The July 15 Watchtower and all its new light is only...
by sosoconfused inmaking people cling to the organization more.
when i found out it was up i told so many people frantically that there is a new study article up and that it had so many changes.
my mother started crying saying how happy she is to be a part of an organization that is truly directed by jehovah... only the true faithful and discreeet slave could have such insight.... another person began to say how great it is to see the celestial chariot on the move.. .

You CAN continue associating with wordly/disfellowshipped family members AND get a higher education
by Anony Mous inquotes:.
-- therefore, explain that a parent's decision an a child's associates would not be based on religion, but on the young one's conduct ... it will probably help if you acknowledge that this does not mean that all other youths whom your children are around in the neighborhood or at school are no good.
some of them may be pleasant and decent, as some of your neighbors, relatives, and workmates are.

Quick Question regarding faithful slave and apostle
by sosoconfused insince we have a new understanding of the faithful and discreet slave not appearing until 1919, and in turn no one giving the proper food at the proper time... does this wipe out the validity of the gospel accounts and all the rest of the greek scriptures?.
.
i know i am missing out on something here, but is this the line of reasoning that one can gather from this latest announcement?.

Questions by JWs in 1976
by Doug Mason inin 1976, my friend bruce price was in contact with jehovahs witnesses who had become disillusioned through the debacle with 1975. bruce was the leading voice among the sda ministry in working for jws.
at the time, i was a member of the sda church.
although i left them about 25 years ago, to this day bruce and i enjoy a strong and genuinely warm friendship.. so, in 1976 bruce invited me to a meeting with one of the jws who was leading the disquiet in his congregation in dandenong (victoria, australia).

Just wanted to share a music addition
by sosoconfused innot sure if anyone feels like me but one thing that was always lacking to me in the jw's was that the music did not move me in anyway accept maybe one or two songs.
however it was funny that solomon danced out of his clothes so he must have been jammin to something on his ipod.
but the other day i met a guy who is a rastafarian and we were talking about somethings and he told me our discussion reminded him of this song that he loved.

The Watchtower Study At A Glance. What's "Christian Activity"?
by ÁrbolesdeArabia injanuary 13, 213 magazine focus is avoding anything that could lessen your "christian activity".
what is christian activity used in every other paragraph?
witnesses are told in a subtle way, if their jobs are high paying they probably are not doing things jehovah's ways.
