Translating JWFacts to Spanish... Update?

by ILoveTTATT in

as you all may know, it is an ongoing project to translate jwfacts to spanish.

given that there are more than 2 spanish-speaking jw's for every one that speaks english, it can be safely said that spanish is the #1 language in the jw world (even though everything is made originally in english).. the spanish-speaking jw's are harder to convince.

i attribute it almost 100% to socioeconomic factors.

hello, i been out of here because of my work. im back. im traslating the "Cross or stake" article from jwfacts.

i hope to end the translation in this weekend.

Hay que dar a conocer la verdad en espeñol!!!

Last night, me and my wife were watching some The Simpsons episodes. We both laugh and enjoy that serie. But just in this one, my wife face was serious and even uncomfortable. It was the "Joy of Sect", episode 191 of the 9 season (thanks wikipedia!!) If one of you already see that episode, its not difficult to identify some things that the JW do. The propaganda, the brainwashing, the "you´re free to go whenever you want" (while you´re are exposed, and have to sort a lot of dangers to get free); the "repetitive and meaningless song to program minds", the entire devotion to The Leader (aka GB/F&DS) who knows all; the promise of Bleassing Land, that planet of joy for the followers.

My wife is a DF´d who still thinks that the JW are right. My little efforts to show her TTATT is with this kind of things. I made some commentaries about all resemblances from the sect perspective, i hope that some day, she wake up completly. We have a son, and we agreed about the throw him birthdays parties each year. Thats a start....

didn't see any other threads, apologies if one already exists.

apparently died of a massive stroke this morning.. r_o.

(completely unconfirmed.

juanvazquez88

im sorry about this death. But bring me some questions: if the F&DS IS formed of 8 mens, and exists only when they unite together to make decisions, how can they choose another guy to complete other F$DS if in this moments being only seven?? I dont know if i explain my point...

Pope Favors Gay Civil Unions?

surprising comments by the pope.

the world is changing, indeed.

juanvazquez88

be careful about what you read about Pope Francis, much of his discourses and interviews are object of misreading or even manipulation. Im catholic, and when i read something about pope francis said this or said that i always check the sources. In my experience, its all about of make him said things "progressive", but if you look the entire context and the total text, he said something totally different. The media use his words like when the Watchtower take some arguments of authors cutting words or present them in a different context to agree with their view of things. In this case, the Pope talks about the marriage only for man and woman. And he continues, the states want to justify the civil unions to regulate differents aspects like economics and of convenience. He never said something about being ok on this kind of unions, he only said the efforts of the states to regulate this unions.
