all my jw life i was reminded constantly about the importance of not bringing reproach on jehovah's name.
decisions on whether or not to disfellowship an individual often turned, not on the seriousness of the sin, but on whether the incident was public knowledge and had resulted in bad publicity for the congregation.
i recall a middle-aged lady being reported to the elders for shoplifting a sweet worth less than £1- and the elders' insistence that a judicial committee must be formed because the store manager and staff knew that she was a jw (i successfully argued that all she needed was support for her dreadful family life, but that's another story).
I can only imagine how odious the name Jehovah has become in Australia.
Good point Cofty
Talk about bringing reproach onto Jehovah's name .
Silly twits why didn't they just go long with the governmental laws and regulations.
The JWS leaders (GB) implemented the two witness rule to these unlawful egregious matters in a underling intent of protecting the organization's public image or bring reproach onto Jehovah's chosen earthly organization..

just goes to show why in dubland they adhere to the 2 witness rule so adamantly and are so anal about it.
Thanks Beth Sarim , I just wanted to show the false teachings of the Watchtower Corporation and why they are an organization of false theology proven by scripture and secular information.
This organization and its GB leaders have been opposed to Jehovah and his son Jesus Christ for many years.
We now have the capability to expose this organization for what it is, commercialized false prophets inherently sinful and endeavored in apostasy.

The apostate Scholar has put biased blinders on his head and rebuked all or any information that doesn't fall inline with the WTS's dating of 607 and the dating of 1914.
Well at least we offered and witnessed to him the truth, his loyalty to the men of the WTS is obviously far greater than it is to Jesus Christ, he may have to be confronted with that situation one day.
Farewell false prophet scholar.
it’s no secret that the mainstream media runs the show and that they can’t stand trump.
for good reason because trump has been demeaning to journalists on several occasions.. life lesson for donald trump: don’t make fun of people that have the power to destroy you!
nobody likes getting laughed at.. don’t get me wrong.
So that dirty lefty Biden is responsible for the Covid 19 and the lack of restrictions and testing which is making the US the epic centre in the world for the virus.
Those tricky politicians , you never know what they have up their sleeves.

Apostate Scholar says .........
that Exile ended in 537 BCE by means of Cyrus' Decree and the Exile
lasted for 70 years so if we count back 70 years from 537 BCE then
we arrive at the beginning of that Exile in 607 BCE
Ya ya ya We've heard this tripe before, were ex-JWS remember
The debate is about what year did Jerusalem fall or was destroyed the WTS says 607 BCE, the facts and accumulative evidence say 586 BCE.
Nebuchadnezzar's annexation over Judea lasted approximately 68 years close to 70 .
Such facts provide support for the 1914 CE
The WTS intentionally wanted to make 1914 a significant year because it was made previously so by C T Russell by using Pyramidology .
It sells nicely and the WTS has been selling this year still.
Somehow these men didn't read the words of Jesus condemning his true faithful followers to make a time upon god's own sacred time .

Scholar if you would try and pull your head out your ass you might be able see things clearer..
The supporting fact is Nebuchadnezzar started his annexation over Judea in 605 BCE, the actions that followed are also well documented in the bible and secular acquired findings, so 607 BCE is ridiculously not supported.
But if you like the BULLSHIT the WTS puts before you and expects you to take it in as food at the proper time that's your business, well actually its the WTS's business if your know what I mean $$$

Jerusalem could not have fallen in either 586 or 587 BCE for such dates do not agree with the Bible and secular history.
BULLSHIT !
Nice intellectually dishonest assertion there Scholar but we already heard that from the notably lying and corrupt men of the WTS/JWorg.
It is imperative to note that the leading men of the WTS were not academically trained bible scholars, they were essentially novices running a publishing house, hence their pretentiously weak doctrines.
As Scholar has admitted unity toward falsehoods is still unity, which means within the ideology of religion still equates to power and control for a few select men..
.
just wanted to put this out there for any lurkers.. as someone that grew up during the 70s and 80s, we were promised that we would be in the first picture long ago.
if you are still on the fence, please let this sink in for a while..
It's just this empty sinking feeling, realizing it was just a big 'lie' from the Russell/Rutherford onward. Sick....
These men created what was called a confidence game where what they were selling was exploited from the public's general basic belief in the bible.
Their personal endeavors created a fair amount of power and control over others and a accumulative amount of assets in land and money as well..
The kind of power and money that certain men dream about, as if they built their very own self made " Kingdom " .
Maybe not quite as large as that one but big nevertheless.
Now days most JWS just usually carry around a computer tablet

You cant be too truthful in exposing " The Truth " if your a practicing JWS or you will be shown the door and ostracized.
