can you find the society's visual ranking of importance?.

I think their use of the watchtower 'symbol' overshadows the bible and it almost implies idol worship.
here are some very interesting comments made to me by an active jw friend in north nj:.
i just went to the website that you sent in your e-mail about the pandelos!
wow!
I can't believe this guy isn't rotting in prison, instead of being allowed to hang out at the Kingdom Hall.
subterfuge is not alway lying as we show yesterday.
sometime subterfuge more like cunnning or adroitness.
the bible give example of subterfuge that not lying.
Hilda,
You are still avoiding the watchtower LIES about the U.N. and their LIES about 1914 which I posted yesterday. I understand you are just like the watchtower, they try to hide from their LIES.
I will continue to post more watchtower LIES if you'd like. One day you may have the courage to face up to their LIES, instead of pushing them deep inside where you don't have to deal with them.
hi guys.. this is a post where it's gonna be like a diary entry for me.
this will help me get out some things.
those who have been in the chat room recently with me know what's going on.. last night was so hard for me.
Katie, all I can tell you is you have to be strong. This is a hard time for you, but it will get better. This storm will pass, but you need to see nothing is worth taking your life over.
Instead of thinking about suicide, think about the positive things your life may bring to others now and in the future. I know how hard it can be, you have to believe in yourself. Your worth and happiness is not dependent on other people but who you are is what is really important. God bless you, for you are in my prayers.
Two blondes ARE better than one!! (At least in bed)
ex-jw also complain about theocratic warfare.
they say jw lie to carry out war against satan and his system.

WATCHTOWER LIES ABOUT IT'S HISTORY!!
Why, then, do the nations not realize and accept the approach of this climax of judgment? It is because they have not heeded the world-wide advertising of Christ's return and his second presence. Since long before World War I Jehovah's witnesses pointed to 1914 as the time for this great event to occur.
--The Watchtower, 15 June 1954, page 370, para.4
How could The Watchtower make such an untrue claim knowing full well that both prior to World War I and for at least 15 years thereafter they preached that "this great event" had occurred in 1874.
Even up unitl 1923 they believed Christ second presence occured in 1874.
The Scriptures show that the second presence [of the Lord] was due in 1874 ...This proof shows that the Lord has been present since 1874.
--The Watch Tower, 1 March 1923, page 67

Our purpose for registering with the Department of Public Information as a nongovernmental organization (NGO) in 1991 was to have access to research material available on health, ecological, and social problems at the United Nations library facilities. We had been using the library for many-years prior to 1991, but in that year it became necessary to register as an NGO to have continued access.
THIS IS A LIE!!
Access to the United Nations Bibliographic Information System (UNBIS) databases is freely available through UNBISnet to any Internet user. For further information contact the Data Base Manager.
One does NOT have to be registered as an NGO to have library access.

Hilda, if they are two different things, then why is my mother being shunned now by the congregation after she told the elders she no longer wanted to be involved in the watchtower?

A BOLD LIE FROM THE WATCHTOWER:
Public Affairs Office Of Jehovah's Witnesses:
Beliefs - Frequently Asked Questions
Do You Shun Former Members?
Answer: Those who simply cease involvemnet in the faith are not shunned.
That is a LIE Hilda, Their own literature says just the opposite.
Watchtower 9/15/1981 pages 23, 24 Disfellowshiping-How to View It
16 Persons who make themselves “not of our sort” by deliberately rejecting the faith and beliefs of Jehovah’s Witnesses should appropriately be viewed and treated as are those who have been DISFELLOWSHIPPED for wrongdoing.
Why did the Watchtower LIE to the public Hilda?
