GB: "We don't know if Jehovah wants us to build new headquarters, but we're doing it anyway..."
by cedars inthe latest august 15th watchtower study edition features an interesting review of the society's annual meeting.. one comment struck me as evidence that the governing body isn't quite as "discreet" as it claims.. here is what the article said:.
"there are plans to develop a 248-acre (100 ha) property at warwick.
'although we are not yet certain of jehovahs will regarding warwick,' said brother pierce, 'we are proceeding to develop the site with the intention of relocating the world headquarters of jehovahs witnesses there.

Relocating a billion dollar printing and real estate enterprise's headquarters is pretty darn big decision to make without knowing whether The Boss is ok with it or not. Gotta love it.

You & Your Family Will Be Harmed If You Dont Obey The FDS 8/15/12 WT
by yourmomma inhere is a quote from the 8/15/12 watchtower study simplified edition that just was posted on jw.org.. on page 13 paragraph 12 it says "those who ignore the warnings from the faithful and discreet slave will harm themselves and those they love.".
also, another doozy is earlier on paragraph it likens those who have not read social networking articles from the faithful slave before using, "is like taking a powerful medicine without first reading the warning on the bottle.".
im not even done reading this whole magazine yet, but i thought i'd share these insane comments.

I wonder if this latest bit is a follow up on how they're interpreting Jesus parable of the sheep and goats and how each will be judged according to their treatment of His' brothers here on the earth in harmony with Matt 25:34-46? The March study article states that the Other Sheep's "salvation is dependent upon their active support of Christ's annointed brothers still on earth." I don't recall the language ever being so direct and forward. So now it's deeper than a Christian potentially harm themselves with unnecessary pains similar to Israel not following Jehovah's laws which were meant to benefit them. It's deeper in the sense that if they don't support the Slave Class, they're bringing themselves into conflict with God directly, harming their relationship with Him. Heck, the more I think about it, this statement to some degree invalidates Christ's sacrifice.

LOL. On the bright side of things, the average elder can probably beat the snot out of the average priest. Sam Herd would whoop Cardinal Dolan's azz.

The best ex-JW books - and what made them unique...
by cedars inat some point in my life, i would really like to write a book about my jw experience and jw teachings in general.
however, if i did, i would preferably like to write from a unique angle that makes the book a little different from the many others out there.
i can imagine some being quite self-indulgent, and i would want to avoid that wherever possible.. i must confess, due to a variety of circumstances i am not well read when it comes to all the various ex-jw books out there.

Wanted to mention The Orwellian World of Jehovah's Witnesses, although I've never read it as it's long out of print and I haven't been able to procure a PDF copy of it anywhere. Wanted to mention it simply on the strength of Orwell's 1984. Even DJEggnog would read that book and see the similarities. With that said I can only imagine how good TOWOJW is.

In Search of Christian Freedom by Ray Franz is my personal favorite. His two books remind me of a musician's debut and follow up album. COC was like the eye opener, the artist you've got to watch out for. It exposed the inner workings of a secret world that only a few have access too. By him putting that book out, he made it so that thousands are aware that there's nothing particulary special about this organization and especially the men running it. I know people who absolutely worship the GB, and I can say thanks to him and others such as can be found on this site, I'm capable of looking at the GB for what it actually is.....several old white dudes with a token black who's decisions wreak havok unnecessarily on people's lives. COC really tugs at the emotions of the reader.
In Search of Christian Freedom though, is like the follow up album, and while it doesn't tug at the heart of the reader as the predecessor, it appeals to the logic and reasoning of the honest reader. It completely decimates any case made for a Governing Body, or Christian Legalism which is straining the gnat on steroids, the blood policy which is legalism causing unnecessary death, shunning which destroys families and has caused suicides, amongst a ton of other topics. Granted these issues are emotional in nature, but when it comes to those born into the religion, it takes scriptural refutation to really flip the WT's ingrained teaches upside down, and Franz accomplished that with his second book.
The Gentile Times reconsidered at times gives me a headache, but the basics of his argument can't be refuted. I've been meaning to get his second book but haven't got around to it. I'm about done with Kyria Abrams book, and it's a pretty good read so far. A little heavy on pop culture analogies but so far a good book none the less.
