  Jehovah's Witnesses in Israel

  accusing the witnesses of targeting society's weaker elements, including new immigrants, the poor and the handicapped, critics blast what they call the group's devious recruitment methods.

  "they've mapped out all of israeli society and then target segments that don't get attention elsewhere," said cohen.

  Red Sea Chariot Wheels?

  by MissingLink in

  2. friends

  hey guys.

  there is an email making the jw (and other christians) rounds right now that is basically a copy of this article.

  that claims that artifacts found in the red sea prove that egypt's army was wiped out when moses and friends crossed.. is this true, or a hoax?.

  I think there is truth to this. I had one of those Biblical archeology articles on this subject. There were photos from under the sea.

  Well as long as that wall is not there, you have a chance with him.

  I was put in contact with someone I use to witness to, this guy was a diehard JW, nothing I said penetrated. If the Society could clone him, they could take over the world. Ten years later, I get an e-mail from him. He left the borg. Something happened, and all those conversations we had just poured in.

  I remember a few years ago that the Society had problems in Israel, with their Kingdom Halls being firebombed. It got to a point that their buildings had no writing on them, because of the name "Jehovah" prominently displayed,

  Actually, I've had my door knocked on by Mormons, Seventh Day Adventist and the local chucrh down the street. Bible Students also go door to door, but not as offen as JW's do

  When I lived in the Bronx, we had an elderly sister in her 90s, confined to a wheelchair, had arthritis in her fingers, she couldn't even hold the mags, but every morning, she had her nurse wheel her around by the train station, offering passerbys the WT and Awake!
