  i remember when paterson was built.

  the so called training facility.

  I can't figure out what buildings/properties are still being used.

  Warick, Wallkill, Patterson, Kingdom Farms, Mountain Farm?

  Anyone know what and for what these U.S. properties are being used?

  Leaked videos - Why?

  by NewYork44M in

  thank you to those that have passed on "leaked" videos.

  one point that i have not seen discussed is "why" apostates are getting these videos.. are videos getting out because of a lack of internal controls, or are there more than a few disloyal insiders that are more than happy to pass on inside information.

  or, is there a strategic intent of releasing leaked videos?.

  So then, we have theories but no one knows for sure? Do the people posting these videos on this site know how these videos got out? Hacked or leaked?

  Why remove John 8:1-11 in the NWT if these verses speak highly of Jesus

  by I_love_Jeff in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i understand these verses were removed in the nwt as well as some other bibles because they were added later & considered uninspired.

  jesus protected an adultress so why remove it?

  it fits in nicely with his teachings, does it not?

  Really, the whole Bible could be edited and probably is and has been edited it's whole existence based on the minds and hearts of the editors.

  I believe this says alot about the governing body (Watchtower Society). It says they have no mercy in their hearts. They also have no understanding of modern psychology or desire to learn it. They will edit the Bible to fit their own hard ass approach to governing their earthly subjects. Another example of why there will never be any meaningful reform in this sect. It will only draw to itself and retain those who agree with this same closeminded hard assed approach.

  So What Drastic Money Change is Next?

  okay, they cheapened the product by getting rid of hardcover books.

  they reduced printing of mags.

  they drastically reduced the number of pieces of printed paper that members would "place" in people's hands in various ways, the biggest one being that they put them on a cart and don't encourage people to take them.they cut d.o.

  Thanks for the answer (which I pretty much expected) but I couldn't resist asking the question anyway. :)

  Is it possible congregations that don't keep up with the asked for amount of money would be disbanded? Even if they are considered spiritually healthy in all other ways?

  A ridiculous thing I found in the old young people’s book

  by Addison0998 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  it was in some book for young people that i found going through the watchtower library when i was doing research for old publications, i cannot believe this lunacy, i feel so bad for the teenagers at the time who had to try to take this seriously, but they’re not a high control religion or cult though, anyways here is is : .

  if you sleep in a room alone and you find that you seem to feel special stress in this direction at night, you may be able to arrange matters to share a room with another member of your family.

  also, you may find it helpful to sleep on your side rather than on your back or face down.. 18 another thing that may be helpful is to see to it that your clothing does not unnecessarily cause friction with the sexual organs.

  Maybe this advice worked for the old men who made up the governing body but I doubt it worked for any teenagers.

  Do JWs Say They Are Fulfilling Prophetic Bible Prophecies Any Longer?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  every bible book pretty much was applied to the “anointed remnant “.

  if a prophet blew his nose it was a fulfillment of a future deed done by the “anointed”.. have they stopped this nonsense?

  ?.

  Not to worry, in ten years or so they will come back with more typical/anti-typical b.s. and call it new light. What is old is new again they say.
