  Judicial meeting questions.

  2. experiences

  why do elders ask such perverted questions during judicial meetings?

  kinda creeped me out, actually creeped me out a lot.

  To be a little fair to the elders involved, they were more likely trying to determine if what you told them constituted "fornication" or "uncleanness" or "loose conduct" (now "brazenness"). The words have "overlapping" meaning (no pun intended). They have to do this so as to satisfy the legal (elder's) manual. It is somewhat an exercise in WT legalities.

  Usually at KS schools (and I think in the elder's book also) they are counseled to avoid asking detailed questions beyond what is necessary so as to determine the type of sin involved. But the definitions involved and the need impressed upon them to be correct in (WT imposed) detail and the fact that the CO will be reviewing the case within the next 6 months, all these things put pressure upon them in such a way that they often times go beyond what is seemly.

  If such things were not held in such secrecy, then human decency would probably prevail more often.

  1914 is the Key !

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i thought this deserved its own topic.

  it is a thought that occurred to me as i read the wt rag that i took to be polite.. it is the public one about the 4 horseman, and it struck me that they are still 100% reliant on their false 1914 doctrine to hang everything on.. if 1914 is proved wrong, what can the credibility of their doomsday message hang on ?.

  we all know how to disprove the old 2520 years nonsense, but they seem to at last be hiding that, and simply claiming that world events prove jesus slung the devil out of heaven in 1914.. so, what has that old devil done since 1914, 103 years ago ?.

  Hey Phizzy

  Someone mentioned GTR4 by Carl Olaf Jonsson. Here is an online copy. Scroll down a little for the chapter links.

  The thread I started here might provide a back door approach to 1914.

  The first 45 seconds of this video might also open some eyes to someone willing to think outside the WT box.

  Hey sfbayarea:

  If you would, keep us posted on what you find.

  I have a Win7 64 bit desktop. When I installed WTLib 2016 it installed and ran fine. But I had the auto update turned off. When I tried the manual update it downloaded the 178 mb package without a hitch. Then it asked me if I wanted to do the update. I said yes and it started to update. But then it stopped and said it ran into an unexpected problem. After this WTLib would no longer run. I would try to start it and it would say that it ran into an unexpected problem.

  So I uninstalled the program and tried to install from the DVD and the install stopped, saying there was an unexpected problem. I had to delete every Watchtower entry in the registry (with regedit) and then it would allow me to install again.

  Here is yet another link to WT pubs and stuff. I copied this from a link that member kairos made at the bottom of page 2 on this thread.

  I'm adding all these links here so as to have a sort of clearing house of links that I can go back to.

  There is a site with all the new stuff but it is bookmarked on my laptop which is unavailable to me at the moment. When I get home from work I will post it if has not already been by then.
