For some reason, it reminds of a story I read recently about sick animal haters who killed their neighbors pets for the stupidest reasons (barking, urinating on car tires, etc.) and then placed the dead pet in an area of the neighborhood where they knew the pet's owner who eventually find it (while jogging, biking, etc.).

I mean no disrespect to the Heichel family in using this "pet analogy" (probably not the best example to use), but this raises a very important question:

What kind of God would allow the death of an innocent human being and then "guide" people to the dead body through divine intervention? ... a pretty sick one I'd say...

The Governing Body has NEVER claimed to be inspired

by Alfred in

there was a recent thread here which covered the subject of the gb claiming to be spirit directed (and not actually inspired by the holy spirit).

by now, most of us are quite aware that this is just a play with words to excuse themselves whenever one of their false doctrines is debunked (by someone using the bible or their own publications).

but when you think of it, spirit-directed is actually more presumptuous than spirit-inspired.. that being said, id really like to draw attention to the fact that the wt continuously claims that the governing body of jehovahs witnesses has never claimed to be inspired by god (through his holy spirit).

I wonder if the GB 3.0 will soon reclaim their prophet status now that they've dissed all of the non-Brooklyn annointed...

The WT proves again that it does not understand Child Psychology

by Christ Alone in

i posted this elsewhere, but wanted to create a thread about this specifically.

here is one way that i think the wt is absolutely wrong in it's advice on raising children:.

in the 1/13 awake they talk about mistakes that parents make with their children.

yet another failed attempt to create humble and docile drones for the 3rd overlapping generation.

Totally unaware of this. Can someone sum up what the 'Conti case' is?

I think the super-secret elder's manual "Shepherd the Flock" page 72 sums it up nicely.

It basically gives pedophiles a way out... With the 2-witness rule still in place, all the pedo has to do is deny, deny, deny and the matter will simply be "left in Jehovah's hands".

The annointed pioneer wife of the congo's PO... she would always say the strangest things... also, she would also try to sell exotic birds while out in Field Circus (from Monday thru Friday since she usually took Sat & Sun off)... if the householder took the rags and gave a generous contribution, that would be her green light to peddle her birds (but only when she was paired up with certain sisters who would get a cut of the action). One Saturday morning, I had to endure a tongue lashing from a householder who was pissed because this annointed pioneer sister sold her a sick bird and then refused to exchange it for a healthy bird... All I could do was stand there in embarrassment and apologize... This annointed pioneer sister died about 8 years ago. It's assumed that she died from an asthma attack while feeding her birds which she kept in one of her bedrooms.

Pop Quiz for the Watchtower Writing Department…

When was Frederick Franz baptized? April 4, 1914 or November 30, 1913?

Here’s a couple of quotes from the Watchtower magazine to help you determine the answer…

*** w875/1p.25LookingBackOver93YearsofLiving***

(as told by Frederick W. Franz)

On April 5, 1914, in Chicago, Illinois, I symbolized my consecration—as we used to call dedication—by water baptism.

*** w933/15RewardedWith“theCrownofLife”***

Brother Franz was born on September 12, 1893, in Covington, Kentucky. He came in touch with the truth through an older brother. At that time he was attending the University of Cincinnati, preparing to become a Presbyterian minister. Instead, he separated from the Presbyterian Church and became associated with the Bible Students, as Jehovah’s Witnesses were then called. He was baptized on November 30, 1913 , and the following year he left the university and entered the colporteur (pioneer) work.
