  The reason they need to put out a new Bible is to make money. Seven million of them needed for sure. And they can guilt people into actually paying for them, unlike the magazines.

  Lot's of talk on the July Watchtower?

  by noonehome in

  2. friends

  so i've heard lots of talk from within about the 'new light' in this watchtower...i'm yet to look at it in any detail.

  i'm kind of surprised actually...i first heard about it here before it was even available but close to the time it did come out people started bringing it up - even our co.. some say things like "have you heard about this?

  " or "big changes," or "allot of things they said we believed, i didn't realize,"(lots of that) or "brain-overload" or " too much information, but i've never felt more pumped up" or "it's soo exciting to see jehovah's spirit lead his organization..." or "it requires time to sink in, but it's a good feeling!

  Cognitive dissonance in action. They are saying the right things, trying to convince themselves. In reality, they are thinking: WTF?!

  Ray Franz repeat?

  by zound in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if one of the current governing body members pulled a ray franz and stepped down/got disfellowshipped then either wrote an expose or something else to go against the watchtower society - would they be forgiven and accepted by the ex-jw community?.

  considering they have ray's example behind them i find it more deplorable that they continue in their paths, and personally would find it hard, though not impossible to forgive them - but am interested in everyones opinion....

  Actually, Ray was a repeat of Olin Moyle with greater writing ability.

  Ray was a smart cookie. Now all they have left are stale, overlapping cookie crumbs.

  BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME.....let's rebuild!

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  okay we've all beat our chest, lamented and throttled the dead horse of aawa.. time to move on!.

  i suggest those of us on j-w.n who care about creating something the right way take the trouble to get the framework going.. let's do the grunt work and get the nattering, debates, naming and organizing already pre-approved so that "others" who have the talent, ability, motivation and resources can move in and turn the key!.

  because it was not done before.. there is more wisdom on this discussion board in our vast numbers than there could possibly be in a virtual boardroom with 8 people brain-storming.. that isn't an insult--it is just a statistical fact!.

  I have one plan to kick the Watchtower in the groin; yet do it on the downlow for personal reasons. This will be a rogue effort. The affect will be major.
