Oh, I don't know, some cultures are more demonstrative than others that's for sure but that doesn't make all white people cold nor is it a true gauge of true character I am sure the mafia can throw a spririted party. It's like the old cliche of rich people are dishonest poor people are noble sort of thing. It's more to do with culture than skin colour I think.

Watchtower Internet Presence Spells Doom For the Cult With Every Passing Year.
by Brokeback Watchtower inthink of it : the internet as a source of information and exposing to human kind many alternative interpretations of literature content spells doom for watchtower bull shit as all countries raise their intelligence to what is right and wrong and what is self serving and biased by religious indoctrination, such consciousness will become so common place that religious bull shit will not be very tolerated by the masses as we proceed forward.
it is just a matter of excellorateded of information available to the mean average users.

Yes chook, one of the ironies WT created for themselves and will have to live with. All the best domain names were taken by the time Jah turned his attention the internet.

My jaw dropping OMG moment at the end of the convention
by UnshackleTheChains inyes folks.
over the past few days i can honestly say the convention was relatively quite good.
most of the talks, videos, symposiums were in line with scripture if you have faith in the bible.

I see what you mean, I do have a slightly different take on it though, if I may. Yes the internet means information is freely available to those who want to research and people will wake up and leave or not get baptised etc because of doing so.
But, I also think that the dotborg website will be the mothership that will take WT into the future (at least they probably intend it to be). There are internet religions that do very very nicely for themselves. WT's business advisors would be stupid not to have figured this out. Either way sheer speculation and time will tell.

Anyone interested in their ashes on the moon?
by James Mixon infor only $12,500.00 your ashes can be put on the moon or $5,000 for a burial in low-earth orbit, where a travel-shampoo-size urn can spin for years at 17,000 mph until it gradually descends into the white-hot re-entry atmosphere.they hope to have a cemetery on the moon complete with plots and ceremonial adornments..just think every time it's a full moon you look up in the sky and you will always see you love one.
a thought, you are resurrected on the moon.....

That's exactly right rebel8 a perfect business for scammers, maybe WT could offer a similar service or partner up with NASA or Elon Musk and the GB members could drop off peoples remains of on their way up to heaven.

by UnshackleTheChains inwell i have to give credit where credit is due.

Thanks John Davis for posting that.
What struck me about that letter is the language. WT's creative preface language designed to make sure it never happens "in some cases" do I need to say more.
Sneaky weasely bastards can never just give unqualified instructions re child abuse you gotta ask yourself: why the hell not? Sorry no medals for most improved religion awarded based on that letter.
