Yes, god proclaims the sanctity of life then goes about killing people randomly without prejudice.
You know it almost sounds like people were making up stories about their God arbitrarily to fulfill their own needs and purpose.

Is Biblical Morality Situational, Based Upon the Arbitrary Whims of Yahweh?
by leavingwt inis biblical morality situational, based upon the arbitrary whims of yahweh?
murder is wrong... if god orders it however, then murder is right, and failing to murder is a sin.. .

does the gb really believe or is this a game ?
by mP inim assuming we all realise the gb may be many things but the individuals are not fools.
given the changes in ideas, formulation of new light and so on, do they buy the fascade they are presenting ?
if theres anyone in there, surely they as men, know how very man made it has always been.

They are certainly aware of the structured power built into this organization and their positional standing as individuals within it.
Their efforts are contained in supporting the organization through self endeavored propaganda which actualizes the self supporting of themselves
as hierarchal leaders. One can say that they believe in the power of the organization mostly over and above the identity
that this organization publicly professes. Being chosen for this position might even accentuate their beliefs in this organization also.
Once a person reaches to the top of this pyramid its a mighty long fall down for anyone to consider removing themselves from it,
considering all the perks and personal stature surrounding this position .
This is most likely why GB members rarely get removed(DF) or resign.
Its always best being on top looking down at the weaker vessels below you.

Iran vs Israel and the USA = WW III (Should we be worried?)
by Me Myself and I inthis particular bowl of soup has been bubbling for some time now, with various posturing and toing and froing.
looking at the media and the subsequent comments from israel regarding iran, it looks clear that something is going to happen soon, very soon..... with iran having the ears of both china and russia, israel having the us and of course we (uk) as the states poodle on the other side.
i wonder if this could be the beginning of the end?.

Don't concern yourself with anything prophetical said in the bible, they were just stories told to create relevance toward the god the
ancient Israelites worshiped. There were many things said by the ancients by select civilizations about what their god would and could do.
As far as a all out war between Israel and Iran, I wouldn't be overly confident, in spite of the recent threats and counter threats.
Iran knows if they started up something with the Israel that the US would join in making the effort a loss cause, nuclear attack or otherwise.

There's no question there's a lot of skeletons inside the Watchtower closet, that most JWS today have little if any knowledge about.
I think the most insidious part of the WTS. is in the way it exploited people into distributing its published works, who were just naive believers
who became easy to manipulate.
Something that gets skips over most of the time when there's two people knocking on your door with big smiles on their faces. .
The WTS's doctrines needed a lot of protection surrounding them for they were speculatively weak and basically had no scriptural support.
Scriptural support a matter of fact comes in with the opposite, with no one, even the said FDSL to have a calculable date of Christ's return
but thats being too truthful and intellectually honest for its usefulness in drawing up attention for literature sales.
When you think about it, what other religion has officially proclaimed that Jesus returned to heaven in 1914 ?

There many insertions clearly seen in the bible, it comes to no surprise since the writers of the bible were trying to create
important relevance to their particular god of worship.
it becomes very awkward and contrived and phony.
Isn't that an accurate description to most religions though ?

I think there's too much complacent similarity in the fact that J Rutherford and H Covington were both lawyers,
in regards to the way the policy of judgment and penalization (DF) against the members of the JWS came to be.
Of course much of these lawyers efforts in the courts was to fight against any opposition toward the free operations of WTS.
but they also had another plausible reason in the protection of the organization, which was focused toward its own members who started to pose
detrimental questions upon the organization's doctrines. They needed very much to control and decimate any dissenters quickly,
for in true reality the WTS's doctrines were devised and constructed to support the proliferation of the organization's published works. $$$
As it known there were no public DFing in biblical times just an open suggested warning against associating with people who were deemed evil.
Interesting too is the fact that both men were known to be alcoholics in their later years.
Was their conscience getting weary from what they had done concerning the WTS. and how they treated its many devoted members ?

I wonder what kind of acute scrutiny one goes through in the process to keep out those deemed as crazy anointed ones
for selection of the GB.
Wouldn't being psychopathic be a valuable asset for this position ?

You can bet there were a pile of boxes of the WTS's literature already at hand to by sold after the talk !
Old habits die hard .
A commercialized fraud by exploiting the already established belief in the bible.
The WTS. is just another form or exercise of charlatanism $$$
