How does the WTS explain how the battle of Armageddon will be fought?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inarmageddon is a battle in which satan unites the kings of the earth against god's appointed king, christ.. the witnesses teach that the bible uses megiddo as the "symbolic" place of gathering of all the kings of the earth, where they will try to do battle against god and his forces.. it sounds so silly to me now that god and his forces would battle satan?
if god is so powerful,wouldn't he make satan and his demons just disappear?
does god need a sword,rocket,fist,or army tanks to destroy satan?.

I don't remember how the WTS explain how this battle would be fought. Is there any information on this silly war?

The Erosion Of Governing Body Faith
by metatron inlet's think about the subtle effects of the watchtower's newfound appeals for money.
traditionally, the society avoids doing anything that might expose the reality of how much of a facade the whole thing is.
they fear incidents that undermine their carefully crafted image of invunerability - and, indeed, the reality is much different.. beyond deceiving the witlesses in general, there is another reason for care because they must deceive themselves.

Beyond deceiving the Witlesses in general, there is another reason for care because they must deceive themselves.
The great ''WitnissOni'' knows all of his tricks are to deceive everyone with a slight of hand,smoke and mirrors,distractions,and trickery. The WTS know that after 130 years they still need these methods to deceive their members. They use every method they can find to trick all their members. Some people aren't fooled and leave. Most never see that they are being deceived and stay. The WTS will be here for a long time. There might be small decreases of members,less contributions,less printing of books,but they will never ''disappear''.

1975 For Deniers
by Farkel in1975 for deniers.
most of today's jws were not members in 1975 or in the 9 years prior to 1975, so they were not eyewitnesses to what really went on during that period.
i was a pioneer in that period, and i was an eyewitness to what went on.. those jws who are still active today and who were around in that period will typically say it was the "brothers" who "ran ahead of jehovah" and "read more into" the 1975 prediction than what was actually stated.

Blondie's Comments You Will Not Hear at the 12-27-09 WT Study (LOVELESS WORLD)
by blondie in--read 1 john 3:16.. comments.
q 18, 19. how should we view any counsel that we receive from a christian friend, and what example did the ephesus.
why not the david example here...david's servants and family had to know.. q 21. what will all of us do at times, but why is it vital that we maintain strong friendships in the congregation?.

2. Today, what a pleasure it is to be associated with a worldwide organization whose members follow the pattern set by
those first-century Christians!We are determined to obey Jesus' command to display genuine love for one another.
However, during these last days, people in general are disloyal and fail to show natural affection. (2 Tim. 3:1-3)
Leave it to the 5th grade writing department to write this garbage. (Are the attending any Kingdom Halls to see what's really going on?)
How many times have you seen fueds between Elders where some don't even talk to each other?
How many members leave the congregation and join another congregation because of genuine hate for one another?
How many are ''marked'' because they are spiritually weak?
How many cliques are there in the congregation?
How many are sick at home or in the hospital where no one visits or calls?
BLONDIE:THANK YOU FOR WALKING IN THIS BULL FOR ALL OF US WHO LOST ALL RESPECT FOR THIS ORGANIZATION!

She asked me, ''Why would they go out today when people are celebrating Christmas''? I explained that everyone is home today and the WTS thinks that householders are more happy today and will listen more than usual.
I always thought that out of all the days people shouldn't be bothered by the preaching work...... it would be today. How come it's alright for Witnesses to bother people today but you couldn't bother them on meeting nights?

The Mormon's,Jehovah's Witnesses,and many others were called into existence to divert people from true Christianity.
I believe that with the wacky teachings of both the Mormon's and Jehovah's Witnesses this could be true. They both started in the late 1800's and have had a cult following since. What do you think?

February 2010 Study Watchtower - Millions Now Living 'May' Never Die
by Marni Mai injust noticed that in the february 2010 study edition of the watchtower, they refer to the "millions now living will never die" talk in 1918, but they have changed the title to "millions now living may never die".
only problem, they included the picture of the invitation to the talk, which says 'will'.. ooops.
it's on page 16. enjoy.. .

Great find!
They have a way of changing things in a subtle way. Most of the members have neither read or ever seen the book. Now,the word ''may'' will be ingrained in everyone's head. The ''light'' is getting darker and darker for the WTS.

Flipper : I'm the biggest Led Zeppelin fan out there. I had all their albums(before c.d.'s came out) and saw them live in concert in 1977 sitting in the 5th row. It was so loud that I couldn't hear for 2 days. I purchased a poster that night of the band and taped it on my wall when I got home. My mom (who was just starting to study with the Witnesses) took the poster down and ripped it into pieces. She said that the band and I were all posessed from the DEVIL.
I think that the album ''PHYSICAL GRAFFITI" was their best album. One thing I really liked about them was that no two albums ever sounded alike.
Here is a group called DREAD ZEPPELIN who mixed Elvis with Led Zeppelin. See what you think.
