quote from that world wide resolution: .
that, in order to prevent the destruction of the nations by their own means in war, the nations further refused the surrender of their sovereignty to god’s messianic kingdom by setting up a society of nations, which, since 1945, has taken the form and the name of the united nations, with international headquarters at new york city.
this international organization stands for world sovereignty by political men.
oncebitten you are all over the place. Are you actually claiming that this is a Watchtower controlled site?

I've been on this forum for over 20 years, many of us have and we know Russell's books are still in print and being sold by Bible Students groups. This has NOTHING to do with Watchtower.
i apologize if this post ends up in the wrong place.
i have been a lurker here for several years.
i thoroughly enjoy this site, have for years, and read something or another on this site many times a week.
Hi SLCF
I'm the cranky old Uncle nobody wants to get stuck with at family gatherings. I disagreed with just about everything you said in your last post but as you're new I'm going to let it go. This time.
Welcome to the forum I guess.

oncebitten, you don't have to convince me about Watchtower's insane pyramidology period, I'm aware of it. All I'm questioning is your claim that Watchtower (via it's IBSA arm) is still selling Russell's publications.
Don't put the onus on me or anyone else to disprove your claim, it's YOUR responsibility to prove it.

So the claim that Watchtower controlled IBSA is selling CT Russell publications is completely bogus then?

IBSA in London still sells the writings of Charles Taze Russel; while the ET currently claims to reject his teachings as apostate
I'd like to see proof for that claim.

I don't understand how this monumental hypocrisy didn't destroy the organization when word got out.
If I pointed out the monumental hypocrisy at the heart of Christianity would it destroy your faith Sea Breeze?
as your family considers its disaster preparedness plan, please ensure that the secretary has up-to-date contact information for you and your emergency contact.
also, we have re- peatedly seen good results when brothers and sisters are prepared with go bags and are ready to obey direction when they face various kinds of disasters.

Mikejw, there is no disaster coming to rural Buckinghamshire that justifies instilling this fear of catastrophe in an old lady.
She's at the point in her life when she just needs to relax, enjoy the grandchildren and great-grandchildren and be taken care of by her husband and family.
Of course she's being manipulated! These insidious tactics are used simply to engender loyalty and dependence on the cult. How can you not see that?

Mikejw: every year they have to replace with new supplies
her group overseer and his assistant will look after her if disastrous events happen
she may be asked to take in other JWs displaced by whatever happened
I honestly can't tell if you're being serious or sarcastic. I find it farcical, tragic and infuriating to think of my old Mum being frightened and manipulated like this.
So much for mainstreaming.

Forgive my ignorance (I've been out for almost 25 years) but is this 'go-bag' preparedness a global thing? Is my 80 year old Mother living in the English shires and shopping at Morrisons once a week really being instructed to do this?

Ugh. Their/they. From one cult to another, some folks never learn.
