New Name For Watchtower?
by sweet pea in.
ok everyone, just some fun here - no i haven't got wind of any change in the pipeline but, if the watchtower bible and tract society were to ditch the name watchtower altogether, what would they call the watchtower magazine instead?
all suggestions warmly welcomed......

STOP victimizing individual posters!
by hamsterbait inmy blood is boiling.. jcanon has as much right to post here and express his opinions as anybody else.. if you don't like his posts then don't bother commenting.. if you find his posts boring than don't bother commenting.. if you don't agree with him, then say why with evidence.. if you want to back him up then say why with evidence.. this whole "who hates **** or finds **** crap is really just descending to the level of the kindergarten playground.. everybody here has the right to be heard listened to or ignored - but not put under a spotlight of disdain and disapproval from other posters.. if i had been mocked or put down when i first came here, i would never have come back.. jc lives on this earth just like all of us.
if he destroys his credibility or repels you that is his own doing.
just don't recruit supporters of your own camp against him.. be fair to everybody, and they will be fair to you.. this was in response to the thread "who else finds jcanon's posts boring?.

The name "Jehovah's Witnesses" is NOT scriptural!
by Nathan Natas init is not infrequently that jehovah's witnesses make the statement that the name of their organization is "scriptural.
tony wills, in his book "a people for his name" makes an interesting point about the misrepresentation of that name as "scriptural" and the appropriateness of this name-change by the impostor "bible scholar" rutherford -.
[rutherford] showed the need of a new name by such texts as the following:.

Demonic Possesion- people were just ill - so will Elders pray for my dog?
by Witness 007 inso sad= the bible states that demonic possesion caused people to become ill....today we call it epelepsy and tarets syndrome.
my dog had a fit for about a minute after which he was very agressive for a couple minutes...which freaked me out..the vet said this is no big deal, no reason for it...so do you think i could call the elders and convince them to pray for him regarding his "demonic attack.
" ...remember jesus "legion demons" entered the swine, and i don't want him to run over a cliff, so what are my chances?....if they lecture me about "worshiping pets" i will throw them out!

Noah's ark - Can't believe I once actually thought it was true
by sam_sane_now inwhen i was a jw i didn't even question that the noah's ark story might not be true.
i didn't realise that it wasn't achievable for a handful of people to gather literally millions of animals - two of each kind - and fit them into a boat where they would all survive for many days.
i didn't think about the fact that if the highest mountain was covered with water then how could plant life like trees and flowers come to exist again, especially so soon after, with the raven grabbing an olive leaf was it?

Bethelite: Elder burnout, R&F disillusionment led to book study change
by pseattle2 inplease visit the blog: http://governingbodyletters.blogspot.com/2008/05/bethelites-viewpoint-on-recent.html.
a bethelite's viewpoint on the recent organization changesto me the most obvious reason has nothing to do with control, or money.
it has everything to do with the serious shortage of qualified brothers who can (or who are willing to) be used.
