  Why two witnesses?

  by sleepy in

  1. jw

  two witnesses.

  theres much talk in the jw camp of the need for two witnesses to establish a matter, or prove an event is true or false.

  two points.one, this principle is found in the old testemant and in the jewish law.if this point is still to be held exactly then why not the many other laws of the isrealites?

  Why two witnesses?

  "Because it's written, that's why!"

  (from 'Life of Brian' - Brian's mother's answer to Brian asking why women aren't allowed to go to stonings)

  Just about sums up JW 'reasoning' - and we all know that the WT never 'goes beyond what is written' - TJ said so on Panorama, didn't he.....??

  A Message To Brooklyn

  in the wake of 'panorama', and in light of the mileage the wt has had out of the catholic church over the years, i flicked through the nwt i still have and found a little passage in romans (2v1-5,13) which seems deliciously appropriate (i'm quoting the rav here, as i'm in a public library and don't have my nwt with me): .

  "(1)therefore you are inexcusable, o man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge do the same things.

  (2) but we know that the judgment of god is according to truth against those who practise such things.

(2) But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practise such things. (3)And do you think this, O man, you who judge those who do such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgement of God? (4)Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and long-suffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? (5) But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God. (...13)(for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified.)["For there is no partiality with God," NWT].

  Hasta la vista, a$$holes...

  This, of course, being the same 'Satanic' media that they're only too happy to milk free publicity from when it comes to their conventions and quickbuilds...

  Forty-faced f***wits.

  Edited to add:

  "A long history of protecting children?" Oh, you mean like your blood policy that almost killed my mother and me in the womb? F*** you, you sick twisted f***ers!!!!

  Alternative lyrics to kingdom songs

  by Matty in

  1. social
  2. humour

  have you ever sung alternative lyrics to kingdom songs during a meeting or a convention?

  to qualify they have to sound very similar to the actual words so you can get away with it without too much attention being drawn to yourself.

  here are three examples, i'm sure there are many more, so please feel free to add!.

  Another couple of KM similarities...

  (1) "O come all you sons of Jehovah most high, who've given your hearts to your God..." - 'The Galaxy Song,' Monty Python

  (2) No.188 - Chorus: "Highly exalted, ne'er to be halted..." - 'Dambusters'

  (3) "Let the wicked forsake his evil way..." - 'Dad's Army' (UK posters only )

  What kind of music do you listen to?

  by Leander in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm a music junkie, i like pretty much all types of music.

  but in particular i would have to say jazz is my favorite, but not the watered down kenny g style of jazz.

  i prefer the straight ahead, hard bop type of jazz.. lately i've been really getting into psychedelia rock.

  LOL @ Matty

  My tastes are about as diverse as you could get - everything from classical to punk, depending on my mood - don't know what that says about my psychological makeup, LOL...

  All-time favourite bands: Kraftwerk (from whence my handle - taken from their 1986 'Electric Cafe' album), Devo, Stranglers, Cocteau Twins... currently getting into ambient at the moment, courtesy of an old college acquaintance who very kindly burns CDs for me

  Just one of the wonderful cultural freedoms to be savoured away from the BOrg - rock on....!
