  What Would Bring The Watchtower Down?

  by metatron in

  1. jw

  randy/dogpatch has posted some interesting material about troubles in the organization.

  this info generated a lot of skepticism about the possibility of watchtower fragmentation.

  frankly, it is very easy to be skeptical considering everything that ordinary witnesses are willing to believe or put up with.. i think it would be useful to realistically consider what sort of event(s) would bring the watchtower down or cause its fragmentation?

  How Long Can WT Stonewall The Mounting Evidence For Evolution/Age of Man?

  by Room 215 in

  2. bible

  the evidence for some form of evolution -- and the age of earth and life upon it -- is mounting almost daily.

  how long can the wts insulate its followers from the incontrovertible evidence without lapsing into total irrelevance?

  what do you think?.

  The largest dissident group is in eastern Europe who follow only Rutherford's writings.

  They must really be a progressive and enlightened bunch.

  Why does God need your worship?

  so this is a serious question.

  we are really nothing compared with the whole universe.

  our physical bodies are really just made of simple components that are found everywhere on earth.

  I'm inclined to believe like you, Mad Sweeney, but just who are the brains, the tail, and the dog? What are their names? If the GB aren't personally profitting from the WTS, then someone must be making out like bandits? Who?

  the word delusion in my title has disquieted some psychiatrists who regard it as a technical term, not to be bandied about.

  three of them wrote to me to propose a special technical term for religious delusion: relusion.. .

  designs-

  I remember using the "Evolution/Creation" book as a source in a science report I wrote in the 7th grade. I quoted the Awake! in that same report. Teacher probably thought I was nuts.
