I recall in the 80ās some had issues with Gloria Estefan and Barry Manalo just because they rejected the watchtower teachings. Most still used their music anyway at āgatheringsā

Scriptures That Donāt Fit WT Theology
by Sea Breeze inhereās a couple good ones: a. jesus said, ācome to me and i will give you restā.. why did jesus command us to go to him and not jehovah?.

Adding the simple word āotherā solves this translation obstacle, so after 60+ years with with a parenthesis around this word, the unknown translation committee boldly removed this parenthesis, hoping no one would notice.

ChatGPT analysis - Pure Worship
by Jeffro ini provided chatgpt the text of the introductory āletterā in pure worship, without any commentary to affect the context, and asked it to point out any errors, fallacies or other issuesā¦.
as an ai language model, i strive to be neutral and provide information without bias.
however, there are a few things in the text that could be considered fallacies or issues, such as:1. appeal to emotion: the text uses emotional language such as "thrilled" and "exciting" to describe the reaction of those who received the book.

Joined an online meeting incognito
by joey jojo ingot a link for a zoom meeting and thought id share my experience about the mid-week meeting.. guessing about 100 - 120 in cong.. 50 on zoom, only 8 with cameras on - all elderly.
watching from a detached point of view it's so obvious at how it is nothing but a glorified sales meeting, all designed to promote the org.
inspirational videos about how everyone can/ should do more to help with projects, in particular how to look after the kingdom hall, complete with bar charts showing levels of achievement to aspire to.. interestingly, tonights book study is about alcohol..

Meetings are now mostly just a boasting session that is so repetitive, that more and more seem to be just Lip singing their way to paradise. The meetings are so routine,most are losing their misguided zeal to show up, and zoom is their excuse to stay home and connect but just zone out. Zoom is a boon to the elderly, and Iām guessing also to a few to enjoy psalms 104:15 to the fullest.

Some thoughts on the message of doom
by JeffT inone of the recent threads on the talk about the hailstone message got me to thinking.
the problem with putting out a message like that is what to do when nothing happens.
i have to think that somebody will be asking that question.

The latest fabrication is about floods in Brazil where large groups of brothers and sisters clean up their own individual homes. As a neighbor watches she comments where did all these helpers come from, and she was told from the local KH. She replied never has anyone from her church come over to help clean her house. These stories always throw mud at other religions, making Jehovah s witnesses appear superior.
