Show me something better
by WildeLover interry started a really good thread a little while ago.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/258731/1/where-did-pastor-russell-get-his-truth.
it reminded me of what the jw who studied with me and brought me into the truth said.. she said show me something better.
she qualified this by saying show me another religion that teaches the basics.. i changed subject but i suppose basics are.

Education and dumbing down
by WildeLover ini have a theory that the denigrating of education that continues to occur at assembles.
convention etc is a subtle means the wbts use to keep the members "dumbed down" so they wont develop and think to ask questions?.
i just feel after my time doing a degree and a masters that this is the case- feel more enlightened culturally and mentally and can see a lot of the narrow-mindedness of the other jws.. .

How does the WT explain Luke 10:7?
by WildeLover inlooking thur wt cd i dont see any "decent" explanation of luke 10:7?.
(luke 10:1-7) 10 after these things the lord designated seventy others and sent them forth by twos in advance of him into every city and place to which he himself was going to come.
2 then he began to say to them: the harvest, indeed, is great, but the workers are few.

Victim tells of sexual abuse ordeal at hands of stepfather
by WildeLover ina disgusting case in the ukman who was sexually abused by his stepfather when he was a boy has told how the ordeal had long- lasting effects.. nick french, 42, was tormented by gary moscrop, inset below, as a boy growing up in brighton, including sexual abuse and psychological cruelty.
last wednesday, his abuser was finally convicted of the historical offences after mr french stood up in front of a jury to recount the abuse, which happened in brighton and sussex between 1979 and 1985. bravely waiving his anonymity to speak to the argus, mr french, who now lives in cumbernauld, glasgow, said: it me a long time to work out that i had not done anything wrong myself and nothing i had done warranted that behaviour towards me.. i have had great assistance from the doctors and, since going back to the police a couple of years ago, it has been a huge weight off my shoulders putting everything down and saying this happened.. moscrop, 76, of hendon street, brighton, was jailed last thursday for ten years after being convicted of ten offences against mr french, including indecent assault, gross indecency with a child, buggery and child cruelty.. mr french first spoke up about a small portion of the abuse in 1987 when he was 15, leading to moscrop being cautioned.
he was finally prosecuted after mr french revealed the full scale of the abuse in 2012, when he could no longer repress it after having children of his own.

Organisation and The Ethiopian Eunuch
by WildeLover ini have been thinking about the " need" for an organisation for xians... i mean the ee went on his merry way back to candace in ethiopia, a long way from the governing body of jerusalem and the effect of paul's letters so he must have done his worhsipping from a distance and without the "benefit" of the governing body's sage advice..... .
also another thing if i were on the "gb" of the first century i would be extremely miffed that paul was the one being inspired to write the fundamental doctrines of christianity, not me or my fellow older men.
today i began reading don camron's captive of a concept!
