  Who Pays The Ferryman....?

  by hillary_step in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  french philosopher blaise pascal once noted, "men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction.

  " a case study for this statement can clearly be evidenced by the governing body of jehovahs witnesses.. the gb present themselves as lovers of truth and righteousness who are the only persons on this planet who speak for god.

  this doctrine is at the very core of the beliefs of jehovahs witnesses and is one of the few that cannot be rationalized away by wts apologists.

  dear brothers and sisters in the worldwide brotherhood of jehovahs witnessestm,.

  there has been much public interest in our beliefs lately, so we have prepared a very brief summary of our core beliefs in a new pamphlet which you may offer to interested persons.

  hopefully, this pamphlet will generate enough interest with honest-hearted people and enable you to start many new bible studies.

  i have not followed very many threads of late, so if someone has already made the same observations i'm about to make, i apologize for my redundancy.. .

  i admit it: i'm part of a highly secretive, highly elite group.

  (we have to drink two quarts of fresh yak blood and get a tattoo of a pentagram on our butts as part of of the initiation.

  Brother Salda

  by teejay in

  2. friends

  the last memorial service/funeral i went to at a kingdom hall was for brother salda (his real name).

  funny, but i can't think of his first name (his wife's name is eileen); as for him, i only remember "brother salda.".

  brother salda was a very intelligent man, but not a very good dub.

  Restrictions

  by ozziepost in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there is a practice among jws of applying restrictions to individual members.

  it forms part of the judicial process and, although having no scriptural basis, is applied automatically to erring ones who are judged to be repentant.. so, for a period of time, usually up to 12 months, the individual is not allowed to share in commenting at meetings, offering public prayer, appearing on the platform in congregation meetings, or in serving as an auxiliary pioneer.. as with any man-made law, difficulties arise from this practice.

  although no announcement has been made to the congregation, individual congregation members can have their curiosity aroused.. for example, take the real-life situation where a sole parent has been placed on restrictions by a judicial committee.
