Are there any mistkaes in the Awake publication?
And did not Robbie accept this was the case to me on page 5? And galveston75 appeared to concur by accepting that no man or organisation was infallible.
Given this, I am not sure what the point of your question is? Have I misunderstood?
Originally posted by Rank outsiderI have not seen robbie carrobie or galveston state that "there are (or have been) mistakes in the Awake publication".

What they have said is that "Awake is not inspired by God" (although I think galveston75 contradicts himself here), and that "JWs are not infallible".
Awake is publshed by the JW Governing Body which is the authorititve head of what they claim is god's chosen church and voice of truth on earth. The point of my question is therefore specifically aimed at that claim.
Hope this helps.

galveston75 recently claimed that the JW organisation's writers are inspired in the same way as the bible's writers were inspired.

edit: on the other thread you've said that he will retract the claim if he made it, so I suppose it's moot, although it seems a rather strangely fundamental "mistake" to make about the status of JW printed materials.

something, let us know. Indeed what does it prove other than the Gman is human as

Originally posted by robbie carrobieQuestioning galveston75's view that the writers The Watchtower and Awake! are divinely inspired in the same way he believes the bible's writers were [especially when you have contradicted galveston75's viewpoint point blank] cannot be described as "squabbling". It is in fact a completely fundamental issue.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieAs I said, robbie, it is already being discussed here on the overlapping Thread 146778. Neither I nor galveston75 [or anyone else who has posted there] should be expected to have to retype our discussion here on this thread simply because you are, rather oddly, pretending that that discussion isn't taking place and that galveston75 hasn't already responded.
