Pretty sure recording/photographing/videoing or otherwise "spying on" coworkers at work without their knowledge is a "no-no" at many workplaces. Get in pretty big trouble doing that where I work.

So how exactly did this "new translation" come to be?
by sir82 ina normal person, upon hearing that a new (or revised) bible translation has been released, would have 2 questions spring to mind almost immediately:.
1) who did the work, and what are their credentials?.
2) what manuscripts is the work based on?.

What was claimed at the AM (and maybe someone else could back me on ths) was that the NWT was the Best Bible EVAHHHHHH because it was translated by ANNOINTED BROTHERS AT HEADQUARTERS ( i.e. THE FAITHFUL AND DISCREET SLAVE.) Yeah, Tyndale and King James and all those other bastards were fine, but only this translation was produced by the FDS.

Cherish Your Doubts
by TotallyADD inreopened mind and i came across this reading today and i would like to share it with all of you.
for me it was really eye opening and i hope this will help many here to understand why we take this stand against the wt.. cherish your doubts.
cherish your doubts, for doubt is the attendant of truth.. doubt is the key to the door of knowledge; it is the servant of discovery.. a belief which may not be questioned binds us to error, for there is incompleteness and imperfection in every belief.. doubt is the touchstone of truth; it is an acid which eats away the false.. let no one fear for the truth, that doubt may consume it; for doubt is a testing of belief.. the truth stands boldly and unafraid; it is not shaken by the testing.. for truth, if it be truth, arises from each testing stronger, more secure.. those that would silence doubt are filled with fear; their houses are built on shifting sands.. but those who fear not doubt, and know its use, are founded on rock.. they shall walk in the light of growing knowledge; the work of their hands shall endure.. therefore let us not fear doubt, but let us rejoice in its help.. it is to the wise as a staff to the blind; doubt is the attendant of truth.. robert t. weston.

jesus (apparently) in Old NWT rode into Jerusalem on an anal sphincter
by hamsterbait inthe (american) witless justified replacing the correct translation of ass with donkey, claiming we would never describe a happy brother as "gay".
an ass is a different animal from a donkey, making the nwt an inaccurate translation here.. are jdubs sooo filthy minded they think below the waist even in the context of christ riding into jerusalem?.
how do they translate numbers 31: 34: " 61 thousand asses" remember it is not 61 000 anuses.. .

Yess. . . . . . Was thinking this myself as I sat there yesterday. I do recall that a donkey and an ass are two different creatures entirely. . But not sure from where. . . .

Food for thought
by braincleaned inwhy is it said that we "inherited" sin?
we all know the old 'dented cake mold' illustration... but it doesn't follow logic.. .
it was obviously not obligatory that we "inherited" sin.

Yep, even god anwers to his own legal requirements - except when he decides to change them!
I've become more aware of how the society embraces the legalism of the bible's god. . . .
Shouldn't be surprising, though. Their second president was a lawyer and the whole damn thing is run by lawyers!

Numbers 31: 17, 18 Old New World Translation
17 And now kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has had intercourse with man by lying with a male. 18 And preserve alive for yourselves all the little ones among the women who have not known the act of lying with a male.
Numbers 31: 17, 18 New New World Translation
17 Now you should kill every male among the children and kill every woman who has had sexual relations with a man. 18 But you may keep alive all the young girls who have not had sexual relations with a man.
It's all so clear now!
What a blessing from Jehovah this new new translation is! -

5go's AGM summary and review
by 5go ini am writing this from memory i didn't ake notes so forgive me if it is out of order.. sumary.
it started off with the annoucement of a bible display (mueseum) being built that focuses on jehovah's name in the bible.
(i found it funny that few if any bible predate the 12th century because that's when the word jehovah was created bet that get's left out) the speaker went into the work done searching for various and the miracles donations and loans that happened to bring this about.

Particularly enjoyed the Apple-esque rollout of the new App, with wireless headset and all. That was pretty entertaining.

The Smoke and Mirrors of the Annual Meeting
by Billy the Ex-Bethelite inthe annual meeting seems to boil down to an opening talk about an "exciting new" bible museum and a closing talk about an "exciting new" new world translation.
sandwiched in between were the wt summary, a talk about indoctrinating the children fast/furious, and some "trip down memory lane.".
why would this "spiritual feast" seem to be anticlimactic?

Why can't Jehovah just get it right the first time?
If it takes Jehovah 1500+ years to get the only book that will lead mankind to salvation right, a hundred years of messianic-kingdom-thumb-twiddling is nuthin'!
