By the way...I think old Gerrit Lösch is the one who has been in the GB the longest time now...probaly he has a lot of power about certain teachings/dogma

Gerrit Losch was actually once an apostate.
by Julia Orwell ina jw friend of mine (who was one of my besties until i told him i didn't believe jw religion anymore) used to live in austria and for a while in the 70's was in the same congregation as losch.
they used to spend some time together in the ministry.
my jw friend tells me that he and losch used to often talk about how they believed the wt was wrong about certain interpretations of the bible, for example, how at the time the wt taught that the mustard tree used by jesus in an illustration represented an evil kingdom, and losch and friend didn't think that was right.

Every "new light" has once been apostate thinking!The present teaching of the "generation" must have been severely apostate before it became official dogma..........the rank and file would not dare speaking of overlain generations before 2010!

It's better to "blame" chanse or google than Satan himself! My belief is that google brought you here! :-)
The Org doesn't like freedom of information...the reason is obvious.

Crazy Stuff Jesus Said and Did
by Oubliette inwhen we believe that the bible really is the inspired word of god, we approach it with a certain mindset that does weird things to our thinking abilities, namely shutting them off.
due to this cognitive bias, we blindly accept that whatever we read in the bible--no matter how bizarre, outrageous or non-sensical--must be there for a good reason, even if we don't or can't understand it.
the fault of course is ours, not the bible's, and most certainly not god's!

The fig tree is really strange. Did Jesus really believe that fig trees gives fruit at easter? As far as I remember this happened at easter.

There must have been JW insiders who stole that EPO....then selling it cheap to other JW's. Maybe the arrested people are JW nurses/hospital staff?

So, Not Sure...please take care. If you want to fade you have to keep quiet. Don't debate JW's
Take some time reading Steven Hassans books about cult mind control.
I wish you the best

Your facts and logics are undsiputable.
But...those elders will just ignore it. They are are trained to ignore such questions. Maybe they will talk about new and brighter light. They will just ask you if you believe that the GB are gods channel of communication. If you are doubtful about that you will get a foot in your ...you know what.
Hundreds of people have tried this...it will not work. It will only activate the "Apostate Alarm Bells" among the elders.
