  The Polarizing of America: Rep. Michele Bachmann wins Iowa Straw Poll

  by darthfader in

  http://news.yahoo.com/bachmann-wins-gop-2012-test-vote-224544660.html.

  minnesota rep. michele bachmann won a test vote of iowans on saturday, a show of strength five months before the state's caucuses kick off the gop presidential nominating season.. the result is the first indication of what iowans think of the field of republicans competing for the chance to challenge president barack obama next fall.

  but it's hardly predictive of who will win the winter iowa contest, much less the party nod or the white house.. well... there goes the neighborhood....

  How the Watchtower corporation really works (beginning to end)

  by Terry in

  in 1925, judge rutherford penned an article of extreme controversy titled the birth of the nation.. the editorial committee (russell had created) would not approve it.. .

  ruthford moved swiftly to remove them!

  he then hid his massacre cleverly:.

  first contradiction in the bible?

  by cptkirk in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  contradiction without the use of an outside medium (such as archaeology, fossil study).

  i just stumbled on this after reading the thread about adam and the sexual subliminal message.

  i was thinking about adam and eve and chronology, and a contradiction popped up in my head...so i picked up the bible and there it is.. gen 1:27 - god creates adam and eve, tells them to be fruitful.. gen 2:18 - now adam is alone?

  Epic Bible Character Endings

  by sabastious in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i loved the depiction of the exodus in dreamworks' the prince of egypt with val kilmer as a seriously badass moses and patrick stewart as the egyptian emperor that orders the death of the hewbrew babies.

  it's an epic story no doubt.. how do these character story's end in the bible?

  i remember as a kid being crushed that moses didn't get to enter the promise land.

  The Problem with the problem

  by Terry in

  2. beliefs

  jehovah's witnesses have an invisible problem which is as unseen as jesus.

  the problem with their problem is that it is unseen.. what do i mean by this?.

  no future.. the future jehovah's witnesses prepare for is not their future at all.. the jw future is armageddon (very soon!

  What benefit is all the power of people's lives to the Governing Body?

  by TimothyT in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if the 7 million jw's mindlessly follow the governing body (which the majority do), of what benefit is it to the governing body?

  that power over people's lives is nothing to boast about in my books.

  i conclude that the only reason they so desire this power is because it brings money, authority and security to them.

  Already happened. Back in the 90's there was a shake up in how the society operates as a business. It used to be that at least one of the GB sat on the commitee's of the main corporate boards (I believe there are 4 corporations that the WT$ use.) This was changed in the late 90's early oughts to distance the GB from these legal corps (and IMO distance them from lawsuits.) Now the corporations are free of GB guidance and the system can just keep running.

  Since freddy died and we are now deep in the 2000's I dont think they even care about WT dogma or any true guidance of the organization. Its just a matter of keeping the bethel/watchtower machine moving and everyone thats put in there time (bethel heavies) getting their little piece.

  Another thing that keep the machine moving is all the people at Bethel who are waiting their turn. You see bethel is a place where you serve to rule eventually. When I was there I saw all these 15-20+ year cats who were just waiting till they could weild some form of 'power' and ironically lord it over other bethelites or those in the congo.

  There is no way these dudes are going to let the machine stop with out them have their day.

  This is my opinion based on what Ive seen and come to know. Its all about the system or machine at this point!

  Knor perfected a machine that rutherford created (I believe that russel started an Idea that rutherford turned into a movement.) Knorr fashioned a system that could carry on in perpetuity (sp and trying to use big words) Even with franz crackpot ideas knor made sure that the system itself would continue. Look at his moves to reduce the power of president after he died and the creation of the governing body to share power and decisions.

  Now I feel the system is firmly in the hands (and guidance) of the law department. Thus we see the changes to get the GB off the rulling boards and isolated from the corporation.

  i hope that if any witness sees this thread, they understand that being a witness = being a time waster.. please understand this.

  if you don't believe me, i'm sure others here will agree.. if you can salvage any of your time that is left, do it!

  get out of this false religion.
