  Jehovah's Witnesses & Heart Attacks

  by bj in

  1. social
  2. physical

  as ex jws, we all know that the life of a jw is very stressing which unfortunately lead many to heart attacks.

  among those, are elders, and regular pioneers, etc.

  at the moment two cases come to my memory: a regular pioneer who was also part of the translation staff in malta (helen massa,which is mentioned in the yearbook 2000, p. 125) she is still alive.

  Who's Who in the WBTS

  by bj in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  many are those of us here who often ask who's who in the wbts.

  to simplify things it would be a good idea if a volunteer would create a web site specificaly with this aim.

  it could lead also for a book.. if one needs to consult the biography of don adams, joel adams, karl adams, etc., this site would furnish the answer.

  Archaeology vs WBTS ( who build the pyramids?)

  by bj in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in my book of bible stories (1978), chapter 27, the wbts give the impression to readers, that israelites, participated in building egyptian pyramids.

  also, the watchtower - november 15, 1987, page 30, raises the two following questions: "do the pyramids of giza (near modern cairo) bring to mind abused slaves toiling under hot sun to drag huge stones into place?

  and do you imagine hebrew slaves among them?

  Did the WBTS changed its policy on "eating...

  by bj in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  is it true that the wbts changed its policy concerning eating with disfellowshipped members (now they can)?

  but as i don't receive their literature anymore, i don't know if this is true or just a rumour.

  if so, what is the reference?

  Child Abuse Cases and the WBTS strategy

  by bj in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  in child abuse court cases, i noticed that the wbts try to point out that elders are under confetional secrecy like the catholic church priests, therefore can't reveal things.. but when a jw is appointed as an elder:.

  1) he don't take a vow or oath not to reveal things to the public,.

  2) neighter put this in writing.. so how can the wbts try to compare her elders with the catholic priests?.
