Now notice how the same kind of twisted logic leads to the equating of an invasive examination by a gynecologist, with sexual intercourse
Is a gynecologist with large fingers considered well hung?
WT has their hands in everything.

According to JWs' application of Acts 15:29, shouldn't they also be refusing medical examinations by gynecologists?
by Island Man inwatchtower uses the following twisted logic to equate receiving a blood transfusion, with feeding on blood:.
feeding is sometimes done by injecting nutrients intravenously.. blood transfusions are carried out by injecting blood intravenously.. therefore the intravenous injecting of blood can be equated with feeding intravenously.. hence, true christians refuse blood transfusions in order to obey the biblical command to "abstain from blood".. now notice how the same kind of twisted logic leads to the equating of an invasive examination by a gynecologist, with sexual intercourse:.
sexual intercourse is often done by inserting the penis into the vagina.. certain invasive examinations by a gynecologist is done by inserting an instrument into the vagina.. therefore such invasive gynecological examinations can be equated with sexual intercourse.. hence, true christians refuse such gynecological examinations that are performed by someone to whom they're not married, in order to obey the biblical command to "abstain from fornication".. it's the same kind of twisted reasoning, isn't it?

Oubliette: Note, several people have Bibles, but no one has one open.
This is a common feature is most WT pictures. Who needs a Bible (or Jesus) when an elder wearing a cardigan and cheap-assed tie is available?

Why did the WT writers switch the people in the GENERATION from the general population to ' The Anointed?
by prologos inwhat is your theory on the reason that prompted that?

The Circuit Overseer Visit
by garyneal inlast week, the circuit overseer came to visit my wifes congregation and as usual their patterns change somewhat during this week.
from my perspective, the meetings are held on tuesday and thursday instead of the normal wednesday night during this week and they are more eager to go out in field service.
sunday came and my wife wanted us to attend the meeting.

You don't actually have to be a member of the UN to use the library
True. Access to the U.N. library has never been dependent on becoming an NGO.
Regardless, even if the UN had the greatest library in the world and it was only accessible to those with NGO status, on what basis can WT justify doing what it did, considering its established record of publicly condemning the UN as the "scarlet colored wild beast" of Revelation, and enemy of God's Kingdom?

garyneal: Learning what I learned about their association with the UN, I am surprised that the CO would make such a comment in his talk. Evidently, he never got the memo
Gary- historically WT has a long and established record of condemning other religions for doing the very same thing WT is doing or will eventually be doing as time goes on.
The difference is, when other religions do these things it's a sin, "apostasy"; when WT does it, they they come up with 1,001 rationalizations why it's acceptable.
At the very same time WT was condemning the Catholic Church for having no less than 24 NGO positions with the UN, WT was also an NGO.
It is the height of hypocrisy.

But 99.999% of jdubs don't know about the NGO "wt scandal"...and if you told them, the pat answer would surely be, "Oh, but they stopped when they realized it was wrong
My response to this would be: if WT realized it was wrong and corrected their ways, why did they immediately join the OSCE as an NGO? The OSCE is the European sister organization of the UN, and their goals are so similar to the UN's they are viewed as one and the same. The OSCE is a self-described "political-military organization".
WT is still an NGO with the OSCE.
--
Who we are
With 56 States from Europe, Central Asia and North America, the OSCE is the world's largest regional security organization. It offers a forum for political negotiations and decision-making in the fields of early warning, conflict prevention, crisis management and post-conflict rehabilitation, and puts the political will of its participating States into practice through its unique network of field missions.
The OSCE has a comprehensive approach to security that encompasses politico-military, economic and environmental, and human aspects. It therefore addresses a wide range of security-related concerns, including arms control, confidence- and security-building measures, human rights, national minorities, democratization, policing strategies, counter-terrorism and economic and environmental activities.

Looks like they have added an option to pick your language.
I picked "The Pure Language" and got an error message...
