This is typical Rutherford fantasising, it doesn’t seem to have occurred to him that if you can float about like a feather, there will be no need for elevators or stairs. Mind you, negative gravity aeroplanes will still be quite useful for getting across continents in a hurry, although with eternity at your disposal, who needs to hurry?

Life as a Perfect Human in the New System of Things
by RubaDub ini have always wondered how basic things that we do to ourselves will be handled as "perfect" human beings.. i recall someone here had a quote from an old wt that said that if we fall off a roof or something that there will be some "force" to soften the fall and we will not be injured.. but, as a perfect human, if we travel to mexico and drink water from the tap, will we get the squirts, flying shits, montezuma's revenge, or whatever you wish to call it?
maybe we will be protected as perfect human beings and have colons that also are perfect.
but who knows.. just pondering these common things that we take for granted.. rub a dub.

Is this the one you're after? If so, it's from the Aug 15 2012 Watchtower. If not, perhaps you could provide some more information, the title perhaps, or at least what the article was about.

I read it that way because that’s how all modern translations render it. It’s about keeping the faith, not preaching it.
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. (NIV)
And let us hold unwaveringly to the hope that we confess, for the one who made the promise is trustworthy. (NET)
let’s hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful. (WEB)
We must hold tightly to the hope that we say is ours. After all, we can trust the one who made the agreement with us. (CEV)
Let’s hold on to the confession of our hope without wavering, because the one who made the promises is reliable. (CEB)

It's got nothing to do with making a declaration of any kind, either in a pulpit or door to door. It's telling Christians to hold fast to the hope they claim to have because Christ is faithful.

The NIV makes it pretty clear to me, "Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful."

Blood transfusion policy debunked with one KM and one scripture

Good logic Debunk, for there is no consistency with the WT stand on the blood issue. Nor is there any with the bible either. If the blood of an animal is so sacred and must be poured on the ground, what the hell is going on here?
“Slaughter it, take some of its blood and put it on the lobes of the right ears of Aaron and his sons, on the thumbs of their right hands, and on the big toes of their right feet. Then sprinkle blood against the altar on all sides.” (Ex 29:20)
And why doesn’t the WT ban the eating of fat?
“All the fat is the Lord's. This is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come, wherever you live: You must not eat any fat or any blood.” (Lev 3:16-17) -

I am a proud Jehovah's Witness Defender
by Matthew Jefferson inmy name is matthew j and i have just ended my study with the jehovah's witnesses.
no, i did not stop studying because i believe the jehovah's witnesses are a 'cult', i left due to the minor beliefs that i hold that remain separate from the organization.
i called my elder who is still an amazing man and great counselor, affirming that i do not wish to continue my studying.

Matthew, I’d like to give you the benefit of the doubt, but the fact that you have not come to the defence of any of the criticisms voiced here, suggests to me that you are either;
1) A troll, in which case piss off.
2) Struggling to find evidence for your defence, in which case keep trying, but let us know your findings.
3) Suddenly realised, from these criticisms, that the Watchtower is indefensible, in which case, be courageous and let us know.
