  What Qualifications does Geoffrey Jackson have as a Translator of the Bible ? In any Capacity ?

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  geoffrey jackson left school at the age of 15 and began pioneering , he never attended a university ,never studied ancient greek ,hebrew or aramaic at any recognized teaching academy , he has no certificates or credentials / qualifications from any place of learning that is approved by a competent body of religious instruction .. and by his own words at the australian royal commission , under oath he stated that was his primary role as a translator of scripture into other languages .. a 15 year old drop out from school in australia is the chief/ prime translator of the bible for jehovah`s witnesses world wide in their many languages that they preach in .. it would be very interesting to see his report cards for those few years he did attend school .. is it just me , or does anybody else see that his qualifications don`t come up to scratch to be a translator of the old testament or the new testament scriptures , and be taken seriously as a translator of either , into any language.. if i am wrong anywhere in this post feel free to correct me .. smiddy.

  You can't get DF for associating with another DF person, just any privileges you have are removed.

  
  

  Don't believe that is true. Didn't Ray Franz get DF for associating with a DA person who also was his employer at the time?

  here's john oliver's take on how easy it is for religions to fleece vulnerable people in the us.

  i had a few good laughs, but it's seriously disturbing at the same time.

  okay, i know the royal commission hasn't started yet.

  but i'm confident enough that he will be telling some whoppers.

  so i thought i'd be the first to get a thread started for something that will begin... very soon now!.

  I have come to accept that I will die just as all before me. No one has ever cheated death.

  What I find more sobering is the fact that 200 years from now, likely not a single person living on this planet will know that I ever existed, yet people will still be talking about assholes like Rutherford.

  What is their official explanation for not allowing beards?

  by keyser soze in

  2. friends

  i ask because my gf, who knows all about my jw upbringing, convinced me to grow a goatee, just to see how it looks.

  we both decided it looked good so i decided to keep it.

  i tried to explain to her that as a jw, i wasn't allowed to grow one, but then drew a blank when she asked me why.

  We had black brothers who had shaved heads and nothing was said.

  As soon as a white brother decided to shave his head then there was some kind of problem.

  I suppose they associated it with the skin head movement.

  there is an unfulfilled prophecy in daniel about the last king that will be broken without human hand.

  the prophecy says he will be fierce-looking, deceptive, efficent in his doings, smart and causing ruin to many.

  and he will exalt himself.

  I grew a goatee while still an active JW. Many in the congregation said it looked good on me and didn't understand why they didn't allow it. Since I was not a MS or Elder, there was nothing said to me about it. I was in a liberal congregation.

  What I did notice was they would only schedule TM talks in the 3rd school down in the basement and when I tired to make arrangements to go out door to door with elders they would not show and make some arrangement ahead of time for me to work with someone else but never bothered to tell me in advance.

  Rutherford who sold encyclopedias door to door as a young man took the same model for creating his JW sales force to peddle his WT propaganda understood the image of first impression. Russel obviously had no issues with the beard.
