  OldHippie,

  I'm glad you liked Mom and Uncle B's book. I'll pass that on to Uncle Bruce. Do you visit his history blog?

  The Watchtower let the book on Peter's letters go out of print, and even though it is in the library, at the time they did not use it much beyond the publication date. Reason? I have no clue.

  Articles that were verifiably his were the lengthy article on chronology, article on overseers. They are omited or rewriten for Insight. If you say I'm wrong, prove it.

  Removing his videos follows a pattern. When the Aid book was reissued as Insight, all of Franz's articles were omitted. Some books were quietly dropped as quickly as possible. Someone in disfavor would not continue to be used as an authoritative voice, no matter what the degree of 'offense' was.

  mass shooting at a kingdom hall in hamburg, germany this evening.

  at least 6 or 7 killed, dozens injured.

  single shooter on the run, police doesn't rule out more shooters.

  transferring blame to the Watchtower is wrong. Nothing it does warrants violence. Saying that it does or excussing it therby is morally repugnant. Excuse my poor typing. I'm on my phone and cant see my words as i type.

  I haven't read the insane man's book. I'm ambivalent. That aside, I think some of the speculations turned solid opinions are really out of place. He murdered people. No one forced him to do that.

  As far as the anonymous letter goes, the police wouldn't have acted if the letter was signed because their interview with him produced no verifiable result.

  "Mankind's Search for God" book

  by My Name is of No Consequence in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this book was published around 1990, but was never studied (to my knowledge).

  does anyone know the reason why?.

  As I understand it, the book was designed as a study book for newly interested. There are Kingdom Ministry articles advocating starting studies in the book. I do not know how successful that was.

  It wasn't meant to be an academic study. As far as I can tell, no Watchtower product was meant to appeal to academics or meet that kind of standard. They're all meant to gain adherents and to project the Watchtower's theology. So It's no surprise that someone expecting an academic product is disappointed.

  Micah 6:8

  by enoughisenough in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i saw this in a video sometime back ( don't remember now ) but it caught my attention...micah 6:8 was changed in the "silver sword" ...they changed the words in that scripture from " to love kindness" or in some versions to "love mercy" or "love grace" or "love goodness" to nwt silver : " to cherish loyalty".

  sometime afterward there would be articles about being loyal to the organization.

  some of you may recall this.

  It’s quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbor,
  be compassionate and loyal in your love,
  And don’t take yourself too seriously—
  take God seriously.

  Rückfragen in Verbindung mit der Kündigung von Anthony Morris III

  by + in

  1. watchtower

  entschuldigt bitte, wenn ich in deutsch schreibe.. würde ich es „übersetzten“ käme es zu missverständnissen.. ich hätte ein paar rückfragen in verbindung mit der kündigung von anthony morris iii..

  ) anthony morris iii protzte, vor der kamera, in seiner zeit als mitglied des inneren ordens der wachtturmgesellschaft, immer mit seiner rolex (die seine frau, aus dem spendenshop von einem nachlass eines verstorbenen bruders abgriff) und den goldenen protzringen (die er ebenfalls, als erster, in der spendenshop hierarchie, geierte).. wenn er in seinen vorträgen damit prahlte, das seine eltern wohlhabend waren, stimmt das so lange, solange er auf kosten der brüder lebte.

  als er in den kreisdienst wechselte, verkaufte er sein, durch die militärhypothek finanziertes, haus und zog in eine kreisaufseher-wohnung.

  The original post reflects mental health issues. Most of these complaints are made only to find something, anything, about which to complain. Is A. Morris a 'good guy'? I have no clue. Are most of the complaints in the o.p. worth making? nope.

  Does he have a Rolex watch? So do I. I inherited it. I also have an 18K antique watch, also an inheritance. And I do wear them. Does that mean I'm a braggart, demeaning everyone else? I hope not. I'm a poor post graduate student who happens to have a few nice things left to me by my mother.

  Is the original poster envious of Morris' supposed wealth? Seems so. This post is more about envy and hatred than it is about valid complaints.
