  Rapists and pedophiles are usually YOUR OWN FRIENDS AND FAMILY!!

  There are rapists and pedophiles in your government, police force, hospitals, day cares, schools, grocery stores, restaurants , corporate america, all religions, etc. There is no place on earth that is rapist and pedophile free. The world has failed to identify, catch and punish all the sickos in the world and religion is in the same situation. It also does not have an answer to these vile and disgusting people who hide among us. Clearly all of mankind has failed to protect our children and women. I think all crimes against a child should have their punishment tripled or quadrupled and the law should force all religions and people with any knowledge of a rape or molestation to the police or face prison. We also need mandatory sentences in rape convictions as judges can not be trusted to provide justice. They let rapists walk free or with a slap on the wrist its sickening. My 2 cents

  Regarding the united nations... America and the united nations are spoken abusively all the time by good old Americans and every nation on earth. Then they cry for help and use the laws to benefit themselves. In this matter I see the jws as just like everybody else no more evil then anybody else. My 2 cents...

  Millionaire Elder JW umm...wtf?!

  so i know one should remove his own stick from his own eye before ones self judges another, but i noticed something.

  it seems that the wealthy witnesses are the elders, the circuit overseers, the governing body... are they really different from any other 'worldly' religions or even organizations?

  i mean look at the jewels the friggen pope wears.

  I meant i commend them for making their own money instead of preying on their flock by convincing them to donate money even if they cant afford it, then using that money to amass wealth and buy private jets and mansions. It sickens me...

  I know of two elders who refused to join the military and became convicts which prevented them from getting hired so they started their own business. After many years of hard work they now have a successful business and are millionaires. They still have the same modest house and car and you would never know they have money except for some loose lipped close friends.

  There are a number of witnesses at the local hall. Dental assistant, some sort of medical salesman 300k a year, 3 engineers i know one is making 150k, 1 well off retired business executive of some electric company, medical assistant, mailman from new york-very well paid here, carpenter owns company works only for rich- very well paid, a few fireman,postman, 2 owners of a paint & body shops, a few more business owners, a few other well paid people. A bunch of regular people with average jobs. I am actually not in a wealthy area the ghetto is only a couple miles away from the middle class area i live in.

  The pope is treated like a god and called holy father and people bow to him. He certainly is in a league of his own when it comes to riches and spending money. Man looking at many preachers living on millions of dollars while the people donating money certainly hope for a miracle to pay their bills since they gave the money to the preacher instead.

  I certainly commend the witnesses for living on their own money instead of the poor paying for their mansions and extravagant lifestyles. It is interesting that witnesses are mocked for supporting the watchtower and then again for not supporting the watchtower with every dime they have.

  Many witnesses are doing some college to get a better job.

  The End of False Religion Is Near! HAHAHA

  by tootired2care in

  memories!

  i remember a few years back being involved in the campaign work, and having the distinctly awkward experience of having to hand the householders this piece of sh1t tract "the end of false religion is near!"..

  i recall the discomfort i had trying to get into a conversation about this nonsense.

  I know some witnesses and Its obvious they don't want people to die..... nor do they feel joy at the thought of someone dying .. to say so is preposterous. .

  Whether right or wrong to spend your own precious free time out in the summer heat offering literature and more of your precious free time for a home bible study add on top of your time the amount of money it costs to pay for gas, food and drinks for the family, dry cleaning etc. My friend says all witnesses are desperately trying to find a bible study or just someone to listen to them. I would think they dont go door to door in this crazy heat spending their own money on the preaching work because they hate people and want to see them die. just my 2 cents.

  Oh I am really sorry hildebrando I did not realize my post accidentally implied your site might be unsafe. I have been there many times and never had an issue. When i first logged in the site it came up looking strange and there was a security issue but I think it was just cause the site didn't load properly or some other reason. The site is safe and I didnt need google to tell me so :) Sorry for the bad wording thx dude

  Without a receipt showing the watchtower paid 9000 for the flight this is all speculation.

  Honestly, Could the tickets have been purchased by a friend or family? yes....

  A copy of the receipt would have proven who paid for the tickets. I prefer to see proof over statements making assumptions about where the money came from.

  whatever arena or stadium is close is usually chosen if an agreement on price and availability can be reached ( reserved well in advance). This means that a sports arena normally used for 14,000 or more may be rented to jws. They will use the the arena to host any number of conventions often renting the building for several weekends in a row per area. One weekend will have many the next less . There are many many conventions in each state weekend after weekend.
