  by email in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i don't know if this has been posted recently but... .

  i was just talking to a friend (a ms jw) that told me that he was told by the elders on a talk he was about to give that according to their last elders school there are instructions not to use the terms "the watchtower society" or "the society" or "the organization" anymore... but rather to now always use "the faithful and discreet slave" or "the slave"... .

  2. friends

  after coming home to read what has happened today on this board, i would just like to say that no matter what differences anyone has ever had with ray franz, i, for one appreciate what he has done for me.

  ray has helped more people to look at their spirituality over the last 2 decades.

  he is not perfect, but he has been a voice of reason and a man of integrity.

  Mexico/Malawi $$$$$?

  by OUTLAW in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  anyone who was a dub many years ago remembers people dying in malawi for the wbts.in malawi,dubs were encouraged not to have anything to do with the government and many were murdered..in mexico,it was profitable for wbts to encourage the people to do what the people in malawi were not allowed to.

  i have 2 questions: was there a monatary or political gain in it for wbts?.if those people didn`t die for profit of some sort for wbts,what did they die for?.for one,i know dead dubs sell magazines,the profits from that probably helped wbts acquire property in mexico...outlaw

  Jehovah is sifting the organization

  by YoYoMama in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  jehovah keeps sifting and cleanning out the organization.

  this board is proof of that sifting work.

  congratulations on being cleansed out of jehovah's organization because of your inmoral and prideful lives.

  WTS and Holocaust $$$ Reparations $$$

  by MadApostate in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is also posted in hawkaw's un thread, which is currently down.

  i posted it there since i see the wts's invitation and participation in this international conference as evidencing how successful the wts has manipulated the holocaust tragedies to further its secret agenda to weave itself into the international community, despite its expressed position that it is "no part of the world".

  its interesting that as time progresses, and the wts teaches its followers that every day brings closer the destruction of this world, yet the wts continues to make every effort to move closer to the world and gain its favor.. here is a high-ranking representative of "god's earthly organization" addressing a meeting of high-ranking "worldly" vips, and where in this message is the promotion of "god's kingdom"?

  THE GOVERNING BODY EXPOSED

  by bj in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  "through the ages the lavish wealth of religion that profess christianity has disturbed many people.

  popes, bishops, and other religious dignitaries have lived in splendor supported by their flocks, many of whom have existed in poverty.

  the situation has not changed in modern times.

  Writing private letters to the Society.

  by spectromize in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  for anyone who's ever written something of a private nature or asked clarification on certain beliefs have you ever had the unfortunate experience of the elders calling you in the back room or a sheperding call ?.

  the reason i bring this out is that newer brothers or sisters don't know that everytime you write the society the society sends a copy of your letter to your local cong.

  elders.
