If you were put in charge of the Governing Body tomorrow...

by FusionTheism in

if you were somehow magically put in-charge of the governing body tomorrow, by jesus, with the rules being, you could not teach anything that would be considered outright apostasy and you could not teach anything that would be considered to cause doubt about god's existence... (so as not to arouse suspicion).

what "new light" or "clarified understandings" would you introduce first?.

and which later on?.

cappytan

I would start making it even more culty so that more people wake up. Publicly contradict myself. Start talking about how we should be ready to drink the Governinf Body's kool aid if we say so.

Start requiring women to wear burkas.

anything and everything to create doubt in the organization

What is their position on IVF?

by voodoo lady in

for example, if a married couple had fertility issues relating to the male partner's sperm, could they use a donor?.

is it frowned upon in a more general sense because people should be preaching rather than procreating?.

What the actual f-ck? That's porneia?

Bull. The scriptures quoted have nothing to do with porneia. A case could be made for uncleanness, but Jesus H Christ, what the hell is wrong with these people? AI isn't sex!

How could I have believed this Bullcrap as long as I did?

Cappytan do we know if this spying behaviour is encouraged by the GB?

I don't know.

A ministerial servant in a neighboring congregation logged into his Google account in the congregation computer (can't remember what for...probably to get a document off of Google Drive to print out or something).

Well, he forgot to log out and an elder went through all his e-mails, and his Google+ social media account.

The brother ended up getting removed as an MS because the elder found some things that weren't exemplary in there. (Pictures of him drinking beer, slightly off-color jokes, etc. It was all pretty tame stuff, though.)

That elder is now no longer an elder, although for completely unrelated reasons.

Cappytan, thanks, but won't that lose my data on other websites, too?

Yeah, it will. :-/

I noticed this to in the past although it hasn't really been an issue for me.

Try going to "settings" on your iPad, scroll down to "Safari", then scroll down to "Clear History and Website Data." This should manually clear the login session.

Convention Tomorrow...

by freemindfade in

kill me.... it's hard to put into words just how badly i do no want to sit through this 3 days of bull $hit.

i will appreciate any and all words of condolence, humorous, serious, or otherwise.

cappytan

Our convention this year is across the street from a golf course....very tempting.

Guns. Well said Mr President, if only your countrymen had the same courage to consider changing course.

by nicolaou in

ive had to make statements like this too many times.

communities like this have had to endure tragedies like this too many times.

once again, communities [were harmed] because someone who wanted to inflict harm had no problem getting their hands on a gun.. lets be clear: at some point, we as a country will have to reckon with the fact that this type of mass violence does not happen in other advanced countries.
