  The WT is again reminding women of their "proper role"

  by mjarka911 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the 3/1/06 wt questions from readers is discussing 1 cor 14:33,34 and explains the phrase "keep silent".

  after the usual claptrap and disclaimers (like how sometimes women have to substitute for baptized men in a congregation setting) - it concluded by saying women keep silent by "not raising argumentative questions that could challenge the authority of those who teach.

  " how do the women swallow this stuff and still feel grateful for "rich spiritual food"?

  Amazingly Yes. As a matter of fact I just recieved a phone call about a half hour ago. It went something like this:

  • Ring Ring:
  • I said Hello
  • Is So and so there
  • I replied No
  • The phone hung up

  What the moron on the other line forgets about is modern technology. I used my caller ID to identify her. It was this sister from Conn. trying to find out if my daughter was home so she could talk to her daughter. How rude. They have been shunning me for some time now even though I have not been DF'd as of yet. But believe me word has gotton out about me. Ask me if I really care or give a rats ass?

  WT quoting things

  by badboy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i notice that the wt does a lot of quoting from various sources eg.

  for their creation/ecolution and their magazines.. do they ever check whether their sources of information are reliable?.

  what does all this quoting `prove', when i can do selective quoting that `proves' fairies exist, give me various books about fairies and i could cut and paste to `prove' fairies exist

  I also think the WTS is using double standards in this case as well. They say to the R/F that it can be considered apostasy to read literature that is contrary to its beliefs. Yet they quote from the Catholic encyclopedia and other sources all the time. Somebody had to read that in order to quote misquote from it. Just my 2 cents worth.

  SOME GENUINE QUESTIONS FOR PMJ

  by diamondblue1974 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i have some genuine questions for you pmj which i hope you will take the time to answer;

  i was brought up as a witness and left over a decade ago; i have always struggled with these points and hope you can provide an explanation.

  the main answer to the questions in relation to wickedness being permitted is that jehovah is proving satan to be a liar (in other words to prove a point).
