Fornication & the wtbts
by Bang inspiritually?
fornication - engaging in the pleasure that comes from spreading your 'seed' around with the ones you like the look of, and when your 'drunk' just about anyone - not particularly concerned about marriage or the result of the union.
i suppose it includes spilling your seed without impregnating, as long as you got to use the person.

Door to door
by Bang inin hope of freeing a slave, i am continuing to post about going door to door.
"do not go from house to house".
the problem with going house to house is that instead of "seeking out those who are worthy" as directed, holy things are given to dogs and they attack people with it, and so on.

Does the wtbts have a 'bible study' on this?
by Bang ini posted this on the main section but it seems that it's not a well known issue.
it's the question regarding the way jws go door to door.
[luke 10:7.23] and remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide,for the laborer deserves his wages; do not go from house to house.

Trying again for more door to door reasons
by Bang ini posted a question before regarding the way jws go door to door.
[luke 10:7.23] and remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide,for the laborer deserves his wages; do not go from house to house.
if the apostles didn't do it and jesus said not to, why do the jws do it en masse?

A paraphrase - mostly.
by Bang injason beduhn has written extensively on these comments by others, showing how worthless the comments are.
so you have a "i'll quote one scholar, you'll quote another" - game.
i thought beduhn, stafford, kedar, furuli and others had managed to stop this silly game by now.

The two witnesses and Susannah
by Bang inin the second century a mural was drawn from the susannah story on the walls of the roman catacombs - all the early texts included the story of susannah.
the reformationists/protestants took it out of their bible - i assume the anti-catholic wtbts have also.
catholics have kept the story in the bible, it's a part of daniel.. it's a story of the 'two witnesses' - elders.
