  Marry in white - a worldly practice

  by menrov in

  2. beliefs

  i was not aware but just learned that is was queen victoria who was the first to get marries in white dress.

  .

  so, it is a worldly practice.... i assume jw's should reconsider whether they adopt / continue this worldly practice or keep away from it ... .

  Purple Triangle

  by apostatethunder in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  has anyone noticed that the colour purple comes from mixing red and blue, and that the red triangle meant political prisioner and the blue triangle meant foreigner?

  purple also comes from mixing pink and blue, foreign homosexual or sexual offender.

  that's how the nazis wieved the bible students.

  The Pact of Non Agression wasn't between Germany and the URSS, but between german national socialists and russian national socialists who seemed to have a common political enemy.

  Yellow comes from mixing red and green...

  You might want to check on that

  You are right, my mistake. Yellow is a primary color.

  Did You Have Good Relationships With The Elders?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my experience was that most jws wanted to have an elder “friend” just in case they got into any “trouble “.kinda like knowing that certain cop who might get you out of a jam.

  .

  of course there was another group who did everything they could to either kiss the elders’ ass or stonewall them anytime they came snooping around.. how did you and the “older men” get along?.

  I tried to avoid them as much as possible as in my experience and for what I observed with others, any time they got involved in anything things would quickly escalate from bad to worse.

  I had a couple of elder friends, one of them I've met before he was a MS, but they were just like any other brother to me.

  New Disfellowshipping Procedure

  by Anna Marina in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  disfellowship but never, ever announce it.. this new procedure is to be confirmed - anyone else come across it?.

  for this record these are jesus' actual instructions in relation to this matter:-.

  (matthew 18:15-17) 15 “moreover, if your brother commits a sin, go lay bare his fault between you and him alone.

  They could handle it in the same way they handle marking talks, informing the congregation without mentioning any names. Gossip will do the rest.

  Who says nobody can challenge the Governing Body? You can challenge them at any point, leave the organization and prove them wrong.

  Now, in the greater scheme of things, the illustration is about absolutism vs democracy and the teacher is about to take control of the class again but he doesn't want to take any responsibility for what happened in between.

  Latest awake on JW.org

  by aboveusonlysky in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the latest awake (no 3 2020) on jw.org is just breathtaking, it's about prejudice and gives the following 3 examples which i will one by one attemp to debunk.. awake - some employers have mistakenly believed that women are unqualified for scientific or technical jobs.. erm... women are not only forbidden from elder or m/s appointment, they're not even considered qualified enough to adjust the height of a brother's microphone, you were saying?.....

  awake - in medieval europe, jews were falsely accused of poisoning wells and spreading disease.

  during nazi rule, jews were again slandered.
