many of us that have been out and any from this organization can now stand back and derive a clear picture of why this organization started and the reason it started.

interesting to note the people who started things off such as c.t.russell and his father j. russell both were business minded professionals who both must have certainly known the assets of .

advertising, they must have they owned 5 clothing stores.

Glass Clinking Still from Satan per latest QFR
by Open mind in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
my wife and i have for many years thought that glass clinking was soon going to go the way of wind chimes and pinatas.

we were both blown away by the recent "questions from readers" saying that toasting is still the work of the devil and not for christians.. i even had an elder in my hall admit the logic didn't really hold up.

anyway, i thought it was definitely "food at the proper time" .

i was listening to a radio program this morning regarding the war in iraq and someone made the statement of: "how would you feel if you were catholic and the government came and told you that you would need to convert to what the government believed.

" the radio personality relayed this as to what part of the war was all about -- conversion the western american culture.

isn't that suppose to be the type of persecution the jw's are supposed to get?

The Lord's prayer, why JW's never say it
by moomanchu in
1. watchtower
2. bible
we all know it's not an issue if people say the lord's prayer or not, but except for the fact that jw's make it an issue.

to them it's kinda like the boogie man and to say it makes you part of christendom, ripe for destruction.. this thread is in response to another thread.i finally took some time to look into information to make a reply.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/10/130602/2.ashx.

a jw commented on that thread.
