Dateline Fitzwater Letter-"Two Witnesses
by silentlambs in
1. jw
2. friends
the following is a letter written from the service department regarding the molestation of the step daughter of daniel fitzwater.

in the dateline program daniel fitzwater was shown by correspondence from a circuit overseer to have molested 17 jw children who unfortunately did not have two eye-witnesses for each incident.

thus brother fitzwater went to prision and remains in prision as a jw in "good standing".

I need help/info on other religions vs the WTS
by Leander in
1. jw
2. friends
over the past week since i've announced that i was stepping down i have had a few conversations with my family, and against my better judgement i mentioned that i was having doubts.

invariably almost every discussion about the jw religion eventually boils down to the argument that only witnesses are doing this or that.

unfortunately this is a weak part of my debate, i have only been associated with the jw religion so i have very little information on what other religions beleive and practice.

"THE GLORIOUS ONES" WT TWISTING THE ...
by ARoarer in
1. jw
2. friends
i have been reading from other bibles and comparing them to the wt.

translation in the nwt and found it interesting that the information that they use in the reasoning book regarding apostates is taken from jude and the experience of korah with moses.

it seems they use this scripture to identify elders as the "glorious ones", and anyone speaking against the society is compared to korah speaking against moses.

Revelation
by George in
1. watchtower
2. bible
"we will not, however, incur the risk of pronouncing positively as to the name of antichrist; for if it were necessary that his name should be distinctly revealed in this present time, it would have been announced .

by him who beheld the apocalyptic vision.

for that was seen no very long time since, but almost in our day, towards the end of domitians's reign.
