  OMG the Watchtower IS toast!

  the waters are drying up!

  a congregation of 110+ publishers will be contributing only $200 a month to the society in the new kingdom hall construction arrangement.

  that's less than $2 a publisher!

  KAIK nailed it.

  I've been saying for the past couple of years.....and this new 'not over 80' elder arrangment only proves it: They want the old timers to die.

  With the old timers goes all the history.....and the broken promises. They will romanticize cheese danishes, ballpark conventions and those 90 hour a month pioneers for the next generation of gullible people.

  It's tragic........I would love to be inside the head of these folks in their 60's and 70's........they have to be going 'huh?'

  How stupid were we??

  by Crazyguy in

  its unbelievable to me that one verse in the bible blows up the entire jw dogma and its amazing to me that with all this bible reading we jw's did we missed it.

  even faders and people who quit for many reasons missed it.

  what verse am i talking about it verse 9 of chapter 5 of revelations.

  I couldn't agree more with The Searcher above. Nailed it. It's been my battle cry for years....

  Field service is an unecessary action.....we should all just be mass murderers......guarantees a resurrection. Of course,..we would count our time and still take coffee breaks.

  What Do Mormons Really Believe? RE: The Nov. 8, 1995 Awake Magazine

  by D_Rolling_Kearney in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i am a member of the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints, and i have written a heavily-documented response to the official magazine of the jehovah's witnesses, awake!, that claims to teach what we believe.

  i saw an article from last year's watchtower about a guy who had barely been mormon for very long, and obviously did not know what we believe, who was given this magazine by jw's to show him "the truth.

  " he claims to have proven to himself that it was true from information on the lds church's website.

  Worry Over Possible "Spying Elders"

  by abbasgreta in

  this seems to be a real worry for 'faders' on a number of threads.

  the responses to ducati's first posting.

  is a good example.

  I will forever be BAFFLED by ANY fear of elders. They have exactly the power you give them......how can a 'fader' be worried about spying elders?

  Most states have anti-stalking laws....simply mention it and they will scatter like cockroaches.

  Gone are the days of spying, sitting out front of homes in cars, etc. They can be arrested!

  Don't answer the phone. If they leave a threatening message; keep it......contact an attorney and have a letter drafted on stationary threatening legal action......CC the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society on the letter.

  Seriously......stop fearing these jokers.........99% of elders can't find where there arse is!!!

  By the way....you would be amazed at what happens when you disfellowship THEM..........shun them!

  How Many Know Any COBE's that are 80 years old or more???

  by LoisLane looking for Superman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i knew one that died not too long ago.

  he was an old presiding overseer of one congo since the early 1960's.. he died in the saddle with his boots on.. he was watchtower overseer and cobe.. he died at 90.. he was beloved by many.. if this new change of getting rid of cobe's happened 10 years ago, when this "honored" one was just 80, i have no idea how he and his family would have taken it.. it certainly would have shaken them and theircongo up.. -----> getting rid of co's at 70.. -----> getting rid of all district overseers.. -----> wt has already let go thousands of bethel workers.. -----> selling off properties and pocketing their profits for themselves.. ----->monthly "donations" from each khall wt/gb owns already.. what a man made up religion.. what a snare and a racket!.

  Hmmmm............does this apply to members of the Governing Body too?

  Oh yeah......of course not.

  Isn't it grand....now, older ones can no longer be part of the 'faithful slave' or be an elder......It just keeps getting better!

  Hey....out of curiousity......how old was Moses when he went to Pharoah again?

  Oh....er, never mind....new light

  Who Will Be The Next Governing Body Member To Defect Like Raymond Franz? I Think Samuel Herd Might Be A Prospect.

  by frankiespeakin in

  2. beliefs

  not really, it could anyone of those guys who shows a sign of humaness/compassion and regret and go on exposing them all to the media worse than ray franz ever could have.

  yes i know this may be wishful thinking/computing on my part but i feel it is a harmless indugence or may be it is just my deep unconscious foretelling a likely scenerio.. and it is good to create a distrust among these guys each one trying to beat the other to jump ship because thier unconscious is giving them fits to get the hell out when the getting is good.

  maybe even report their fellow gbs to the authorities to be granted clemency or something.

  I have some interesting insight on Sam Herd.....and believe me, I agree with you.

  He finds the way elders treat each other to be disgusting.

  He isn't a 'dumb' guy perse...... you just have to wonder if he is going to have that 'moment' that wakes him up......

  If anyone...him...but I think they are all too scared anymore.

  i apologize if this has already been covered, maybe someone can post the link.. what is the real reason for the society forgiving all loans for kingdom halls and just giving the money for new ones?.

  Irony......money given to them as donations, then being used as loans for them to collect interest on.

  Yeah....irony.

  I was "totally" stopped in my tracks by an "atheist" comment.

  by booker-t in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i must admit i can at times be a little "egotistical" when it comes to knowledge and the bible.

  i have studied the bible for so long and have always had a passion for the bible as a jw and as an ex-jw.

  i guess that is all i have left when it comes to religion and as humans we do tend to stroke our egos.

  I'm still waiting for someone to answer my question....it goes well with the original post:

  If everyone that dies before Armageddon get a ressurection, why aren't JW's just out killing people to ensure they get to the Millinial Reign....why bother with field service??
