  The only difference one can compare between the two, is the Titanic sunk in a matter of hours, the WTS. might take decades to completely

  sink to its final end. ...... and probably will do so by its own internally expressed doctrines

  i just read through the zuckerberg letter to potential investors about the upcoming ipo.

  whether you love or hate fb, its interesting to consider how much of a problem it is for the wt.

  here are a couple of paragraphs from the letter that i really liked: full letter is here.

  The free and open information on the entire Net about the WTS. should really be seen as potentially the biggest enemy toward the WTS now.

  Information contained in the organizations own literature that was once conveniently removed or abolished by the WTS itself by can now be readily

  viewed by anyone. FaceBook in itself is just playing a small role in this in my opinion.

  The ironic thing that comes about now after 100 years of postulating their own identify is that they are forced to lie or twist the Truth

  to make themselves appear wholesome to their adherents today.

  The WTS's own history leaves open the question .... which religion is the false religion ?

  Can a religious publishing house be accused of being false religion ?

  The WTS,. has always been GREAT speculative bullshitters , the reason behind this of course is to attract the publics attention to its literature.

  The only odd and unusual aspect of this is that comes packaged up and presented as religious virtuosity.

  The WTS. with all of its long list of head editorial writers falsely sensationalized doctrines to evoke their own self empowerment and identity as being

  god's specially chosen organization. The majority of the public can see through these pretentious lies, some unfortunately are unable to.

  mcdonald's annouced they are stopping the use of pink goo, ammonium hydroxide, in their burgers...but:.

  propylene glycol, carmine food coloring, shellac, l-cycsteine(made from hair and hooves), lanolin gum, silicon-dioxide are common ingredients in our processed foods..

  The reason McDonald's burgers taste so crappy is because most of the ingredients are overly processed to be cheap to produce ,

  not to mention the high amount of fat in the hamburger.

  I think a lot of older (maybe younger ones) JW's are going to attempt/commit suicide....(READ)

  i've been in lurkmode lately, but with the news that i heard about don cornelius dying, it had me thinking...as this world goes on, and people are coping with this world...i think a lot jw's are going to realize that the end of the world isnt coming...there gonna become more despert, the realities of having to work, pay off debts, etc.

  a lot of jw's are going to realize that no magical sky daddy is come and 'take away there problems' and i think the more that they start to realize this, they get older, and there gonna start hating the reality that they have to face.

  i had a good friend who's father-in- law (who was a ministrial servant) who had bipolar disorder, killed himself in his car back in 2007. it was sad.

  One thing you can be confident of the WTS leaders have no worries to their own financial support for the immediate future,

  they have millions to rest on until their demise. Fear mongering in the world of religious charlatanism has shown its due worth.

  i'm not sure if this has been addressed here or not but i've been curious as to how obamacare stands to affect the wtbts and those serving at it's branches in the usa?

  has anyone looked at this?

  seems the catholics are all shook up about what obamacare stands to "make" them provide their "employees".

  There were JWS killing themselves back in the 1975 era, emotionally angst about that supposed impending doom time.

  Much time has passed on since those days and you can expect there are certain JWS who will end their life in the future over depression

  and anxiety. The supposed imminent Armageddon helped in the sales and proliferation of the WTS's literature and attracted attention from people

  but there were unforeseen damaging consequences for the believing adherents to this established doctrine.

  Draconian Rules for Attending "Special Convention"

  by BluesBrother in

  2. friends

  british dubs are invited to attend a special convention next summer in dublin , irish republic.

  o k, this kind of trip has been done many times before.

  however i have never seen such a crude and rigid set of rules that would apply to their own people going on a trip, at their own expense of course.

  I get the impression that the WTS. is trying in this particular instance to naturally select individuals into a class of the rich and healthy and leave

  the sick and poor apart from this choice selective group. The insinuation that a delegate should book at least a 7 day stay at the conference Hall/Hotel

  tells much of this endeavor as well as the appropriate health standard for receiving delegates.

  It has the odour of a JWS chartered vacation package, but its not really its a JWS convention.
