  The watchtower , by their own admission was built on unsound foundations. This has been attested to by their rejection of ' the old teachings ' to which they no longer hold. Any structure built on shaky / inappropriate foundations will eventually to avoid collapse,have to be 'propped up ' therein lies the rub, there will always be those who will prop up or accept the reasons for such to maintain the survival of the original. Their investment ( for whatever reason ) is deemed too important to contemplate demolition.

  Propping up = NEW LIGHT.

  ok..before you start no i don't watch them but my family have a never ending need to watch "how i met your mother" and endless repeats of "friends" .

  canned laughter, one liners with pause so those of lesser brain can catch the 'humour'.

  i have to put up with the sound track.. thank god for the abc classic fm-radio.

  Hi zeb.. enough for me to say .. I absolutely agree, but it takes allsorts to make a world. Its akin to not being able to comprehend why imo people buy into religion, the canned laughter being analogous of the unreal provoking excitement to the gullible.

  Best wishes

  GB Not Providing Food-Helpers Write Articles

  by TakeOffTheCrown in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  why does the governing body depend on the helpers to write watchtower articles and the information in other publications?

  why does the governing body not write these articles themselves?

  they depend on the helpers to compose/write this information.

  Just received a visit from 2 Elders

  by Driving Force in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the elders did not stay long and it wasn`t an official visit sanctioned by the boe/cobe because they were not from my (ex)congregation.

  we talked a little about my situation and the fact that my wife does not talk to me and how non-scriptural her behavior is.. then they mentioned the rc and how it was the best convention for the last 20 years.

  one thing they did mention was the fact that the borg was clearly preparing them for persecution.

  Preparing them for persecution....it's all about mind controlling bias. They know through the medium of internet, social media etc' and the wider reporting and official enquiries into child abuse they are feeling a lot more pressure. What better way to keep the subservient troops on side than convince them they are unjustly under attack and to expect persecution, it all plays into the 'we must stick together come what may' attitude as opposed to ,..why not question/investigate the reasons their organisation attracts criticism.

  Another few minutes there would have been no ambiguity from the jw, he would have to eventually show his true colors and defend the gb ( and cohorts ) and organization. Whatever jesus is given credit for would be on the back burner !! It's pitiful there minds are so ensnared.

  Who was Jesus?

  and how did you arrive at that conclusion?

  To me the jesus 2000 yr old experiment has gone on way too long. Are we seriously saying that what is believed by christians to be the most important aspect of their existence is still open for interpretation? My question would be why? This christ/god character should be trashed as a massively failed experiment with no relevancy to contemporary life.

  What Jehovah can't do...

  by C0ntr013r in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  during the rc today i heard this(i am paraphrasing and translating):.

  "jehovah has created the physical universe for us.

  he is a spirit and he can't enjoy physical things so he created it for us alone.

  The idea of god/ jehovah has given humans the ability to speculate, most of which is complete and utter nonsense. Alas the obsession seems to be permanent in some ! There are more worthwhile things to be concerned about.

  "Deep Down , He Knows That It is The Truth"

  by BluesBrother in

  2. friends

  this phrase i heard again at the weekend when a diehard dub was discussing his non believing, but much loved son.

  "it is just that..... [insert any excuse here].

  it is something that they all say about us, yet nothing could be further from the truth.

  Yes I heard this countless times until I was really forced to give my family some very uncomfortable home ' truths ' Im sure they now have got the message after many tears and regrettably I'm sure my responses caused one of my parents to be quite unwell but I detested the fact that they thought I hadn't reasoned the whole rejection of the jw bull...sh.. on my own and old nick had nothing to do with it !!

  Why would Jehovah and Jesus talk to Satan?

  by hardtobeme in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  if satan is the greatest apostate there is, why he was allowed to be in heaven?

  job chapters 1 and 2 says that jehovah talked to him.

  wasn't jehovah supposed to shun his son and set an example to all parents?.

  Looking Back In Retrospect To 1975...

  by titch in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  greetings, folks: so, it's been 40 years since 1975. and, if you were actively involved with the witnesses back then, the mindset of many was, that by early autumn of 1975, it would mark the anniversary of 6000 years of human existence.

  and, the hope was then, that it would mark the start of the 1000-year of christ, from the heavenly realm.

  but, looking back now, 40 years ago, in june of 1975, only 3 more months remained until early autumn.

  Unfortunately their( jws ) mindset is still the same,only a different focus drip fed by the gb and their oh so willing helpers. Mention 1975 and they apologise for the mother ship, that's even if they know what your talking about some of the younger ones and newer converts haven't a clue ! Myself 1975 didnt faze me one bit as by that time I had absolutely made up my mind it was not the truth. As the new year brought 1976 I did wonder about my families thoughts as they were uber dubs! 1975 was the year I was married in the kh, it was also the last time I set foot in one!
