Yes, I'm catching up. I'm slow, always was slow to catch on.
And the reason this is confusing for me is that being a JW was NEVER for me, about "knowledge."
It was about where my loyalties went, which is more about "feelings" than knowledge.
years (many decades) ago, most jws knew what their religion taught.
they could go toe to toe with a minister or priest and make some good points.. i believe today's witness knows little about most of the convoluted teachings and revisions of the "truth".
yesteryear's witnesses got a 9/10.

I was a very, very ODD JW.
And nothing has changed, has it?
Ohh. I figured out the scoring system. JRK rates himself a 2.5 on a scale of 10, how knowledgeable he was.
I figure, that doesn't matter at all.
Knowledge isn't entirely the issue, is it?

JRK, would you like to explain, please?
Or is it a private joke?

Group-Think is an angelic phenomenon.
Their group-process becomes more important to them than the outcome of logic or reason.
All we can do for them is pray, that Truth is allowed to straighten them out.
this was some of the most blatant , aggressive , controlling information i've seen in awhile in the " witness only " version of the wt.
of course, it's always blatant, but the manner that was used in this article was so authoritative and demanding - it's apparent the wt society is losing members and they are amping up the control tactics to keep members trapped.
the article in discussion is on pg.
Yes, the outcome was known EVEN before the Watchtower ever wrote its articles.
I do believe the WT society realizes Witnesses were already dumbed down before they even started indoctrinating them . And then the WT society furthered the damage that the Rockefellers already started. Peace out, Mr. Flipper
i thought the topic of religion would be a great one for facebook.. wow, was i wrong about that.. http://www.facebook.com/pages/god-is-not-divided/112694992130588.
the only people are show any interest at all are catholics.. witnesses seem to avoid every venue where somebody else might show up.. zionists do likewise; but they have a different reason.. but, god yhvh is god of the whole earth, is my point.. anybody got any idea what i can do to stimulate godly conversation on my page?.
i'm tryin' to minister to the merely-confused as witnesses do out in service.. .
That's the way people are actually confronted with relationships, door-to-door.
I'll never forget SISTER Barbara Condon. She was so faithful; she came to my house for a whole year.
1964-1965.
She never asked for anything. All she ever seemed to want to do was get me to know Jehovah.
And I complied, happily. She BECAME my sister, ever after.

If you think that will accomplish anything, have at it.
But I doubt you'll improve anything that way, Jeff.

Yes, there is nothing anybody can do about how Facebook sloughs its own rules.
Let's just move on.

People with 5000 friends discover blocks.
And that's all I am going to say about it anymore.
