anybody have any ideas where they are going with the "new light" they have been pushing last week and this week?
for instance in this weeks study article one section reads:.
in years gone by, we believed that jehovah became displeased with his people because they did not have a zealous share in the preaching work during world war i. we concluded that for this reason, jehovah allowed babylon the great to take them captive for a short time.
People...they just make it up as they go along...they can say anything they want to mould the bible around their history...and change the meaning of their history if they want.
It's a cult...it needs to survive hence it will always change things to make themselves look better.
so, you left because of a bad example(s).. why all the whining?
nothing better to do with your time?.
you at least know far more about the bible than any church-goer?.
Hang on folks...popcorn is now warm...right, I'm ready...go...I love these threads.
EDIT....damn I was too late...he is gone.
but pretty much all of them are now dead.
and so are billions of others.
so, god doesn't desire any to be destroyed but desires all to attain to repentance?
Didn't they change it to "Millions now living MAY never die"...
And in that swoop it makes it all ok...

Russia ban them...its Gog starting his attack folks...UN will get involved...its the start of the Great Tribulation...who is laughing now eh?
You all thought that bunker video was funny, not so funny now is it? Sorry, no room for you now...you are all bird food...
say what they like, but it's a definite withdrawal of pressure.
the commission is slow, needlessly protracted and inconsiderate of the extent to which ongoing damage is being carried out.. scrap it.

I think it is the case that the Charity Commission simply got the documents from the WTBTS that they required, nothing more.
my wife has been trying to convince me that the organization is hinting at the possibility of making some older sisters ministerial servants.
she is awake to a lot of the false doctrines, but is still clinging to the hope that the org may become more progressive in the future.
anyone else pick up on this?
It's in scripture that a woman cannot teach...so no I can't see it happening.
i have been doing research on the arc as some people on here have suggested.
i find it interesting on the case file analysis some of the findings.
it looks like queensland and new south wales had the biggest problems with this.
Yes, Notsurewheretogo. Just because you don't agree that watchtower is responsible for the actions of a third party they are defending them. Me, a number of lawyers and about a dozen District and Circuit Court judges all fall under that category of recognizing that one cannot control what another person does. That makes all of those judges apologists as well. Even the Conti appeals court ruled that, the actions that Kendrick did to Candace in his own time was not the fault of Watchtower, the only negligence was the assigning of Kendrick to work with Candance in an official activity of the congregation.
I've sat, as an elder, with a child in the congregation who was abused, I have seen first hand what it does to them...I have seen the unrepentant abuser get DF, then come back a year later with nothing mentioned to the police to "protect God's organisation".
The WT policies 100% fostered the environment where this abuse occurred and it is happening all over the world in congregations. It could be minimized hugely if the WT had proper policies on it.
If you were in my shoes and saw the victims as real people then you would not posting your crap like you are.

Still trying to defend the WT on their policy on child abuse Richard...it is as clear as day you are still in.
Yep, SBF much to his displeasure :D
Ha...
i think everyone here is under the impression that i am a watchtower sympathizer, i am not.
i just like facts and when people say things, which are their opinions but that facts point out as not being true, than that is when i get so motivated to make a comment.
i have read posts here, listened to six screens and read jwsurvey and seen things that people say, which are opinion, but pass them off as fact.. there are legitimate things that people on here and former jws have concerns over without manipulating what is said or trying to pass off opinion as a fact.
Richard created a thread asking why everyone hates the WT because of them not reporting child abuse in certain situations and tries to back it up with facts.
When pointed out that the WT policies creates an environment where child abusers can carry out their desires and get away with it and the abject failure of the WT to help victims, protect children and deal properly with the offender and he is not a WT sympathizer?
Sorry but that is utter bull.
