  Financial Branch Meeting Video Leak

  by HiddenPimo in

  2. scandals

  remember last year the financial video was leaked and subsequently taken down.

  is there a copy anywhere available.

  my dad says he wants to see it with his own eyes since it says many things about why they really got rid of so many kingdom halls and simplification of literature (such as magazine reduction).. i miss the leaks like that because you can't argue with your own peoples material.

  Well - if you are an elder and some time has passed since the adulterous act occurred, it may suffice for 2 brothers to talk with you and you can stay an elder. This is a little known fact found in the Elders Manual

  Mom's breast feeding should be banned by JW's based on their blood policy. So Medical Professionals who are JW's should be held to that standard as well.

  The 10 worst Old Testament verses by Dan Barker

  My favorite part of this article is the quote found at the end of the article -

  A.A. Milne, author of Winnie the Pooh, said: "The Old Testament is responsible for more atheism, agnosticism, disbelief — call it what you will — than any book ever written; it has emptied more churches than all the counter-attractions of cinema, motor bicycle and golf course."
  

  What is the cover all answer for all of these accounts?

  We don't know why these things occurred, however, we can be sure that those who were destroyed were judged worthy of that fate by Jehovah who can read hearts and the others that were collateral damage, well the resurrection hope will fix that.

  I am not saying that there are not bits and pieces of good advice in the Bible that make for better humans when followed, however, what I am saying is that this picture sums up the reality of things...

  Are Christians to be Witnesses of Jesus or Jehovah?

  by blondie in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was doing research on another topic and this question came to mind.

  notice how the wts dances around the question below and then my comments about that and whether historically did the wts see isaiah as applying to all jws or only anointed members, spiritual israel (galatians 6:16)?.

  are christians to be witnesses of jesus or jehovah?.

  I think it is because people would have a hard time saying Jesus' Witnesses or Jesus's, and would be saying Jesuseeze's Witnesses...

  That whole apostrophes for possession is a tough doctrine to overcome...

  Has anyone on here used this forum to announce they were out and revealed their real name?

  by HiddenPimo in

  2. experiences

  just wondering if anyone has ever posted their personal information and have proof that the borg is watching and sent the gestapo to get them?.

  i will be announcing my resignation and da myself - and i am objectively looking at either doing it bud dwyer (not really like him but by extension) style at a meeting or an email blast or just giving a letter to the boe?.

  any advice is appreciated.

  Fundamental Memorial Scripture

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the talk outline issued the usual warning - only those mentioned in revelation 14:1 are allowed to partake of the bread & wine.. revelation 14:1 - then i saw, and look!

  the lamb standing on mount zion, and with him 144,000 who have his name and the name of his father written on their foreheads.

  for active/fading jw's - did your bible reasoning/logic/instincts tell you that the following interpretation makes sense, or did you simply surrender your thinking abilities to others who claimed to be better informed than you?.

  The memorial is so ritualistic that no one even thinks during the talk they just sit and zone out. Nobody stops and thinks about anything anymore and those that do are afraid to say anything about it due to fear.
