Blantant coitridiction in todays wt
by elderelite inthis isnt news worthy of course, but i thought i would point it out anyway... apologies to blondie, i dont see the normal wt thread yet.... .
para 2 states that "the other sheep should never forget their salvation depends on their active support of christs anointed "brothers" [gb] still on earth".
para 13 says "he [peter] pointed out that their hope is not founded on their works, but on [the deserts gods] undeserved kindness".

Latest WT: "Facebook = a powerful medicine"??
by cedars inok, i think the writing department has well and truly lost the plot now!.
on page 14 of the august 15th watchtower, there is an extensive section on the perils of the internet, with the caption "do you heed bible-based warnings about the internet?
" in large intimidating letters.

Apostates defeated once again.....
by nananana inbefore the mentally diseased apostates could get their hands on and dissect any information regarding the convention that hadn't been released to regular publishers/elders...the society released the district program on the official site completely and utterly slaying every single demented apostate on the face of the earth.
now have fun dissecting it kiddos, while we big kids get a taste of solid, spiritual meet this summer.
continue drowning in misery while god's people go on rejoicing and enduring these last days.

Alteration in the German Watchtower about spousal physical abuse
by slimboyfat ini noticed that the german edition of the study watchtower for today didn't include the phrase about the husband "hitting" the sister.
instead it just says that he became ferociously angry, which need not imply physical abuse.
i wonder if the german translator altered it off his own back or was instructed, and how other language editions compare.

New strategy - Armageddon survival training - have the WBTS missed a trick?
by MMXIV inok so the thread from lits on the armageddon to go bag got me thinking that the wtbs have missed a trick here.. why not teach all jws first aid and simple survival techniques ready for armageddon and as a side benefit they become disaster savy helpers, basically trained good samaritans?
could this be a future strategic sideline for the wbts?.
biblical precedent (aka wbts precedent): they have taught for many years that proof the bible is inspired of god in some small part is due to survival techniques used by the israelites in the desert (hygiene etc).
