  Russian Ban upheld - JWs lose appeal

  by OrphanCrow in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the supreme court of russia has rejected the jehovah's witnesses' appeal.. https://jw-russia.org/news/17071719-195.html.

  july 17, 2017 the supreme court of russia has missed the last chance to restore law and justice for the 175,000 russian citizens professing the religion of jehovah's witnesses.

  it took less than an hour of the meeting a panel of three supreme court judges, to leave unchanged the decision taken earlier by the judge yuri ivanenko, the liquidation and ban any and all registered organizations of the religion.since there is no more effective domestic remedies, the believers will appeal to the european court of human rights and other international organizations.. *note: as reported by the jworg source, jw-russia.org.

  Fisherman Coincidence: 7 earthquakes 7.4 in Russia today.

  You have nicely adopted the crafty WT way of suggesting things without having the courage to own what you say.

  This is just like Fred Franz and his 1975 convention speech "We know what to expect.... but we're not saying" rubbish, or the KM "Could this be the last memorial? We don't know" nonsense.

  If you had any faith that what you imply is true then you would say "Jehovah has now caused earthquakes in Russia as retribution", but you know that's just absurd and ridiculous. Instead you try a Satanic "Is it really so..."

  Your post is pointless and gutless. Your stupid insinuations don't work on people who can think for themselves.

  Oct 2017 W/T on love.

  the october 2017 wt study article (simplified).

  let us consider some examples of fake love.

  when satan talked to eve in the garden of eden, what he said made it seem that he wanted the best for her.

  It doesn't matter what the WT write, their corruption has been laid bare.

  More and more want nothing to do with their ridiculous lies.

  Publishers are seeing their fabricated nonsense for what it is.

  Even elders are now at a loss to explain some of these "clutching at straws" doctrines.

  The WT is done. Watch this space.

  The WT and the GB are dumb. I mean sub-normal intelligence dumb.

  Anything that happens is as a consequence of GB dogma, but it's not planned or anticipated.

  There's no intention to go full evangelical but the GB stumble to problem to problem.

  When I gave a talk, whether at a kingdom hall or an assembly, it was notes based but passion delivered.

  I could throw away my preparations and deliver from the heart - passionate, convincing and inspirational.

  It seems Fat Tony and his GB crew are now tied to autocue.

  after learning the alphabet no other education required.

  history would be distorted, science rejected.

  i'm surprised that gb didn't realise there is big money in education, big tony could be the professor of bullshit..

  The Aleph Bet (hebrew) or Alpha Beta (Greek) are the building blocks of biblical comprehension.

  Respect to everyone who has the determination to dig a little deeper and understand a little more.

  Russell's Pyramidology Originated In Edinburgh Scotland

  by cofty in

  2. beliefs

  the edinburgh city observatory sits atop calton hill at the east end of the city centre adjacent to burn's monument, scotland's national monument modelled on the parthenon, and nelson's monument with the time ball that falls at 1pm every day except sundays.. .

  the second astronomer royal of edinburgh was charles piazzi smyth (jan. 1819 - feb. 1900).

  smyth was a man of many and varied interests including meteorology, producing weather observations that still form an important part of uk climate records to this day.. building on the work of james taylor, smyth became fascinated by the great pyramid of egypt at giza.

  Unless you have been sent to college by the WT Bethel, in which case you are extra spiritual.

  loyalty—part of the new personality (s-341a-18-e 5/17).

  note to the circuit overseer:.

  use this outline for the tuesday service talk from september 2017 through february 2018. you will need to prepare your own 30-minute service talk for use after the watchtower study.

  So for the faithful who have remained loyal their entire lives, they are now being browbeaten with more demands for loyalty. No commendation or lightening of the load, just warnings, threats, intimidation. STAY LOYAL.

  Even the local needs part says "Show how the congregation can make the improvement over the next several months".

  What you have been doing is not enough. Make improvements. Do more. You're still not good enough. Work harder.

  Is it any wonder that so many are at breaking point.

  BBC News: Contaminated blood scandal inquiry announced (Expect Some JW Propaganda Over This!!)

  by pale.emperor in

  http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-40566761.

  an inquiry will be held into the contaminated blood scandal that left at least 2,400 people dead, the prime minister has confirmed.. it will establish the causes of the "appalling injustice" that took place in the 1970s and 1980s.

  nhs patients were given blood products that were infected with diseases, such as hepatitis c and hiv.. families of those who died will be consulted about what form the inquiry should take.. it could be a public hillsborough-style inquiry or a judge-led statutory inquiry, prime minister theresa may confirmed.. the prime minister's spokesman said: "it is a tragedy that has caused immeasurable hardship and pain for all those affected and a full inquiry to establish the truth of what happened is the right course of action to take.. "it is going to be a wide-ranging inquiry.".

  That BBC report says the diseases were transmitted when patients accepted the blood clotting fraction "Factor VIII":

  BBC: They needed regular treatment with a clotting agent Factor VIII, which is made from donated blood.
  

  JW's can't claim they were protected from this danger because it is a blood fraction, not one of the four banned components.

  *** w00 6/15 p. 30 Questions From Readers ***
  For example, clotting factor VIII has been given to hemophiliacs, who bleed easily. Or if someone is exposed to certain diseases, doctors might prescribe injections of gamma globulin, extracted from the blood plasma of people who already had immunity.... Should Christians accept these fractions in medical treatment? We cannot say. The Bible does not give details, so a Christian must make his own conscientious decision before God.

  So if a JW tells you they were protected in this case by their blood policy, please tell them they were not.
