  A MODERN FICTION: the lie which became a GOVERNING BODY

  by TerryWalstrom in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  safe to say, if you walked up to any of the 8 million jehovah's witnesses on earth today and told them the.

  governing body was a fiction, not only would they refuse to believe you--they'd consider you their immediate enemy!.

  what if i told you jw's embrace a mental construct which is at odds with history?.

  All must be ready to obey...

  by Half banana in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in view of the recent financial pressures being spun as opportunities to hasten armageddon, i think we should look again at the meaning behind their cultic warning of "all must be ready to obey intructions, whether appearing sound or not".

  by dripping these creepy injunctions into the watchtower study and therefore into the conditioned and receptive mind of the jw, how long will it be before they are able to decree something like this?......

  Question: What would it take to get the BORG'S tax exempt status REVOKED?

  by Black Man in

  1. jw

  i've always wondered about this.

  i've always felt the main reason the borg made publishers do time slips/field service reports was to show that they are doing a community service to justify their tax exempt status.

  we all know about their money grabs with the kh build scams, their selling off millions of dollars in real estate, etc.

  Brooklyn Layoffs and Halt to Kingdom Hall construction projects

  by James Jack in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  a good source just just told me that at morning worship today that the governing body announced that a total of 1600 bethelites will be let get go and not transferred to warwich when the last property is sold in brooklyn and all kingdom hall building projects are on hold for at least a year so that all the focus will be on the preaching work.

  Wow that is infamous - they say that in the end, despite all the logical, rational reasons for making ttatt "your own", it's usually an emotional reaction to something that wakes you up in the end.

  Well this obnoxious recording was my emotional reaction, it sickened me to the core that a co religonist of mine could make such a speech with no shame.

  Excerpts from "The Book that Jesus Approved"

  by clarity in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  funny how the catholics see jesus outline on a sheet or on a piece of toast & revere it, but jw's just throw away books that they say jesus looked at and accepted as the only truth !

  bumping a very interesting thread from a few years back...... .

  Help Me Undertand...

  by DarioKehl in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  according to the 2014 annual report:.

  "worldwide, there are 115,416 congregations of jehovahs witnesses and 8,201,545 publishers.".

  i don't understand how the borg is facing financial difficulty.

  That's it! The Jesus stories are most reasonably explained as myth. History makes this obvious.

  by Island Man in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a careful examination of the historical pagan religious context existing at the time of the genesis of christianity leads any reasonable person to conclude that jesus is just another one of several similar myths.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kn7teoa9ark.
