"Maybe, they are just trying to ferret out the "picky" Witnesses- the ones who notice this contradiction and complain to Bethel will be , watched, to put it mildly"
I posited a similar idea not too long ago regarding (IMHO) obvious false information coming from the WT, which seems to be ramping up more and more recently (i.e. CTR taught that only a few would go to heaven, the WT has been published by "Jehovah's Witnesses" since 1879 when there was no such thing as a "JW" prior to 1931). Are they really that lazy and sloppy or are they just testing the waters - fishing for reactions from the fence-sitters/faders as a contrived loyalty test?
Thoughts?

The ironic thing is the article is titled "Education for Entering Paradise".
WHOOPS!
It's like telling someone all they need is an Associate's degree when in fact they require a... wait for it...

some time back when i was an elder and expressed my concerns about the blood doctrine to another elder (in confidence) the news got back to the whole body of elders and the co who i will just call (bro.

smith) .

after speaking to me for some time and determining that i did not believe in the wt blood doctrine.

You know, I can't think of a religion which claims exclusive support and backing from the only true God that puts more responsibility on the adherent.
Yeah, we have the ultimate power of the Almighty behind us, and nobody else does, but in any given circumstance, it is always YOU who must make the effort to improve things or get things done. YOU are spiritually weak. YOU are responsible for your lack of faith. YOU need to study more. YOU need to go to the meetings. YOU need to fix your problems. YOU need to get the preaching work done.
It's almost as if (shudder) Jehovah is incapable of doing anything at all.

"Twin towers with plane" meme has shown up in many other places... along with the destroyed Statue of Liberty image... wonder if it's part of the whole "trend towards global consciousness" thing...

Lars,
I must confess that a LITTLE bit of what you initially said actually made some sense. It's my understanding that Russell was financed by the Rothschilds.
Here's what I don't get though:
I think we're all agreed that Adolf Hitler is about as close to Satan incarnate as can be had (even if you don't believe in Satan as an entity per se).
We all know the Nazis were deeply into the occult.
So if what you're saying about the Jews'/WT connection to "Satanism" is true, then isn't it a case of "Satan divided against himself"?
And, of course, Churchill and FDR were famous Freemasons.
Where does the lie end and the truth begin? They're ALL connected to esoteric organizations, one way or another.
Who is my enemy? Who is my friend? Can I trust ANYONE anymore?
I wish I had easy answers to all of this.
Unfortunately, easy answers are hard to come by nowadays...

Oooookaaaaayyyyy...
Um, Lars - in case you missed my point, it was this:
WTF is God's Plan of the Ages doing in a video by a guy in the Sanctum Regnum - not to mention, it's the image the guy chose as his icon?
Oh, and in case "Sanctum Regnum" doesn't ring any bells, how about "Golden Dawn" and "Alesteir Crowley"?

Right. Ad homs on both sides help no-one. Haven't we learned anything from the WT?
