This is horrible but expected. I personally know of people at my old hall who took out $10,000 + loans for our build just a few months before this new arrangement. All their money now gone.

The con is completed - comments from the US branch's LDC chief
by sir82 inrecently attended a special assembly day.. guest speaker was thomas chicky, a member of the us branch committee and the head of the us ldc (which has replaced the rbcs).. the last talk of the day is scheduled for an hour.
it was the usual boring mumbo-jumbo.
he appeared to have blasted through his hour-long outline in just about 45 minutes, so he "treated" us to informal comments on recent developments.. he commented on the new wt complex in fishkill ny.. then he dropped the bomb (well, to anyone with ears and at least 2 functioning synapses).. the following is not a word for quote, but presents the gist of his comments:.

by prologos inyou dont have be alive to 2075 to prove that the wt's anointed generation is and will prove to be wrong, it is!

Or maybe Jesus meant the generation he was talking too there and nothing more.

JW mention in Geography book
by Nihilistic Journey ini was reading a book exploring he relationship between geography and religion and found the following quote starting on page 121 of chris park's sacred worlds.. park, c. c. (1994).
sacred worlds: an introduction to geography and religion.
london: routledge.. one of the most dynamic religious groups in terms of disseminating its beliefs is the jehovah’s witnesses.

It will take a war that will literally kill billions in order for them to be saved into paradise.
Yes, they do not engage in war now, but they pray for the deaths of all who do not satisfy their Heavenly Fathers "will". (Unknown to them sadly)

I wonder if the 200 million was just a typo left unchecked?
Either way a pacifist is:
a person who believes that war and violence are unjustifiable.That is a far throw from what the JW's believe with their Armageddon teaching. -

Fight Fire With Fire!
by The Searcher inwolves use their "loyalty" questions to trap others - "do you believe we're living in the last days/this is god's organization/faithful slave?
" - yet resolutely avoid discussing topics which put their org in a bad light, my "loyalty" question to them would be - "do you accept literature truth over bible truth?
" they will either run or be forced to ask for examples of alleged differences.any other suggestions for "loyalty" questions?.

@a believer. Why can't you "wait till it's all fixed"? Are you saying you wish death on the billions of men, women, children and babies who are not Jehovah's Witnesses?
That attitude is not very Christ-like.

Don't know or care what I am. It's just a label. I don't believe in a loving God, angels, the devil or spirits.
Is there A God? Who knows? But if there is one he must hate his creation.

Our first act of rebellion against the Watchtower.
by The Rebel inone day at art class, we were told we were to draw a naked woman.
i knew as a witness this would be wrong, but i awaited the lesson in anticipation, it would be the first time i had seen a naked woman.
i remember sitting at my esal waiting ten or fifteen minutes for her to appear.

Great life experience! Have you continued in your artistry?
Growing up I had many "girl friends" who were just friends, nothing more. There was no romantic involvement and it never lead to anything but companionship. It's sad that Watchtowerites cannnot experience close friends with the opposite sex because they think we humans cannot control our sexual desires when alone.
As for first acts of rebellion against Watchtower? Buffy the Vampire Slayer binges with the wife and coming here for confirmation that Watchtower was a lie.
