the watchtower and awake have given some warnings in the past concerning materials available via the internet.

apostate and porn sites, violent games, useless and frivolous entertainment, and so on.

for now, they are contended with just giving friendly warnings.

Ground Zero Mosque

do you agree that there should not be a mosque in the area that was wiped out by muslim extremists?

on the view, it was discussed with bill o'reilly and the ladies of the view.

joy behar and whoopie flipped because bill said "muslims" were responsible for the carnage there and it would not be appropriate for a mosque in that area.. what do you think?.

New DVD about WTS history: no generation too
by Gorbatchov in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i watched the new dvd earlier this week and the speaker at the convention did his presentation about the new understanding of the generation bla bla bla and the overlap of the generation bla bla bla and then presented the new dvd.

but also on the new dvd the overlap and even "the generation" is not mentioned at all.. the dvd is missing very much information and gives disinformation.

my family asked in a choir "was russell not married" when we watched the dvd.. i told them that he was divorced (...).

The Organ Transplant Doctrine
by Sharpie in
1. watchtower
2. medical
i read this page http://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/medical.php about old light about organ transplants..anyways so here is the timeline in short after reading that page.. organ transplants acceptable in 1961.

...it does not seem that any scriptural principle or law is involved.

it therefore is something that each individual must decide for himself.

Our Kingdom Ministry 2009 tells sick & infirm NOT to view telephone hook-up as convenient alternative to being personally present at KH!
by LUKEWARM in
1. watchtower
2. bible
i am feeling sick after reading the question box - it's so cold and unfeeling toward those who use the telephone to listen to congregation meetings.. .

the wts desire to control their weakest members - the infirm and chronically ill - by guilting them into "putting forth the effort to be personally present " at the kingdom hall is disgusting.. .

they are heartless bastards.... ________________________________________.
