how many people remember the old laurel race track where we had conventions back in the 60's?

I don't know if Ray Franz ever came to Great Britain but I cannot remember ever hearing him.

Any idea what year this might be? Has to be prior to 1980 when he resigned.

Is WT Using ATTENDANTS At The Conventions To Be: "TOY COPS"

by HiddlesWife in

i have heard from a few ppimis and several pimos that the attendants who are stationedly-assigned to the front entrances of the borgvenues (cahs and other arenas) have been checking to see if any persons (members and non-member visitors) have badges.

on the other hand, if these persons don't have one, this is what i was told that these dubs do this: corral around the non-badge-wearing individual and interrogate he/she/them plus questioning them, "why are you here?!".

also, even if that person or persons have an invitation plus showed it to these dubs, these toy cops still do that procedure.

St George of England

We had this announcement prior to our RC:-

Safety and security are a very high priority for both us and the Amex venue. For this reason it is absolutely essential that delegates wear convention Lapel Badges at all times, including volunteers for pre-or post-convention activities on site; these should be viewed in the same way as an entry ticket. As in previous years, bag checks will be undertaken on entry to the venue. Please try to limit the size and number of bags as far as possible. Please note that flasks and metal cutlery of any sort are not permitted. Drinks in plastic bottles of 500 ml or less are allowable.

Lots of empty seats at Jehovah's Witnesses Convention in Tucson, Arizona

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

https://youtu.be/5926nhzyz90.

the jehovah's witness 2023 convention theme is, ''exercise patience''...by looking at the attendance at this tucson, arizona convention, it should be changed to, '' jehovah's witnesses...running out of patience''.

.

I watched the streamed US Convention a few weeks ago. Not sure where it was recorded but there were 1,500 - 1,600 depending on the day. Only 4 baptised.

It was torture, over 70 videos. They had missed off the two videos connected with the Saturday afternoon talk which showed a young sister refusing to pick up the phone when her mother called. DF'ed or DA'ed.

KGB infiltrated the Borg

by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

we from the old year books that some kgb undercover agents became elders in high up positions.. i wonder if this is going on today?

not just in russia but other congregations around the world?.

when you think how long it takes to become an elder and all the talks and maybe judicial committees they were involved with.. anyway i’m just throwing it out there if someone wanted to pay me i am a current elder who is pima about intelligence or chance involved with the origin of the universe.. .

St George of England

I think the country was Romania where the split took place. Eventually the problem was resolved and it was Gerit Losch that gave the emotional talk about it.

Samson kills 1,000 Philistine military men with a donkey's jawbone...I think not!

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

the watchtower—study edition | september 2023. study article 37. rely on jehovah, as samson did.

4 consider an example of samson’s trust in jehovah and of the support that god supplied.

on one occasion, a philistine military force had come to capture samson at lehi, evidently in judah.

St George of England

@Beth Sarim - That is true but I don't think nischansr is at that stage yet, do you? I think he is a PIMI.

R & F JW's ARE agents of the org....

by BoogerMan in

....despite the cult's denials.. w51 6/15 p. 378 par.

23 the spirit, the organization, and the word - his theocratic organization recognizes your authority from his word, the bible.

so it uses you as one of its representatives in the field and it co-operates with you, supplies your needs, and renders you assistance..

St George of England

Back in the 1960's or even later, we had "Identification Cards" that we always carried to identify us as representatives of the WT.

We were then told to destroy them, I cannot remember the year though. Maybe someone will be able to remember. Probably too much of a liability for the Society.

@nischansr - I think you may be on the wrong site here. This is the sort of "apostate site" that the WT Society is continually warning you against.

There is also the crazy story in Judges 15 where Samson caught 300 foxes, tied them in pairs by their tails and then set light to them. They then ran into the Philistines crops and burned them. Aside from being a barbaric act it is simply impossible, unless of course God did it. In which case he is a barbarian.

Talking snakes, talking donkeys, how can I have ever believed any of this twaddle?

The currently missing 'Titan' submarine. What do you think?

by SydBarrett in

jw
friends

any opinions are just speculation, but my guess, being morbid, is that there was not a hull breach and implosion (although that would have been the most merciful fate for them), but instead the amateur level of building this thing meant that it lost power and communication and got itself tangled in the titanic's wreckage or is sitting on the actual seabed with no way to release ballast to resurface.

terrifying.

what's your gut feeling?
