The Fatal Attraction of "God's Organization"

by Cameron_Don in

i recently watched the 5-part documentary the fatal attraction of adolf hitler on youtube.... http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=fatal+asttraction+of+adolf+hitler&oq=fatal+asttraction+of+adolf+hitler&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_l=youtube.3...9316.17859.0.18511.33.33.0.0.0.0.234.3304.22j10j1.33.0...0.0.idl4vmbwceo.

without even trying i could not help but notice several similarities between the fatal attraction germans had to hitler and the fatal attraction jehovahs witnesses have to their gods organization.. example:: toward the end of the documentary it explained that even when some germans finally began to realize that hitler was not the nice guy they thought he was, they still remained loyal to him because there was no one else to turn to.. who does that remind us of?.

don cameron.

Zone Overseer visit, Anthony Morris, in Canada

by Quarterback in

jw
friends

did any of you attend?.

paladin

I just attended and it took 3 hours in a hot stuffy complex. I was shocked that the cure for depression was to preach full time, etc. If your in a coma, god will understand or along that line.

What's the JW reaction to new 16 page mags????

by diamondiiz in

if you've been to the meeting when the letter was read, what was jw reaction????

just curious if it was just another sign that the end is nearer or did any wake up for a second to realize the corporation is downsizing due to costs..

paladin

My wife said "eh'. The audience was quiet. Maybe they were in state of shock.

The Flood - ? So how did kangaroos get to Australia? How come they are no where else?

by BroMac in

*** w62 1/15 p. 64 questions from readers ***.

questions from readers.

how can we account for animals in isolated lands when the flood is said to have covered all the earth and the only land animals that survived were those in the ark?p.

paladin

I like the idea of the kangaroos doing the back stoke. lol

Special talk

by Gorbatchov in

jw
friends

because gorby has attended the memorial, he and his wife decide that one meeting a week was more then enough.. the rest of the family has attended the meeting this morning, including the special statement about the use of internet for marketing reasons instead of the magazines.. later on the day, we visited the family for a good cup of coffee.

nobody told us about the special statement!

and nobody asked us why we did not attend the special talk this day.. .

paladin

Sorry, 1914 was mentioned during the talk along with all the great earth quakes and other major problems of the 20th century.

I recall nothing said about 1914 or Generations but a lot of talk regarding meeting attendance and setting personal goals again. Also we have to preach more or else.
