Did Jesus die on a cross or a torture stake? Who cares!! To quote a former Secretary of State, “What difference does it make”? Such trivial bull$&*t. If a person wants to believe that Jesus died, then who cares if there was a crossbeam or not or if there was one nail or two. Total crap argument that they started.

Jesus on the stake
by dothemath ini sat in recently with some relatives for the sunday meeting.
the talk was given by a bethel speaker, who at one point quoted john 20:25.
“but he said to them: “unless i see in his hands the print of the nails and stick my finger into the print of the nails and stick my hand into his side, i will never believe it.”.

Did you ever know a JW who was political?
by wolverines inone black sister would always slam the jews when there was anything on the radio or tv about the palestinian's.
i knew others who had other ideas that were strange and not neutral as we were told to be.
the black sister would dress like she was from africa in a dashiki robe from time to time.

Many became more interested in politics around 2008/2009. Some even registered to vote. -

I don’t know which is worse, the people who make a boatload of money race baiting and coming up with this crap, or the weak minded fools who follow them.

J.W's and " but that is Pagan !".
by Phizzy inthere have been a number of threads touching on this before, leolaia for one, back in the day when we had many an erudite poster, showed the pagan origins of many things, including the passover , and by extension, the jw " memorial".. what prompted my thought on this was a conversation i had the other day with a young lady, never a jw, who said the jw stance on birthday celebrations, was groundless and cruel.. i thought later that jw's do a " pick and mix " as usual, as they do with so many other things, on what they condemn as "pagan" and what they accept and practice.. the institution of marriage itself is pagan, marriages were performed long before the bible was written, and long before the nation of israel was formed.
yet jw's perform marriages, use the veil, and the ring, all pagan.
the names of the days of the week, the months of the year, all pagan.. i guess you guys can think of many more things ?

The days of the week named after gods.
The months of the year too
I seem to remember reading somewhere that at one time, the Society even proposed to change the names of the Months of the year because the names of the months have pagan origins.
One of the months was supposed to be named "Jehovah", but can't remember the other names they proposed. Can't remember where I read this either.

They Are Going To Start Clamping Down With Staying At Home - Local Needs + GB Update #4
by thedepressedsoul inmany of us have watched the gb #4 update.
most of us jumped for joy when they basically said that there will be no meeting in person for a long time to come.. one aspect we overlooked was how hard they hit home the "love of neighbor".
how this "love" is what makes a true christian and as a result our love for our neighbors will motivate us to stay at home.. well now they released a letter that is instructing all kh's to view this video during their local needs part.

I thought it was easier with the zoom meetings. You show your face for the first two minutes and then shut down the video and go and cut the grass
Agree , except the cutting the grass part..
In my case, is going elsewhere in the house where you are just in earshot of the meeting and having a nice adult beverage or two.

Yes, don't confess anything to the elders or to a PIMI. Same results!
Absolutely correct. Best advice anyone on this board can take. Never trust ANY of them. -

The lesson here is NEVER take or discuss ANY of your problems or issues to 3 unqualified know-nothing asswipes who, in reality, create more problems than they CLAIM to solve.
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say CAN and WILL be used AGAINST YOU in a Judicial Committee....
