Bunker Video Sparks Family Drama!

by Wasanelder Once in

i guess you are guaranteed to survive the "great tribulation" if you don't be a "kevin".

my family members are doubling down on their fervor about meeting attendance.

they are having an effect on some of my wishy washy long time inactive family.

I don't get the bunker mentality. Did the dubs in the video really think their secret knock was a protection? As if the knock was wrong that the door wouldn't be kicked in? Did they have supplies down there? Toilets?

Didn't they think the neighbors would find it unusual that they have all these people coming in to visit and they never leave? did they all walk to the bunker house or drive cars and take up all the guest parking spots?

Perhaps the dubs need to start putting together Bunker Bags with food, water, toiletries and an anti kevin t-shirt.

The majority of the comments seem so superficial

well i just got back from 3 days in hell, and geez was this convention strange or what?

im sure someone's probably made a topic about this already but i can't believe that there weren't any new releases besides the movies.

has that ever happened before?

TheListener

My wife's convention is coming up. Should be interesting to see the Armageddon fear kick into high gear. It will probably make my life hell for a while before it all calms down again.

juror email leads to mistrial.

that juror now faces a possible contempt of court charge.the trial of a man involved in a high speed crash that killed a prince george's county police officer last year ended in a mistrial.. one of the jurors told the judge via email thursday morning that judging others was a violation of her religion as a jehovah's witness, news4's prince george's county bureau chief tracee wilkins reported.. kevon darnell neal, 23, was charged with vehicular manslaughter and fleeing and eluding following the death of officer adrian morris, 23.. morris and his partner were pursuing a stolen silver acura when their cruiser ran off interstate 95 near the powder mill road exit in august 2012. morris died after being ejected from the vehicle.

I was always raised that serving on a jury was a conscience matter and perfectly acceptable if you chose to do it. The only exception being a case where the death penalty would be a possibility.

My still a witness wife has done jury duty and enjoyed it.

Is it Time to Declare that The Great Tribulation Has Started ?

by OnTheWayOut in

i don't really engage in doctrinal discussions about jw's anymore.

they seem to say some pretty crazy stuff.

but i have read some threads discussing doctrinal changes and how watchtower is really out of ideas and money at the same time.

TheListener

I don't get why dubs would hide? Didn't we always learn that worldly people would call out for the mountains to cover them up on the day of J? Dubs were supposed to be out and about being strong christians and not having fear of man. The recent bunker videos totally shows fear of man.

Fred Franz as Ghostwriter for Rutherford

by slimboyfat in

it has been claimed that franz was a ghostwriter for rutherford in formulating many on the more obscure allegorical interpretations, and "classes" doctrines of the 1930s and 1940s.

i wonder just how much evidence there is for this.

if there any contemporary testimony that franz did a lot of the writing for rutherford?
