  Beard quote from WT 1975

  by joey jojo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  extreme hair styles can easily lead one into a trap of the devil also, and cause others to stumble.

  for example, a young man in the united states was making fine progress in his study of the bible, and he was moved to share with an experienced witness in preaching to others about the good things he was learning from the bible.

  from early youth he had let his beard grow, and since some in the business community wore beards, he felt that his wearing one in preaching to others would be acceptable generally.

  Back in the day, we all heard that story. Whether it actually happened, of course, is another matter entirely.

  If W. Schnell is to be believed (as he claims in 30 Years a Watchtower Slave) this thing they had about beards was all just a power trip. Many had taken to imitating CT Russell by wearing a “goatee” type beard. After Russell’s death Boozerford Rutherford forbade beards, just to remind the rank-and-file that he was now running the show.

  “Parroting Russian propaganda”.

  Never underestimate Russian propaganda, which they use as if it were another branch of their armed services. The former KGB used to allocate three quarters of its entire budget, not to espionage, but to propaganda. From the former Soviet Union, Russia has inherited a highly effective propaganda machine.

  i am not aware of how many of you are familiar with the danish case of a jehovah's witness who was hospitalized after a tragic accident where he fell several floors from a scaffolding where he was working.. the patient was admitted to the intensive care unit and was conscious (albeit somewhat confused) for the first three weeks.

  This is not terribly different from a first-aid situation.

  If the patient is conscious, then the first aider must obtain the injured person's consent to give treatment. However, if the casualty is unconscious, then the situation of "implied consent" becomes applicable - in which case first aid treatment may be given without obtaining the consent of the patient.

  Creation, Not Evolution Best Explains Genetics

  evolutionists can change their model, and invent stories whenever they want to accomodate data.

  biblical literalists are stuck with just one model, one account, and are unable to change it.

  Even if he does (which I doubt), it won’t be the end of the matter. A bit like a game of “Whack a Mole”, there will be scores there to take his place.

  An argument which has been going on now for over 1500 years is unlikely to be settled anytime soon!

  Unlocking Hidden Meanings: A Fresh Look at the Creation of Eve

  hello!i am an independent scholar and researcher with a deep curiosity for ancient cultures and texts.

  i do not adhere to any religious tradition, but my passion for understanding the mysteries of our past has led me to explore biblical stories in depth.

  my particular interest lies in the original hebrew text of the bible, which i find fascinating both as literature and as a source of historical riddles.i recently completed a study that might change the way you perceive some well-known biblical stories.

  Kaleb,

  Thanks as always for your input. It is always interesting to hear things from a Jewish point of view. A point of view, which, I hasten to add, should always be considered - as after all, it was your people who compiled the writings of the Old Testament. (Something, which, in the “Fog of War”, seems to have completely lost sight of!)

  when i grew up in the cult they had a real sense of urgency and would do an hour minimum, these days it’s not even ten mins before coffee break.. same goes for everything else, it’s half hearted .
