  Gerrit Loesch video from this week's meeting

  by neat blue dog in

  2. beliefs

  he talks about how a group of 5,000 broke away from the organization due to distrust of government agents infiltrating the jws.

  they weren't regarded as apostates, just distrustful.

  he uses phrases like "their leader" and "his elders", and how they had a meeting with the governing body and made the decision for all these thousands to reintegrate them into the jws, splitting them up among congregations.

  This video with him commenting is self promotional talk of how faithful and loyal he is to the organization, his spiritual strength and all of that.

  He worked for the Org. at the Austrian branch when certain countries placed a ban on the JWS, so he got the GB job from out those efforts.

  All that vigor and dedication has paid off, for now he gets to retire as one the most powerful men in the Org , complete with full medical and dental care and air flights to travel around, all paid for by the Watchtower Corporation.

  Loyalty and dedication to the Watchtower Corporation or a mean Jah had paid off in complete fulfillment .

  a new fox poll says biden is up by 12 percentage points.

  I think the Democrats will win taking over both the Congress and the Senate in the process.

  The mid term elections showed a trend to that direction as well.

  Trump has suffered too many hits in his term as president, add in the recent pandemic and racial unrest problems and you have population looking for resolve and answers from their chief public representative .
  

  I dont think the democrats have put up a candidate that will overwhelm the election either. Biden just doesn't have the vigor and articulation than a younger candidate would have, might be his actual age, might be to the fact that he's been in politics for a long time now.

  I think Biden will win over Trump for the reasons that I think people can see through Trump's general incompetence as well pretentiousness, which overtime developed a lack of respect and confidence in the man, the impeachment didn't help him either.

  Biden would be smart to take with him a woman like Kamala Harris as a VP running mate.

  She is super intelligent and highly educated holding both a law and political science degrees. She is way smarter and better educated than either Trump or Biden.

  Add in the fact that she is a person of color (Indian Decedent) which at this time in the US might create even more general appeal to the broad scope of the population.

  

  A quote from Biden .....

  Last August Biden said he was open to choosing a person of color as his running mate, suggesting it might be his preference. "Whomever I pick, preferably it will be someone who was of color and/or a different gender, but I'm not making that commitment until I know that the person I'm dealing with I can completely and thoroughly trust as authentic and on the same page [as me]," he said.

  One viable answer would be because some people came knocking on your front door handing out literature.

  Mind you all the information on those pieces of literature were construed intentionally to attract people's attention and interest.

  Overlapping Generation

  by pandorasbox1914 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the september 2015 broadcast had david splane explain matthew 24:34 “truly, i say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place”.

  his explanation of this scripture was by means of a chart to indicate an overlapping generation.. .

  no scripture was used to show the overlapping generation concept, and as a result it makes no sense.. to illustrate how crazy this concept is, look at the lyrics of the song my generation.. my generation.

  Or in other words we make shit up so that we can retain are supporting positions within the organization (GB), which includes financial support.
  

  Listen, obey and do not question the higher authority, which is us because we have been specifically chosen by god over his earthly belongings.

  A considerable number showed an interest in the truth but were not

  willing to make a dedication to God.

  That statement comes off quite clearly of self appointed arrogance by the GB men who claim to be dedicated to god and his will and purpose.
  

  Asserting they alone and their organization (JWS) distinctively are the ones that are doing just that, yet if you look carefully at their expressed and created doctrines they are bibically false prophet charlatans dedicated to their own endeavors, not exactly what god laid out and instructed for his faithful dedicated followers.

  JWS are indoctrinated to be dedicated and avowed to these men "Discreetly" in their acts of apostasy and sin.

  Aren't all religions a ploy for power and control, with a little bit of money thrown into the mix ?

  Lloyd Evans exploitation videos.

  by phoenixrising in

  1. social
  2. current

  i used to watch his videos on the monthly gb talks.

  he has went over the top a few times doing one video on why being liberal idiot is a good thing.

  he has made comments on the usa not knowing shit about what he was desperately trying to talk about.

  The problem with Lloyd might be the fact that he is trying to make a living $$$ by being an outspoken anti JWS critic.

  we have to get rid of these racist relics.

  i propose that we destroy all these bottles of syrups and burn every pancake box !

  we need to get rid of anything that reminds us of anything negative concerning slavery.. in boston they decapitated the head of christopher columbus and got rid of his statue.

  I really dont get this statue defamation. ???
  

  History is history you cant erase what has happened in the past.

  Should the Italians remove all the statues of all the terrible deplorable Caesars which ruled at one time ?
  

  Actually I think its better for society to acknowledge and accept what has happened in the past so that we can reflect and remind are selves what we need to change and be aware of .

  Jehovah's Witnesses Class Warfare (parallels to Karl Marx)

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  among jehovah’s witnesses, the elite consists of 144,00 kings and priests who have been specially selected (anointed) to rule in heaven (as transformed spirit beings) over the second group (great crowd) who remain human on a paradise earth.. .

  in marxist theory, the elite use wealth to obtain political power and control ideology consisting of shaping the worldview of the underclass.

  (their role in society.).

  Utopia is impossible in this world of physical reality, waiting for this happen is a human folly of the worse kind, to embrace and promote this is to create problematic delusions to those who do..
  

  Its better to strive to make the living experience for all humans in the physical world to which we live.

  Embracing ancient mythological expressions is always going to oppression and retard human advancement .

  Why ?
  

  Because its composed in human ignorance
