Hello everyone,
What on earth has happened to this board. It seems it's more of a "Moderator Show"......
I know the board is for JWs and "interested ones" - which can included just about everyone because it doesn't state what a person has to be interested in?
It would appear that the board's moderators ARE JWS and that they are removing ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING that speaks against the org. This cencorship is rather a dictatorship. Now, we can either take it or leave it, in which case the WBTS/jws have won.... isn't that what it's all about. Remember a while back, we were warned that the WBTS would do a blitz - I guess they've started!
You know there are many Jws here - and we know who they are, could they be the new moderators???? I don't know, all I know is, this place is no longer a place where one can come and feel free to speak one's mind and heart - especially after being so damaged by the very religion one trusted and respected.
Where is this board going?
I know many are for the WBTS Reform - however, I have to ask:
1. If we believe the WBTS is ruled by God - and permitting the org. to do these things, and in His own time rectify matters, why is it necessary to reform. Even the Isrealites went through many punishing times.
2. If it isn't ruled by God - why bother - it will be destroyed anyway - sometime in the future according to scripture.
Isn't reform a man-made longing to have one's own way on a matter. Just a thought.
I do not personally agree with WBTS's many teachings; but like all religions, there's a little truth in everything!!
If this board is being dominated by just one group - then it is doomed to fail like all the others before it. IMHO.
