  no. I would make them fork over their ill gotten gain, free labour, no taxes , but reap benefits, -- to those that toiled, serving the lie.

  Foreign Language Field and Fading

  by NoviceLocs14 in

  hey guys.

  first of all, i want to thank everyone for being so welcoming and helpful on this forum.... i was thinking about my last 3 years as a jw when i was attending the portuguese congregation and learning that language to bring in more converts.

  interestingly, we were told not to attend meetings in our native language in order to immerse ourselves in the new language.

  It prevented my in-born children to fully indoctrinated ( Most of the brainwashing happens at meetings, not at home) so: My daughter had reams of notes of scripture numbers without ever knowing their content > One day she said " Hey they are saying "satan"" ha ha. We did not follow the wt's order for special pioneers to start using the territory's language at home.

  Highly recommended, join a foreign language group! and: bye bye!

  thank you for posting that, and read the comments. I had the integrity of my neck threatened by a muslim in the h2h "work"years ago.

  Insane what is happening in Europe, but as some commentators of the article point out, this welcoming of all these males is driven by the ladies' like Merkel's desire for exotic lovers, the females, who supply the votes. Stupid german males, toiling in factories, while these lotharios, funded by tax Euros, pander to the ladies. And there is seems a sinister design behind the destruction of these divers European civilisations that have lifted mankind to the heights it enjoys today.

  who knows perhaps, his lady employer, Ms. Fugman* had developed a taste for a fresher more appetizing male import. and he will get off almost free, how dare you punish a" lese majeste " natural reaction of a mid easterner?

  * what an appropriate name. from "Fugen"= joining together, like in cabinetmaking. or other similar sounding F words.

  Convention invitations

  by dothemath in

  so everyone is supposed to get all excited about the invitation work starting tomorrow, according to the announcement from the platform.. maybe this makes sense if you're giving out invitations in the city where the convention is, but what if you're many hours away?.

  a huge part of western canada is scheduled to attend edmonton alberta this july.

  so how does that go over giving out invitations in winnipeg, about a 13 hour drive(that's just driving time).. i know some are actually planning on flying there, so i can't see getting excited about getting the public to make the trek.. i was curious how this is going over in other areas?.

  If ever just .5 % of the invited come, there would be chaos, there actually is, at 8 am on every day. Why don't they mention the 8 am opening, then the invited would get a taste of Christianity insanity in action, and a foretaste of the "New World" to come. Convention 5 hours away, even an possible overnight wait. nuts for nothing

  The spinning blade of a Sword and the 2 Angels guarding the gate....

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  for some reason i found myself shaking my head once again in disbelief at the story in genesis.. amongst all things, the very concept of a "flaming sword" spinning around and blocking the "entrance to the garden of eden" is so stupid!.

  do people really believe that as a fact?.

  seriously, swords were not even invented at that time!

  It was written when swords were already around. sustained spinning by itself was new though, without axle or visible support, not pivoting on cherub's fingers. Would have looked something like a swastika with the trailing flames. and it was a defensive weapon. any animal casualties? sliced and diced?

  Why did one of the cherubs not stop Cain, rather than just standing there? may be he was the first fulfillment of the wt cart cabal ?

  There was the "race" question even in the last wt study. par 18 "... prejudice-- hurt you--"

  caught one elder in a real bad ethnic ( not black skin) comment. that would be a serious human rights violation in secret judgement sessions for wt.

  Creation account is the creation of Moses

  by venus in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the word `intelligence' [from inter, “between” + legere, “ to read”] would mean ‘discern things as though reading in between the lines.

  now read in between the lines of what moses wrote; his favored and frequent statement is this: ‘obedience to god means blessings, and disobedience means maledictions.’ (deut 28:1-68; 30:15-18) let us try to discern his motive behind this statement.. .

  when moses wanted to present 10 commandments and other laws, he naturally wanted to prepare the israelites with a mind-set that ‘we must obey god, otherwise it is problem for us.’ the best way for this was to modify a well-known story of fall from other cultures.

  The twirling blades would have taken the responsibility for any injuries off the hapless angels, standing there for hundreds of years until the flood.

  they were guarding the tree of life, a recommended , allowed food, an allowance never revoked. so figure, we relied on the tree for continued life, never had inherent everlasting guarantee in the first place,

  Jesus's ransom? open the gates. bad story writing.

  isnt nice to see the governing body being so humble, meek and not seeking their own importance?.

  Shouldn't someone speak to David Splane about his bad example? careful:

  no, leave them alone, the class lady he is hooked up with "bras sous bras" ("arm under arm" in french not the bras you are thinking about) is his wife. Couples tend to loosen up when in proximity? starting with the tie? where does this all end?
