If the society were a person in pre-Christian times living in the land of Isreal he (or she) could get stoned as a false prophet as per the command in Deuteronomy.

11If the "society" were a person, he would be disfellowshipped!
by stuckinarut2 inthat realisation struck me the other day!.
if the society was an individual person, he would be disfellowshipped!
well, he has had a history of telling mistruths, half truths and distortions of facts.

How arrogant! "Please convey the love of the GB?" How about the love of Jesus?
Awww...that's so cute. You think Jesus has something to do with this event. :-)

if you haven't yet watched the feb2017 broadcast, strap yourself in for a ride!!.

I just had the joy of watching this last night with my still in wife.
MAYBE in a sense they are telling the truth when they say it's all about free choice.
Everything they say can be taken as suggestions. If we choose to OBEY they're suggestions it is free will to an extent.
When we wake up to the fact that they are a crock, we no longer choose to listen to their stupid suggestions.
Of course our actions will have an effect, and that effect may be that we are marked or shunned for not following their "suggestions". Of course everyone who follows the WTs suggestions and shuns us is following their free will and making a choice to do it.
Me I think I am going to use my free will as suggested in the video. I am going to consider bible principles as it said we should.
I see nothing about shunning weak ones, I see nothing about having friends and associating with people who are Christians of a different faith. As a matter of fact I see LOTS of mentions of loving our neighbors and praying for our enemies and Jesus himself ate meals with prostitutes and tax collectors.
If some choose to shun or mark me, I will pray for their forgiveness for they know not what they do and I will get on with my life.

There was some local grumbling about his having allegedly filmed a Marlboro cigarette commercial (in fairness, I don't know if he actually did), but again, the locals were advised to give him a pass.
Would that be a big deal?
The prohibition on tobacco didn't happen until 1972ish no?

Sparlock is making his rounds again
by stillin ini was at the meeting last night and the dreadful video about caleb and sparlock was forced upon the audience.
honestly, i had forgotten how bad it was.
the mother's manipulative over-reaction and caleb's acceptance that his toy was evil.

The mother asked, "Who likes magic, Jehovah or Satan?"
So does magic really exist?
Does Jah really hate it? Is there biblical proof in this video? No? Hmmmm
The title of the part is, "Become Jehovah’s Friend—Obey Jehovah".
Nope. No brain washing bull shite here.

one thing about all these pedophiles cases i cant understand is..
by nowwhat? inas a parent, if it was my kid i would go straight to the police and or beat the living shit out of the perpetrator.
were all these parents of the victims brain dead or that indoctrinated?.

NikL
You and me both nowwhat?.
However, the witnesses are specifically told not to involve police because "it would bring reproach on gods organization".
My wife and I were foster parents back in the 80s and we ended up with a couple of physically abused witness kids. We saw it first hand.
My wife witnesses sexual abuse of a friend of hers when she was a little girl and NOTHING ever came of it even though she told her parents. The elders were involved but that's as far as she knows. She was only 10 or so.
So, in answer to your question, indoctrination to the point that your brain dies making you brain dead.

What a great voice.

Has anyone else seen this video on JW Broadcasting?
by NikL inso i was checking out the website to see what the february broadcast was all about before i watched it with my jw wife.. on the front page was this video.... https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodbible/pub-jwbai_201607_1_video.
i watched it and pretended i had never been a jw.. if you pretend you don't understand their particular language it makes for a interesting (if not vague) watch.. btw i've seen several of the actors before.
jw version of movie stars?
