  WT could (but wont) do real training for elders, give guidelines on extended family. Then abstain from baptism of enfants.

  Will this get legs like the deaf masturbation and pillow stories?

  i have three questions.

  i would be most grateful if someone could respond for me, please.

  thank you.. 1. can jehovah's witnesses practice faith with the bible as a guide, or is it crucial to include the teachings of the watchtower society?

  Do you Attend University scholarly Lectures

  by peacefulpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we've been privileged to attend a number of outstanding lectures on a wide range of scientific topics, some by now quite famous researchers.

  for example, we attended a caltech discussion/lecture by svante paabo not long after his initial work on neanderthal dna was released and met him after the lecture.

  he wasn't a dynamic speaker but a humble man who obviously felt more comfortable in the lab than on the podium.

  Mostly read. I personally interested in anthropology. The migration, trade, mixing, displacing that occurred. Not the mainstream stuff. My hunch is there were polynesians, chinese, vikings, europeans, siberians, eskimos who knew and used the americas way before columbus. Since I am American clovis points in " wrong " places, Mandans, anasazi--- all intrigue me.

  Both the dating of man well before they were supposed to be in an area and the recorded displacement of peoples in recent times, and not by white settlers.

  Once I thought I could ask resurrected ones 😐

  I have seen snot nosed pre pubescent used. Also women despite their having smaller brains (per some GB clowns).

  I am unspiritual but am charitable. I can and have given good talks; quit when the convoluted new light became too much.

  GB finances nothing unless it is playing the stock/bond market. They propose things and ask for donations. Be it ramapo or new cars for COs or a warm bed and meal for a disaster victim it is the rank and file who is charitable

  The use of "Stumbled" as a Control Technique.

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i thought about this when i read the expression in another thread, "someone was stumbled", they would never tell you who the person was, and simply used it to control you, or it got worse, some times it was "you might stumble someone" .. who were these stumbling loons of which they spoke ?

  not only was it a control mechanism, it encouraged you to not be your real self, ever.. i liked the response of one of my jw relatives to this, where they expected him to change the person he was, he said "these people accusing me are not perfect are they ?

  no, well then, they cannot expect perfection from me".

  Some people are Karens looking for a reason to be stumbled. Hair color on women, beards, cars, leisure top the list. No mention that we might be stumbled by their going " beyond what is written".
