10Raising a teenager outside of “the truth”
by StephaneLaliberte ini was raised as a jw and left the group as many of the teachings don’t align with my core values.
now, forward almost 10 years, my wife and i are raising our kids through puberty and i have to admit, this challenge is not easy and seems to be even more difficult in that my own upbringing was very different.
i find it hard to compare how i was raised with what i now must do for my own kids.

Waton, what are you talking about?
SORRY MINIMUS, I did not live long enough below the Mason Dixon line , in Dixi, to connect with your USA specific June freedom events. enJoy \
A broader perspective is calendar based, astronomy.
North of the NE border they will celebrate "St. Jean", 24 June, sun worship really.
"Vivre le Québec libre", as De Gaulle would say.

What Is Truth?
by minimus injust because you believe something as truth, it doesn’t make it truth.
religious leaders may be admired and believed but they could be dead wrong.
politicians can spout out “facts” that support their truth yet once further evidence comes through these facts are questionable.

Waton, I think you miss my point. Humans don't limit "truth" to objective facts
Otwo, you are so right, once one realizes, that that is the case, truth takes on a completely different meaning. it is not really true, factual any more.

based on the freezing and boiling properties of water on that same planet.
OTWO, good point. so, use Kelvin then, based on absolute Zero, H2O comprises some of the most abundant elements in the Universe, acts in the same way everywhere in the universe, a true standard of truth. Aliens in Andromeda would agree.
try the hot basin, cold basin experiment. opinions, impressions do not change the truth, the facts.

what difference does it make??They were accepting a meaning that was FALSE.
m: not only that, but since the shitty brown "LGbT -- Men are liars " book, then was a must to study with candidates before baptism, it exposed the hapless publishers to being pegged in their communities as false prophets, by knowledgeable members of "Babylon the Great"
The churches had the truth, wt was the apostasing false prophet, , the publishers the victims in between.

give the questions you are allowed to answer. Science operates along these lines too. It’s a good system
Vdh. The scientific method, requires peer review, rigorous, open debate.
wt ranks with the stalins, hitlers of this world in willingness to engage in debate.
they have officially banned it. ban even open questions, prescribe the questions you are allowed to entertain, answer.

If they are not lying, they are telling the truthOTWO, that is a very narrow definition of "truth".
The truth of the matter, any matter to my mind, encompasses all the facets that can be discerned. orr not yet, even,
one's narrow or broad perspective about the truth, the facts is just opinions, with a limited shelf life.
