Comments we WISH WE WOULD HEAR at the Watchtower study tomorrow - " Brothers and sisters the elders have recieved a letter from Bethel indicating it is inappropriate to discuss mutual masturbation, oral sex, and anal sex in front of minor children aged 1 to 16 who are in attendance at the meeting. This is information that could lead our young brothers and sisters to have TOO MUCH curiosity about these " adult " subjects , and the Watchtower legal department has requested we not discuss such practices in front of children as the society may be liable for contributing to the sexual delinquency of minor children " . God knows they should be saying something like this - if they really cared about HOW they were influencing children

"unless you actually built the house"
The most important part of any construction are its foundations.
What are the foundations of, the Wts, Failed prophecies, Russell's and Rutherford's misjudgments, Lies, misguided statements etc . etc.
Any building inspector would have condemned it there and then.

Q 14. Integrity-keepers respond in what way to organizational changes and doctrinal refinements?
14. We can also maintain integrity by avoiding a fault-finding, critical spirit. That means, of course, being loyal to Jehovah. He is blessing his people now more than ever. Pure worship has never in all of history been so exalted on earth. (Isa. 2:2-4) When adjustments are made in explanation of Bible texts or in how things are done, we want to accept them. We are delighted to see evidence that the spiritual light is still increasing. (Prov. 4: 18) If we find it hard to understand a change, we ask Jehovah to help us to comprehend the point. Meanwhile, we endure in an obedient course, keeping our integrity.
If the WT came out today and said, Blood Transfusions are ok now, It would not be hard to comprehend the point. It saves lives. If we find it hard to understand the change, is that there was the rule in the first place. So, while we blindly follow an obedient course, The WT assumes this is keeping integrity.
It's really ashame what they have done to their followers, condemning for thinking on your own, only being able to accept what they tell us when they tell us.
Fault-finding and having a critical spirit does not mean you are not being loyal to Jehovah. Some are only critical of the organization and the wrong interpetion imperfect men put out. Not a fair statement at all.
