Update to Linguistics Publications Software Build
by objectivetruth ina few weeks ago, i mentioned a new tool that i started building which will track wording changes and find trends highlighting propoganda techniques in the wt publications... this is an update.. 1. a fellow jwn member has joined the project, (more like he recruited me to join his already existing project).. 2. we have made some great progress.
the most exciting news is that we now have a complete text catalog of all watchtower publications from the 1870's to 2014.. 3. we are building an online tool which will be "invite only" (the site will be free, but certain areas will only be accessible to approved individuals) .
this tool will be similar to wol.jw.org , with 1 main difference.. there will be no "newspeak" tactics employed on this site.

Our First Example of Data and Propoganda / Mind Control Techniques Unveiled!
From 1960 to 2013 The Watchtower used the word "Apostate" on Average 11.8 Times Per Year.
Along this timeline, there have been 2 Noticeable Spikes in Usage of the word "Apostate".. Care to take a guess at the Time Periods?
If your Guess started with the Words "Ray" or "Big-A" you are Correct!
The Year 1976 saw a 400% Increase in the Usage of the Word "Apostate" it was used 28 Times in 1976 (Compared to an average of 6 times per year in the 16 Years Prior)
During a 6 Year Period spanning from 1981 to 1986 the Word Apostate was seen in the Watchtower constantly! This 6 Year Period saw "Apostate" used 162 Times, an average of 27 Times Per Year.
The Armageddon False Prophecy took place in 1975.
Brother Raymond Franz was Disfellowshipped in 1981.....
(This is not a conclusive study, and it does not include additional words such as "Apostates" or other synonyms for apostate.)

Hi Everyone,
A few weeks ago, I mentioned a new tool that I started building which will track Wording Changes and find Trends highlighting Propoganda Techniques in the WT Publications... this is an Update.
1. A fellow JWN member has joined the Project, (More like he Recruited me to join his already existing Project).
2. We have made some great Progress. The most exciting news is that we now have a complete Text Catalog of All Watchtower Publications from the 1870's to 2014.
3. We are building an online Tool which will be "Invite Only" (The site will be free, but certain areas will only be accessible to Approved individuals) . This tool will be similar to wol.jw.org , with 1 main difference.. There will be no "Newspeak" tactics employed on this site. All Articles will remain in their original & Unadultered glory, they will be online and available to search and Research to all members of the site.
4. The individual that I have partnered with is a very talented Developer, and he has some great ideas for some Intuitive and easy to use tools.. If you want to see How the "Light" has become lighter and darker through the years, on any topic we hope to provide tools that will make all of your research easy and effective.
5. We are also speaking with another individual who will be creating "The Prodigal Son" (Caleb's Twin Brother, who was DF'd at 8) - This JWN member does Animation profesionally and he has volunteered his time and ideas. He has some Great Ideas for our Un-Witnessing campaign.

HELP needed for a friend, please. Anyone?..
by defender of truth ina friend of mine (who has recently started reading jwn) is having trouble eating and sleeping because, even after having recently woken up to ttatt.. they are still concerned about 'demons, everlasting destruction, and jehovahs disapproval'.. i've tried to encourage them.
i'm sure you all understand that these things can take time, the transition period is often painful, to some extent.
i'm still struggling with anger and depression myself.. i'll be away from jwn, off the internet, and thus out of contact with them for a while (don't ask why)... so please don't expect me to reply to or even look at what you post, .

The org paints a Black and White Picture of God & the world.. When a former JW wakes up to this, their viewpoint on life can be seriously distorted.
Fortunately and Unfortunately the scriptures and God's Plan are not Black & White.
As to not bore anyone, I will mention a few Truths that can be proven thoroughly using the Scriptures as well as Common Sense.
1. God is benevolent, and his plan entails giving all Humans a Full chance at Eternal Life / Salvation. Some people may die at Armaggedon, however every human that has ever Lived will be Resurrected, and will live for 1,000 Years, in a world free from Satanic Influence.
2. There are things that we can do now, for "Demons" to completely flee from us. This can be seen in the Old Testament, Demons did not trouble the Jews, the reason is that that Jews followed God's Laws. It is only in the New Testament that you see Demon Possesion amongst the Gentiles.
3. As a few posters above mentioned, the Bible is not the "Perfect" word of God.. If it were, it would not have any errors or contradictions as it has now. The Bible is "inspired" of God in some books, but he has not protected the Bible completely from Manipulation or Translation errors.
- If your friend wishes to PM, me to discuss any specific challenges that he/she is facing, I'll help in any way that I can.

Jesus is the Problem-"Christian Parents (not JWs) kick their son out for being Gay
by fulltimestudent injesus had nothing to say - for or against, homosexuality.
yet in his name, ignorant 'christian' parents will shun their children.
and jesus does not interfere.

Matt2414 -
26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
What do you feel this scripture at Romans 1 is referring to, if it is not referring to homosexual Acts.. I.E. Sodomy?
Im also curious, what your viewpoint is of the linguistics used in 1 Cor 6:9 " Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men"

The Great Crowd Catch 22
by Perry injust had a two hour conversation with my father.
he is insistent that he will be able to enter the kingdom of god as a member of the 'great crowd'.
he did agree that only the annointed are declared righteous.

What does it mean to believe?
the "first use" of a word in Scripture is often very significant as it establishes the primary or most significant meaning, and this general principle is true in the Spirit's inspired use of 'aman in Genesis 15:6 where "Abram believed in Jehovah" = Hebrew verb 'aman = Greek verb
Genesis 15:6 Then he believed (Aman in the Hiphil stem) in Jehovah; and He reckoned it to him as righteousness.
Comment: The use of aman in this passage indicates that Abram did not just give mental assent to God's promise ( Ge 15:5 ), but that he relied on that promise and made a personal commitment. In other words Abram's faith was not only cognitive (the mental act of acquiring knowledge) but also personal for he believed God’s word of promise (Cp the NT "commentary" on this OT use of "aman" -- Hebrews 11:8 = His faith was the root of the fruit of obedience, which is a sign that one's faith is genuine saving faith and not just mental assent! the depth of his faith which led to the ultimate act of obedience in Heb 11:17 , 18 , 19 ) and he committed his soul to the God Who had revealed Himself. Considering that "amen" (truly, it is certain) is derived from "aman", it is as if Abram heard God's promise in Ge 15:5 and said "Amen!" Jesus repeatedly used the Hebrew word "amen" ("Truly") to express the trustworthiness and abiding certainty of His sayings.

Your body is your PRIMARY TEACHER (a God-appointed channel is nowhere in the picture)
by Pinku inbalance is the natural state of your body and is maintained by moderation in your habits such as sleep, work, eating, entertainment and thinking.
(mathew7:12; 5:13-16; proverbs 25:16, 27; 1 cor 6:12; 8:9; philippians 4:5) your body sends signs of distress when you cross the limit.. this is true even in subtler areas too.
contrary to the popular notion that happiness or peace come from accumulating things, body teaches it comes from renunciation.

"We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves."
" Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue."
