Nigeria needs funds? Well, It's in the wrong 'charity' then. If the WTBTS made millions of pounds/dollars - do you really think It would spend it making their 'brothers' ' lives comfortable during these Last Days? I've never heard of the WT helping even Its own. Yet I have heard stories of 'brothers' in poor countries trekking 5 miles across crocodile infested waters to listen to WT propoganda....sadly.

Will the Real Estate Crash Affect the Watchtower?
by WTWizard ini have heard about all the money that the watchtower society stands to make on all its real estate holdings.
and that's bad news.
with donations going down and lawsuits going up, and the need in nigeria, they are going to need all the money from the real estate that they can get.. there is good news to this, though it may come with a price if you are selling a house.

Oh - and hello WTWizard - I see where you're coming from on the property thing. Wishful thinking. Hopefully their greed will expose them.

Reading of the Watchtower's 'storing up treasures on Earth' makes me angry. I always believed, as a youngster, that the Watchtower had no interest in temporary Earthly treasures - unlike the Conventional Churches, which the WTBTS contantly criticised for their wealth.
I now believe that the WTBTS is nothing more than a corrupt business, conning not only Society (into thinking It'sa Religion), but It's own members.
What's that Scripture?..the one about LOVE of money being the root of all evil?

"In the passages of the great pyramid of Gizeh the agreement of one or two measurements with present truth chronology might be accidental, but the correspondency of dozens of measurements proves the same God designed both pyramid and plan…" (WatchTower 6/15/1922 p.187)
....no, WAIT....
"It is more reasonable to conclude that the great pyramid of gizeh, as well as the other pyramids…were built…under the direction of Satan the devil." (WT, 11/15/1928 p.344).
Tee hee - I asked my last Dub-visitor how 1914 is calculated...they're getting back to, lol.

Can God see the future?
by Adolfius ini've been out a while, but i remember thinking about this as a teenager and being confused, (my mother told me i must be posessed by demons to think such things and so never offered me an explanation).
what do the jws say about it.
if jehovah can see into the future, he would've known what a mess he was going to make of creation so he would've decided against it before he even thought of it.. based on the theory that he went ahead and created everything anyway, that must mean he can't see into the future.. i also seem to remember that god doesn't interfere with man, because we have free will, so all our actions are down to us and in no way "steered" or "influenced" by god.. so how can he make predictions about the future, i.e.

I'm not aware of anything in British newspapers, so I imagine Dubs here will not get to hear of it - which is a pity really, so I emailed Stephen Bates earlier
