The WT is full of misogynists. So were the Israelites. So has been for a lot of mankind. All about who you can have power over and how many you can get on your side to keep it.

If Job didn't utter a sinful word, then obliviously God gives out evil as well as good.
“I say to you that everyone who continues wrathful with his brother will be accountable to the court of justice; but whoever addresses his brother with an unspeakable word of contempt will be accountable to the Supreme Court; whereas whoever says, ‘You despicable fool!’ will be liable to the fiery Gehenna.”—Matthew 5:22.
Guess Job only said Wicked fool. And his wife had to have 10 more children with him.

Yes the Catholic church painted the bill in a very unfavorable light and got their followers to write and email a protest. It worked pretty good and I'm sure the WT is happy.

Disfellowshipped
by lriddle80 inmy judicial committee was set for monday.
the message says to call back asap and that he loves me, but he said it like "i love ya, girl" he never has said that to me like that.
so, i call back and he says i have been a hard person to get a hold of and that confused me because i had not received any calls from him.

So your dad was contacted by the elders when they couldn't get you to pick up the phone. And he pitched in and helped. Sad and somewhat predictable. Probably made him feel a little more righteous.
Even if you expect it, it still can sting. Hope your life goes better from now on.

Angels are Neuter Gender According to JW`s
by smiddy3 inwhat about the bible ,does that agree with the jw theology ?.
therefore angels are sexless ,yet we find in the bible on a few occasions where they have lusted after women ,taken a mans form and had sex with women.. .on one occasion producing hybrids half human half angel.. on other occasions they just wanted to satisfy their sexual desires.?
their sexless aren`t they ?

There's been quite a few barrel chested muscle sprouting angels that are decidedly male in the pages of the WT. If I remember right, the WT of course has explained it, as simply the bible using the male gender to represent authority. Because God is male right? He's the big authority figure. For that matter, why did Jesus have to be born a male?

The problem with movies this last decade or so
by LoveUniHateExams inactually, i think i've discovered two issues.. the first is that there are too many soft reboots, remakes and re-imaginings.
don't get me wrong, hollywood has always done remakes and some remakes work very well.
the fly (1986) and the thing (1982) are actually remakes/re-imaginings of the original 50s films.

I gave up on the Star Wars saga on the third movie (don't ask me what "episode" it is) because of Lucas dissing his own movie with Tarzan yells by Chewbacca, ewoks and storm troopers that couldn't hit the ground if they aimed for it.
I did like the remake of "The Thing" - totally twisted my brain with the effects but I also like the cast. I hate remakes that rely on effects, gore, sex and empty talk. That being said, I used to watch a lot of movies but for the most part, I like watching mindless monsters and big illogical peopleusingrobots movies now that I don't expect much out of, but I love the visuals and hopefully some funny lines.

1914 Prophecy
by Acer21 ini am having trouble locating what is the 1914 prophecy?
jw.org states that the jw's accurately predicted the events of 1914, but do not indicate what the predictions were, or the specific fulfillments.
what do jw's think they are (predictions/fulfillments)?

There is an online archive of the early watchtowers/golden age/awakes. In 1916 there was a Questions from the Readers entry regarding the baptizing of people after 1914. Since the followers were told that the "rapture" was going to occur in 1914, that was the cut off date to get baptized. 1914 having come and gone without anyone going to heaven, the query was what to do about people wanting to get baptized now?
So it was a definite date promoted by the WT. It's plain from the after effects.

New Proof for 1914 - Oct. 2019 WT
by neat blue dog inthe latest study edition offers a new proof for 1914, get this:.
were you born after the year 1914?
if so, you have lived your entire life during “the last days” of the present system of things.. because so much time has passed since 1914, we must now be living in the last of “the last days.”.

That would be amazing if you were born anywhere near 1914 cause you'd be over a hundred. 1929 would give you a ninety year old. Might as well say - if you have been born after the year 607 bce, you will have noticed that the world is getting worse. Because things are so bad, we must now be living in the time of the end.
