest or misleading quote mining from the WT. Another thing that would be great would be an index of all the changed doctrine and doctrinal flip-flops.

  sorry if this has already been discussed.

  i've only just had a quick look at the 15th july wt.

  once again i've looked at it from the point of view of the governing body dictating to their secretary, the text to rush down to the printing press.. page 21 para 16/17.

  Thomas,

  Were the words in quotes a direct quotation from the article, or were you paraphrasing?

  Great post Terry. But don't dwell on the lunacy too much. It's bad for your health. How anybody can buy the 1914 doctrine after researching its origin and foundation is beyond me. Yet, most JWs have NEVER investigated it or questioned it at all! The very, very few who do (like us here on this board) either A) leave, or B) Bury their head up their ass even farther until the base of their neck reaches their esophagus.

  the purpose is that you may walk in the way of good people and that the paths of the righteous ones you may keep.

  for the upright are the ones that will reside in the earth, and the blameless are the ones that will be left over in it.

  as regards the wicked, they will be cut off from the very earth; and as for the treacherous, they will be torn away from it.

  Crofty,

  Could you please elaborate on the whole idea of Satan being borrowed from the dualistic zorastrian religion? Wasn't Job written before the exile? The Persians wouldn't have had much influence on Hebrew theology until 537.
