  My Experiments with “TRUTH,” a CO opens his heart!

  by abiather in

  this is the first message from the co:.

  "william claire menninger, a co-founder of the menninger foundation in topeka, kansas, wrote 13 symptoms of mental illness.

  one of them is: the attitude that i am always right and others always wrong.

  They are Definitely Attacking "Higher Education"

  by XBEHERE in

  2. friends

  a friend of mine recently had his co visit and in the elders meeting the co out-right asked the question: how are the friends doing in your cong.

  as regards pursuing higher education?

  the co continued...you know in view of all the counsel from the slave regarding the dangers.

  This was one of the things that bothered me the most when I was an elder. Stupid is as Stupid does and the GB loves keeping their followers stupid.

  Major flub in Slavery Watchtower Study Article

  by scotoma in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do you ever wonder if the watchtower writers actually read the context of their key scriptures?.

  they seem intent on perpetuating the idea that the jewish law was divine - perfect.. paragraph two asks the question "what would prompt an israelite slave to forfeit his opportunity.

  to be free?".

  1 Cor 2 v 14?

  by LucidChimp in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a loved one of mine who is now "out" mentally (and waiting patiently on other family members so they can get "out" physically too) pointed this change out to me after an assembly day just recently.

  not being one of the chosen few who carry around the new silver spoon - they noticed the difference in their old bible as the speaker was reading from the new one.. .

  nwt: but a physical man does not recieve the things of the spirit of god (1 cor 2 v 14).

  They did the same thing with Acts 17:11 where the Boereans "accepted the word"

  Lol COBE beef!

  Yeah datadog you stripped your kids self esteem with that comment. I know I have have said things that are hurtful myself.

  I always TRY to look at parenting as trying to always carry my boys on my shoulders. Metaphorically speaking of course. I want to lift them up so that they become more than I am.

  Babylon not rebuilt....B S

  by Skinnedsheep in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i always accepted that babylon was simply a pile of ruins miles from anything and inhabited only by goats.

  this is one of the proofs that witnesses use for bible accuracy and prophecy.. if you are interested check out ancient babylon on google maps.

  it is about 3 miles from the city of hillah which is 380,000+ people.

Of course no one would build on top of the ruins for the same reason that they won't build a shopping mall at Machu Picchu.

  Grr. This makes me so angry that I ever believed any of this crap.

  I love how they painted over "read god's word every day" three months ago, while getting ready to hang these giant banners directing people to the org.

  jw.org is nothing but a corporate site. check out Mormon.org and see the similarities.
