On another thread below Gerard presents some material from the jw website which demonstrates the ludicrously double standard of jw thought (this one about how scripture is "plainly" understood)
From my outsiders perspective, I think that material that is currently put forward by them which can easily be revealed as utterly hypocritical, would be a very useful tool for showing to your jw family etc.
Is there somewhere here that we can make a database of current ludicrousy of argument - which actually can be plainly understood.
We could keep our own "reasoning from the watchtower" database, best kept to short verses, as the audience doesn't listen for long.
eg. "I read on the watchtower's own website about how they teach that all the scriptures are plainly understood and it's very wrong to use any artful stories of explanation or to think that the scriptures have hidden meanings - so what about the faithful and discreet slave?"
