Nice find. It's a little win for reasonableness and humanity but still a small win is better than no win. Now if courts will wake up and remove the "charity status" and 501.3.c tax exempt status of the Watchtower Real Estate Corporation, then I think we could see the light at the end of this nightmare...

August 2017 Watchtower - Screwing with J.W.'s minds again
by The Searcher inin the latest issue of double-speak, i'd like to highlight these two statements:.
page 3, par.
2 - "...how encouraging it is to know that jehovah’s faithful servants in the past felt free to express the same question that may loom in our minds, and they were not condemned for asking it!

Good find. It reminds me of the recent events in Russia.
This is how a brother in my hall explained the situation in Russia, before the final ruling. He said, 'if Russia bans Jehovah's people, we must leave it in Jehovah's hands because he obviously saw that a test was necessary for his people and eventually Jehovah will remove the ban when he sees fit. If Russia does not ban Jehovah's people then Jehovah proved that he is the sovereign and rightful ruler and by using his earthly organization he guides us on the right path'
I'm paraphrasing but I'm very close to his exact words. They are delusional. I think JW's who can't see through this need to seek professional help. JW's mentality can be summed up by this - "Heads, I win. Tales, you lose."

WTF are you on?
I think it may be time for the CDC to issue a pandemic warning for the brain virus attacking millions of people worldwide.

Hanging out with JWs is exhausting!
by StephaneLaliberte innot long ago, there was a funeral for a sister i haven’t know very much, so i did not attend.
however, some old “friends” i know drove down to town to assist and i ended up spending some time with them.
quite honestly, i was happy to see them again.

“They’re a bunch of phonies”.
You summed up the JW cult very succinctly. Thanks for the thread!

Kpop I see you are getting a lot of your information from The Blaze and Glenn Beck.
BWAHAHAH! Glenn Beck? Glenn Beck is a raving lunatic! The guy wears his magic underwear too tight or something, cause something isn't right with that dude. But nice try, tho. As I said, you don't know who we are.
The white nationalist groups that showed up in Berkeley were there because they knew they would find a fight.
Lions and tigers and white nationalists! OH MY!
Nope. Did you watch the feeds last night from Berkeley? So many "white nationalists!" (Shhhh don't tell anybody but they really black and Latino and Asian!) Imagine that! "White nationalists" protecting blacks and Latinos and Asians...

Oh and let's put the whole Oath Keepers are "white nationalists" to rest as well.

At every Trump rally, I've seen many different races, many LGBT, lots of women, lots of peaceful people getting along until the agent provocateurs named Antifa come out with their violence.
But wait, I thought Antifa is peaceful...

Would human settlement of Mars invalidate Bible prophecy?
by truthseeker ini don't think this topic has been discussed before but yesterday i read something to the effect that trump wants a human mission to mars to be completed within his presidency.. with that being said, the watchtower teaches that what started on earth ends on earth, in other words, the fall of adam and eve would end with the passing of the 1,000 year millennial reign when christ destroys all his enemies, rebellious "perfect" humans, and the devil and his demons who are let out the abyss for a short while.
he then hands the kingdom back to his father.
an elder in my old congregation once told us during a public talk that he was an ardent astronomer but then referenced the scripture where it says, "the earth he has given to the sons of men" (psalms 115:16).

To All Congregations Around the World,
We are happy to announce that we have voted and have found NEW LIGHT™! The "Two Witnesses" now represent 1) the earth and 2) Mars where Jehovah will establish a new kingdom.
Warning: If you do not agree with us you will be disfellowshipped.
Please post this on the information board until we decide to change our minds again.
Agape Christian Love,
Your Brothers

NotBlind 2 months ago
This is now the 2nd video in about 6 months that will be played at Kingdom Hells about the LDC 'arrangement.' And when I say arrangement, I mean shell game.
These people are producing more videos about LDC than the LDC is producing building projects. It's now been over 2 years since the big 3-hour online elders' assembly, and the number of KH's this great arrangement has produced in the USA is barely out of the single digits.
Meanwhile, congregation savings accounts were confiscated, circuit savings accounts were confiscated, local congregations with paid-for buildings are being told to pay an eternal rent/payment toward future construction, GB members are begging for money on TV, donated tools and machinery were sold for cold hard cash, printing of magazines has been all but shut down, hundreds of millions of dollars were gained from the sale of Brooklyn, and the few thinking JW's that are left are wondering where all the money went.
This organization is in full lockdown mode, and once Warwick is fully operational (within a few weeks), they will hunker down even more.
The LDC has existed for about 2 years, but it is already a failure. The lack of building projects (whether new construction or remodels) has not gone unnoticed by the R&F. This failed LDC idea will soon go the way of the Green Bible, the Pioneer Assist Others program, and the Trinity Brochure. Soon, the GB will declare the LDC arrangement a smashing victory, say it is no longer needed, and replace it with something else.
If anyone with half a brain questioned whether God was directing the Tower Slave International organization, observing the folly of the do-nothing LDC should remove all doubt.
Ok, wow. This is everything I wanted to write but was too lazy! Thank you! Sums up nicely how powerful the Borg mind control can be since most should be beyond the "let's ask questions" phase and onto the "honey, we're in a cult" phase.

Circuit Overseer's Idiotic Comment
by FedUpJW inat last night's clam the circuit overseer made this comment, "we elders sometimes have to act as judges in the congregation.
but we (the elders) are imperfect, and so cannot know everything about judicial matters.
that is why we (the elders) have the biblical rule that there must be at least two witnesses to wrongdoing.

I'm sorry but there is NO excuse for child abuse! The Catholic Church, which the JW cult loved to attack for years for their own child abuse situation, has OWNED their wrongs and has made radical changes to improve the quality of their religion. The JW cult? They just blame everyone else. Yeah, Jehovah's hand is guiding this organization! LOL

I was going to make a rebuttal but honestly I sense nothing but hatred from you towards me and no matter what I say, you can't get over your obsession with "white nationalists." Congratulations. You managed to derail this entire thread from the actual topic of discussion which is violent Antifa radical thugs shutting down free speech. End of discussion. Good bye.Once more: The white nationalists at the protest. According to you they were non-violent and only there to protest free speech?
