So what this paragraph is really saying is: "All you folks out there who aren't buying this new generation shit, JUST OBEY ANYWAY. The GB do it, so should you."
My question is, if the GB don't question faulty reasoning, why does it ever change?
every paragraph and every article in this issue is nonstop heavy artillery fire propaganda.
i have never seen a wt so full of logical fallacies, appeals to emotion, appeals to authority, guilt tripping and bite techniques all in one issue!
paragraph 9 states clearly that even though the gb is imperfect, that does not matter, we must obey them anyways.

i just finished crysis of a conscience and all i have to say is wow!
showed how they sadly look for doctrine changes to fit their agenda vs what the bible says.
any new light or changes i'll be wondering the real motive behind them.
Right now I'm reading High as the Horses' Bridles by Scott Cheshire, who was raised as a JW. An amazing description of the Stanley Theater (he calls it something else - this is fiction) in the first few pages. A great writer, enjoying the book so far. . . .
oh wow..... i have just seen the cover picture for the november awake!.
sorry, i don't know how to post a picture here....(perhaps someone else can assist?).
it is just plain creepy.. the article is called "keys to a happy life".... but the looks on the faces say something different!

my wife, who now thinks i am not competent enough to discuss spiritual matters with the kids, thinks that i could really benefit from discussing matters of the bible with this nasa engineer who attends meetings at her kingdom hall.
apparently, he is quite knowledgeable in the bible and has a good grasp of their doctrines.
at least according to her as i never actually spoken with the man at length but i do know that he is an elder.
My father was an engineer for the Department of Defence. . . . a smart guy. That being said, he was/is absolutely CLUELESS with regards to religion, and although he opposed my upbringing as a JW by my mother, he never really posed a good argument against it. He just got angry.
Speaking to him now, he realizes this wasn't ever his strong point. Sure he's great with mathematics and problem solving in the physical world. . . but not so great at critical thinking skills/reasoning through bullshit. I think a lot of engineers are the same way. I call it "engineer brain" . . . . really damn smart with regards to problem solving in the physical world. . . . but that's it.

i just came across a thread from 2002, (i'll link it here in the next post), about congregations in upstate ny, many that were with a vt circuit i was in for many years.
in there i wrote the following about a infamous pedophile case involving an elder, don nicholson.
here was part of one of my posts on that thread.
Nicholson was DF'd again within the past 9 months or so. Supposedly he was having an affair with an elder's wife (or pioneer? Not sure exactly on that detail - don't quote me on it.)
Anyway, he cheated on his wife and was DFd. He has to be in his late seventies at this point.
A sick fucker to the very end.
