peacefulpete,they weren't deferring to...."experts and researchers" when the CO in a talk said you had to have faith in Jehovah, and if you did you had to have faith in the GB and you had to take the vx if able. Talk about spinning threads into a narrative to sell-that happened several months on end in the monthly updates.

the article says personal items were labeled to give to specific people...that doesn't sound like a forced thing. Sounds like they planned to die. I figured out what PID stands for: Public Information Desk. ( did a search in JW.org to learn that )

I remember 1975, because I was telling a person I was working for that the world was going to end in 1975. Ray Franz was barely spoken of among any of us, but if you heard it, it was in a bad light, so you avoided the man. I remember the generation change...not once, but twice: it went from being of understanding age in 1914 from being born in 1914, then to the overlapping generation.

by peacefulpete ina lot of ink has been spilled on the topic of the cross.
the wt felt it had uncovered some deep conspiracy when they found a number of words were used to describe how jesus was understood to have been killed.
there was an extensive thread many years ago that in short strongly supports the conclusion that at least some nt writers envisioned a cross, while others had a tree in mind.

"and use of the cross and crown lapel pin as an identifier." my understanding it is masonic.

peacefulpete, I am inclined to look at various sides of an issue before I form conclusions. I wasn't always this way...but then the internet wasn't available. Do you consider the JWs a reputable source? I once did, thinking everything they published had been fact checked by people who were honest...
The Bible says to make sure of all things and to hold to that which is fine...So you have to look at other sources and some aren't so reliable...I guess "reputable sources" are subjective-what You may consider to be reputable, I may not,, so if that case I could write that you haven't learned the lesson.
Some things are just considered to be considered-maybe true, maybe not...but it makes you wonder: cases in point, I just posted a couple of links to videos to be considered...you choose the truth of them.(some of the evidence is compelling )

Elders told to befriend young ones.
by LostintheFog1999 insomeone on this forum kindly posted a link to the program of the current elders' training schools taking place.. i was just looking at it and thought that the part i have highlighted looks innocent enough unless the elder has an overfondness for young ones.. if he is spending too much time with the younger ones he can say, with hand on his heart, i am simply following through on the latest direction from the organisation about befriending, training, and mentoring the young.

I knew of this situation that happened many years ago. ( told to me by the family members) A married circuit overseer would stay at a sister's home. She had 3 daughters and one son. When the CO and the wife would stay there, the wife shared room with the girls and the CO with the young man. Also, the young man was invited to go along ( seems like to maybe travel with...can't ask now as I am a pariah!) with the CO one summer if I recall correctly. The mother of the young man was happy this CO was paying attention to her son as she was a widow...the oldest of the 4 kids was 7 when the dad was killed in the Korean War -that helps with the dates. He grew up without a father and that always bothered him. He also grew up Bi-polar and Gay. He was disfellowshipped for a while for his orientation, but got reinstated. He was a very mixed up and sweet soul. He wasn't allowed a funeral at the KH because of his many issues...He would cry and say, " All I ever wanted to do was serve Jehovah." ( the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak )
It wasn't only the boy who was prey for sexual predators in the JW, but also the girls. The mother ended up moving away from one town/congregation to another because someone in the congregation was Handling the girls and no one would believe it, so the Mom took the family away from that scene.

it seems to me the height of hypocrisy that the JW should post how to avoid misinformation, and to make sure of all things....they are the publishers of misinformation and don't want you to fact check them. ( off with your heads!)
