  Questions on Stephen Bates Article WT attack

  by messenger in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  thought you'd be interested to know that i have just been forwarded a note from the watch tower, belatedly in response to the tiny little story i got in on 17 november about that chicago jw couple accused of beating their daughter to death.

  it is interesting that they shld respond - on headed notepaper, apparently from pennsylvania - nearly a month later about something that really got very little space and i can't help feeling it's not unconnected with the other stuff i was writing at that time.

  this is it, in full:.

  Proxy for the Annual Meeting

  by MoeJoJoJo in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i remembered there was some discussion several months ago concerning the annual meeting when i came across this form attached in an old watchtower, dated september 1, 1935. i thought it might be of some interest to some here.

  notice in the instructions that "each person or company that has contributed $10.00 or more at one time to the work of the society is entitled to one vote for each $10.00 so contributed".. personally i thought it was interesting.

  thanks bitter mango for your help.. .

  Cannot understand without the organisation

  by ozziepost in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  just in case any lurkers here may be in doubt about the criticisms made of the witnesses' idolizing of an organisation, here is a selection of their claims, in their own words:.

  "he [god] does not impart his holy spirit and an understanding and appreciation of his word apart from his visible organisation.

  " (the watchtower, july 1, 1965, page 391).
