i can't recall the word that describes a group that keeps to itself like the witnesses do.
i thought it was "insular" but i don't think that's the one i'm looking for after reading the definition.
i remember an elder using the word "clannish" and that has the proper definition but it reminds me of a group of elves.
Delusional is my best opinion.
Because (including me for a long time) they are completely ok with accepting anything the WT says as fact without any evidence scriptural or otherwise to back it up. Not only that - they do not view as credible ANY outside information, whether from the Medical community, or Science, or Archaeology, or History, or other Religious scholars.
Reality is aborted for the comforting thought that the GB are always right no matter what.

does anyone have any information on jwleaks.org?
it is still down.
does anyone have any contact with them?.
as many are aware, the society automatically downloads a years worth of programs on a 32 gb tablet --or whatever you have -- using up space.... without permissions i may add... yet i cant get rid of the old copies on there, does anyone know how to delete them - i have downloaded them then clicked on the delete button, away it goes from the download page but when i go back to the original page that the download comes from, it is still there to download again... so i repeat the process and same thing happens....... .
help!!!

Are you using the JW app? You have to generally download any book video or magazine - and its very easy to delete what you want. If you are using the browser - nothing downloads automatically?
Not sure what you could be doing.
i guess we have to assume that jesus was circumcised on the 8th day but what about adam?
he was "perfect", so did he have the weenie cut or not?.
i would like to bring this question up at a "get-together".. rub a dub .
the organization has many problems.
certain doctrines are problematic.
the men who run the organizaion have issues.
was a man made date when jesus came and that a generation is not 102 plus years.. why not say something like this.when the disciples asked jesus for a sign and the end of the age.jesus gave them a composite sign and said all these things will take place.when-before the people now living(at the end of the age which no one knows)have all died..
the world is filled with superstitious people.
and some of the most superstitious are jehovah's witnesses.. remember, i didn't say they alone are the most superstitious, nor did i say they are on an island.
how do we know that this is true?
ah just more evidence of the work "speeding up during the time of the end".
i helped build this hall.
was appointed as an ms & elder there.

i know this sounds like a ridiculous question but i was talking with my mom in the car today and of course we got on the topic of getting babtized again.
she told me that jehovah holds me accountable for my sins regardless of wether i am babtized or not so i have no reason to be holding back because it won't change anything.
my parents are the type of super strict jw who will shun you just for not being a witness.
