It has been awhile since I've posted anything, but I got this e-mail from someone who is on the edge of falling out of the Borg due to mental stress. I've attempted to verify the information, even called the United Nations, but haven't gotten to a person who can say if this meeting happened. Need help!!!! My gut says this is a contrived experience with many details just not adding up...but you never know. If it is a falsehood, I think it needs to be rebuffed. I quote from the email that was sent to me on Monday, October 20, 2008 From a Circuit Overseer in Georgia...Brother Steve Kormendi We had an interesting experience at our recent assembly. Though he has never been to college, this brother who grew up in the truth is so talented that he was able to obtain a high paying job. A while ago, his company assigned him to give a talk to the United Nations. He worried over what to speak about. After much deliberation, he finally managed to prepare his speech and showed it to his sister for her to read. His sister is also in the truth. As she read the proposed speech she couldn't believe her brother would deliver it, so she asked him if he was going to give that talk to the United Nations to which he replied yes. Well, he talked about the fighting and total disunity of the world and citied the major cause of it all -- religion. After stating a series of facts and statistics, he explained that there is one group that will never be found in that category - Jehovah's Witnesses - and then went on to show why that was the case. He spoke at length of the sovereignty of God's kingdom and how that kingdom will unite the plant. The talk wasn't given to the whole UN, but rather to a division of it having to do with economics. When he finished, he nervously wondered how his speech had been received. Eventually the chairman, who like the rest of the committee held a variety of university degrees said that the last thing he expected to hear about at that time was religion. He went on to say that there was certainly no doubt that religion was the cause of so many problems. You can imagine our brother's relief? Later, as the meeting was breaking up, he approached the three members of the committee with a question: So, when are you going after religion? They were stunned. They asked him: How do you know that is what we have planned? Our brother quickly replied: The bible foretold it in much detail. After consulting together for a few moments they declared that it would be happening soon because everything was already in place. As they left the room, one turned to our brother and quietly said -- Whatever your mission, get it done quickly, for it won't be long now! Wow! Talk about excited. This surely shows Jehovah our God has entrusted the truth of his word to the right organization!

If this weren't an old story, the statement above would have been a tip-off. If you were "going after religion," would you really admit it and say "How did you know?" All of these committee members with their many university degrees certainly are stupid. Foiled by an uneducated Dub, wow!

ahh I cant even read this, you cannot be serious.

FYI, that is actually given that person on such a high position would at least have his/her bachelor and one master's degree at least. But this just show how far behind witnesses really are, and their sick fascination "proving" something to "educated" people. It is not so much university education you dumbasses but your inherent inability to use your brain due to intellectual narcosis induced by constant brain washing.
