  If the Watchtower ceased to exist right now, what would this mean for you?

  by JH in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what would it change in your life right now if the watchtower fell apart and didn't exist anymore?.

  maybe some would want to join another realigion right away, because they still believed a bit of what they preached and didn't want to join a false religion, just as the jw's brand all other religions..... .

  Let's see.

  No more people dying because they refused a blood transfusion.

  No more kids being abused because of the "hidden" pedophiles.

  No more loved ones being torn away from their families because of ex-communication.

  Yes, I think that would be cause for celebration...

  3.9% interest

  does anyone else find it terrible that the society is charging interest for congregations to build kingdom halls????

  why the hell are people putting money in the "special" box marked kingdom hall fund??

  my boyfriend who already hates the witnesses found this absolutely horrible.

  Welcome to the board!!!

  Not only this. But from what I understand "The Org." profited during the Katrina disaster too. After all the Kingdom Halls were destroyed by Katrina, the local congregatons rebuilt the halls using their own materials and of course "free" labor. But if any local congregations received insurance checks, they were supposed to automatically forward these on to the Watchtower Society in Brooklyn.

  Total scam

  Jehovah's Witnesses bizarre reaction to world events

  by jambon1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  isnt it a bit strange how jw's react to the different things that go on in the world?.

  after 9/11 i heard a brother describe the death and carnage as 'tragic but exciting'.

  it seems to me that jw's have their heads so far up their own arseholes that they cant even react in a humane way when things happen in the world.

  It's the nature of the beast. I remember after the "Jim Jones" tragedy in 1978, when almost 1000 people commited suicide. Even young children were among the dead. There was no sympathy, rememberance of this sad event, nor any offering of prayers for the families of the victims. Instead an elder at our hall said, "Isn't it wonderful friends that we have the TRUE religion. We dont have to worry about being led by a mad man like these people were."

  Just ran my BEST race time ever!!! (sorta)

  by Elsewhere in

  2. friends

  29 minutes and 00 seconds in a 5k (3.1 mile) race this morning.

  that is a 9 minute 40 second mile pace.. 9th place for my age group.. .

  there's just ooooone tiny problem...... after the race we all found out that the cops changed the race path without telling anyone and so instead of 3.1 miles we only ran 2.8 miles.. i was sooo excited about how great i had ran.

  my mom passed away yesterday.

  she was a die-hard jw.

  i tried to explain why i couldn't accept certain teachings but rather than rationally consider what i had to say she chose to believe i was just "confused".

  WILL THE WATCHTOWER EVER DO THE RIGHT THING AND APOLOGIZE?

  by nvrgnbk in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  will this arrogant, presumptuous organization that has ruined so many lives, that loves to talk about humility and modesty, ever present a formal apology to all those who've suffered at their hands?.

  would it really matter if they did?.
