was just checking out the jdub website and came across their "legal developements and human rights" page.. http://www.jw.org/en/news/legal/.
notice the glaring absence of one paticular kind of "legal developements"?
pbrow.

did anybody else read this article and just think wth?.
sometimes god approves of war.. sometimes god doesn't approve of war.. when the israelites fought battles and won it was because god blessed them.. when they lost it was because god had not blessed them.. sometimes god fights for oppressed ones.. sometimes they must wait and have faith.. it is so clear that the bible contradicts itself on this issue and that the nation of israel had a totally different view of god than the early christians.
it is also clear that the nation of israel was highly superstitious and would attribute every battle's outcome to the whims of a higher power.
Sometimes God doesn't approve of war."
Sometimes God approves of adultery and sometimes he don't! (Abraham)
Sometimes God approves of lying and sometimes he don't! (Abraham)
Sometimes God approves of polygamy and sometimes he don't! (All kings of Israel)
He's God. He can do anything he wants! It was a preview how "new light" would work during da time of da end!

wondering what to think...i'm recently divorced from my jw spouse ( i was never a jw).
we have a 11 year old son who is being forced to attend meetings and have all the beliefs that ex has.
i'm constantly being told what i should do and i'm supposed to go along with ex on whatever he says because apparently the "head of the family" continues after divorce in his world.
Yep "brazen conduct" covers a multitude of sins my brother. It's another new phrase in the jw dictionary. According to the borg, the definition of 'brazen conduct'
= whatever the f**k we want it to mean. Tough s**t brother! Remember jehober trusts us!

millie210 posted this on another thread - i thought it deserved it's own op:.
i took an elderly friend to the meeting last night.
the study is in the "imitate their faith" book which is merely a compilation of previous short stories about bible characters that were featured in a series of watchtower articles.. they waste no time beginning their spinning and supposition with the cain/abel story.
The swords may have fell out of jehober's chariot as it sped past Eden headed back to heavenly "Pleiades where the eternal throne of jehober resides". It's possible!

On the Cain and Abel fable, I always wondered why jehober warned wicked, vile, evil no-good Cain about his evil intentions---but jehober didn't warn good, faithful, righteous Abel that his asshole brother was about to kill him? Would have no doubt f**k'd up the fable if the good guy would have defended himself.

i was invited to a small get-together by a long time friend.
we both served as elders for years.
he is in his late 70s.
So, apparently, there are hundreds of old JWs spread across the southwest who regularly meet together, openly criticize the WTS, and not once has anyone had an attack of conscience & blown the whistle to another JW loyalist?
I gotta say that I'm with sir82. This sounds like a crock! Sorry.

the 2015 annual meeting, specifically, part 1, right about minute 27, has anthony morris emphasizing that "you're better off reading one chapter (of the bible) and really absorbing it" than just reading the whole thing "as a challenge".
while i agree with the the whole idea of meditating on anything you read, it was doing this very thing that brought up so many unanswered questions.
i also came to the constant realization that the jws did not have a clue about what the bible really said.
Reading the bible at all is nothing to brag about! Greek mythology is much more interesting than Hebrew mythology!

there were at least four jw's to one lone man on the street.
they look to be mostly elders.
if they are ... is this the example they really want to set.
That was really not cool at all. Our 'beef' is with the borg, not the bro's. Why attack the sheeple? Remember that at one time we were all sheeple.
