  What if you were a JW during WWII? Would you give in to Hitler and fight?

  by Brother Mike in

  so i pose this question to everyone.

  if you were a jw and lived in germany in wwii, how would you deal with the harsh cruelity of hitler?

  would you join his side so you may have a chance to live (meaning you'd serve in the miliatry and be on the front line) or would you keep on serving god and be executed?

  What is the key to free yourself from the Organization?

  by suavojr in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  they key to free yourself from the organization is having mental clarity of what is happening in relation to the watchtower, inside and out.

  their basic concept is that they are god's sole organization on earth.

  there really is no basis for anyone to make that statement.

  it truly is an organization of merrit based on QUANTITY! , not quality, you could have 45hrs of servie each and every damn month, you get the promotion. on the other hand, if you conduct one bible study with the same person for an hour each week, total of 4hrs, you're unworthy. the biggest problem I found was this very fact. Truly, CO, Elder, MS, Pioneer, any other title but Publisher, you are the lower class

  Investigation by Charity Commission for England & Wales - Could this be the Great Tribulation?

  there will be a cry of peace and security and then sudden destruction be instantly upon them as a snare.

  1 th 5:3.. wts have been claiming peace and security in their organisation for years, which of course, has been anything but.

  now they are being investigated by the charity commission for their handling of child abuse and other cases.

  some people will make something up of this, it isn't that big of a deal because it is localized to just one or two countries.

  What would a Father's Day commercial look like if it was made by JW's?

  a father's day commercial for bass pro came on and it got me thinking.

  it said, "remember when your dad took you camping and taught you how to fish?".

  so i started thinking about my childhood and what the commercial would be like for people like myself.. it would go something like this:.

  yup, it's a very depressing thing being a Witness. Growing up as a child seeing those scarey images in books, etc.....isolation alwalys at long odds for salvation, very depressing.

  it's very hard to tell if the numbers have fluctuated, so many move in and out all the time, you can't tell. I find they like to keep the congregations very large these days

  Are you complicit if you stay in?

  by mrhhome in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am going to throw down the gaunlet.

  those who know the truth but stay in anyways are complicit in actions of the jehovah witness organization.

  while i am sympathetic to the very difficult choices that they have to make, their unwillingness to confront the jw enables the organization.. some of you may remember my story.

  I just don't see how they have the nerve to ask anyone for money when they discourage education themselves

  Families are really good at using their feelings to influence your actions. In a way they are guards, there are many guards.
