The "reasoning book" was just another 'one-way' publication by the organization. As long as one agreed with the shit in the "reasoning book", then they were considered "reasonable".

how honest are the proponents of jesus as the ransom sacrifice?.
curious to see what type of response there is on a topic like this or does their study only seek to confirm their preconceptions and ignore uncomfortable facts?.
The biggest hole I see is the notion that blood has to be poured out in order to satisfy god in the first place. Why does a benevolent god require a bloody death of another human in order to be satisfied?
If god set the divine rules in the first place, he just as easily could have said that "I need 3 Hail Mary's and 2 Our Father's in order to be satisfied". OK, your the boss so whatever you say, that's the LAW. The notion that millions of gallons of blood needed to be poured out in both human and animal sacrifices in order to please god is "ungodlike".

Just don't get too carried away with the applause. If you do, you'll end up being part of the "Over-clapping Generation" that jesus "evidently" was referring to in Matthew!

a new letter was posted in jw.org to the elders who are under the brazilian branch:.
january 25, 2016to all bodies of eldersref .
: clap when given a readmission addear brothers:we would like to inform you about a recent adjustment.
If this an "authentic" directive from WT then it will surely soon be followed by another letter warning the rank and file sheeple to only modestly celebrate when a reinstatement is announced.
The letter will no doubt contain certain language regarding "an Over-clapping Generation" which Jesus "evidently" referred to in some obscure parable somewhere in the book of Jewish mythology called the bible.

so said my pops one morning.
we were visiting my sister in eastern tennessee and the night before after everyone else went to bed pops was watching tv when all of a sudden and completely on it's own the tv changed to the tonight show, holy smokes!!
must be demons cause pops didn't change it!
So very many of the f**king things that many, many jw's and ex-jw's fear, were created by the WT organization in order to create a need for the organization and even a need for jehober. Some things can't be logically explained, BUT in jw-land, if the the thing that happened was good, jehober, but if it's bad, satan.
"Create a need and fill it" is the absolute best business model ever thought of! And the WT organization has perfected the "create a need and fill it" business model!

just noticed this gem of a definition in the current (no 1) wt.
"lying.
saying something false to someone who is entitled to know the truth.".
Good catch Slidin and great comments all!
So much could be said about WHO has the right to determine anything? GOD? For example, GOD determined that the ONLY thing that could redeem mankind was BLOOD! That's why the bible (GOD'S word) is a record of a bloodthirsty GOD who just can't seem to ever get enough BLOOD poured out. Good people, bad people, even so-called perfect people needed to have their BLOOD poured out to please GOD, according to GOD!
Once again GOD (Guardians Of Doctrine) has spoken! They have determined that a lie is not a lie unless GOD (Guardians Of Doctrine) determines that it's a lie.
As our British brothers would say, "it's all a bloody lie!"

when installing, it asks if you'd like to receive automatic updates via the internet.. in other words, "we will re-write our history without you knowing what was written previously.".
the corporation knows that many will never exchange their cd rom for the puerile online library, so doctoring their previous "truths" is the best solution.. a bit like the creed painted on the barn door in "animal farm.
" .
I've heard that the borg is working on a fantastic new technology that will automatically update "the truth" on your CD whenever 'nu lite' is revealed by 'wholly spirit'. Trust me, guaranteed!

yesterday's meeting was again, quite soporific.
however, i felt indignation when it came to paragraph 16 of the watchtower catechism.
it reads..."the remarkable growth that we see today is the result of our faith in god and full acceptance of the bible..."i won't deal with the first part of that sentence here, but the claim at the end - this is just an outright and most egregious lie!
You have to admit that the number of "anointed" is growing at an amazing rate! lol
