  Ray I have nothing but respect for you, but seriously man your commentary on the left as the video is playing is over the top and into the distant realms of speculation. I think it actually provides a good piece of evidence for them to marginalize the anti-watchtower movement.

  I did consider this aspect and you do have a point. Like Cedars though, I tried to be fair about it and point out what I saw, and then let viewers decide for themselves. The videos that I make are primarily made for those that have already awakened to TTATT, and not to some deeply indoctrinated JW.

  I am not out to destroy a hardcore JW's faith- many of these only have the WT scaffholding to keep them from imploding in their personal life. My main goal is to educate and uplift the non-JW population, including the ones that have faded or been DFed. Heaven knows there are many thousands of DFed ones that are still "mentally in" and need help to break free from WT thinking.

  I'm blown away with all the details we have on this. Thanks to Barbara for the info, I hope that you can relate the last "tongue story" when you have time.

  I intend to update the YT video with annotations and/or captions to help fill in more of the info that has emerged on the story.

  @Londo - That would be enormous, enough to dent the faith of at least some of the JW faithful...but most would just say, "imperfect men" and keep on worshiping the GB.

  @ob - Fascinating article. Beth Shan had a secret bomb shelter, wow.

  Anyway, hope this yields some "new light". I found it fascinating and thought that this tape had been lost. (I recorded it in 1990 on VHS)

  This is from the description:

  -----------

  This film footage was recorded sometime in the early to late 1930s. It shows the Beth Sarim mansion and grounds being built, and then later the Watchtower Society president Joseph Rutherford walking around the recently built Beth Sarim.
  
  Some have felt that he is "too happy" in several scenes, where he kisses fruit, twice sticks out his tongue, and appears to be in a very uninhibited frame of mind.
  
  Each can judge for himself. The footage is grainy but is surprisingly well preserved.

  -----------

  Like it on Facebook. Email the link to friends and families. Talk to local press and media. Send letters to ABC, CBS, etc.

  These are how ALL of us can get involved and help bring pressure on the WT to change their disgusting policies that allow this to continue to happen.

  Apostates At War With Jehovah's Delusional Organization Strategy

  by frankiespeakin in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  as the "truth about the truth' (delusional thinking bible interpetations) becomes more wide spread and the rate of jws leaving the clutches of the wt corporation increases a war/battle results, it is true some are just happy to get out with no need to inflict any retaliatorial injury to the corporation that held them hostage through deciet.

  many on the other hand want to get their families out of this cult and a restoration of their good name from the cruel slander of an organization that has made a fortune off of their free labor and now forbids it members to have anything to do with them causing a great loss in former friends and family members.

  is retailiation in order for these offenses?
