this is a facebook link and i just can't bring myself to dig into jw .
org and find it.there's no trick here, but i think you have to be logged in to see it.
if anyone could figure out how to repost this, that would be great.
"For the sake of argument. . ." There can be no "argument" with these self-appointed jokers interpretations of the Bible.
Now "let's assume. . ." Well we all know what happens when one does assume. It makes an ASS of U and ME.
Also what was with the explanation brother baldy gave of what "we" thought a generation was? That isn't what I remember being taught. I know, I know, don't try to make sense of non-sense.
for the last few days i've seen a nice green unread pm indicator even though there are no new messages (which is dreadfully sad).. not really a problem but thought it might be worth waving my arms and shouting about in a new topic.
.
and maybe get a few pity messages in my inbox .
not exactly the time or place to be pushing your religion!.

I am surprised they canceled meetings and field service.
I'm not sure the WTB&T$ cancelled them. I would place money on the French government having something to say about it with the declared state of national emergency though.
Meanwhile in any event why didn't they "trust God" and "obey God as ruler, rather than men"? Don't they really believe what the spout off about?
i was just thinking that the org has said lots of outrageous things over it's history and most jws just continue onward without a second thought.
so my question is what do you think would have to be said from the platform or wt to get people to get up and walk out immediately?
is it even possible?
All any statement needs is the preface comment of, "The SLAVE says. . ."
It will be swallowed whole.
so ofs got to comment again this morning and thought the comment might bring a smile to someone.the second half question on par.
15 was, "we cannot actually see jesus, sohow can we look intently at him?".
ofs commented, "of course, we cannot literally see jesus as peter did.
So OFS got to comment again this morning and thought the comment might bring a smile to someone.The second half question on par. 15 was, "We cannot actually see Jesus, so
how can we “look intently” at him?"
OFS commented, "Of course, we cannot literally see Jesus as Peter did. But Geoff Jackson described the governing body as Guardians Of Doctrine, and today we DO HAVE J Double You Dot Org and the J Double You TV where we can see and hear the governing body as they relay to us the faith strengthening words of the Guardians Of Doctrine."
And of course as always the heads were bobbing up and down like kids at the apple barrel on Halloween. Am I taking too many chances?
latest boe letter:.
october 22, 2015. to all bodies of eldersre: use of jw stream.
dear brothers:we are writing to inform you that arrangements are being made for video recordings ofcongregation meetings, circuit assemblies, and conventions to be uploaded to jw stream (accessibleat http://stream.jw.org) in various languages.
so--the truth now needs a password lol
And only available to the upper echelons who have kissed-ass enough to get in the elder/ms login sections it sounds like. So much for the poor, widows, orphans etc.
apparently, it's good news, everybody - mohammed emwazi (aka jihadi john) has been targeted by a us drone strike.
the location was in raqqa, syria, a few yards from isis hq, near a clock tower where crucifixions are carried out.
there are conflicting reports, some say he died instantly at 11:40pm yesterday, others say that he was badly injured and taken to a nearby hospital.. from what i've previously read about emwazi, he was apparently terrified of being targeted by drones - yesterday it seems his nightmare was made reality.
I am not sad at all that some evil asshole got hit by a drone strike.
People who would disagree with this statement likely would sit around and let a rabid dog bite them, and get angry at anyone who tried to put the rabid dog down.
i ask this because of the circumstances behind why they get married and who they get married by.
i know people say that they are really in love, they love jehovah, etc, but are these marriages even legit.
i've talked to older jw's sister who are now widowed, some of them say that they were trapped in a marriages.

If the government authority in any given locality says they are legitimate, they are.
i see years of acute economic crisis ahead for the w.t.
this is evident with letting go of " volunteer" bethalites throughout the world.
but my thread is on the consequences to the individual, and the organisation of letting " volunteer" bethalites go.. so what happens to the captive mind of the former bethalite when they are let go from bethel?
@username
Hit the wrong button. I am sorry, I meant to give a thumb up.
Wouldn't it be nice to place them on opposite sides so this doesn't happen so easily?
