watchtower: "if we were following a man undoubtedly it would be different with us; undoubtedly one human idea would contradict another and that which was regarded as light one or two or six years ago would be regarded as darkness now.

but with god there is no variableness, neither shadow of turning, and so it is with truth; any knowledge or light coming from god must be like its author.

a new view of truth never can contradict a former truth.

Yup on so many levels. Just look at what happened to many of hitlers henchmen when they tried the "I was just following orders" defence.

KS10 Chapter Five Discussion

by yknot in

reiteration that the below is a discussion of chapter 5 from 'shepherding the flock of god' which is published by the wts of penn/ny.

the wts is a non-profit that distributes it's publications free of charge worldwide.

this particular publication while not for sale (well none of the wts publications are either technically) is not distributed broadly but is still nonetheless part of their bible educational work, while not required donations are joyful accepted by all jws for the purpose of this work....... here are the previous discussion threads:.

What part about 'the elders should contact the "police" do they not get with child sexual abuse.' I really think the "law of the land" should have access to this and straighten them out on the proper procedure and how it does not involve contacting a branch office.

yep. there are so many things that are like that when I look back on my life in. And yet when I listen to my brother still in and the anguish it produces in his life and still he refuses to even listen. He said to his daughter (not in anymore) just the other day when with tears of frustration he said "buutt there just has to be a truth and if this isn't it what is". I realize that the greatest forte that they possess is their ability to demonize everything from religion to the world in general. If you have been in long enough you have been brainwashed into thinking that there is no good in the world around you. Then when the cracks in the "truth" get to big it seems that there is nothing left. It is a sick cult.

as to source I believe it to be a copy of a mural at the jersey city assembly hall. When I was there I was quite impressed with what they had done. Since then I have to ask why they expended such effort to transform this old building to its former glory. What you picked up on is quite hilarious though. What is probably equally as funny however is that when taking the tour of the building, one of the highlights shown is downstairs where the womens washrooms, a row or two of I don't recall the total number but lots.

So then there. You are saying that there can be many "sons" of God but not of his ilk. That means then that all the angels are some sort of hybrid freaks?
