  so the carts i see all over the place, where do they get them?

  Shouldn't the literature carts be covered by insurance?

  by Isambard Crater in

  i mean, they're in a public place and may get blown into someone by the wind, perhaps hurting a child.

  surely because of their position, some kind of public liability insurance or similar should cover the literature carts/trolleys?

  other charities like oxfam require insurance, i'm pretty sure, or a licence..

  it struck me as funny that in order to sign in to this site we have to answer the question in the affirmative "i am not a robot.

  yet if we are a jw we are a robot after years of programming by the organisation!

  ironic isn't it.

  I can't see any means to edit it. There isn't an edit button or option beside the post. I am using my mobile phone.

  Please advise. Thanks.

  The "Imperfect Men" Argument

  by steve2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  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 Watchtower quoted earlier in this thread went on to say that the spiritual food provided was at times wrong. This did it for me. February 2017 - "Of course, Jesus did not tell us that his faithful slave would produce perfect spiritual food."

  We used to say about False Religion that if a person gave you a glass of water which was 99% safe would you drink it? Because the 1% poison could kill you.

  So if the spiritual food that the F&D slave is dishing out is imperfect, then the question is Should I be eating it? And by the same logical argument above, the answer is pretty clear.

  A New World is here, and YHWH's version is out of date

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  that highly emotive headline is just to have a wack at bible believers.

  but the world around is showing so many signs of change, that it's certainly looking like something new is here.. for example, driverless cars and buses are now possible.

  and its the buses that are already hitting the road.. watch this video, and say hello to the usa's olli:.

  Of course CT Russell thought that the modern inventions of his time were indicators of the Last Days, including the inventions which would reduce the role of human workers.

  And his interpretation of Nahum's prophecy as the coming of the American railways.
