  what is the difference (if any) between being guided by holy spirit and being inspired by holy spirit?

  is it just semantics?.

  The 'IN' families

  by punkofnice in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  one thing i don't miss about being a jobo, is those families that ruled the congregations.. i've seen how the elders protected their own using our old friend, nepotism.. eg.

  the son of an elder that stole a car and was prosecuted but 'let off' because it was kept secret and all his relatives were elders in the same congregation.

  it certainly went on when i was an elder but i wasn't one of the 'in' crowd.

  I don't think you have the full story. Unless you were on the Judicial Committee there is no way you could. Confidentiality is of paramount importance, and he cannot foll Jehovah's Holy Spirit. No one can!

  First of all, the word is FOOL (you should know that from looking in the mirror!) not FOLL.

  And second, if someone claims there is not nepotism in congregations they are either naive, or they are a liar! Which are you?

  JWTALK Bob Comes Up With A Classic

  by AverageJoe1 in

  the guy everyone loves to hate, bob, has come up with a classic:.

  redefining the concept of "critical thinking" when it comes to jws.. he quite correctly states the need to use critical thinking when reading the bible, yet we all know that pimi jws don't have the first clue what "critical thinking" really means, especially on a thread fawning over how great the gb are and guessing who will be presenting the next jwb!.

  the link to the actual comment is:.

  Never thought i'd say this, but i think i hate Bob just as much as Tony Morris.

  Bob, JWHess, and Trottigy all should be dropped out of an airplane at 30,000 feet with only two chutes and let them figure out who would sacrifice themselves for the other two.

  My thoughts exactly. Why is that tub-o-blubber not booted for gluttony? He surely cannot have a genuine metabolic disorder!

  Spiritual "Protection" - a Menace on Psychological Development

  by Wake Me Up Before You Jo-Ho in

  not quite a week ago, @lost in the fog created a thread entitled: do you have this illness?.

  https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5187824140681216/do-you-have-this-illness.

  in my year of being on this forum, i have browsed many a disillusioned thread of ex-jehovah’s witnesses expressing similar symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder when detailing their awakening - my own story included.

  Jehovah’s Witnesses have been groomed to possess inherently lazy thinking abilities.

  So very true! I saw first hand evidence of that over on another site where the Dubbies spout off mindless drivel about everything they are told with never a thought about it. And anyone that expresses a different thought is pretty well dog-piled on. Even a very cautiously worded comment about being "confused" by the pretzel logic of the overlapping generation get private P.M.s galore. "Brother, you must not think so much! The governing body has it right. We just need to wait on Jehovha!"

  Of course, none of them had ever been on a horse.

  Or had to clean up behind it! Sounds like their paradise would be pretty shitty!

  The urban legends we heard as JWs!

  2. experiences

  how often have we heard some sort of sensationalist urban legend as jws?.

  here is an example i was told as a kid:.

  the experience of a sister who knocked on a door and was greeted by a big fierce looking man- intimidating and mean.

  The one I heard was about a C.O. who in the early 1970's was on his first tour of duty in Kentucky (USA). He stopped in a barber shop in some out of the way Holler for a haircut when he very first arrived. When he was comfortably seated the barber's voice changed to something out of The Exorcist and the barber growled, "You killed our children at the flood, now we are going after your children!" The claim was that the barber did not know him, or that he was a JDub. So how could the barber make that comment except by the aid of demunz.

  Does anyone know of this guy, or agree with his statements on racial differences in IQ?

  by Sugar Shane in

  2. beliefs

  here are some quotes by the guy, from his youtube channel.

  his name is stefan molyneux, and he’s apparently popular among the alt-right crowd.

  he’s also widely quoted on these discussion boards, by certain ex-jws, who use him to help promote their political views.

  I have know some very high I.Q. people in my life up to this point, however with only one or two exceptions they have been some of the most stupid people when it comes to everyday, practical life smarts. Just sayin'.
