Thanks, I did say to her that I think that as far as I can remember it sounds like it could be argued in her favor. Like you say, just say it is so, and it is.

Hi, Fair point...why are you bothering. This woman wants to be able to satisfy her jw family that she has been wronged, and wants to be able to justify, using jw logic that she is able to move on with her life. She would like to be able to do that with the possibility of being able to still speak to any of her family that might still want to talk and have contact with her.
I know it is twisted, but then that is what happens after you have been in and are moving away from this destructive sect/cult.

Let me get this straight.
by elder-schmelder ininsight book under chronology:.
other factors allowing for differences.
casual students of ancient history often labor under the misconception that the cuneiform tablets (such as may have been used by berossus) were always written at the same time or shortly after the events recorded on them.

Hi.... remember it is the wt way of discounting the fact that they have it wrong. So regardless of what any secular source might say, if you bag and rubbish the source, that means it is no longer accurate [in jw speak that is] Remember the comments of Ray Franz in Crisis of Conscience. That was part of his job on the writing committee. If you cant find a credible source to back your erroneous position, then criticize the cridible ones. Make them sound wrong.
The have forgotten about all the archeological work done in the 20th century that supports legitimate history

Hi All,
I have been asked about a situation in which a former witnesses ladies now ex-husband has been caught exposing himself, and this has gone on for at least 15 years. He has also exposed himself to some close family members. The question relates to the WT explaination of "porniea". This is obvoiusly beyond masturbation. Whilst I am not sure if the victim actually touched or was force to touch him, it could be argued that there was another person involved willingly or unwillingly. While I have pdf copies of the ks91 and a word document copy that includes my notes, I have been out of the system for over 4 years now and it may not be up to date.
What [in the wt mind] constitutes porniea?
Thanks in advance........... It is not much fun trying to link back to that mind set!

This will be my 4th non attendance. Had the "elders" here last night with an invite...well, will you come? No I will not be coming. Why would I attend the memorial and not attend any other meeting?
They are all good when you don't go, and it shows that I don't harbor some kind of respect for their arrangement either. Brain dead.

Out of interest, and not wanting some great debate, doesn't the verses in Romans where it talks about the spirit bearing witness etc, say just prior to that that whoever is led by god's spirit is a son of god?
Dont all dubz feel they are being led by god's spirit? They should all be partaking.

Another Shamorial Question...........
by Vachi 8 He Is intoday at the meeting the dub made the statement that there might be some newbies who take a drink and eat the bread and that the dubs shouldn't tackle them and say they can't.
the ones other than these that do take are the annointed.
my question is how is one supposed to know that they are part of this 144,000?

Man, you are being too logical.... ask your PO these questions, he will kick you out in a heart beat! There are way too many loose ends in the dogma as you have found out. Once you find one piece of bs, you see the rest very quickly...... Run forest run

Hi all,
Haven't been in for a while. Just wanted to find out when the memorial is. The locals have been in a frenzy.... so should have been able to guess it must be close.
BTW I wouldn't go even if it WERE true.!!

" he was momentarily stunned and said "well, when have things ever been this bad before?

Why cant the JW's see the need to hand this stuff over to the police first, then handle it when they are finished?
