  Armageddon Is Right Around the Corner!

  if one were to poll present day jehovah's witnesses, what kind of a timeframe do you think they have for armageddon?.

  do they still discourage higher education despite the fact they've been wrong so many times?.

  one more thing about armageddon...how do they think it's going to start?

  my wife is filipina and i ge the impression they are a bit different from other jws in regard to shunning family - my sister-in-law is df'd but the family does not exclude her but she does sort of oerpate ont eh margtin of the family.

  i wonder wheterh there are any differences with filipino jws.

  i get the feeling that less of them fade or leave voluntarily once baptized but weopudl like some confirmation of whether that is correct..

  i'm quite new to this site, & have realised some members have a union jack symbol under their avatar.

  i don't.. could we have a "show of hands" from any uk members?

  i've already found several by reading older posts..

  Why do the GB need a new Bethel compound if the end is so close? Here is the "official" answer

  by sir82 in

  as most of us know, the society is spending 10's of millions of dollars on a giant, state of the art, secluded bunker country club headquarters in very remote, isolated warwick ny.. the question that "some" have is, why?

  if armageddon is coming "very soon", why go to all that time & effort & expense?

  why have thousands of jws dedicating their time to this massive effort instead of the "lifesaving ministry"?.

  didnt the owl and the pussycat sail away on a pea green sea in a sailboat made of chocolate-? or some such fairy tale?

  honestly----really--any wavering jw's reading this stuff---surely its time for a reality check---time to leave the cult folks----before the cult leaves you.

  David Splane does not bow head when giving a prayer!

  by VM44 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  this is a report in spanish conerning david splane giving a prayer at a convention.. perhaps someone can translate it better, but google translate gave the following:.

  during prayer, should no longer be necessary to bow his head in a mass meeting, as was splane throughout the prayer, head up, down, left and right looking at all tiers, not hiding in the least.. so splane is looking all around at the sudience while giving a prayer?!!!.

  can someone confirm that is what the spanish text says?.

  reading julia's comment about how she and her husband have become the epitome of evil (lol) moved me to post.

  i have several family members and close friends that have faded or simply walked away.

  each of them has chosen a different course.
