... the same ones who clicked the trailer several times each (which will mask the actual number of unique views)
Just like the WT bragging about the high number of visits to Jay Double You dot Org, when we all know that the figure is inflated due to the JDubs who click multiple times!
No go F--K OFF Booby!!!
i ask this question for the following reason.
i was sitting at the kingdom hall thinking about all the rules, procedures, policies, teachings that each member must follow ......or else!.
at the watchtower study we are reminded of the paradise earth where we will all be the same and happy.
Has Watchtower taken the joy out of 'the good news of the kingdom'
No. Cannot take something that never existed.
i was thinking about the jdub paradise this morning and all of the pictures in the watchtower company's literature illustrating the new system of things.. here is a partial list of what you see in the pictures:.
pet pandas, lions, elephants.
people always on a picnic with lots of beautiful fruits and vegetables.
Now if you are faithful thru that test you will get everlasting life.
Well at least until the NEXT test! I am pretty sure there will be some "nulite" about THAT!
just seen this announced on reddit:.
ken cook was announced today at morning worship as the new member of the governing body.
i dont recall him from the broadcasts, but he was formally a helper on the writing committee as per https://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/governing-body/.
The fruitcakes on jwtalk are all aflutter over this, of course.
That's my next stop. Of course I had to "inoculate" myself here first!
“if adam and eve hadn’t sinned they would have lived forever and we would all now be still living in paradise” is how watchtower theology goes, right.
(well not us personally, as history would have turned out completely differently and there would be different people on the planet, not us.
when you think about it you owe your very existence to the fact that they didn’t obey.
If Adam and Eve hadn’t sinned
If Adam and Eve hadn’t sinned there would be no need for Jesus to have died, no need for any JW's, no need for the Almighty Seven in New York (well no New York either) no door knockers, no JDubya TV,.....
it's increasingly obvious to me that part of the reason for the "new" rnwt of 2013 is to increase the authority of the organisation and the gb.
yes, the old one was becoming dated but they have taken opportunities (liberties?
) with translation to increase their control.. an obvious one is micah 6 v 8 where "to cherish loyalty" has replaced "and to love kindness".
Jesus own words...(Matthew 23:36) 36 Truly I say to YOU, All these things will come upon this generation.
The cross reference for generation in 1984 was (Exodus 20:5) . . bringing punishment for the error of fathers upon sons, upon the third generation and upon the fourth generation*,. . .and the footnote for generation there was...*Lit., “down to the third and fourth [generated] ones.”
Of course now that the generation that was alive in their precious 1914 has died off, and we are well on the way of the third generation since then, that little nugget had to be shit-canned! It is nowhere to be found in the Rnwt.

Can someone explain this madness?
Yes \/ \/ \/ \/ This.
WT leaders want to maintain stupid JW's so they won't think critically and are easier to control
one of the most common "defences" of jw organization is that "the brothers" are imperfect yet still strive to follow god's word.
"sure, they make mistakes," so the argument goes, "but so did god's people in the past, including in bible times.
" the key point is their readiness to keep studying god's word and learning from their mistakes.".
(the real definition of "morality", not the WTS corruption of "morality" as simply "sexual chastity")
Not to hijack a thread...I thought I was the only one who got that point.
the watchtower study is not real bible study.
it is a study to introduce wtbts beliefs,doctrines, and practices.
just think for a moment!
After all, the slave has shown itself to be faithful in doing its assigned work. For example, the Watchtower magazine has been published for some 130 years
Agreed. Their assigned work has been publishing a magazine, and now engaging in flipping real estate...and that is all!
so my cousin phoned and told me my jw sister was taken to hospital with chest pains and it may have been a slight heart attack or possibly she's starting with angina.
now as some of you know my sisters and brother have had little to do with me for 29 years.
we've met at funerals, or arranged them, but i just thought today what if she did die?
Don't get sidetracked, make a dig or bring religion into it. Just demonstrate how a normal person would act. That will be good for whoever reads it as they don't see it that often with the folks they spend time with. Kill em with kindness.
This /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ with a brief "I am sorry to hear about your hospitalization. I hope you get better soon."
