we're god's reliable mouthpiece, but not prophet?
jesus inspected all faiths in 1914?.
does everyone agree or is it more convoluted than that?.
Authority is automatically conferred to the winning aspirants to the F&DSlave title based on their works, message.
The Watchtower message, a winner: the central doctrine from 1918-1925 was: " The world has ended, Millions now living will never die" . a winner.
The world ended invisibly in 1914, as "Jesus" started ruling invisibly again.
Such winsome doctrines automatically confer teaching rights to the wtbts.

tell me your thoughts and i will tell you mine.!
this is a topic that i am very sensitive about, as i could never see not protecting my family, even if that meant using whatever means at hand to do so!
Wt leadership was never squeamish about having serious weapons ready, ; shotguns at Gilead school/Lansing farm during WW2, Knorr, Henschel caught on camera carrying steel beating rods as body guards. Now beating around the bush.
Great comment: that jws can not defend themselves, but have no compunction to call in the squat team to do the deadly work for them. killing by proxy.

And my life is worth more than any rapists' or meth head.
and you would be doing "God's" job that should be protecting your family, and of course the rapist will be resurrected, then minus his wherewithals to do it with, - his natural parts drive, but,
sadly if you defended your daughter with sufficient force, caliber, you would be in trouble with the police monopoly, even if you botched the job.
so much for thr Moltke doctrine of defence, " [preventative] Attack is the best defence".

it may even require that we give up our inner and outer garments, so to speak.
Yeah, the outer and inner underwear of your daughter, when she is assaulted by a rapist intruder, that could, should have been stopped earlier by a well placed defensive action.
"--remember the rapist is a human,--"
I beg to differ, the rapists are dangerous animals, wearing convincing disguises, to be dealt with accordingly. swiftly.
fantastic graphic produced by the smithsonian institute illustrating human origins.

That beats the "tree of knowledge" in the Garden of Eden story. thank you.
to revolt is a natural tendency of life.
even a worm turns against the foot that crushes it.
the vitality and relative dignity of an animal can be measured by the intensity of its instinct to revolt.
There is also behaviour in nature that requires conformity like schooling of fish, flocking, the V formation of birds , that impinge on "personal" freedom. and individual "revolting" against such arrangements pay dearly. but,
Watch tower embodies the irony, that a watchmen, that spots and sounds the alarm on an issue is silenced. That is how little wt issues come to big disasters, like 1914, 25, 75, 2075.
so this is an honest question that i have been thinking about for some time.. do regular jehovahś witnesses in other countries (other than the usa) take the governing body in new york seriously?.
i mean, i cant help but wonder about the publishers in japan, or south africa, or mexico, or new zealand, or even the uk, or spain, or italy...... or russia?.
not you and i (we know what you think of them), but the regular jwś...... do they take these american buffoons seriously?
They are not all US stock, D. Splane is from Canada, and there is the Austrian, and an Australian. of Royal Commission fame.
what happened after jesus zoomed up into the sky?for a while, he was expected to return rather quickly.in the meantime, there was the “great commission” and evangelism to be tended to.. the jesus believers were meeting in people's homes.
members of that community would take turns using private homes to gather.
thus, they went house to house.. these footstep tracers of jesus (they called themselves akolouthontes "followers" or some called themselves mathetai or "learners.
Why were later departures into space moved to Florida, Russia, China, India?
jehovah's witnesses say that they have the truth and the truth is constant.
they believe that what they teach is the truth that comes directly from jehovah god.
can you think of anything that has changed in the last 20 years to show a jehovah's witness that the truth is not necessarily the truth..
The condemnation of wt lies in the fact that they will disfellowship a JW for disenting from a then current doctrine, but not re-instate that person automatically when his former insight is reflected in the inevitable change aka , "new light". "further consideration".
The most blatant change for me is, that they now, in their final "generation" teaching, flagrantly contradict Math 24: 34: quote:
"--this generation will not, by no means pass away--" - to- " --The anointed generation will pass away, on to their reward, before all these things occur.
Their reward being to participate in the slaughter.
according to these news items the child abuse front is extending to quebec.
a class action would really open some eyes i suspect.
here's hoping!
There is also a different law code in Quebec than the rest of Canada, and what Wood would do in Quebec might not fly in Higgerty's Ontario.
