The Two Babylons----PDF!
by Atlantis infor those who were looking for this book in pdf!.
for many years the watchtower society sold and quoted from "the two babylons" as a source to defend their doctrines on the trinity, christmas, the cross, and even baptism!
i don't think any more needs to be said about this book.

Your Word Is a Lamp to My Foot--PDF!
by Atlantis incan you imagine jesus christ teaching that his message was not intended for the general public?
this is exactly what the watchtower society had to say concerning the information contained in the "lamp" book!
while jesus wanted all to hear the "true gospel" the watchtower society saturates its organization in "secret" books and information.

I think the fellow who wrote "Year of Doom, 1975" (later named "The Inside Story of Jehovah's Witnesses") ....W. C. Stevenson was a CO in England.
The titles and the information are from memory so...verify it before using it.

If the "Kool-Aid" came out...
by Justice-One ini was wondering the other day how many would drink if the kool-aid came out at a future meeting?
you know, they made an announcement that the faithfull and discreet slave had been told that we should all kill ourselves because jehovah did not see the need for us to endure through armageden.
i wonder....30 percent?

The new biography is not listed yet but you can order it through PayPal as RR said. It worked for me last night.
I ordered via e-mail ( [email protected] ) and paid via PayPal. They were responsive.

They shouldnt have histoical buildings that need excessive amounts of authentic remodelling. For an organisation always begging for money why then deliberately buy listed buildings you know are going to cost a fortune to look after?
Its wicked and immoral to take poor peoples hard earned money and then spend it on chandaliers. How is that any different from any con man spending donated money on feathering their own nests?
Yeah well…I’m not real into the “shoulds” and “morality” of others’ behavior but…. Let’s say a building is donated in the area where the headquarters are… a walk for the Bethelites (like the Bossert and the Standish).
The JWs, however, must renovate it to historical standards and spend a bunch of money doing so. They still may end up with a beautiful building for less than they could have built a modest building from scratch.
My comment was only to inject the reality of having to meet certain externally enforced standards on their remodeling efforts to allow others to understand that perhaps the level of “opulence” was not necessarily the JWs’ idea. For example, look at 107 Columbia Heights which the JWs did build….looks nothing like the Bossert Hotel.

That restored 'palace' that has won awards is excessive for a religion that supposedly follows Jesus the carpenter.
Sometimes designated "historic" buildings must be restored to a certain standard. So, if the JWs are remodeling a building, they may have to meet externally imposed standards.
We called the Brooklyn Historical Society the Brooklyn Hysterical Society as they were very aware of any "non-authentic" remodeling.
