  C T Russell's pyramid monument gets taken away by the WTS.

  by Rafe in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  just recently the stone pyramid monument at c t russell's grave site was taken away by the wts.. six screens of the watchtower did a public discussion about the removal which may be still on that web site, that's where i heard about it.. it had been recently vandalized such the top head piece was removed and the carved christian cross on the monument was chiseled off.. since the wts owns that grave site, they have the right to do whatever they want to do with it.. my guess is that they will never put it back or redo the damage.. i think they will put it away in a obscure place and cover it, locked up somewhere.. the wts.

  has never been proud or willingly open about that monument for obvious reasons such as being associated in false religion, which they claim they are not and they admonish other christian faiths are.. your thoughts ?

  It's just so obvious that it was someone associated with the Jdubs that damaged it. Perhaps even the Org itself. They probably wanted to remove the embarrassing pyramid but wanted to excuse to do it.

  She knows there are problems in the WT : pedophiles, money, manipulation .. but she always says "Jehovah will clean congregation at time" ...

  Right... and btw, he will also heal the sick and feed the hungry...in time. And all the crime and injustice? yeah...in time.

  For now, he has his hands full. He is too busy with....well..huhh nothing. He is doing absolutely nothing now, but it seems he will always do something in the future.

  And by the way, what's preventing other religions from saying the same thing? If JWs point out wrongs in other religions why can't they also say...."well God will fix it in time."

  Is the door to door preaching work not the primary focus anymore?

  by pistolpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a few months back, one of my uncles who was an elder, asked the co, why jehovah would allow the door to door preaching work, to come to an abrupt end.

  this was when my uncle was starting to have serious doubts about the organization.. the co told him to be patient, and hang in there, because the governing body was on top of things and in time would explain what is happening regarding the preaching work.. my uncle asked; “what do you mean?”.

  co said; “focus on the wt study articles in the coming months” .

  Most JWs I know just love the carts. You get to "count time", you are "visible in the ministry", but rarely have to actually speak to anyone

  When I was still jdub we used to see a few sisters from another congregation who instead of door to door preaching would stand in the train station holding a Watchtower in their hand, waiting for someone to take one.

  We used to look down at them, and comment to ourselves that they were lazy, and didn't do the hard work of going door to door. Little did I know that years later, the entire Org would shift the model to exactly that -- standing around all day, except now you don't have need to hold a magazine in your hand.

  Taking The Knee 14 months after George Floyd's death

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  taking the knee became popular among sportspeople immediately after the death of george floyd in may 2020.. most football (that's soccer to you yanks) players are still taking the knee before matches more than a year later.. what has it achieved?

  .

  what do expect it to achieve in the future?.

  I wonder if this 'woke dividing' is an intentional device for a power that wishes to overthrow us?

  Bingo....very few realize it.

  The kneeling thing is nothing more than boasting. All of these footballers could very well organize a fund where they contribute to build a piece of infrastructure in a poor community.

  But all they can do is bend a knee while everybody watches as if that does anything. They just want to be seen doing it.

  Reminds me of a Seinfeld episode where George puts a dollar in a tip jar, but tries to take it back because he realizes nobody saw him doing it. What is important to him is to be seen doing it.

  I got a notice from my employer that every employee must take the vaccine and show proof of vaccination by end of next month.

  The whole thing is stupid. I'm not against the vaccine, but again once the vaccine is wide available, we must stop worrying about the people who don't want the vaccine.

  People should be allowed to absorb the risk of not taking the vaccine

  the remains of what may be one of the largest pterosaur's yet found have been discovered in outback queensland.

  the palaeontologists that have been examining the discovery describe it as having been a fearsome beast, with a spear -like mouth and a 7 metre wingspan.. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-08-10/dragon-like-pterosaur-outback-queensland-identified-named/100361038.

  Biden just committed an Archduke Ferdinand-level mistake all because he doesn’t understand foreign policy and his base hated everything Trump did for world peace.

  Don't give him so much credit. At this point, we're lucky if he knows where the middle east is. If Taiwan falls and the world allows this, then we know that we are on a fast track to China making the world bend their knee to their will.

  Well, wait, in this the same god that in order to kill a few million people decided to flood the earth killing 99.99% of all animals and 100% of all plants, while he had a zillion angels sitting around doing nothing?

  Seems to me that he is not the brightest bulb in the batch. I doubt he knows how to cure the common cold.

  btw, don't put it past the "machine" to already be planning the next war

  Retreating might be just the reset needed to go through a few years of no war, in order to engage in a new one. New terrorist attack on the way to give us the opening? Maybe....

  You forgot a big important factor. A lot of armament was sold and used, pockets were lined and wallets got fat. The goal of the war was achieved.

  Yes, the Afghanis are back where they started, but come on, it was never about that. See now, the Taliban are back into power and then in another 10 years we'll find a way to invade them again, and the whole cycle begins
