  The Non-leaders of the Jehovah’s Witnesses

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  mark jones has provided photos and info on the current faithful and wise servant of jehovah.

  the actual leaders of the jehovah’s witnesses are known as the governing body.. jehovah’s witnesses on here will be quick to try and convince you that they have no leader other than jesus and that the governing body are not leaders… no, no… get this, they’re simply men “who take the lead”… which is the very definition of a leader.. the governing body are 8 mentally ill and/or deluded men running the jehovah’s witness religion from new york.. .

  They also say they are not infallible, but will not tolerate disagreement with their views.

  The pope is thought to be infallible, but anyone can safely openly disagree with him.

  I sometimes think they're just charlatans, like televangelists. All of them live by different rules than they have for the rest of us.

  Penpals

  by Jer8226 in

  my ex-husband is in prison for ..well a while longer and has recently became very interested in the study of jehovah.

  (forgive me if i say anything incorrect- i am not religious in any way but do respect all choices!

  ) he is looking for some penpals to help make the time go by faster and to really learn more about the religion so he can make a difference in his community once he gets out.

  Welcome to the discussion board. I want to warn you, however, that most (or all?) of the posters on this board are former Jehovah's witnesses. We have found the religion is not "the truth," as it claims to be. JW.Org might have links to some sites with current Jehovah's witness, but I'm not sure.

  If you need someone to try to dissuade him from interest in this religion, some here might be willing, but I can't speak for them. Just for starters, however, you should know that the Jehovah's witnesses predicted the end of the world for 1914,1919, 1925, and 1975. But, guess what! The world didn't end.

  Have a great day yourself!

  I have an Irish weather forecast. It goes like this: If you can't see the mountain, it's raining. If you can see the mountain, it's going to rain anyway." (spoken with an Irish accent)

  Congratulations! Freedom is great, isn't it? I have been out since 1979. I am not in touch with any present JW's because I moved far away. I had a pre-JW childhood, so I wasn't so traumatized. My family are not JW's. Believe it or not, both of my parents became JW's after I quit. They are both deceased now, so no JW's are left in my family. When I was a JW, there were no child abuse scandals (as far as I know) or other things that go on now. My big issue was 1975 -- that and an unhappy JW marriage.

  from an interview with ebony magazine:.

  in 1987, he left the jehovah's witnesses.

  there was strong opposition to his "thriller" video on the part of some witnesses.

  Interesting. Poor Mrs. Jackson, having a son at the top of the world and being conflicted about having a relationship with him.

  My mother became a JW late in life -- after she was no longer "able" to go to meetings or out in service. My daughter claims she never believed it, but the JW's visited her often, so that was her motivation. She did not shun me at all. Our relationship was the same as ever. She lamented the fact that I was no longer a JW (when I was, she was against it), but that's the only indication that she was sincere about the nonsense. She was a very social person, so it meant a lot to her to have the dubs visit, which they did quite often. Some of them spent a lot of time with her. They were "wasting" precious time when they could have been preaching!

  In your face, Watchtower!

  in addition to studio space, the planned ramapo-tuxedo complex would total 1.5 million square feet.

  the complex would include offices, 600 housing units in multiple-family buildings, underground parking, a fitness area, and a visitor center for the public.. .

  here is anthony morris in a jw broadcasting february 2022, reading a (fake) letter from a ''concerned brother.

  In the early '70's, shortly before 1975 (the big day was supposed to come), Watchtower was expanding its New York facilities. They purchased the Squibb Building, raising a red flag in the eyes of many. No excuses were offered except that it was "Jehovah's will." There's big money in real estate, apparently even after Armageddon.
