  when a religion

  by ssn587 in

  i am wanting to know when the ibs became a religion, it my thought that up until awhile in the 1920s, the society was just a publishing company not hiding behind the idea of being a religion.

  so when did they become one in actuality?

  i know they claim that when jesus came in 1918 to judge all the religons he found them and appointed them as his fds in 1919. but really all nonsense aside, just when did they officially become a religion?.

  recently talked with a brother who had the following experience.. he and wife had been on a trip out of town, and they started rehashing old wrongs, he had mentioned that she wasn't very nice to him lately in fact the last several years.

  she wanted to know why he had felt that way.

  when he told me that right then and there i mentioned that they or at least he shouldn't have brought up old or current wrongs.
