Well this is just shocking news. I can’t imagine the WBTS telling the rank and file to stay away from the Internet. I wonder why they would do something like this? Hmmmmm….

Here is something some newspapers have done when a JW convention comes to town.
The newspaper prints an article about the Witnesses and the convention, and then delivers the papers to places around where the convention is being held so that the JWs will buy copies of the paper.
The newspapers do this so as to increase sales. Sneaky aren't they?

Reading the Awake is equivalent to a college education did you not know?

There's also the article "Jicama....a healthful
Mexican snack", that I found most fascinating. I'm sure you will too.

The WT is against the internet and newspapers???? Both easily obtainable sources of information????
NO WAY!!!!
I wonder if they once read an Awake! article about marketing??? Surely the college degree didn't have anything to do with them being good at their jobs!The newspapers do this so as to increase sales. Sneaky aren't they?

talking to. The article talks about the fact there are websites up that claim to be for Jehovahs Witnesses, but are really apostate websites in
disguise. The article also warns of the dangers of ...NEWSPAPERS!!! Newspapers often do not tell the truth about things and we must use
discernment in determining what is true and what may be lies.
Integ, Good topic.
People should use the same discernment when reading anything even WT literature. How can a youth or anyone else be sure that the REAL apostates and liars are not at the WT?
Cygnus, I agree with you, the WT does practice "information control" and that should make an honest person curious about what the WT does not want people to know.

I can remembeer wheen the internet when it first came out full force in the home, the witnesses claiming how evil it was, then all of a sudden most witnesses had a computer and internet. So I guess all those dubs are getting their internet turned off.
