  The Mysterious Missing Islam.....

  by snare&racket in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i've discussed this before but not in this context alone.. i remember being about 14 years old, 1994 and starting a study in the uk with a charming muslim from the congo.

  he was a very pleasant middle aged guy with a big family, two wives, always the most hospitable.

  at the time the watchtower had a book on many religions, a thick red book called 'mankind's search for god' so i would read and discuss the section on islam with him.. interestingly, but not surprising, many details they had were wrong about islam and he would explain how and correct me.

  Islam has been wanting to take over the world since its implementation. It's working towards that by terror and breeding. Without doubt the biggest problem mankind will face in future years.

  The WT Society has little to say about them. Imagine writing and illustrating magazines in the style that J F Rutherford did but aimed at Muslims, not Catholics. Imagine a letter writing campaign to some Islamic leader. That would be very dangerous. As far as Islam is concerned JW's want to keep a low profile. Protect the $$$$.

  I still remember OOMPAH as I'm sure many here do also, even though I never knew him.

  I once heard that there was a plan to move from London to Milton Keynes, this was also about 20+ years ago. Negotiations were at a quite advanced state when Brooklyn pulled the plug.

  When work stopped on Chelmsford for a time, a few years ago now, the same brother that told me about MK said that if Chelmsford wasn't allowed to go forward there would be a revolt at London Bethel and Brooklyn would have to let the project continue, even if they sold it some years down the line. He was right as it turned out and I for one would not be surprised if they cash in on it in the future.

  A brother I know has been sent home as have many others apparently. Chelmsford is in lock down. This guy gave up his business to go and work there full time so he is back living with a relative. I suppose they don't want the expense of feeding idle workers.

  Past Watchtower Society Comments On Vaccines

  by BluesBrother in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  today there is a lot of hope placed in a vaccines to immunise against covid 19 , and relief that they are soon to be available.

  that will be shared by the eight million or so jws in this world.

  they should be thankful that the wts has moved away from its teaching ,that lasted for decades , proclaiming that vaccination was wrong, and a tool of satan.

  My parents became JW's in the 1940's when I was born. They followed the no vaccination route for me until the mid 1950's when there was a lot of polio around and I was vaccinated then apparently at school along with all the other kids.

  My parents likewise never used aluminium pans and when we received a set for a wedding present we were told by my father never to use them!

  Jehovah`s witnesses not the only religion GOD is using now ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when confronted with angus stewart’s blunt question “do you see yourselves as jehovah god’s spokespeople on earth?” the answer that came from jackson’s lips was astounding.. “that i think would seem to be quite presumptuous to say that we are the only spokesperson that god is using.

  the scriptures clearly show that someone can act in harmony with god’s spirit in giving comfort and help in the congregations, but if i could just clarify a little, going back to matthew 24, clearly, jesus said that in the last days ‐ and jehovah’s witnesses believe these are the last days ‐ there would be a slave, a group of persons who would have responsibility to care for the spiritual food.

  so inthat respect, we view ourselves as trying to fulfill that role.”.

  I think he was just giving the answer that would give himself and the GB the least problems. What he really believes, like the truth, is of no concern to these guys. Theocratic warfare as they say. Or in English, blatant liars!

  A Salute to Petra/Atlantis

  by Slidin Fast in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  whilst i have never quite understood whether petra and atlantis are one or multiple entities i recognise the value of their work and web of contacts.

  i think it is fair to say that no-one has consistently contributed more solid gold intelligence to this site.

  no one has reliably passed on more bomb shells and solid news as well as day to day minutiae.

  I think the only CO & wife that I really liked were John & Jean Flack. Many of the older ones here in the UK will probably remember them. They stayed with us once about 40 years ago. They were a young couple, probably about 10 years older than my wife and I so they are now well into their 80's.

  As soon as the meeting finished they were always keen to get home and change into their jeans and get in front of the TV. I could smell the Chanel No. 5 drifting around the house for a week after they left!
