Great work blondie. I think they went right after some of your favourite flip/flops, the sodom/gomorrah resurrection doctrines. Its almost like they are answering your weekly reviews - a rebuttal. Maybe someone here dropped a request in the society's suggestion box :-)
Notice how much time and space is spent on justifying their own hierchy of power and authority.
then a little orwellian history lesson to give the R & F some vague ammunition to combat the obvious influence the internet has on potential converts.
As long as it kind of makes sense to them, they can rationalize when they are pointed to older publications - and now that they have a few line to memorize - they can deflect those pesky doubt scratchin JWD/Quotes/Re-examine pdf files of ACTUAL WT history.
No more need to look it up! its all been explained! LOL its new light!
Seems like they want some zealous wanna be to suggest going back to evening & sunday d2d work! They make it sound like that is what most congos already do! So lets not fall behind - we don't have to be told - we decide this ourselves! lol
How much time spent on individual spiritual growth?
they waste so much time on tangibles, details and technicalities, then they produce a whole herd of the same.
This is a pure case of covering your tracks (or covering your tacking!)

Mutz - you might want to warn your mom that in 20-30 years the WT will be using her comments as a scapegoat - Those OVER Zealous ones, reading into things, running ahead - we never used subliminal messages to mislead or trickery - its called Tacking, always moving forward (please don't look up scriipture about tacking cause that also makes us look bad)
2014 - new rule - you cannot be in the truth if you have internet in your home. (no kidding!)

When is Satan thrown out of heaven?
by M.J. in.
the jws, of course, claim this occurred in 1914, thus making the way for the new heavenly order with christ (michael) having won the battle and taking his place on the throne.. but what does revelation itself suggest as the timeframe for this battle?.
doesn't the society's version suggest that heaven was out of control until then--kind of like another earth?

Great topic A.
p.s. A question/observation for the benefit of lurkers or others who still think the JWs have so many truths....
If JWs say Jesus can't be god because when he was on earth - who was in heaven running things :-)
then if the devil isn't on earth now - who's running all the bad shit?
and if he (it) hasn't been hurled yet
is it his spirit that influences all the bad? The bad spirit...is it more powerful than god's spirit?
If god is spirit - must be good spirit - just can't seem to get the upperhand...(only being able to touch 144,000 creatures) -

This talk of real life imagery reminds me of the "what is Scientology" article on my home page today!
symbolically speaking tho, might the bad found in all of us (no one is perfect), at any one time be everywhere?
One man's evil is another man's tolerance - even the bible standards have new interpretations.
Jesus supposedly talked to satan.."I rebuke thee" was he on earth then?
If Adam and Eve were full-filling God's original plan, by living on a paradise earth - If the serpent was the devil was he on earth then?
or
if satan was "hurled" to earth for his short time (and there is hardly anytime left right?) - then I think the 1850s- + 70 years would be an excellent place to start, since shortly after that many er um (cough) religions were started up for one last whirlwind of spiritual distraction!
If we could think of 7 - maybe that has some symbolic significance as well! Or is it 12?
I am guessing on a few names - anyone know more?

Welcome Amnesty Vendor. curious name.
are you with the K GB looking for a way out of the doctine mess?
We know this is where they come to get ideas on what might cure the exodus.
Maybe a UNdisfellowshipping is granted to anyone who comes up with the best one!
and voila - first prize - you get your family back.
Either way, being here is a good thing - education - physical, emotional, spiritual, a well balanced meal.

Maybe Dozy watched "Good Night and Good Luck" last night and Auld Soul's point was made loud and clear.
This movie should be run right after KNOCKING whenever it is played.
Respectfully wondering
