  YPA change of picture

  by dozy in

  2. bible

  anybody got any idea why the cover picture on the young people ask book was changed?

  they removed the picture of the boy bottom right & superimposed a different head.

  maybe the guy got dfd or maybe it was to change it to an asian guy rather than 2 caucasians?

  "Circumcision is a sign to set you apart from the people of the nations"

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  we know that the hebrew scriptures, or old testament states that the practice of circumcision (of males) was supposed to be yet another sign that set the jews apart from the "people of the nations".

  but apart from so many odd things, how dumb is this?.

  i mean, how did someone know if a male was circumcised or not??

  ...Did people meet each other while walking in the desert , drops their pants, or lift their robes just to show each other their penis? "Now you can see from which nation I have come"
  So stupid....

  Have a close look to Abraham - this was normal at his time

  (Genesis 24:1-3) Now Abraham was old, advanced in years; and Jehovah had blessed Abraham in everything. 2 Hence Abraham said to his servant, the oldest one of his household, who was managing all he had: “Put your hand, please, under my thigh, 3 as I must have you swear by Jehovah, the God of the heavens and the God of the earth, . . .

  (Genesis 24:9) With that the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master and swore to him concerning this matter.

  
  Or Jacob:

  (Genesis 47:29) Gradually the days approached for Israel to die. So he called his son Joseph and said to him: “If, now, I have found favor in your eyes, place your hand, please, under my thigh, and you must exercise loving-kindness and trustworthiness toward me. (Please, do not bury me in Egypt.)

  Maybe they will shift into more social engagement.

  First only with JWs - singing and dancing to "kingdom"-songs, eating and drinking together in the hall.

  Later they will invite also non JWs to such gatherings.

  Prayers will end with a loud "hallelu JAH".

  Just A Thought Regarding The Bunker Video

  by pale.emperor in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as ridiculous as the bunker video was, a few things popped into my consciousness as i was riding the train today.

  firstly, why did they go to all the expense and effort to not only create a bunker, but to furnish it like a living room complete with coffee table, armchair, shelves etc?

  i mean, a bunker should be a bunker... boxes of tinned food, tools, medical supplies, emergency gear etc.

  ...Ya just gotta laugh at them, they are sad. "Best Iife ever?" Standing around at a cart is the best life ever? Maybe if they keep repeating that, they will start believing it.

  Instructions to remove old WT information from kh libraries

  by Half banana in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a pimo friend (physically in mentally out) has just informed me that the cult has decided that they want to suppress all old jw org information by removing bound volumes etc from kh libraries.. in reality, all through their history they have claimed divine "new light" as a means of changing uncomfortable doctrines.

  this however would mean that new jws, or more likely these days young jws, will be prevented from seeing the old light which had been held up as divinely inspired truth in the past.. truth which would get you through big a and which if you didn't agree with would get you disfellowshipped.. anyone else heard of this?

  what might be the reasons (if true) for removing the old wts?.
