  The Watchtower Society killed my website

  by Elsewhere in

  2. friends

  you can thank the watchtower society for this.. here is an email from my hosting company:.

  unfortunately it appears your site/account was involved in violation of using copyrighted material involved with watch tower bible and tract society of pennsylvania.".

  as a result of this abuse and activity, we will be unable to reinstate this account for any reason.. in addition, due to the nature of this abuse and the risk of transferring sensitive or illegal content if we were to provide you your files, we will be unable to provide with backups.. it is unfortunate that this has occurred, and we are aware that more than likely this was not your intent to host, however the fact remains it did exist and complaints were made.

  Beginning to see a pattern here. In fact, I have in my hand a never before released internal WTS memo:
  
  (begin sarcasm)
  
  The WTS Legal Department's Tactics for Acheiving a Victorious Strategic Win Against Apostates and Their Web Sites, Which Embarras US"
  
  Dear Brothers. Simply run this plan, in the following order. Stop when you get results:
  
  (1) Send complaint to web host
  
  (2) Send scary Cease & Desist demand to web host
  
  (3) Send even more scary Cease & Desist demand to web site proprietor
  
  (4) File law suit claiming copyright infringement; include ridiculous "punitive damages" claim, make sure the vile apostates are quaking before the wrath of Jah's mighty legal department. Remember, if Jah could fell the walls of Jerico with a bunch of trumpets, just imagine what He can do with an in-house legal department and access to endless supplies of Tax Free donated cash.
  
  (note to Elders: the following steps have not yet been tested; however we are confident that Jah has provided us with a winning plan)
  
  (5) Upon losing suit, launch appeal
  
  (6) Upon losing appeal, launch higher level appeal (Note: apostates pockets are not as deep as Satan's pockets. Even though Satan controls all the resources of the entire world, he is a miser and doesn't provide for Apostates very well. The apostates will probably not make it past this step.)
  
  (7) Upon losing Supreme court appeal, remind the Brothers and Sisters(tm) that the "whole world is controlled by Satan".
  
  If, at any stage the WTS is successful, remind the Bro's and Sis's that Jehovah protects His People(tm).)
  
  (end sarcasm)

  2. friends

  i need your help to continue my lawsuit against the watchtower society and the doctor who the watchtower society arranged for to give my daughter arsenic.

  the wts lawyer, hlc members and the doctor deceived bethany and lied to her, convincing her that arsenic would cure her.

  bethany was convinced that arsenic could cure her and was curing her.

  A suggestion to those that are following the advice to send cheques/drafts:
  
  As I understand things, it is often very difficult to cash a cheque in Canada that has been drawn on an American bank.
  
  But there is an easy solution, and still fairly anonymous (and this works from pretty much any country, not just USA):
  
  Go to your local Post Office. Ask for an International Money Order -- these usually come on PINK PAPER. No matter where in the world you are, Mr. Hughes will be able to cash it without difficulty. Also, I'm pretty certain that this is more economical that getting a Bank Draft at your local bank.

  I echo greendawn's question:
  
  Did they catch the person that did it?
  
  As for the "miracle" claims: boy-oh-boy, Jah just doesn't do miracles like the good-ole-days, does s/he?!?!?! Once upon a time, he would protect humans thrown directly into a massive fire, and they would come out unscathed. Now, the best he can do is keep the death count in an IED incident down to one, and the casualty count down to forty.
  
  Hey, I'm no deity, I'm neither omniscient nor omnipotent, but I think I could have done better at "miraculous protection" that day!

  Elders accuse us of Mail Fraud

  by inbyathread in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  well the sh*t has finally hit the fan now.

  it seems that several families in the neillsville / marshfield area have received packages with apostatetm material enclosed.

  at the service meeting last thursday night in two (count them) two congregations the elders have announced that a mail fraud scheme is in the area with packages arriving at publishers homes.

  LMAO!
  
  From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mail_fraud:
  
  ====
  Mail fraud refers to any scheme which attempts to unlawfully obtain money or valuables in which the postal system is used at any point in the commission of a criminal offence.
  ====
  
  I wonder what mental gyrations the elder body(tm) went through to come up with this:
  
  

  • the mail is from Apostates(tm)
  
  
  • Apostates(tm) only tell lies (trust us, there is NO WAY they could be telling the truth, NO WAY the WTS could have EVER chosen to become affiliated with the UN, etc.
  
  
  • therefore this is a lie delivered via the mail
  
  
  • therefore this is Mail Fraud
  
  
  • (this is the best part) Although we are not deputized by the Federal Government, we have been appointed by Holy Spirit(tm) (which is almost equally important as being a FED!) so we are qualified to (a) determine that this is "mail fraud" and (b) protect the public... whoops, I mean continue to blind The Friends(tm) by instructing them how to deal with this Mail Fraud

  
  
  Now, this gets worse the more you analyse it: I'm pretty sure that legitimate mail fraud investigations instruct you to keep the samples of fraudulent mail, to be used at time of prosecution! Do NOT destroy them.
  
  Hey, WTS legal drones (yes, I know you are monitoring my posts here); you might want to contact those congregations and get the elders to stop impersonating a federal mail inspector; federal jail time for the Local Elder Body(tm) won't help the congregation one bit!

  Advice:
  
  You seem to have misplaced your "Pay Attention..." book.
  
  Think of this as Spiritual Warfare. Seriously, those elders don't have a right to truthful information about you, your personal beliefs, or their precious book.

  In case you were serious... Australia is on the other side of the planet. Right now they are in late summer. And I'm pretty sure that Australia, like most of the world (USA excepted) are using Celsius, not Farenheit.
  
  35C is very hot (let's see... 35 *9/5 + 32 = 95degrees Farenheit) Whew!

  Let me say how pleased I was to see Watch Tower quotes used to catch the man's lies. Of course, we'll never know where the quotes came from, but it still gave me a warm feeling.
  
  Also, we learn an important lesson (all you lawyers take note): if you misname a document, a JW will use the minor error to deny the existance of that document.
  
  This guy said he never heard of the "Custody Packet". That may be true, although we all know -- as did he -- that the lawyer was referring to the document published by WTS called "Preparing for Child Custody Cases". It probably made it easy for Honest Elder Johnson to LIE when it was called by another name.
  
  Again, he later said he'd never heard of the "Organization Manual". Again, technically true, but Liar C.O. knew they were referring to "Orgznized to Accomplish Our Ministry".
  
  I saw this tactic used by another liar, under oath: WTC Canada President Ken Little, at the Vickie Boer trial. The book in question was the "Pay Attention..." book, but Vickie's lawyer incorrectly referred to it by another (I think older) name. Ken promised that he had "no idea" what the lawyer was referring to... until a copy was magically presented to him in court! Caught in a lie, he protested that "this book isn't called {whatever the incorrect name was}."
  
  Take heed, you lawyers. JoeHoes will use the slightest missed comma or mispronunciation as an excuse to lie, if it furthers their interests.

  Are the demons harassing you?

  by Gill in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i found this particular article in the 'questions from readers' section of the april 15th 2006, watchtower, incredibly shallow and non specific.

  it did not define what a jw was to consider a 'demon attack' and could well explain why the average jw considers their car breaking down, on their way to fs an out and out attack from satan and his deemunz!.

  the question was:.
