a while ago i transcribed a video interview with rabbi michael berenbaum from the university of judaism.
the interview concerns jehovah's witnesses during the second world war in the german concentration camp system.
berenbaum is a historian and specifically researches jehovah's witnesses during the shoah and also the idea of martyrdom.
@Saintbertholdt
That was an excellent article. Thanks so much for all the work in transcribing it and posting it here.
I want us to look at that moment and understand that the person before us is acting out of an integrity that is uniquely their own, and that's a part of their tradition...and the integrity of that tradition was tested by fire.
I agree that it is an individual demonstration of integrity and it took some bold cojones for JW's in nazi Germany to do as they did. But remembering the shenanigans that Rutherford was up to at the beginning of the nazi take over German society, with his apologetic letter to Hitler and his anti-Semitic denouncing of Jews--I have a hard time believing that JW actions in Germany reflected anything from Rutherford's leadership.
German JW's called themselves Bible Students, and they wore the purple triangles because of their dedication to God and Christ. These Ernste Bibelforscher, or Earnest Bible Students as they were called in Germany suffered because of their Christian integrity not because Rutherford's rebranding of Bible Students as Jehovah's Witnesses.
Meanwhile their "Generalissimo" was enjoying a lavish lifestyle in mansion in San Diego, with his own young nutritionist nurse and two 12 cylinder Cadillacs in the garage and plenty of expensive scotch to survive the California heat. In fact Rutherford thought little of the Ernste Bibelforscher representatives in the WT Branch in Germany and blamed them for his own failures and political indiscretions.
Today's JW's have indeed a heritage of integrity keeping, but this integrity is as individual as the WT seems to imply whenever they could be sued for an individual JW's actions.
If those still under WT control would understand the little regard the WT has for them, with their fake gushing of "love towards the friends," and how they've been denied the personal mediation of Christ on their spiritual behalf, the vast majority of JW's would, stop donating and try to make a quick exit from this disdainful cult.
The WT religion doesn't deserve any credit for the courage and integrity of those Ernste Bibelforscher, or Earnest Bible Students who suffered in nazi Germany.
the awake oct 2015 is now up on jw org.. one article talks about young adults returning to their parents home and tries to give them some advice.. one of the highlighted comments are these magical words.
<<remember, more important than what you do is becoming proficient at what you do.>>.
i don't see how it's more important to become more proficient in that window washing job than working towards a more interesting and better paying job.
It makes perfect cult sense. If you don't like where you work you're probably less likely to seek association there, instead you'll turn to the "friends" at the congregation.
Besides, you've got to make the job more palatable for those Bethelites who get assigned menial jobs in cleaning rooms, laundry, pest and vermin control and scrubbing toilets--somebody's got to do it, right?
I don't think any of the GB 2.0 and their wives, nor their oh-so-very-important Helpers, are going to "help" out in any of the cleaning departments any time soon.
how great to see amiii stating @ tv.jw.org that the watchtower society was the first institution addressing child abuse in a time others were naive about this typical behavior of gay's.
the 1982 awake magazine is such a spectacular example about adressing the problem that they decided to erase it from their digital archives.
will amiii tell the judge that "watchtower" has not any control about him?

Wait a minute Gorbatchov, I don't believe that it's homosexuals who are only perpetrating the sexual child abuse in today's society, so you may want to reconsider that statement.
Sexual predators of the young can be either of heterosexual or homosexual preferences. The heinous crime is that they prey on the young and innocent to satisfy their sexual cravings.

Who is he and how does he get to represent the WT's online presence on YouTube, I wonder?
