Is that so...........................................
I have been trying and trying to convince her to realise that the people in the watch tower are either devious or simpletons (or a combination of both).
What she fails to realise is that when the JW organisation is offering a new "understanding" what in fact is happening is the JW organisation is offering "excuses" to the logical argument that they were previously talking out of their arse.
.......................................................or is it just your opinion?

Re: Is that so...........................................
I was referring to your opinion of "devious simpletons talking out their arses"
This is hardly endearing towards your wife now, is it?
I think you might go about changing yourself before trying to change your wife. Good luck, you'll need it.

Re: Is that so...........................................
That's the second miscommunication we have had in two posts. I wasn't talking about my wife, I was talking about the Watch Tower. Let's stop before it gets messy hey?
No sir, you were speaking about those JW's who write the watchtower and referring to the rest of the JW's as followers. If the authors are simpletons and talking out their arses, aren't their followers also simpleton's for believing it and also talking out their arses?
But your wife is the exception because it suits your argument better?
Maybe it is the generalizing I am opposed to in your posts. I am sure there are many JW's who are honest, sincere, mean no harm and actually are law abiding, hard working citizens, including your wife.
