Bland you seemed to have missed my point, JWs like to bring up nazi germany as evidence that they are specially prosecuted-that is sickening
I even had a JW boast about it telling me that JWs shared their food with each other in the concentration camps and the jews didn't.
The JWs weren't asked to give up their god completely they were asked to to salute hitler and were sent to concentration camps for their political neutrality, because they didn't take sides and of course you were either with hitler or against hitler, kind of like how JWs view themselves. We are...
I'm not even going to bother reading all of the this, do you seriously think the JWs were the only Christians to resist the nazi's and get sent to a concentration camp? Yes "fake Christian, sitting at the table of demons" priests also refused to comply with the nazis and were sent to...
I still read it as a warning to those who think they can get away with taking advantage of the servants because they think Christ won't come in their life time.
I read it as a warning, that if the head servant disobeys the master and neglects the rest of the servants the master is going to come down on him and kick his butt :D
I really don't understand this mentality that women are worse at leading then men, I've only had a father for 6 years, my mum has lead the house hold by herself for many years, even when he had a breakdown she still handled business!
And yes she would throw you down if you messed with her kids...
Then they need evidence outside the bible that it went down that way, but I have a different interpretation for that as well. Gender roles where not given by god until after the fall of man, if anything it's a punishment.
