"Must We Always Tell The Truth?" WT Feb.1
by Cellist inif this has been brought up already, i apologize.
but, we just received the latest magazine with the title, "must we always tell the truth?".
i was curious to see how they handled this topic, with their "theocratic warfare" (aka lying) in mind.

Disfellowshiped/Disassociated VS. Other non JWs
by pierogi inif someone is disfellowshiped or disassociates themselves from the jws, they are to be considered "worldly", right?
if jws can talk to other non jws, why are non jws who used to be .
jws so much worse that they can't talk to them?

Not an Oprah fan?
by looking_glass injoin the club.
first of all i am in chicago, so we get tons of stories about the woman.
is she any different from any other wealthy powerful person, probably not, but she certainly is not the golden child she presents herself.. 1) she can be demanding (not any different from many wealthy rich people) and if you do not ask how high when she says jump, you are fired.. 2) she is known to agree to something, disappear for a while and then people get a form letter from "her people" saying that oprah cannot participate in ___[fill in appropriate word here]_____.

Caught in the headlights
by Honesty ini recently asked a jw to explain the discrepancies in the following scriptures between 1 corinthians 10:3-4 and 1 corinthians 10:9 in their new world translation:.
first i presented the scripture as it is rendered in another modern day translation, as it is rendered in the original greek and as it is rendered in the latin vulgate:.
1 corinthians 10:3-4 they all ate the same spiritual food, 4 and all drank the same spiritual drink.

Why does the WTS only look for righteous members?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inmark 2:13-17jesus went out again beside the lake; the whole crowd gathered around him, and he taught them.
as he was walking along, he saw levi son of alphaeus sitting at the tax booth, and he said to him, follow me.
and as he sat at dinner in levis house, many tax-collectors and sinners were also sitting with jesus and his disciplesfor there were many who followed him.

Some JW's will never see the light
by Pwned ini heard my father telling my sister that yesterday's watchtower study contained new information, ie 'new light'.
the thing is he was excited about it, said it gave him goosebumps.
how does that even make any sense?
