If they are the spirit directed organization of God why do they refer to other sources to prove their views? We know they have used many references out of context but even the ones they don't why do they name drop scholars or refer to encyclopedias if they have the truth and the sources they refer to are of the condemned world? I feel so stupid for not thinking about that before.

I love the hypocrisy...slamming other religions for not adhering to the bible.
by poopsiecakes inthis is from the january 2012 wt (members edition).
to this day, many of the clergy elevate the uninspired sayings of so-called church fathers to a plane higher than the word of god!
if you have ever discussed the trinity doctrine with a seminarian, you have likely noticed that.. .

A thought for those with believing partners.....
by snare&racket inwhen i was a single male jw i knew between age 22-25 that i had major concerns with the religion.
this had a big effect on my interaction with opp sex in the org.
whenever i got close to someone i would consider the inevitable time that i would have to face my concerns.

I don't know how long I can will be able to do this dance, but 14 years of marriage deserves a fight.

Thanks for your sympathies. I am sitting home alone today as my husband & children are staying at his parents tonight and having a family get together I wasn't invited to. We are trying to make our marriage work but I'm not sure how things will work out for us.

If the orders to cover it up came from the branch it looks like Viv Mouritz being transferred out of Australia is not just a coincidence.
I hope this sparks something. How long is the Watchtower going to continue getting away with all they do behind the scenes? -

To garyneal and Others, Evidence that the anointed remnants represented by the GB were selected in 1919.
by mankkeli in1st evidence: the release of loyal jews from exile, made possible by the fall of babylon, foreshadowed the release in 1919 of anointed christians from spiritual exile.
2nd evidence: that year marked the beginning of the period when the anointed remnants were released from a form of spiritual captivity to the ideas and practices of false religion.
although having rejected such false teachings as the trinity and the immortal soul, they were still tainted by babylonish practices.

Everytime I come across a JW & their circular reasoning I think of this song

Running a JW website without getting sued
by ekruks inhi guys, i want to setup a unique ex-jw/cult site, and i am wondering how you run this site without getting sued?
last thing i want is to have the stress of a court case that the jw volunteer-lawyers likely will win.
i'd like to keep a rather low profile.

Hopefully the SOPA laws don't get passed because it could affect many anti JW sites.
