oh so it's jesus fault the spiritual food hasn't been perfect!
we your governing body are just responsible for serving it!
think about this people, they are saying it was jesus who told us the end was going to come in 1975. then before the 1914 generation passed away no later than the 1990's.
When other religions don't have something right, change their teachings, or have a scandal, failed endtime predictions--it's because they are part of Babylon the Great the World Empire of False Religion and deserve violent destruction.
When Watchtower does it: shrug. Nobody's perfect.
With so many "clarified" teachings, when did the Truth become the Truth?
i dont know where to start so why not at the beginning.
i was seeing this girl and we hit it off great chemistry.
it went from a physical to a deeper relationship.
Maybe you should read this guy's posts on the Reddit forum:

not long ago, there was a funeral for a sister i haven’t know very much, so i did not attend.
however, some old “friends” i know drove down to town to assist and i ended up spending some time with them.
quite honestly, i was happy to see them again.
I've never experienced this with coworkers. I'm always myself around them and they seem themselves as well.
With JWs, that's another story. I can so relate.
at last night's clam the circuit overseer made this comment, "we elders sometimes have to act as judges in the congregation.
but we (the elders) are imperfect, and so cannot know everything about judicial matters.
that is why we (the elders) have the biblical rule that there must be at least two witnesses to wrongdoing.
i recently came across a female youtuber called "bridget azaz".
she has made a number of youtubes recording discussions that she has had with a number of jws.
she does an excellant job and i thought i would make mention of her here.there appears to be another youtube site that either she or someone else has created with a couple of her interviews which have been touched up from the originals on her 'bridget azaz' site.this is one of them and i think you will enjoy it.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkescwpafmu&feature=em-subs_digest.
She used to post here as AuntBee.
i see serena williams is pregnant, not married and is she still a jehovahs witness?
if i have all this correct why is she not disfellowshipped?
more jw bull shit?
Maverick JWs like this (either official or unofficial JWs) still puzzle me.
do you think serena will get df'd now that she has a bun in the oven?
or was she ever baptized, in that case she would just be marked, right?.
Evidently she was never baptized.
Here is a good sampling of what JWs think about this:
Nope.
Any prooftexts for going door-to-door is mistranslated and misinterpreted.

at this week clam meeting, jeremiah 29:10 is discussed:.
jer 29:10—how does this verse demonstrate the accuracy of bible prophecy?
the mistranslation of this verse is the basis of the idea that the jews spend 70 years in exile in babylon.
It is all about contextual reading.
Something JWs rarely do.
The “topical study” method is really about stringing together phrases from isolated verses in disparate books. These isolated verses are memorized as prooftext. It is not true exegesis.

it made me fell like, la ti da!
you helped members of your own church..
Yep, elders will be sent to remind the victims to turn over their insurance checks to Watchtower. Which is why only "fellow believers" are helped.
