The Spanish Inquisition was actually aimed at stamping out heresy, and was not under papal control. It included the forced conversion of Jews and Muslims (including a very distant ancestor of mine).

Are You Enjoying living in Jesus Christ`s Paradise after 40 years of his reign ?
by smiddy3 init has been 40 years since 1975 when 6000 years of human creation took place according to wt theology,when jesus christ was supposedly to begin his 1000 year reign in which earth was supposed to be turned back to an eden like paradise.. 1975 was the second attempt of the wt to predict when 6000 years of human creation took place,the first time it was supposed to have occurred was in 1872 .. so by that reckoning we should be living 40 years into jesus christ`s 1000 reign .. on the other hand wt theology states that jesus returned in 1914 to do what ?
sit at his fathers right hand until 1975 ?.
of course this all hinges on jehovah`s witnesses / watchtower belief that a creative day was 7000 years long that they taught for decades .. do they still cling to this belief ?

Ethnic Europeans don’t do that?
Unfortunately, that is not correct.
During the Balkan wars of the early 1990s, similar atrocities were carried out under the euphemism of “Ethnic Cleansing”. The perpetrators were all “Ethic Europeans”, and more often than not Catholic or Orthodox by religion.
Also, at a place called My Lai in a country called Vietnam, a group of American soldiers performed similar acts of savagery during a morning of rape, burning, murder and mayhem on a March morning in the year 1968.

I saw things done to make children sit quietly at JW meetings which could only be described as atrocities.
No bones were broken, nobody died, but what was inflicted on those children (who were just being children) was outright inhumane. 40+ years later, I still cringe when I think about it.

Remembering Rutherford
by Sea Breeze inhe seems to me to be the angriest and most ill-tempered of all the wt presidents, especially after his stint in prison and failed prophecies.. “regarding his misguided statements as to what we could expect in 1925, he [rutherford] once confessed to us at bethel, “i made an ass of myself.”” watchtower 1984 oct 1 p.24.
rutherford died at beth sarim on january 8, 1942, at the age of 72.
[220] cause of death was...carcinoma of the rectum..."[21] .
