  What is the Education Level of the Governing Body members?

  by Wild_Thing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i would love to compile a list of the education obtained by the governing body members both past and present.

  can anyone provide any information to get me started?.

  it still amazes me they think they can translate ancient languages with an 8th grade education.

  I think I remember hearing (reading) that Freddie Franz had an old Jewish scholar/friend that had clearance to come and go at headquarters and that this man helped him translate.

  Do I have that right?

  Anyone?

  i was really puzzled when i opened this edition of the wt magazine at the above “study”.

  what on earth has this picture at the top of page 13 got to do with christian watchfulness?

  i wasn’t making a connection at all.

  So if the point of that picture is sit down and shut up for the music, what about the 3 yahoos talking and on the phone?

  And the two gabby sisters...they are sitting but talking (gasp) the effrontery of it all!

  See the new Dutch assembly hall

  by Anders Andersen in

  ...it looks like a generic, easy to sell barn hall.. https://youtu.be/eqwrfhbbqwy.

  nothing like the old hall it's built next to.. the small room in the video is the indoctrination education center.. the building is completed one year ahead of schedule.

  my guess: it's either much simpler than they originally planned, and/or they had more volunteers because nothing else is being built.. video is dutch, but nothing interesting is said anyway..

  Yes, I saw the Org sign and thought the same as you did yodastar.

  That is one thing that seems to transcend all other things with them these days.

  Thank you for posting this video Anders. I like being able to see what is going on all over the world.

  I was surprised the floors in the auditorium were not carpeted. The chairs also seemed more on the lower end side as to price.

  I dont know if that is the style of public building there or if this is new?

  You mentioned it is nothing like the old one so I am thinking maybe this is the new look of things to come.

  The Real Reason why the WT predicted Armageddon in 1975

  by OrphanCrow in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am of the opinion that the wt doctrine is influenced more by external factors that it is by internal ones.

  one of the doctrines that has puzzled me for some time is the armageddon prediction of 1975. why would the wts make this prediction?

  what was their real purpose?.

  OrphanCrow7 minutes agoMad Freddy?
  Nope, It isn't one of my pet subjects. I just stumbled upon this while looking for something else.
  My pet subject is blood. As high as the horses' bridles

  I think freddo is referring to Fred Franz obsession with the date of 1975.

  I like the way the man doing the baptizing didnt stress out about the kids impetuousness.

  Unlike the stern JWs who measure to make sure a toe didnt stick out or it doesnt count and they re- dunk you.
