Why can you not question/double standard
by Ticker ini have been recently reading isocf and am now on the indoctrination chapter.
what always gripes me with the witnesses has been this one simple double standard of theirs.
when you look at a watchtower or any publication of theirs, it has two messages.

Watchtower Blotch of Alpha and Omega interpretation
by Ticker innow to cover a point of a different nature but one i feel very important, a point in which the society has deliberatly tried to gloss over in their manipulating of scripture.

OT vs. NT
by Ticker inwho here has had or still has problems trying to equate or harmonize the old testament with the new testament?
i do and i always have had a very hard time accepting some of the things in the old testament, etc.
incest, murder, killing of innocent people, murdering children over petty issues, men having 100's of wives, all the idols that were present in the old testament temples(cherubs and golden bowls, excetera excetera), the seemingly merciless nature of god toword many while yet forgiving others for grave sins such as adultery, or the delivering of punishment to innocent people in order to discipline the sinner(example-david's sensus of the israelite nation in which they were destroyed not him).

Did the WTBTS pay its French Tax Debt
by Ticker injust curious as i never did here what became of the tax penalty levied against the org.. are they still trying to fight it in court?
