  What about hermaphrodites?

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower

  a recent post about transgender people made me think.

  i think its obvious that transgenders and homosexuals are easily banned in jwdom because the people in question were clearly born with their respective sex organs.. however.

  what about intersex people aka hermaphrodites?

  Bible answer:John 9:2-3 "Teacher why was this man born blind? Was it a result of his

  own sins or those of his parents? It was not because of his sins or his parents sins, Jesus

  answered, he was born blind so the power of God could be seen in him.

  OK, we have GOD playing games again. How can the power of God be seen in him???

  So in the case of a hermaphrodite he or she must make it known to the world so the

  power of God can be seen in him  some strange way.

  What do you call Angels? Angelic hermaphrodites..

  Critical Thinking-is that phrase a stigma?

  by PaintedToeNail in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i first heard the term 'critical thinking' it was as a teenager during a watchtower study.

  the study went on to elaborate how we shouldn't be swayed by critical thinking.

  there was no explanation that the term didn't mean 'to criticize' thoughts and words, but rather that it means 'to objective think and to evaluate thoughts and words'.

  That's why when I ask a JW about critical thinking she said one must be careful with critical

  thinking. LOL

  HGTV special . Small Bunker homes for JW's

  by Quarterback in

  1. social
  2. humour

  i've been reading so much lately about the pre message of the rc is about downsizing and living in bunkers.. are we getting ahead of ourselves?

  living within your means has been a good piece of advice.

  i do have a big house, but along with that i have to pay extra to heat it, extra work to clean it, more on residential taxes, worries about the volatile house market.

  Forget condos, tiny house community is the way to go, but no loft.

  A 600-700 sq. feet home would be  great.Tiny house crazy is gaining a  lot of momentum here

  in the US. I would love to see a senior tiny house community.

  The funny part about the nudist couple story, they sat down at the dining table (nude) with the wife

  breast in full view of the brother. So either the brother was blind or they had a divine intervention

  blocking off the sensitive parts of the body. Wow ! JW's come up with some outrageous stories.

  I did have the experience on preaching to the Mayas in Central America in the bush and the brothers

  warn us, brothers keep your eyes in the Bible because the women walk around topless. Keep

  your eyes on the prize.

  Anyone heard the story, a couple in FS called at the door of a couple who were nudist ?

  They were invited into the home, sat down and gave a good witness.

  stuckinarut2: "is this evidence of a lack of divine blessing", NO. This is the separation work the weeds

  from the wheat. The same was said after 1975, Jehovah cleaning out his organization.

  Every 30 or 40 years Jehovah must clean house, Apostate keep wondering into the ranks.

  They scare the B-jesus out of the RF and the numbers goes up, the great crowd the end in near.

  After the RF realize the GB is full of sh--t the numbers go down, it's time to chop weeds.

  A vicious cycle in Jehovah's organization.

  You wear tight pants and you will be in trouble

  i was reading in another forum, that a letter to the elders instructed them to speak to anybody who persists in wearing tight pants.

  if changes don't happen then the instructions are to disqualify him from being a publisher but it won't be announced to the congregation.

  i am am curious to see if this letter will surface.

  OK folks dress code in the bible, (1) no cross dressing Deut.22:5, (2) avoid Glitzy

  attire 1 Tim 2; 9-10 and (3) beware of the hat, 1 Cor: 11:4-7.

  The hat is questionable, the Pope wear a hat.Maybe if someone went to the KH and

  really cross dressed maybe they would ease up on the tight pants.

  They (GB) are comical, all the issues that face the world today they focus on

  tight pants.

  They remind me of Boot camp, barrack inspection in the military. No matter how

  hard you worked to pass inspection they always found something to bitch about.

  "The Bunker" WT Conventions 2016 (Gag Me)

  by Poztate in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in the very near future the gang will be down in a bunker,cellar awaiting the police,military to break in and take them away to camps or executions .

  (paranoid much) this is the foretold "prophecy" of the governments turning on religion and saving them for last.since the couple portrayed as simplifying their life by getting rid of a lot of material things is shown to be (about) the same age in the bunker we know it must be any minute now that it will happen.

  i have been out for over 35 years and things seem to be getting more bizarre each year.. when did this doctrine really become main stream?

  Back with the old scare tactics, there is no shame in their game. That's why the RF are taking

  happy pills, it's nerve racking. The sky is falling!!! When? Any day now.

  My poor JW family members, I understand the shunning they need help..

  I will ask the next JW that come to door, have you built your bunker..

  I also will go pass my JW elder brother home and if I see mounds of dirt in his yard I

  will put my foot down and call the loony farm.

  Thanks peely, They are so blind, but I keep in mind I also walked in darkness.

  And yes the Bible description of the Pharisees fits the GB to a T.
