  The King of the North and the South, who are they now?

  by Anony Mous in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i know several wit-lesses that to date are researching these topics.. however i haven't heard much from any publications recently about it, i think the latest refresh was ~10 years ago.

  since then the power of the us has severely diminished (or at least the rhetorics about it has), russia is a small potato in modern era, the eu is a cowardly dog in the eyes of everyone and we have the rise of china which is as far as military might is concerned, a paper tiger.. we also have the rise of islam, especially since the end of the nato nation-building effort in afghanistan which is now in power in most of the middle east and africa, as well as regions of asia and growing strong in europe.. does anyone have noooo light about these developments.

  is islam the king of the south?

  Can a person order a free bible through the JWs?

  by jwundubbed in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i was researching the easiest bible to read (which the jw bible is not) and the best way to buy one online at low cost and it got me thinking.

  the jw.org is doing videos and has a website.

  have they joined the order-online phenomenon that is going on in the world today?

  Anyone get the feeling that the cult is really in trouble.

  by mickbobcat in

  so all the bs and hyperbole aside, to me it really looks like the cult is in trouble.

  shrinking member, selling halls.

  the move to televangelism is really strange to me.

  Definitely the Borg is in serious trouble....having no meetings at KH represents a lot less of revenue...maybe the only option is selling all the KH and just keeping the Assembly Halls...going like full internet, stopping preaching, etc.

  However, religion in general is suffering a lot the same way due to Covid.

  Go Bag and Catastrophes

  by StephaneLaliberte in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i live with my parents in law and yesterday, my mother in-law was very nervous about an email she got from the brothers in her congregation.

  it was asking if she would be able to receive people over at our house should there be a catastrophe.

  so, she asked me if i would agree with this.

  When I think about all that money that the central banks are creating lately that make make me a little nervous too....but nothing is to happen. Remember, the Borg has been in catastrophe mode forever and ever.

  What Is Truth?

  by minimus in

  1. jw

  just because you believe something as truth, it doesn’t make it truth.

  religious leaders may be admired and believed but they could be dead wrong.

  politicians can spout out “facts” that support their truth yet once further evidence comes through these facts are questionable.

  Ohhhh...it's just the media that seems more receptive now to the UFO thing....not long ago was so fringe and lunatic.

  By the way I always thought that ET life could be so different...maybe we could not even detect it.

  Yea, smiddy3 some topics here become ghostlike really fast...

  I'll bet that Awake is gonna be digital edition only...such a lovable provision....I think Watchtower too....just imaging simplification and huge $ savings!

  The Palestinian-Israeli conflict needs a strong peacekeeping force, like the one, remember in Kosovo, supported by the UN Security Council and Nato. When it started had like 40 k troops and it worked. Otherwise the conflict is gonna drag more or less forever.
