I cant imagine what it would do to a brain to have the already stilted correct wt speak imposed on you in that exacting language. Would not Bretzel be a fitting expression?

the bible god can not lie, but promotes lying prophets, today's wt study
by waton instudy 32, par 7 , cites 1 king 19-22 to prove that "jehovah" humbly asks angels their opinion.
-- not true, in effect.
the request was: who is going to go forth and lie for us, give a false prophecy?

--the two wills of God,-- as God's ways are not our ways--
JB: it is good to discuss the bible as a literary work, as we do Shakespeare or Goethe or Voltaire in school. I believe bible writing was human's best attempt to fashion a person/creator, his dealings according to their knowledge at the time.
A being that fashioned this immense universe, is uncreated, always existed and always will, is so beyond our mental capacity, that subjecting him, or our imagined image of him to psycho ananlisis is no more than discussing the above authors, or their writings.
The works of creation speak for themselves. Many here are probably theists, deists, --atheist only in protest. afier thought:
atheist are like wt, they dare god to show himself through his displeasure with them.

The Worst doctrine of JWs- Ressurection and Paradise
by HowTheBibleWasCreated inbesides the facts that one needs to take numerous verses from the ot and nt and smash them together to make this theology (which works out to a modern day zorastriaism) the whole concept is realy horrific.. first it teachs that your life is worthless and should be exploited until the next one in paradise/or heaven.
second it teachs that you dead loved ones are still around either in heaven or jeblooper's memory.
so don't greive.

wt is lying. their pictures show hand-hewn mansions on acre lots, all lakeside. with mountain views. With tens billions resurrected. this can never happen. May be after 99.9% of the population that is "in the four corners " of the New Earth, after the 1000 years, will be killed, again, the 3rd time,--- perhaps. but everlasting life here? , impossible. the sun/earth is already half way through their life cycle. will have to resurrect them too when they die.
wt is depreciating the value of life now, the only one we know ro exist. If we do not use it well, waste it on illusions, why would that qualify us for another better try?

JB: thanks for the links, to sum up:
This 'the end justifies the means' of god's dealings would , if true,
be very hard on the recipients at the lower end, and in the spirit of the article. Would a humble god not be eminently concerned with the little ones, even of the birds, that have only one life to live?

In the cited bible passage, not only does god allow the lying false prophets io start their eception, but assures them of their success, while the true prophet languishes in prison. so,
by using this twisted story as a prop for the "humility" of the bible god, wt writers imply that in some cases ( possibly their's), would be supportive of false prophets. in other words,
all of wt prophetic failures are really the creator of the universe's fault.

Cast a wide net. there just might be a guy who, interacting with you, is reminded of his mother, who might not have been a barbie. W
i think you have scared miss mary away. sld
no, I did not mean to, because my statement above is based on a true live experience:
A very handsome, intelligent brother, accountant, manager who everyone was sure would marry a trophy bride, like I did, silenced everyone in awe when he revealed his choice, a homely, fair sized warm hearted sister, (and it was not a shot -gun wedding). why? she was a younger edition of his good mother.
Awise choice: he would be never bothered by unrestrained romeos butting in. so:
miss mary take heart. and
in the title you misspelled "fining". it is
fine- ing. fine tuning your choice finally.

study 32, Par 7 , cites 1 King 19-22 to prove that "Jehovah" humbly asks angels their opinion. -- not true, in effect
The request was: who is going to go forth and lie for us, give a false prophecy?
true, various method suggested might have been entertained, but in the end it was "jehovah" who gave the command to launch the false prophecy campaign.
This is a wt mind control tactic to plant in the Rank & File the idea, that it is ok to be a false prophet. Just like the Jonah dilemma to preach destruction, with a deadline, only to see an all fore-knowing god waffle on him. and:
Jesus humbly did not foretell the timing of the end, "for only the father knows", but
wt inc writers have no such qualms or humility.
wt writers, elders should be prepared to have their actions questioned, it has happened with justification to better persons than them!.

welcome to the site with such diverse subjects to discuss.
Cast a wide net. there just might be a guy who, interacting with you, is reminded of his mother, who might not have been a barbie.
People's expectations are warped by the faces figures they see >12 hours on their screens, dont be one of them. I knew a single sister that watched nothing but the Gary Grant movie channel.
If you live in a rich country, try moving to a "developing nation" where the need {yours) for a mate and their's (to live with opportunities) is great.
Evolution has dealt you a rough card, dont blame the males. You look pregnant to them.
forget about exercise. it is your food intake. If they fatten up cows, pigs and chickens with hormones, how do you expect to be slim on a rich diet?
1200 calories, plant based.
In the end, live within your means happily, . married or not.
dont believe wt writers who promise you a perfect mate in your life time.

Act 1;7
IT IS NOT GIVEN TO YOU TO UNDERSTAND TIMES AND SEASONS.
