Letter regarding the WTS from the UN

by heybaby in

ok, so i keep reading on here how the wts was associated with the un.

i had never heard anything about this.

i guess i shouldn't be surprised, since the un is the "beast" and i know the wts would never let the congregations know they were in bed with them.

Thanks for that link, i haven't really researched much about this as my bug bear is the 607-1914 issue.

I have bookmarked it, i didn't realise the UN had posted anything like this.

today, the international crime court celebrates its tenth anniversary .

i believe it has the potential to become a powerful tool against worldwide violations of human rights .

here's an introductory article on the court's proceedings and future activities:.

I don't think we're going to be heading towards world law at all as some of the big players haven't signed up to it.

How do JW's arrive at 537BCE for the release of the jews by Cyrus?

by digderidoo in

from all of my research so far on the 607 issue the only argument that jw's have for it is the 70 year period counting backwards from 537bce.

as 539bce is the accepted date for cyrus conquering babylon, why do they say 537bce is the date he released the jews and not 538bce or 536bce for instance?.

So i am correct in saying that 537BCE can not be proved?

How would the Society give up 1914?

by donny in

during the 1930's when the society was quietly moving jesus' presence from 1874 to 1914, it only seemed to ruffle a few feathers and most accepted this "brighter light.

" how could the society abandon 1914 and still keep most of its followers?

They will just keep quiet about it for a good number of years and then mention something later. A bit like 1925, that stopped getting mentioned. The famous "millions now living will never die", they just went silent on that too. I suspect by 2014 you will not here much mentioned of the significance of the date.

Name something that JWs believe in that isn't in the Bible

by Awakened at Gilead in

my favorites are:.

"paradise earth": not in the bible.

"great crowd" of "other sheep" - two unrelated texts... put them together, and voila!, you just changed the destiny of millions!.

No beards

Skirts should be below the knee and above the ankle

Men cannot have an ear pearcing

No tattoos

Shirt (white preferred) and tie must be worn at a meeting

Jackets must be worn when handling microphones

And many, many more....

So, what do historians say is the right year? It's not 607bce, so what is it?

587/6 BCE white dove. Only JW's come up with 607BCE, they would lose their 1914 doctrine if they changed it.
