Why is there nothing known about the Jehovah’s Witness brother WOLFGANG OTT which raped 6 women in Austria and killed 4 of them?
by Sektenkult inthe wikipedia has not even his date of birth, photos unavailable.
only the places where he rapped and murdert are known nothing else.
normally when somebody like him kills and murders everything gets public, which school was he, what was kn his mind and so on and so on.

There are many Wolfgang Otts in Google. WIKI does not identify the rapist as a JW. So where do you get your information?

I feel that this publisher charge is because not enough individual donations in congregations, so congregation is assessed to give out of general donations in congregation. Can't tithe individual jws, so tithe congregations.

Did Watchtower Really Teach That Armageddon Was Coming in 1954?
by Jerome56 inin the march 2025 jw broadcast david splane in his morning worship talk mentioned that "some thought" that armageddon would come 40 years after 1914. such statements are usually meant to shift the blame of their own false predictions on to their members for speculating.
however, i was unable to find anything in print showing that such a thing was indeed taught by the society.
was this really a thing?.

https://www.jwfacts.com/pdf/the-kingdom-that-never-came-joseph-wilting.pdf A document that talks about 1954.
Or check this quote: This time can be called “Jehovah‟s day” because it is the day when he fights for his name. Already forty years of this generation that is doomed to feel the wrath of Jehovah‟s day have passed. Only a few years remain. In the most urgent sense, then, “the day of Jehovah is near upon all the nations.” (The Watchtower October 15, 1954, p. 615).

New GB member Judy Jedele critizing Job's "humility" while wearing $20,000 Rolex, gold cuff links, coloured suit. Incredible!
by WingCommander ini swear, you can't make this shit up!
for years and years growing up in this cult, i had to constantly hear from my parents, from the stage, in the literature, about "keeping your eye simple", not being "materialistic", not "having a showy display of one's wealth.
" of course, this never seemed to apply to the wealthy business owning elduhzzzz who ran and lorded it out over the congregations, but i digress.

The Bible does not provide details as to what sexual practices between a husband and a wife should be considered clean or unclean. A Christian couple must make decisions that reflect their resolve to honor Jehovah, to please each other, and to maintain a clean conscience. Generally speaking, a couple would not discuss with others this intimate aspect of their marriage. (WT January 2025, p. 13) (Available in a public WT source)
