  WATCHTOWER QUOTE RE UN NGOs NAILS THEIR OWN ASSES!

  by MadApostate in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i'm pulling this out of the original thread since people are blowing by this as if it were nothing.. the blue portion appears on page 17 of the june 1, 1991 watchtower, in the article titled their refuge--a lie!, which criticizes "christendom" for seeking help from the united nations rather than jah.. .

  "prayer and meditation at the united nations"-- robert muller .

  "prayer, meditation and spirituality at the un are fascinating subjects.

  Whilst Hillary enjoys his evening, maybe you could check this website.

  < http://www.preteristarchive.com

  It's pretty extensive.

  Then Hillary will fill in the gaps! Drink a carafe (of Chianti) for me, my man.

  Also Faithful2Jah, might I recommend "The Parousia" by J. Stuart Russell.

  these letters will blow your mind!.

  it's hard to beleive that one or two small-minded men in the service dept.

  could be responsible for thousands of medical emergencies going bad or even death.

  First off, I wish say many thanks to Hawk in conveying our feelings to Bro. Jensen.
  Brother Jensen, your patient correspondence with the society speaks volumes about your character. What can I add except to say that God has seen fit to use you in a very important way. May he continue to give you strength in the coming difficult days ahead. Your quest for truth will be rewarded. Thank you for your courageous stand.

  the other day, i was messaged by a young jw guy (using yahoo messenger, where i am breezyone2001; chat me up, gang!).

  his opening line to me was, "why are you attacking the witnesses?

  " i responded by asking him in what way i was attacking the witnesses, and he said that he saw my name in a yahoo club for ex-jw's.

  The Staff Meeting

  by teenyuck in

  the staff meeting.

  the boss called a spontaneous staff meeting in the middle of a particularly stressful week.

  when everyone gathered, the boss, who understood the benefits of having fun, told the burnt-out staff that the purpose of the meeting was to have a quick contest, whose theme was "viagra advertising slogans.".

  he kindly sent me a copy of a letter he received from the wts office in pennsylvania and gave me permission to post it.

  i don't have time to fix the formatting right now.. .

  We appreciate your sharing.

  Stephen Bates has such a way of letting the WT know he has their number.

  It cracks me up!

  No Change in 1991 - Library Card

  by Lionel_P_Hartley in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i received the folowing two emails from dana loytved who is senior reference librarian at the un library in nyc.. in view of her first reply i asked her what procedure the wts used to access the library before 1991. her second reply is a bit cryptic but she states with confidence that there were no changes in procedure.

  i don't want to pester these kind folks any more.. .

  the procedure for a library pass is the following: the interested party needs to fill out an application form and supply a letter of recommendation in support of the research.

  Hello Lionel.

  I just wanted to add my thanks for your time and effort in this matter.
  As Hawk noted, if it was not for JosephAlward this issue would not remain to the fore. And I guess we should be thankful for his apparent pedantry in this. I mean no offense to Joseph in saying that. We all hold our belief system dear.
  Lionel, your tenacity has been invaluable throughout this debate. It must have been exhausting. While Joseph's objections are important, I personally think you should be commended equally.

  Thank you, thank you, thank you.

  PS I also find myself largely in agreement with Noam Chomsky.
  Have you read anything by Micheal Parenti?

  perhaps we could organize a "regional" gathering.
