  JWs the kings of plagiarism

  by Hecce in

  the wt used to be rich for the quality of their public speakers, at the top of the ladder were the dos motivating the brothers on a weekly basis.

  some of them used very folksy experiences related to the brothers as motivational tools, when you left the convention those experiences were the talk of the town.

  i remember one very well qualified brother serving as do that was constantly using those sort of experiences as part of his arsenal, at one time he related one about a sister that new that she was going to die soon and while meeting with the family and brothers for final preparations she requested to be buried with a fork in her hand.

  How many killed by the 5 Cholera pandemics during the 1800's?

  by redpilltwice in

  you all know jwfacts (run by paul grundy).

  on this website, under “did the last days start 1914” ---> “pestilence”, it says:“during the 1800's five cholera pandemics killed around 100 million people.” .

  there is no link to any source of info, so i emailed paul and asked where i can verify that total number?

  is it possible to full time pioneer while working a full time job without making up the hours?

  i know of a brother who recently got married too a pioneer the guy was really desperate to get married because his wife despite her many 'spiritual credentials' has very few christ-like qualities unfortunately, anyway that's besides the point.

  he is a pioneer now and i'm sure he will be a ms soon the organisation likes that type of stuff the 'pioneer couple' so it shouldn't come as a surprise.

  Ridiculous statements in this weeks study article

  by the truth is mine in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  maybe it is just me but when i read this paragraph all i could do is shake my head and wonder how i used to buy into this crap and how people don't wonder what the hell the writers are thinking'.

  "imagine what life would be like if god did not have love for mankind.

  we merely have to look at the awful history of this world with its human rulerships under its unloving and wrathful god, satan the devil.

  just a wee warning on following links to jwtalk (jwt).

  if you are a member there then it is very easy for the mods to identify if you have come in from this site.

  they will then ban you.. so, if you are member here and trying to lurk there then don't click on any links to jwt, just copy and paste the link into a new browser tab..

  2. beliefs

  as one of jehovah's witnesses for over 40 years, i was always taught that we were the only ones who went door to door, preached world wide, built our own buildings and so on.. however in the past year living in the south, not 1 jw has knocked on my door.

  yet 4 various people from local churches have.. tonight i meet a young man who is preaching with a group in china (baptist) a block away i watched a congregation build their own church.. i could go on all night with the thing i have found to be un true with the org.. glad i'm out.

  growing up i lived in the middle of florida in the southern part.

  i had a friend whose father was an elder, and would stay at their homes during the weekends.

  one of the "rules", as we all know jw love rules, was that who ever spent the night had to go out in field service on saturday.

  2. bible

  from paragraph 12. one brother began viewing pornography at the age of 12, and he continued to do so in secret for over a decade.

  he relates: it was very hard to admit to my wife and to the el- ders what id been doing.

  but now that i have admitted it, i feel that a huge weight has been taken off my shoulders.
