  Knorr on 1914: "I don't know." - Mouthy Alert!

  by compound complex in

  2. beliefs

  dear mouthy and other denounced ones,.

  you may find this double standard $%^@#@*&!

  "in 1975, knorr made a remarkable and candid statement to the governing body, which confirmed his growing disillusionment until his death two years later: ["]'"there are some things i know --- i know that jehovah is god, that christ jesus is his son, that he gave his life as a ransom for us, that there is a resurrection.

  Why are the world's anointed not called to Brooklyn to be Governing Body?

  by free2beme in

  when i was in the witnesses, and near the end of my time in.

  there was the whole new understanding, of putting non-anointed people in positions in the organization that were normally something an anointed person would be in.

  i remember them mentioning that the amount of anointed was dwindling and there needed to be people in these positions of responsibility, to make sure the work continues.. after this was highlighted and all good witnesses swallowed this thinking hook line and sinker.

  The Tetragram (YHWH)

  by RevFranklin in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is the watchtower's equivalent to the theory of evolution - there is no evidence but it must be so.

  in fact all the evidence points to the contrary.

  there is not one new testament manuscript known today in which the tetragram appears and there is no evidence of a conspiracy to get rid of the tetragram.

  by Sadie5 in

  2. friends

  after reading cruzenheart's post on the letter about her father, and the treatment he received from the co, william osbeck, and the elders of his congregation, it brought back my own memories of this particular co and his treatment of people.

  it was 1995 and one of the hardest years of my life.

  in february of that year, i learned i was pregnant with our fifth child.

  History of Head Covering for JW Women

  by UnDisfellowshipped in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it is not a case of her being appointed to conduct a congregational meeting.

  in such cases the dedicated brother should offer the prayer, and the sister may conduct the study with her head covered.

  for if a woman does not cover herself, let her also be shorn.1 cor.

  Was J.F. Rutherford - Exonerated?

  by Amazing in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the cornerstones of the watchtower society's claims about the 1918 trial of joseph f. rutherford and seven other co-defendants, is that the trial was a travesty of justice, where the defendants were railroaded off to prison.. to make their point, the society has repeatedly stated that joseph rutherford and his fellow defendants were "exonerated" of all charges, and subsequently released from prison fully vindicated.

  the society also attributed this 'victory' to jehovah's hand in matters, restoring the symbolic 'two witnesses' spoken of in revelation, and thereby, reactivating the kingdom preaching work.. what actually transpired is that the convicted defendants filed a petition for a "writ of error.

  " (trial transcript, pages 1-10, parts 1-30 ) the writ of error was allowed by the trial court, judge howe, and granted by the district court judge chatfield, whom the society earlier objected to and had removed from their trial, because they felt he would not be fair to them.. what does this mean?
