Hello Hawkaw and all the others,

thanks for the constant updating of the

informations together with the supporting documentation

and the precious comments.

I'have already seen the Guardian article from Steve Bates,

excellent piece of information. It has been translated

already in some European languages.

I'm also waiting for these DPI informations and the

- archive - for this subjects will be even more

complete. I do agree that attention should be paid

to use the correct - terminology - to avoid loopholes

in the defense of ...WRONGDOING!

The repercussion here in Western Europe are great and

many seem to be surprised, shocked, ...some don't seems

to believe until you show them the all "SET " of the

documentation, including the web's links.

Hawk, can I suggest that all comments and additional

information, documentation on this subject, even posted

somewhere alse, should be posted HERE TOO, with the aim

af having a complete STORY and PICTURE of this... in a sort

of chronological order. It would be much easier for all those

who couldn't follow it from the beginning i.e. the thread

" United Nations, NGO's and the WTBS".

Thanks to you and all the others for the efforts, the time

and ...money spent in followiung thoroughly this special

subjects...HIDDEN for so long to the JW's " worldwide

brotherhood"!!!

Greetings, J.C.MacHislopp

P.S. Eagerly waiting for those DPI documents!

Last point - the WTBS was still on the UN
list on the 15.10.2001!

Check out UnitedNationsNews.com!

by comment in

http://www.unitednationsnews.com .

this is really worthwhile!.

it's dedicated to news stories about the united nations from wire services and newspapers around the world.

MacHislopp

Hello Comment,

excellent "tip" . I've already found

the article about "JW's and the preaching activities..;"

I'm sure it would help many if you posted this information

in the main thread : United Nations, NGO's and the WTBS "

just to keep all the same kind of informations together?

Btw having such items " taken directly " from the web pages

of the United Nations is really a great PUBLICITY!!!

Thanks again, greetings, J.C.MacHislopp

2nd and 3rd responses to my UN Letters

by Ranchette in

the second response came from a couple that were good friends in my congregation.. the response was simply my unopened letter returned to me.

remember im not df or dad so someone must have warned them not to open any thing from me.. now for the 3rd and more dramatic response!

it comes from an old time family friend on my husbands side.. i tell you, i still see the bridge burning on this one!.

MacHislopp

Hello Ranchette,

excellent post, very nice to

to share with us. Personally I'm convinced that

certain ones "...will never accept " what we call

- convincing evidences of a mistake, or wrong action

or similar -. They are closed to any kind of message

...for the moment. And beeing the mind such a misterious

world, one can only hope the the "LIGHT of TRUTH " coming

from Jesus Christ will shine through their " eyes " and

their " hearts "!!!

Take couage, greetings, J.C.MacHislopp

CNN mentions Jehovah's Witnesses Today

by ARoarer in

jw
friends

i have been watching the news on cnn and happened to notice the news flashing across the bottom mentioning the state of ohio banning door to door work and jehovah's witnesses!

has anyone seen this?

MacHislopp

Hello ARoarer,

thanks for the information.

Similar things are happening in Europe. In

some places the JW's will have to apply for permits

and possibly ...will ahev to wear ID badges!!

After all, ...security reasons are very much in

the front, these days!

A New Breed Of JW Emerging?

by Englishman in

jw
friends

is there a new breed of jw emerging, i wonder?.

i know that there are lots of real brainwashed dubs around who see demons behind every car boot sale item and who scuttle off to the elders with every bit of tittle-tattle imaginable, but, i think that there is a new type of dub who quietly does just as he / she pleases.. this is what i think: many of the long-serving jw's who have seen the 1975 failure and the 1914 generation change are now approaching old age with something of a jaundiced eye, and are choosing to do their own thing in their remaining years.

in conversations i am picking up it seems that the elders are being regarded somewhat derisively by many jw's.

MacHislopp

Hello Englishman,

excellent thought and well reasoned

points. I've also noticed many " differents " things that

now ...are allowed, ...pemitted or if you like .. not being

the subject of " negative comments " or worst demanding speedy

action by the ...elders. It is a good thread worthy of our

time and debate. I'll come back with more specific ex.

Jehovah's Witnesses are Very Very Intoler...

by D wiltshire in

jw
friends

jehovahs witnesses are very very intolerant!!!.

jehovahs witnesses are very intolerant, i say this because of my personal experience.. for an example, they are very intolerant of anybody saying they are not gods channel, or that they have hypocritical teachings that are false.

they will disfellowship you if you dont recant!.

MacHislopp

Hello D.Wiltshire,

great point, great logic

and above all VERY TRUE!!!

Thanks, and greetings J.C.MacHislopp

Divide And Conquer /with UN Issue & others

by Ranchette in

as this un issue has unfolded we have been working very hard to expose the hypocrisy and deceit of the society to our friends and family and also the public.. we continue to be shocked and amazed at the crazy stunts the wtbs pulls.. when i heard that dutch bethel had something to say about this i started thinking about the uninted we stand, divided we fall concept.. i am wondering if we could put more effort into getting this important information to all wt branches all over the world.. as these issues crop up it would be great if we could publicize all of the branches, their addresses, phone#, fax #, e-mails etc.. i noticed that even within brooklyn they dont always know what is going on.. i was thinking that if i were in one of the other branches around the world i would be enraged that brooklyn got us into this mess and brought reproach on jahs name they are also screwing up with the child abuse issue and many others.. is it possible to cause these other branches to question and turn on brooklyn?.

any thoughts on this out there?.

ranchette

MacHislopp

Hello Ranchette and others,

great suggestions.

Personally I would wait until " THE LETTER " is

printed in many USA and Europeans ' newspapers.

Then we could do ...more in those lines !

What exactly is an elder?

by kevin221 in

jw
friends

sorry if this is a dumb question but i'd like to know.

are they like on the same level of say a priest, or more like a deacon.

jon's father is an elder and he's the biggest wack job i've ever seen so i can't see how they could have much authority in any church that was worth being a member of.. just wondering,.

MacHislopp

Hello everyone,

quite an interesting question.

With great respect for other opinions and viewpoint,

I do personally agree with Amazing's statement:

"1) The Bible shows that Elders are those who have attained spiritual maturity in Christian living, and serve newer
Christians in helping them build faith, and walk with Christ.

2) Anyone, man or women can be such an 'elder' as an act of service, the same as anyone can act as a servant (deacon) to care for the physical and spiritual needs of others.

3) Unfortunately, many religions, especially the highly organized authoritarian type, confuse 'service' with 'office or position' and tend to set up some heirarchy or organizational levels of authority.""

Excellent comments and very true...for the WTBS' organisation.
