    I plan to call up the branch office and pose as an 'interested one' and ask a bunch of difficult questions I am almost positive no JW witness will be able to ansewr. SO far I have:

    1. If the supposed "light is getting brighter" then does that not mean that it is possile that many of the teachings that the Society is teaching now may be false such as blood transfusions and the 1914 teaching?

    2. Since any witness who speaks against the WT and refutes one of their teachings and is therefore disfellowshipped for it, what if the very teaching that they spoke against turned out to be wrong later on? Does that mean that person is reinstated for being right all along? For example, organ transplants were seen as a form of cannibalism in the early 1950's by the wittnesses and so therefore considered a reason for disfellwoshippment if one had one. But now that teaching has been reversed. Does that mean anyone who went against that teaching was to be reinstated?

    3. If the light is getting "brighter and brighter" then explain this"

    1954: the use of blood fractions were not allowed

    1958: society reverses their decison and blood fractions are allowed

    1961: blood fractions again are not allowed

    1964: blood fraction are allowed again.

    Seems to me the light is blinking a bit doesn't it?

    4. A recent Awake article stated that fornication is not only defined as " sexual intercourse between two unmarried individuals" but also includes both oral and what the awake called (multiple masturbation; basically feeling each other up) and thus such ones are NOT considered virgins in the eyes of God. (what is this the twilight zone??!!! multiple masturbation???!!! ) Yet the Bible never mentions such acts as fornication and the awake had no such scripture to back up this claim.

    So if anyone has any really good quesitons let me know.

    If one is saving a life it is ok to break the Sabbath, which is punishable by death... why is it not ok to use the "symbol" of life to save a life? Which is more important, the symbol or that which it represents?

    Matthew 12:11-12, NIV. "He said to them, If any of you has a sheep and it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will you not take hold of it and lift it out? How much more valuable is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath."

    Here's one...

    If Jesus returned "invisibly" in 1914, why does Acts 1:11 state the following?

    They also said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven."

    I got a few more....but this'll do for now

    The problem is they get calls like that all the time. It's okay to do it, just to let you know that it's nothing new to them.

    these are not my questions but ones a few of the ones i have saved from here and there.

    -If prophets don't get it wrong, and they were directly inspired by jehovah, why do the society get it wrong if they are?

    -If what jw's say is true, and we are indeed living in "the last days", then why at this critical stage of human history would God allow his chosen servants to publish information that needs to be revised each year?

    -Why isn't all of the literature published on the Internet if it is indeed life-saving material?

    Ask them WHO exactly, the 'Faithfull and Discreet slave' was, that fed C.T. Russell his spiritual food that THEY claim happened according to their own defintition of how each slave class generation recieves it's spiritual food. If they come up with someone.....ask them WHAT qualified them to be of the Slave Class and be sure and ask for names.

    Tresbella good luck on your quest, but I seriously doubt you'll get past 3 or 4.....They'll probably do like most JW's do and determine you're an apostate and end the convo. Or try to get your address so you can enjoy a wonderful home bible study....

    When JWs shun a member, haven't they judged them? Who has the right to judge another?

    Can't wait to hear!!!

    Why does the awake conflict with the watchtower so often? Such as Pinata's, vaccinations, Birthdays, and Age of mankind. If the Awake is writen as Non biased and it has a different stance than the watchtower why is the watchtower writen biased?

    And mutual masturbation is masturbating while you watch the other person masturbate (it is funny how JWs is one of the few religions were subject matter like this comes up frequently if at all).

    Since we can't Jugde people as wicked(goats) since the 1995 change when Jesus Judges them in the future how can you disfellowship a potentially righteous person?

    Another thing how come the watchtower takens words and add imaginary definitions to them or corrupt the know meanings of words. Such as Porneia, Illict, Chaste, and Fornication.

    Porneia means illicit sex, or idolitry.

    Illict means illegal.

    Chaste means not guilty of illegal sex.

    Fornication comes from the word fornix or arched. Steming from an arcade. Meaning in context a arched brothel. Later became the word for prostitution in general.

    Premarital sex and sodomy in most places are no longer porneia or AKA illegal sex. So why are they dfing offenses in places that they are no longer porneia.

    According to the watchtower it sould be a DFing offense because of Paul condeming incestuos adultry. Adultry was illegal for a long time and still is in some places. Incest has become illegal in many places. During pauls day the son could be executed for such a crime. So how does this

    (1 Corinthians 5:1) 5

    Actually fornication is reported among YOU, and such fornication as is not even among the nations, that a wife a certain [man] has of [his] father.

    realate to "sodomy" or premarital sex?
