Funny Watchtower Article on Homosexuality

by garbonzo in

transsexualism is a word appearing with growing frequency in the news.

a transsexual is not merely a transvestite (one who dresses in clothes of the opposite sex), nor necessarily a homosexual (though that may be the case).

a transsexual is a person who rejects the sex with which he or she was born and takes up the life of the other sex.

Also every time that article is shown to me by the elders i just chuck it back in there faces and say. There is no medical evidence that supports thier theory.. Would God prefer someone to be alive or dead?

I'm my expieriance being a post op TG i wouldn't be here now writing this if i remained as born; granted finding true happiness is hard because i will always be the way i am but by having surgery life is more berable and i can function as a normal human being.. To me this is more important than than being trully unhappy to the point of commiting suicide..

Yes thats a proper " give it to him in full, no holds barred" i can understand why people are so angry, but at the end of the day sometimes it's out of our control.

He'll find out for himself through study when things dont add up.. esp when he compares scrips from NWT and KJB..

/for me there is to many discrepancies( sorry a bit trollied so speling is worse than ever) lol

Dear WTS, if higher education is a waste of time, don't eat the fruit it bares

by arko_n9ne in

it's 9pm over here, so good evening to those without the sun, and good morning to those who just got it from us.. i've been pretty aggitated with the needless demonizing of higher education from the wts.

they make subtle gestures but their lawyers are too clever to let them say it directly these days.. but i was rereading the february 2011 awake magazine.

i use my watchtowers and awakes for giggles on the can these days.

Yes keeping up with the times!!

Dear Dylan

PLease keep a lateral mindset when studying WT puplications.. This has been my mistake for 28 years scince i was a child.. some things they teach seem to be accurate.. i may be wrong.. But for me it's the consant flip flops new understanding.. At the end of the day the GB are a group of men instutionilised in bethel... every one makes mistakes... but when it affects the whole of the followers detrimentaly then you need to feel in you heart and do ub biased investigation s on things they teach.

I'm new the this site myself...

Others- please tell me if i'm giving wrong information..

by Yan Bibiyan in

while taking another stab at the practices of mainstream christianity (to hold services on a particular day), the wt strangely explains what "abstaining from blood" means in acts 15:.

september awake 2011. on page 10:.

"...the scriptures indicate that some commands.
