Want dialog/transcript of 2009 D/C apology on 1914,25 and 75.
by Aussie Oz indoes anybody have a recording or transcript, anything!
on the wording and even tone of voice used to 'apologize' for these years mis-predictions?.
stuff like this will be invaluable in helping young witnesses realize that they need to look back to last century.

Has the Watchtower ever admitted making a mistake?
by moomanchu inwith all their flip flops, errors and changes, do you know of any printed admission of mistakes made ?.
have they ever apologized for wrong doctrine?.
i think it's because of too much pride..

I was offered to read a book published by the WTB, that explained past 'errors' and the history of the JW's (a book on newlight?).... this I feel was a 'last ditch attempt' to keep me studying with them after I 'resigned from any further association' with the org.... I declined to read it...
I was never told the title but Iam sure someone on here must know which book this is!!! anyone???

What has happened in the last 10 years since i left? Scandals? Doctrine changes?
by Aussie Oz ini have been out since 1998 and have rarely seen another jw since.
i didn't leave because i found anything wrong, i just didn't want to live the life anymore.
i still defended the witnesses at times.

Faithful and Discreet Slave
by stillin ini'm sure that this has been discussed before, but bear with me while i share my little insight.. the scripture about the fds is found in jesus description of the last days in matthew 24. not in mark 13, nor luke 21. those other writers didn't consider it important enough to include it in their writings.
it is the only mention, as far as i know, of any such "arrangement," yet on face value, if you are just reading the bible, it seems more like one of jesus' thought-provoking rhetorical questions, rather than a part of the sign of the last days.
no "two or three witnesses," yet this one scripture has become a rallying cry for a whole religion, consisting of millions of adherents!.

If it were only that simple Jeff...
One verse gone out of the bible, and the GB goes bye bye.
*sigh*........... frustrating isn't it?

Jesus turns water into wine...
by trueblue ini heard a story a long time ago that the bible is like a bottle of fine wine that everyone has been taking a drink out of and putting a little water in it so the bottle still appears to be full, but there has been so many people that have taken turns before us taking a drink of fine wine and replacing it with water that there is only a little bit of fine wine left in the bottle but there is still some fine wine in the bottle.. john 10:27my sheep listen to my voice, and i know them, and they follow me.. i was also told that in the pass that some rulers found that it was easier to control people by putting things in the bible, like putting in the bible that the people were to give a percentage of all there earnings.
it was easier to get the people to give them money if they believed god required it then to get them to give money because a man required it.
history is not my good subject so it is hard for me to determine weather this statement is true, but i have observed that people have at the very least altered the words in the bible to help you understand the bible according to what they believe.. any inputs?.

You know when your dating......
by LoriJis inyou know when you are dating you do all those cute things for each other...all the little text messages, random calls, make out sessions, cuddling.
it's great and you love it.
but should that all stop or change because you get married?

Romance???? I forgot what that was! if my hubby brought home flowers I would demand to know exactly what hes done WRONGE... and that is sooo sad
You do get tired of hinting that would you like a bit more "romance", conversation etc.... but if you've got to ask for it, thats a good sign that the 'honeymoon' is definatly over!!!!!!
Shit! I just realized how crap my marriage really is....... I'd ask to go on a date with him, but what would we talk about?? I think I've just spent the last 8 years of my life living with a total stranger- who the hell did I marry..... ?????
