  The Watchtower Org., or Ogre, as I like to call them because they are large and hideous. Ogres have been depicted as unintelligent and a clumsy enemy ,dangerous in that it feeds on it's human victims.

  However I digress slightly and the point I would like to make is that no matter how much they twist the truth with proclamation and denial they cannot escape from the fact that they claim to speak with Jehovah's authority and when they have spoken in the past through those bits of folded paper called the Watchtower they have claimed Jehovah's authority in printing spectacular errors time after time.

  Jehovah must be getting pretty well miffed by now with all their wrong predictions in his name, either that or the Org. is not what they claim but just a few generations of men who have presumed and fantasised too much and God has nothing to do with them in the slightest never has and never will.

  I feel ethically compromised by Rick Fearon being allowed to continue posting here

  i'm not entirely sure why, but rick has been the biggest trigger for me.

  i have said some very mean things to him that i regret and i apologize to rick for them.

  but what he is doing leaves me feeling dirty and i don't even know him.

  I agree with Terry on this subject matter and I hate to have disagree with others who would like to ban dare I say shun Rick .

  We all have our own way of expressing ourselves which will not be pleasing to everyone let individuals have their say let us not act like Jehovah's Witnesses.

  By all means criticise or praise but let's continue together to combat the common enemy which is the Watchtower Society.

  The latest change in Watchtower vocabulary to catch out the unwary

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i got a copy of the recent kingdom ministry the other day and it reminded me of something in the book the orwellian world of jehovha's witnesses by heather and garry botting.

  it's on the front page of the december issue of the km, they have a heading called "not 'alternative' witnessing" where they explain that the term is no longer considered appropriate and "public" witnessing should be used instead.. in the orwellian world of jehovah's witnesses the bottings discuss the importance of the particular language jws use to set themselves apart from other people.

  they redefine common words to give them a particular slant, such as "brother", "sister", "literature" and so on.

  Do they still say " out on the work " for going out door to door ?

  If they asked me that now I would say that I had been out street walking and found it most uplifting.

  Great find Terry thanks for that it says so much in a short time about the looney Witness confidence trick that is defind by the Watchtower as God's true religion.

  The German army during WW2 had some fanatical nazis soldiers refusing blood transfusions on the grounds that their pure Aryan blood might be tainted if they accepted blood . They were also similar to the Witnesses in that they thought they were the master race.

  The WATCHTOWER isn't DECEITFUL , they are just IMPERFECT

  by Minimommi in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i recently started questioning my beliefs and i am not happy with what i found out.

  i am married to a born in who admits that wtbs has some problems.

  one of his favorite scriptures to quote is psalms 146:3 to "not put your trust in nobles", including the so called fds.

  If they are God's representatives on earth God must be getting really mad at them judging by their track record on forcasting and the manner in whicht they mislead their followers .

  God will find them and settle the score even if they do move out of Brooklyn they can run but they can't hide.

  I followed them once for a religious education and boy did it teach me a lesson.

  What is the actual PRODUCT being sold by Jehovah's Witnesses??

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  madison avenue became famous for selling the sizzle rather than the steak.. the point of advertising was to create an appetite for a product.. sometimes, in order to create desire for the product, advertising consisted of imposing an embedded fear that could only.

  be resolved by purchasing the solution: the product.. .

  four hundred and twelve billion dollars annually is spent on advertsing in the u.s. ($412 billion).

  Yes I think it's life insurance buy into it and you won't have to worry about death that's their scam .They can't lose Witnesses regulary invest, regulary die, and the Watchtower doesn't need to pay out thank you very much.

  Their sales brochures are the books and magazines their sales meeting are held at the Kingdom Hall the group conferences are held to boost morale as well as sales and so it goes on year after year generating plenty of money honey.

  Thanks I must remember to fill it out accurately with plenty of hours on it if I ever lose my marbles and return.

  I suppose big money donations will do the trick as well.

  You are right Terry I never understood the inconsistancy and I could not understand how someone who was maybe very very wicked and not baptised could in fact be embraced and made to feel welcome just because they were a bible study and went to the meetings when someone who was up standing but objected to a Watchtower doctrine could get the boot.

  If I smoked 4 cigars a year one at Christmas one at New Year one on my birthday and one in the Kingdom Hall car park would they kick me out?

  Incidentally I'm not in but suppose I was.
