Watchtower= Poor kid donates his only pig to Society what about you? W.T.F!
by Witness 007 inwatchtower nov 1 2007 p.17 {1889} "zions watchtower has jehovah for it's backer and while this is the case it will never beg nor petition men for support.".
"mexico... manuel says, my grandmother gave me a mother pig.....iam sending as a donation what i recieved from selling the pig.....$110 dollars..." {now i ask you couldn't manuel have used that $110 bucks for himself?}.
"14 year old girl from cameroon {another poor country where people can't afford food}....school supplies, i sold two of last years text books $5 dollars i am contributing this plus an aditional $1.82 from my savings...." {this is very sub-liminal, poor kids are donating so how much will you rich folks give?}.

umm, a witness wouldnt even touch those books. It would be considered a sin anyway (which i never agreed with), so i really doubt it.

there is a pattern of "new light" in the bible, although im not sure if or how it applies to the WTBTS --
the information presented in the bible is progressive by its very nature, and even the understanding of what is written is shown to be coming in a progressive way. Jesus even said the apostles wouldnt understand everything in the present time -- and there are many examples of this.
does this justify what has happened with jws? I dont know. But i know that it doesnt look all that bad, from this point of view. Truth is not absolute when you are dealing with imperfect men. -

scans of WT pubs from 1946-1980 torrent anyone?
by Solace1998 ini just received the scans of 1879-1946 on torrent, and it didnt take long at all.
does anyone have the remaining ones available?
the earlier ones are great, but i would like to focus on the 1965-1975 era.

Why do many JWs neglect their health conditions?
by navytownroger inmy former bible study conductor has heart problems and very high blood pressure, but doesn't seem concerned about it.
another witness i knew had heart problems but never went to doctors, & eventually dropped dead suddenly.
given that cigarette smoking is a disfellowshipping offense, why aren't jws reprimanded when they otherwise neglect & jeopardize their health?

" Just because we are the same age doesn't mean what i am saying isn't the truth Solace. "
you being a liar was only one of the possibilities -- it is more likely you were just around a bad bunch of witnesses -

Now Witnesses saying "Gas Prices" show we are in the Tribulation!!
by Witness 007 inyes it's not offical but witnesses here are saying that gas prices and increased cost of living show that armagedon is sooooo close.....haven't they heard of world war 1 and 2 when people didn't have sugar, gas, coffee or anything?
armagedon didn't come....we bounced back.
china in the 1920's and ukraine during the war people "hunted" children to eat!
