    Yeah I remember when the JW's joined the UN. In their words it was so JW's can show that we pay ceaser his dues and to not be persecuted as much. LOL load of shit.

    No it is not true.

    JWs have never been a member. Nor have they joined the UN. If you read the threads posted you should understand why the words member and joined are misleading.

    XJWs are scrutinized and demonized by JWs as telling lies or inaccuracies. Anything we put out there to combat them should be accurate and truthful.

    To follow up on IP's point.

    The WTBTS became an NGO [Non Government Organization] member of the UN DPI [Department of Public Information] in 1992. They concealed this from the rank and file Jw's until even now. They left under the intense heat that was generated as a result of being 'outed' by the Guardian Newspaper in UK in October 2001.

    They excused it in several ways over time - not the least common of which excuses was the claimed use of the library there. All the excuses can be proven to be absolute lies, and have been.

    Here is the UN press release online that confirms the matter;

    A better word would be 'affiliation' - still if you view her as the consummate 'whore' of the scriptures that is not ideal, is it?
