" Has the Governing Body Ever Been Right " ?
No
i asked this question to a relative after mentioning several situations where teachings were changed or readjusted (new light) and they have two reasons.
yes, they are correct because look at how the preaching work has grown through the decades and the advancements in witnessing and the second reason was the doctrine of the trinity and how the society opposes that.
i didn’t really have a response, especially for the trinity doctrine.. does the governing body have the rejection of the trinity belief correct?.
" Has the Governing Body Ever Been Right " ?
No
just had a sick conversation with my jw father when picking up by kid.
dad: so things looking really bad in n korea huh?.
they rattle the cage every few years and everyone seems to just appease them.. dad: yeah, but this new guy, i mean he is just sounds plain crazy.
I seriously doubt that the North Korean leader will give up his nukes. And, allegedly that's what Trump has stated publicly that will determine if the summit is " successful " or not. So I'm not too hopeful that any success is going to come out of this meeting

i have been rereading a lot about rutherford lately; about his personality and the kind of person he was.
i have come to the conclusion that he was a lot like donald trump.. he was an accused womanizer.. he was a narcissist with a self inflated ego.
he claimed to be persecuted by the media all the time.
Reading a book on King Henry VIII and his 6 wives right now.
Henry VIII = Donald Trump
Well, O.K. I'll make exceptions for " The Donald " - He hasn't executed or lopped off any of his wives or mistresses heads yet, emphasis on the " yet " .

Been listening to lots of Tom Petty recently, learning some of his songs
i had to go into a office close to a supermarket on a very high traffic expressway with next to no persons on the street anyway ever near.
i see this jw lady about 65 yrs old standing there alone with 2 bags of groceries staring at the catholic church one side across the interstate road and the kh across the other side of the highway.
cross bronx expressway.
JUNK YARD DOG- Am I correct in my assumption that you're a Trump supporter ?
( Figured I'd go down that rabbit hole, what the hell. )

LONG HAIR GAL- I'm glad you didn't listen to those people and kept your job. I never listened to most of the alleged " advice " or " counsel " I received from elders either- most of them didn't know their ass from a hole in the ground anyway. I was considered a pretty " independent thinking " JW years ago when I was still in- the dangerous type who might help people start thinking ! LOL. Take care, Peace out, Mr. Flipper

The lady commentator at the 12 minute mark saying about JW's " people's lives seem not to be destroyed with any financial burden " . WTF ?
Is she uninformed- or what ? It costs hundreds of $$$ to go to assemblies , especially if you had children. Most JW's have to take menial jobs because they are told they aren't allowed to get a college education which further drives down their income earning potential. A typical JW is counseled by the elders sternly if they miss any meetings due to working nights when meetings are scheduled - thus pressuring Witnesses to either quit their jobs or find any other employment where they won't miss any meetings. ( Sigh )
This show needs a real moderator who knows what the hell she's talking about. She's pretty uninformed

STILL TOTALLY ADD- I'm so sorry my friend that the show caused you much angst and you had flashbacks coming forth from your experience. Please know and be aware of my friendship to you and your wife here on the board. Your reaction was totally understandable from suffering abuse years earlier. Just want you to know me and my wife care. Sincerely, hang in there friend, Peace out, Mr. Flipper
