  To Blue Dot or Not to Blue Dot. That is the question ....

  by Oubliette in

  so i've been noticing recently that some khs in the area where i live (socal) are putting up the jw.org little blue dot, but others are not.

  i would think this would be a mandatory directive from hq.

  does anyone here have any intel on the matter?.

  Splash nailed it!

  Thanks for sharing the articles showing their 180 on this issue.

  If you used their logos before you were an "idolater," now if you don't, you're being disobedient and not keeping up with "new light."
  

  Let's review: It's a cult!

  Steve2: Regarding Bergman (aka Havor Montague): There has been periodic questioning of his professional credentials

  That's not really relevant to the point of this thread. From the WT point of view, Bergman IS an apostate and yet they quoted him in support of their views.

  It's ok for Stephen Lett and Anthony Morris to be judgmental, but it's not ok for you!

  Fun at The WT This Morning

  by OneFingerSalute in

  so ofs was at the wt this morning, and on par.

  14 the question was, "what trust can a faithful christian whose relative is disfellowshipped have?".

  after awhile when no one else raised their hands ofs did, and was called on.. ofs commented, "one of jw can have the trust that god will lovingly give them the ability to uphold the disfellowshipping arrangement by totally shunning family members.".

  The elder is an idiot that doesn't even know what the WT leadership teaches. Good for you for setting HIM straight when he was lamely trying to set YOU straight!

  what an interesting find for me

  by sowhatnow in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  im sure to use this the next time i accidentally get sucked into an argument with someone.

  im not ever understanding the idea behind any christian religion picking and choosing what they want to believe and follow, then have the nerve to claim they are right, when clearly this is obviously done.

  here is a site that shows not only how bloodthirsty and evil the god of the hebrew bible was, but how more ridiculous it is for jws to follow one twisted 'commandment' about eating blood, not only reading it wrong, but then not to do all the other commandments, willingly , do they think they are ancient israelites ?

  Cofty: The ethics of the OT are no better than ISIS.

  I'd put it this way: the ethics of ISIS is based on the Old Testament and the alleged dictates of the God of the Bible.

  Videos at the a$$emb£ies?

  by punkofnice in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my spies tell me that they are getting shown videos very regularly at the 2 day convention(tm).. i figured it may be because the wbt$ wants mass indoctrination using their tried and tested propaganda techniques.. the average elder won't be aware that the wbt$ uses these thought reform techniques so will be incapable of using them himself.

  also, the elder might not put the money grabbing, 1984 ministry of truth spin on things and actually say something good instead.

  we know the wbt$ don't like 'good'!

  JWD: They were not any truer in 1984.

  I believe Punk was making a reference to George Orwell's seminal novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four and the Newspeak concept of using propaganda to control the masses.

  How are the JW's reacting to the new USA gay marriage laws?

  by purrpurr in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  personally i think this is wonderful.

  i have nothing against gay people and wish them only the best.. but of course i'm in a minority of one, the jw's around me are posting away on fb the most homophobic vitriol imaginable.

  a lot of them are even saying that it's the start to armageddon!!.

  millie: That is part of what caused such a split among our family. I would simply not turn my back on this one relative and my other siblings were more than willing to do so.

  Thanks for being an example of doing the right thing!

  What would a Psychoanalyst think about Jehovah's mental health condition?

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i think he would definitely diagnose him with a extremely violent form of narcissism, lugging around a huge shadow of denial, which makes him petty and homophobic, and those 100,000 animal sacrifice orgies he so very much enjoys are a sign of a serious greedy glutton.

  no doubt this voracious hunger for burnt flesh of lowly animals stems from the energy need after he experiences a uncontrollable bursts of anger creating a vicious cycle he can not break free of so that the only thing that can save him and turn him less violent is a human sacrifice from his heavenly son incarnate to quell his terrible anger.. maybe some form of oedipus complex too?.

  This is a great reasoning point, but one doesn't have to be highly trained to do this kind of assessment. Indeed, what would the average person think of any individual that acted exactly like Jehovah?

  every second our watch ticks, thats frequency of our current time.

  the frequency will hit our reality every 1 second.. same method for rainbow frequency.. this is where i need your scientists.

  need confirmation of change on fact of time.. and this... is truth of jehovah.... under sugar water, blue light will appear on left side.. under salt water, red light will appear on right side.. this concept is same for our heart.

  oppostate: Bukowski says the clock was raped. Nobody heard it scream, or sound the alarm.

  Now that was a timely remark!
