You snuff it and it's bye bye to your children's inheritance. Christmas, birthdays, Easter, etc - loads of dosh wasted there that could otherwise go to the cult. And of course all the work (pioneering, KH building, etc) is voluntary and free of charge!

  After all these years, it has only really hit me that Watchtower is nothing more than a money-making scam! I think I need a brain transplant!

  Could This Be the Most Repellent Watchtower ....Ever?

  you'll be getting the aug. 1 watchtower soon.

  on it's rear cover, it has the following article:.

  "the branch office of jehovah's witnesses in nigeria recently received a letter that, in part.

  On the positive side, this could be the final straw for some of those JWs who are doubting that Watchtower is God's sole organisation for distributing spiritual food ().

  It is an utterly revolting display of mercenary abhorrence by this religious cult.

  City Fan, thanks for posting those pics, I haven't had such a good laugh in ages!

  I also like Logical's conspiracy theory about Beckham missing the penalty on purpose. Er...that is what you meant, isn't it, Logical?

  I hope that answers your question, Theocrat. However, should you wish to dispute that the above definitions do not apply to Watchtower, then please elaborate.

  do you ever write posts but not post them?

  by dh in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i find that i do it a lot, often to do with politcal threads, i read some of the stuff people write and i want to rip into it so badly, of course because i know i am right all of the time and everyone else just thinks they are, so i write a post, then i read it and don't bother to post it... i figure, why destroy everyone elses illusions that they are right?

  that just wouldn't be nice.. sometimes i spend a while writing a long post, then i just hit ctrl+a followed by space bar, and back in my browser... does anyone else do this or is it just me?

  i am particularly interested to hear from other people who like myself are right all of the time but would feel guilty about shattering everyone else's illusions.
