Man, my head hurts...
by siegswife indiscussing the wachtower with an active drone is worse than the morning after drinking a bottle of tequilla.
it's worse than banging your head against a steel wall.
it's a freaking effort in futility.

Is The Governing Body EVIL?
by jst2laws ini am going to stick my neck out and postulate that the gb is not evil .
nor is the watchtower society as a whole.
i'm sorry this got a little long but please accept the challenge and show me wrong.

Hi Just2laws! I think the answer to your question depends on whether or not you think they fit the following description given by Jesus:
Matthew 24:48,49 But if ever that evil slave should say in his heart, 'My master is delaying,' and should start to beat his fellow slaves and should eat and drink with confirmed drunkards, the master of that slave will come on a day that he does not expect and an hour that he does not know, and will punish him with the greatest severity and will assign him his part with the hypocrites. There is where his weeping and gnashing of teeth will be.
Personally, I think they fit the MO of an 'evil slave' to a tee.

Does Knowledge of Evil Condemn Us?
by JosephAlward inordinarily i would post this topic in the "bible research" forum, but i found the following on the "friends" forum, in the "tree of what" thread, so i will leave it here.. achristian explains,.
[when] free people have a knowledge of evil they always, at least briefly, consider doing evil.
and, even having evil thoughts for a brief fleeting moment makes people less righteous than god.

What is evil really except something that isn't true? Whether it's something like Cain, believing that he would be happier if his brother was dead and that he could kill him without repercussion; or a person believing that a manmade 'organization' is God's channel of communication?
Evil is based in falsehood. It is darkness, without enlightenment, without truth.
Wherever the Light of God shines on something, it isn't dark anymore. It is exposed for what it is. If the Light shines in darkness, it's not darkness anymore. When the truth is revealed, the lie has no place. It can't exist anymore.
I agree with aChristian that the 'knowledge' denoted in Genesis refers to an 'intimate' relationship with evil...with lies. When you believe or tell a lie, you are promoting evil and what results.
If you know something is a lie and expose it for what it is, evil no longer has a place. In God's Light, there is no darkness, thus no 'evil'.
In answer to your question then, no, knowledge of evil doesn't condemn us. Perpetrating lies and allowing a place for evil is what condemns us.

((((Sharon)))) I'm so very sorry for what has happened to your sister and her family.
Although I've been out for years, it's only been in the past half year or so that I've come to realize just how destructive the WTS is. It's hard for people who are isolated in their own destruction, as your brother in law was. He was probably afraid to investigate and find out if his doubts were well founded. If he had, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out so tragically.I'm not very good at this...I pray you have peace.
Lea
