Very sad. I pray for the relatives.
This is contradicting with God protecting his people with his name...
But so sad for this family.
Mexico is becomming a hell on earth.
eight family members killed in mexico massacremexico | november 17, 2013. mexican police found sunday a family of eight, including three children, stabbed to death and tied down in their home in the northern city of ciudad juarez.. a two-year-old boy survived the attack and was handed to neighbors, local police said.. the chihuahua state prosecutor's office said the assailants apparently forced their way inside the house and killed two men, three women and three children between the ages of four and six.. their mouths were covered with duct tape and their hands and feet were tied.
neighbors said they heard gun shots but authorities said the victims had stab wounds.. neighbors said the house owner was a car salesman.. the family was supposed to attend a meeting of jehovah's witnesses when they were attacked inside their home on sunday morning, according to testimonies.. they were discovered dead after members of the congregation went to look for them.. ciudad juarez, which borders the us state of texas, was once the deadliest city in mexico amid a turf war between drug cartels.. more than 10,000 people have been killed in the city since 2006 but the murder rate began to decline in 2011.. local officials say the drop in violence is due to tougher policing and crime prevention programs, but security experts believe it began to wane after the sinaloa drug cartel defeated the rival juarez gang.. read latest breaking news from newsmax.com http://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/mexico-crime-murder/2013/11/17/id/537112#ixzz2kziajt8f.

i am reading a book by victor sebestyn called "revolution 1989 - the fall of the soviet empire".
if you lived through the astonishing collapse of communism in the late '80s i highly recommend it.. what has struck me is the description of life under communism in the six soviet satellite states of east germany, poland, czechoslovakia, hungary, romania and bulgaria.. here is a couple of paragraphs that really stood out to me as a possible parallel to the current climate in the regime of jw.org.. ---------------------------------------------------------.
once idealism or revolutionary fervour had disappeared - certainly by the soviet invasion of czechosloakia in 1968 - the system stagnated.
Did you know the current Russia statesecretary of foreign affairs was raised in soviet burocraty?lavrov is still playing political chess.

wouldn't it be nice if they said 'you know what, we've made millions in property sales recently, lets donate a couple million to a philipines relief fund..'
ten vans full, probably just for jw's.
What i personaly can't stand is the witness opinion "thanks to Jehovah a small part of the witness has died. And because br A. didn't go to field service he died in his house... blablabla"
so today, two elders from a congregation i was in two years ago came by the house.
they said they wanted to talk to me about things that they have heard, and that they want to talk to me very quickly, as soon as possible.
perhaps before this week ends.. i don't know what to do!!
Don't meet. Stay in control.

greetings, gorby.

friends,.
who was in any doubt that our jw believe is a marketing model, see this pictures of the still existing hq of jw at columbia heights.. earlier comments on jwn that something is going to change in the organisation, these comments are true.. in a few years we will not talk about the watchtower society, we wil talk about jw.org.
i think the current leadership will make a transfer to a new start.
Friends,
Who was in any doubt that our JW believe is a marketing model, see this pictures of the still existing HQ of JW at Columbia Heights.
Earlier comments on JWN that something is going to change in the organisation, these comments are true.
In a few years we will not talk about the Watchtower Society, we wil talk about JW.ORG
I think the current leadership will make a transfer to a new start. No more old Watchtower related problems about years, presidents, scandals.
A new begin: the organization JW.ORG
Without me of course.

yesterday i was at a supermarket and i walked right in the arms of a nice jw couple.. they are so nice, they could be our family friends, if we went to the congregation.. how it went: mr nice walked by and said "hello" and walked straight on, without looking to me.. his very nice wife smiled and looked surprised to see me, a look only a jw can have, looking to a poor fader like me.. she said "hello, how are you?
see you, good bye?
how can these nice people so cold?.

His very nice wife smiled and looked surprised to see me, a look only a JW can have, looking to a poor fader like me.
She said "Hello, how are you? See you, good bye?" and was already gone when I said "We are ok, how are you?"
How can these nice people so cold?
Ehh, how could I be so cold...
Religion is a snare and a racket, dividing people who could be friends.

it just came out yesterday that the nsa has spied on the vatican and pope francis.
when i went over my parents house yesterday, you could see the excitement, the energy in their eyes when they talked about it.
my dad even pumped his fist like he won something when he was talking about it.
The older JW's are waiting for the attack on the Vatican. The young JW's are waiting for their next IOS update.
just read the topic of atlantis who has to quit posting boe letters on jwd due to watchtower legal worry's.. so, posters at jwd / jwn are the mouse and watchtower business corporation is the elephant.. it disturbs me to see how a big multi billion religion corporation can silence free people by intimidation.. it's because we are extreme peacefull people, otherwise i can imagine that a mouse can become a militant by frustration.. gorby.
