  Moving Back to Chicago - Don't care

  by LevelThePlayingField in

  my wife was diagnosed with ms about two years ago.

  we have been living in ohio for the last 5 years but were recently assigned to a new congregation because of the dissolving and sale of our congregation/kh.

  my wife's symptoms spiked after being relocated to our new hall back in january.

  John Wyatt has now disabled the comments on this Youtube.
  
  I challenged him yesterday regarding no JWs being involved and he replied
  
  "You are the one doing the deceiving here. Trying to convince others that it's a Watchtower propaganda film. There were no Jehovah's Witnesses involved in the production of this documentary with only one exception. That was the giving of permission to use film footage of the convention in Berlin, and to use the song. "
  
  I replied with a link about Lorenz Reibling being a JW and an Elder, posting a link and stating he could google many references to Reibling. Including one link.http://jwemployees.bravehost.com/NewsReports/2015.html
  
  
  I thought he would respond again claiming they were all lies but he didn't.
  
  It seems that with the recent attention from us ex JWs and comments posted on his Youtube he doesn't want to deal with it and has gone the way of many JWs by disabling comments.

  Lorenz Reibling is credited at the end of the film as sponsoring the film.
  
  Orphan Crow wrote about him a few years ago -

  WOODSTOCK

  it’s starting to filter in, the truth about why the grumpy buzzards wanted to move to warwick.

  lol.

  they are unhappy that their best time in life was moved to bethel and are hoping to relive woodstock in the place it should have been 49 years ago next month.

  I can’t wait till next year, for the 50th year jubilee of Woodstock, and whatever the Gasfilled Balloons conjors up to mark the event.

  
  Maybe they should ask to play their cart song.

  You're very much on the same thought line as Eric Wilson's latest article on Beroean Pickets. He's included short clips from the Watchtower.

  Banners for London Protest

  by Farmer Jim1 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hi folks, i’m attending the london protest at the excel convention in august and am making some banners.

  i’m aiming for short but memorable sentences that will stick in jws minds and also make them laugh a little at their own organisation.. my best so far is ‘this is not a protest, it’s an overlapping protest’.

  has anyone got any ideas for more?.

  Something that really ticked me off about seeing the video of New Head Quarters of J.W.s (Warwick)

  by StoneWall in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i was a jw it was always emphasized that we should trust in jehovah completely.

  jah will protect his people do not trust in man, throw your burdens upon jehovah etc.ok now if that's true wouldn't it mean that if jehovah was going to protect anywhere it should be his world head quarters right?.

  we were told to not trust in ourselves (such as guns,walls for defense and protection) but to leave it in jehovah's hands and he would provide a means for escape etc.so as i'm watching some pro-wt vid's about the facilities in warwick i noticed something they didn't show on them or focus on and only reason i know about it was because of the w5 newscast as well as the vids the protesters shared.they conveniently leave out the parts of them putting walls/fences and gates as well as a "guard shack" at entrance instead of relying on jehovah to protect them.the guard house even has a "no trespassing" sign in the window.

  So much for keeping their lives simple.

  They even have their own fire engine at Warwick.

  Olin Moyle

  by Vincent Law in

  2. scandals

  olin moyle was a attorney for the wtbts during joseph rutherford reign.

  his papers from wtbts are still at princeton in the rare books section and boxed up.

  what is the likely hood that that there was political entanglement and that politics did not keep wtbts at arm's length but from time to time has used the wtbts for it's purposes.
