omg. What.... What in the world.... What the heck....
I thought this was SATIRE!! I mean, really?? How can they be so..... so.... so utterly..... words fail me ....
We need to compile a "stupidest moments" thread of these broadcasting "highlights"....
I would open it with Lett saying "Welcome!" (Very beginning of Jan. 2016 broadcast), to the money begging from May 2015, to Splane's generation chart, to "the little cart with a big heart" & accompanying insipidly stupid song.... to this... this abomination of bread illustration.... to.... whatever other ridiculous inanities these leaders spout.....
Like a "Best of...!" Compilation. Oh yes, and end it with Splane (with weird & uncomfortable "helper" sitting beside him) crinkling up his face in a creepy & desperate attempt to show sincerity while he says, "We love you!"
*shudder*

Who did you believe the scriptures were describing when you were a JW?
by James Mixon in
1. watchtower
2. bible
it never hit me until i was out.

matt:23;4 "they tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them.

on other people shoulders".
Muddy Waters

It would be very interesting to ask a JW this question. Who are these scriptures talking about? -- who puts these heavy loads upon their flock?
And the j-dub would answer something like, "Why, the clergy of Christendom, of course." (an aside, have you ever noticed how often JWs and the publications preface or end a sentence with '... of course...'??)
And then you would ask, "And what are these heavy loads and burdens they put upon their flock..?"
Yes, I would love to ask those questions.....
(... and I used to wonder too, about Jesus' words about his load being light, and that we would find refreshment! It sure didn't feel that way!!)

Bwhahaha, Sonewall! "Invisibly present!"
I'm sure our endurance & faith will be rewarded at the proper time. Just need to keep on the watch.
We can encourage each other all the more so as we behold the video drawing near....

Physical vs. Mental
by Coded Logic in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i used to think there was a true dichotomy between things in the physical world and things that were abstract or imagined.

but now i can't seem to understand why i ever thought that way.. i consider the mental to be a subset of the physical world (just as trout are a subset of fish).

all ideas, abstractions, imaginings, etc.
Muddy Waters

That is so cool -- I have been having similar thoughts.
Thinking about dementia -- when a person loses their memories, what is left? It seems a person is "made" from their collection of memories.... Yet we don't get many of those memories without experience.
And imagination doesn't compare with reality... Yet when all one has left is imagination or memory.... oop, haha, I think I started falling asleep. I have no idea where I was going with that thought ....
