Blondie,

Still, the public of the pope and the hiring of an external auditor is far more than the Watchtower is willing to do or will ever do.

The best thing to get her out is to have her watch JW.org. Diligently watch everything that is being said and dissect it to the bare bone using reason. There's nothing better for her. If she is good material to go out, she will be out in a year. If she was born to be a drone, nothing will get her out, not JWfacts, not JWN, not even Tony.

Simon most the people locked up here are minor offenses and pot possession. Not violent crime. Another big mess

You are not providing data to back up your point. Most of those who committed the offenses knew the rules, but went ahead and violated them. I remember mayor Rudy Giuliani turned around New York precisely by punishing serious and petty offenses. Law enforcement has to be serious about penalties.

What's the point of making laws if they are not enforced. If you don't like the petty crime laws vote your representatives out of office,

Bible Versus Quran Experiment - Genius!

by cofty in

absolutely brilliant social experiment.

Christians and Muslims consider their books great moral guides and the best source of wisdom, but prefer to live under humanists' laws and principles, even though they don't admit to it. Overtime I am realizing that many non believers are far more knowledgeable about the Bible than 99% of Christians.

Newborn Loses Faith In The Jehovah’s Witnesses After Record 6 Days

by Watchtower-Free in

green bay, wiin a turn of events that has stunned the worldwide medical community, local infant nathan jameson, born just six days ago, has become the youngest person ever to permanently and irrevocably know jehovah's witnesses are a harmful cult..this shatters all previous records, university of chicago psychologist douglas mcallister said monday.

in all of documented medical history, there is no case of a newborn taking less than four months to develop the mental faculties required to grasp the full extent of this nightmare called jehovahs witnesses.considering he already comprehends harsh realities that most jehovahs witnesses spend their entire fleeting, shallow existences attempting to deny, baby nathan is quite the little miracle!

he added.though he has not yet developed the capacity for speech, extensive cognitive testing has definitively shown that the shockingly perceptive 6-day-old fully understands and accepts that jehovahs witnesses cannot be trusted, that they remain far too ignorant for their opinions to be reliable, that a lack of self-awareness about their own destructive cult pervades them as a whole, and that most are too ineffectual to successfully pursue facts evidence and reason.sources said the early-blooming newborn was putting two and two together about the real nature of the jehovahs witnesses cult even before leaving the hospital, where his first sensory experiences included the shouts of sick people arguing to get treatment they urgently needed, visitors staring vacantly at smartphones as they scanned jw.org for fear inspired motivation.local reports confirmed the babys disillusionment was only compounded by the fact that he spent his first days in the bleak and soulless company of jehovahs witness relatives , their empty cult non-culture allowing him to realize in record time that all jw pursuits are cold, joyless, and devoid of any substantive purpose or integrity.for a baby, he sure is an insightful little guy, nathans mother, melanie jameson, told reporters.

Science will never contradict the Bible

You are right. Science doesn't give a rip about the Bible. Science is not interested in contradicting or supporting anything or anyone, other than truth and facts.

Elders now ORDERED by the Org to fleece the sheep

by The Searcher in

the org is now demanding money from the witnesses, via the latest letter sent to elders regarding the circuit's excess funds.

succeeded in getting elders everywhere to hand over their own congregation's "excess funds" - now their circuit's bank balances are going to be plundered.. the spineless and subservient elders will cooperate without a whimper, because they're afraid of losing their little bit of power which the org has bestowed upon them.

(john 11:48).

"should donate...". In the sentence, "donate" lost its meaning of a voluntary action and got replaced by a duty, an obligation.

The resolution should state that at the conclusion of each assembly, funds in excess of the target balance will be donated to the worldwide work."

In the context "resolution" indicates that a proposal is submitted to a vote, but immediately, when you add "should" and "will be", it loses its correct meaning and becomes an order from outside of the committee. What's the point of forming committees and casting votes. These guys are shamelessly out of Orwell's Nineteen Eighty Four

Two Year Delay in Building New KHs - What Is the Real Impact?

by committeechairman in

where are all these kingdom halls that were going to start being built?

the rbc arrangement was officially announced as an arrangement that was ending in the united states branch territory in a letter on january 24, 2014 (although this letter is no longer listed on jw.org).

this means that 23 months have passed since the announcement of the ldc taking over and "acceleration" of kingdom hall builds.. what has happened in the meantime with kh construction?

Now the infamous picture of JW's conducting meetings in basements, published about a year ago, makes more sense. It was not fear mongering, it was part of the "grand plan", or whatever they call it now.

Is this the earliest WT reference to 1975?

by Splash in

i thought that the 1975 thing started in the mid to late 60's, but it seems the seeds were sown two decades earlier.is this the earliest reference to it?.

18 how many today are awake to the fact that the lord christ jesus, by his resurrection of the faithful bride members that slept in death, is taking his "bride" unto his father's house and the marriage of the lamb has begun' .... they do not say, 'it is a long time yet to the wind-up, and, according to the present understanding of bible chronology, six thousand years of human history will end first in the coming seventies and till then it is a long stretch to serve the lord continuously and undividedly.'.

... they keep their eye and heart on jehovah's kingdom, and not on the time clock.
