What is the most damning watchtower publication?

by zound in

i want to purchase a couple of vintage watchtower publications to help in my helping jw's break free.

some of the older ones are expensive or hard to come by - i know you can buy them on cd's but i'd like to own one or two of the "classics of propaganda"- some of the ones that speak for themselves as to the ridiculousness of this religion.. of course any magazine i pick up today speaks to me of the ridiculousness, but you need something much more hardcore for the jw's.. any recommendations?.

"children" has some pretty good quotes in it..

I tell everyone who will listen to read millions now living will never die and while they read it remember that if you didn't agree 100% with Rutherford s teachings you were DF'd just like what happened in the faith in action DVD. The DVD nicely documented how JR was berated for hours then he threw them out.

Governing Body - Consulting Demons?

by The Searcher in

as a serving witness, i am not foolhardy enough to ask elders this question, because their 'praetorian guard' instincts would kick in, and i would be treated as an anti-christ.. w07 1/1 p. 28 par.

11- "it seems that resurrected ones of the 24-elders group may be involved in the communicating of divine truths today.

my question is simply based on this 'inspired' 'spiritual food at the proper time'; please put a little meat on the bone and tell all 7+ million of us, how do receive these "divine truths" from spirit creatures whom you cannot identify?.

you would think at the very least dead "annointed" ones would be granted the ability to communicate with living ones serving on the governing body so that once a doctrine was established it wouldn't be changed, altered, or invalidated in any way. Would bring much credibility to the clowns or rather Governing Buffoons now seated on thrones in brooklyn

i'm surprised there wasn't a thread on this already... so i' guess i'll start it.. new series on discovery channel .. " hidden in america" first episode.

" doomsday cults" ... it aired about a month ago, did anyone else see it?

Lied2NoMore

yup i watched it, if I remember, it came on right after a mormon documentary. I may have it still recorded on my DVR. good stuff and ALL cults work by the same playbook.

WT follows cult playbook to a "T"

i believe that this site, jwn, serves many purposes.

.

some are here almost, out of need.. others are here because they want to know the latest in watchtower world.. still others come here for the entertainment.. why do you frequent this place?

I stumbled on this site the first time when I needed to verify which public talk I was supposed to give a couple years ago.

I googled the talk title and it found a talk title thread jgnat had done compiling talk outline numbers and titles.

Of course, I had to snoop a little, then I lurked for a while, then I signed up.....

Thinking for myself began, and continues on................

Should have spent more time studying about David.

He was a musician and designed and made musical instruments.

All that and he was an adultering murdering king to boot!

What is the qualification for emblem partakers ?

by franticfran in

jw
friends

i have just had a sister for lunch and we discussed the increase in emblem partakers last year to an astonishing 12,600. she said "anyone" could just walk in off the street and take the emblems and thats probaly why the numbers have increased so dramatically,but surely elders are only obliged to report the number of" baptised" brothers or sisters taking the emblems?.

They ambushed me!

by Anony Mous in

when i was bringing my daughter back to her mother's house two elders stopped me and told me they wanted to talk.

i said i didn't have time, they asked me if i wanted to stop by the kh on saturday to talk to them.

i said i didn't have time.

Put them on the defensive right from the start if they say they "heard something" and ask who said it, because spreading around false information could lead to defamation lawsuits for the WT and them personally. They will never reveal a source of information for this reason so tell them if they insist on taking here say as gospel truth, then there would be no reason to meet with you to confirm it. Then walk away and say, "see you in court"..
