What made you change your heart about serving the org?
well did you notice how these guys on the governing body seems to know such intimate things about jehovah like what he's thinking, what makes him sad/happy and yet they never even personally met the guy, because he is completely invisible except for those that claim to have seen him.
in other words they claim no direct communication with the corporate deity but claim to know his intimate feeling based on the study of an ancient text where writers claim direct inspiration and expression of the deity.. could these just be projections of their own thinking and feeling processes onto the corporate deity?
most likely.. isaiah 42:14-16.
It is this level of presumptuousness that made me start thinking differently about the organization. It just makes my stomach churn.

i believe they do.. loislane.
I think I am still a captive...
the watchtower deceiving statement being: read the bible, the word of god, every day!
the watchtower bible and tract society states, with every fiber of its organization and publishing house, that you should not read the bible (not even everyday), without the holy bible additionally being accompanied by and explained by the watchtower bible and tract societys own publications.. the watchtower society and its witnesses claim that one can not understand the holy bible without the guidance of the watchtower publications.. the statement on the watchtower publishing building in brooklyn is therefore at best deceiving, lacking an under-title stating that one should not read the bible without the watchtowers additive writings.
thus the watchtower publishing house is deceiving (lying to) those who read this statement on their building... the watchtower publishing house is already familiar with explanatory subtitles to what they publicize, among others, the subtitles to the watchtower magazine.. the governing body of the watchtower witnesses (whom abuses g-ds holy name), excluded 4 out of the 7 members of the governing body in 1919, with the double vote by their president rutherford, when the watchtower magazines underscore shifted its wording from preaching the kingdom of jesus christ to preaching jehovahs kingdom.

i really should get some monitoring setup but it's been pretty rock solid for ages so i've never bothered.. must be something todo with all the tinkering i've been doing and the background job i started running yesterday.. anyway, sorry for anyone who's been trying to access the site..
What a relief. I thought the site has been hacked by WT already.
Thank you, Simon, for getting it up and running again.

How exciting to be taken care of by the fierce and not-so-discreet slave at this critical time!
How blessed are we for the new improved bible!
Wait, what's that about the new edition being "sister-proof"??????
from the reddit agm blog:.
god's will to be completed by the end of the millennium.

Where's SFPW?
Your Governing Body already knows what God will do. Why?
Are they now greater than God?
Wow.

So, yes, they're all for display.
And then they'll roll out the new NTW version, appearing to be a product of the most meticulous and painstaking research and translation work, ever.
It's all for show...
Just my gut feeling.
