Has anyone seen this? The old guys in NY give their thoughts on IN Vitro fertilization

by wha happened? in

so giving your fertilized egg to a surrogate is pornia.

was actually looking into this and so did a search to see what was already talked about, found the below quote on another thread after finding it on the cd for myself...stunning to me as i still thought of neanderthal man as a hairy monkey man or a complete fabrication, and here is what appears to be a twist from the wt that i never realized all my years in.. what i found most interesting was the bolded section (by me).

Just remember that science has no need to bend the truth or cover up the facts. Cults on the other hand have to censor, trick, punish and forbide info in order to protect a carefully concieved lie.

Kathryn Schulz: On being wrong

i've never heard a more appropriate ted talk for jw's to take to heart than this one.

"most of us will do anything to avoid being wrong.

but what if we're wrong about that?

thecrushed

It's very intellectually deadening to ever think that you have all the answers. I used to hear JW's say that worldy's wouldn't accept the "truth" because they couldn't accept a simple explanation. Life is complex and therefore has no catch all answer period!

" Most of us will do anything to avoid being wrong. But what if we're wrong about that? "Wrongologist" Kathryn Schulz makes a compelling case for not just admitting but embracing our fallibility." - kathryn schulz

Preaching Cult Awareness in their territories

by Emery in

i have been wondering if persons here have ever worked the same territories jws work to create awareness to house holders?

for instance, producing custom pamplets or tracts discussing the culture and demands of being a jehovahs witness.

the doctrines and history explained in a fatual manner so that people can weigh the pros and the cons prior to accepting a bible study?

thecrushed

I'd say as long as its factual info that they can't say much right?

WELL DONE!!! That really got my blood pumping at the outro! They are like a vicious cornered animal at this point just biting and snapping at everything. Keep them on the defensive because the more they use the heavy handed measures the more empty their talk about Love and Unity becomes!!!! HOOOORAAAAYY!!!!!
