  How do you personally deal with your still in family JWS ?

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for myself i just try to avoid them intentionally maybe see them once every couple of years on average.

  they used to be easy going but over the last 10 years or so they got more cult like and distant and i'm really not bothered by that, maybe a bit.

  they stick to their own or other members like they are their family so, its makes it unattractive for myself to connect and reach out to them anymore.

  I think the constant reinforcement orchestrated by the GB heads of keeping a distance from non or ex members has taken over their wanting social connection with us non members of are family.

  Shame really but thats the kind of high control aspect of this one particularly religoius cult, there are others likewise out there.
  

  I was never baptized so to them that makes for a unique relationship than people who were baptized, all construed and indoctrinated by the WTS.

  There must of been a money making scheme behind the 75 thing

  It was a literature proliferation scheme intent and endeavored to further enhancing the literature the WTS published, in others words it was blatant corruption by men such as F Franz and H Knorr.

  A lot shit happened to people because those men and their propagating corruption.

  An extended amount of Power and Money in the hands of men can turn them to devious apathetic assholes.

  The situation with Trump has mostly come about to the fact he is in contact with so many people on a daily basis.

  Yes they are tested but they are also in contact with people outside the activity of the White house. It was really only a matter of time that someone would pass the virus onto him and his wife.

  The game the WTS played onto people was making people believe in their lies and bullshit all supported by the belief in the bible and their holy spirit driven interpretations of the bible.

  F. Franz made the proclamation that the 6000 years of mankind's existence ending actually in Oct of 1975, a verifiable example of the lying bullshit that guy was up to.

  " Stay Alive Til '75 "

  I knew of a JWS kid that killed himself mostly because this hyped up lying bullshit.

  One thing I still wonder about to this day is why didn't JWS (we) back then critically think about why was it that all of this doctrinal teaching of Armageddon soon, Christ has returned, this generation is the last one of the old system of things, came only from the Watchtower Corporation when there were hundreds of Christian faiths that were not saying similar things ?

  In reality what we were really doing was sharing in the sins of apostate false prophets being mentally exploited and manipulated by men running a publishing house.

  JWS today do not know that the WTS used the 6000 years of mankind's existence 3 times in the 20th century , starting around the early 1900's.

  So what time were the brothers running ahead of themselves ?

  Maybe they were propagating a date to drawn attention to the literature they were publishing

  As in ..... " Christ has returned the end of this system of things is upon us "

  The WTS has been involved in commercialized false prophet charlatanism for over 140 years.

  To confirm that all you have to do is read its literature starting back to the late 1800's

  The emotional entanglements of politics can bring out the worse of people.
  

  In regards to a contagious potentially deadly virus that can effect the broad base of a given population, honest up to date and transparent information should be presented forward from all top governmental leaders.

  i found an article at zerohedge explaining how a state sponsored microchip will be redy for use in the spring for detecting corona virus infections before people feel symptoms.. the article expect that majority of the people will line up to take it.. i think this will become the mark of the beast revelation 13 speaks about.. hereis the article: .

  Kosonen the book of Revelation in the bible is fictional mythology, its not based in reality.
  

  There is a reason why people who suffer from paranoid schizophrenia are attracted to fear mongering religoius cults. (JWS)
  

  Paranoid schizophrenia is characterized by predominantly positive symptoms of schizophrenia, including delusions and hallucinations. These debilitating symptoms blur the line between what is real and what isn’t, making it difficult for the person to lead a typical life.

  The Watch Tower Generation

  by waton in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it so happens that my grandfather and i share the same birthday; -- this month.

  i lived with him from 1930 to ~ 1947. so, following the parenting pattern in our family, he would be born, be alive by ~ 1880, the same age as the "watchtower magazine" , therefore, you could say, we both lived in the wt era, right ?

  dare we say we belong to the wt generation,?.

  The WTS has to lie and twist numbers to make themselves appear truthful and honest.
  

  The reason for that is because the past leaders of this organization were not honest and truthful.

  Doctrines such as 1914 were not based upon accurate bible interpretation but were propagated mostly for their usefulness in proliferating literature, which one could say it was successful.

  The main problem with the JWS religion is that it is inherently founded upon false doctrines of theology..
