JWs closer to Islam than to Christianity.

by Lost in the fog in

ok, so i know that the following article is from a roman catholic church blogger, but i thought that his ratios and comparisons were very well set out, if anyone else is interested.

I found that most if not all the WT false doctrines go back to Theo Sufism. The Whirling Dervish are Sufists - they spin and spin till they are so dizzy they feel no pain. How very like WT who get people busier and busier so they no longer think for themselves and are willing to follow instructions coming from GB that do not appear sensible.

Theo Sufism has connections to the Mafia via a man called Mazzini (1800s) who was involved in establishing both Theo Sufism and the Mafia. Mazzini was in with Garibaldi. They were both members of the Carbonari and wanted to unite Italy. I believe the composer Verdi was greatly admired by them. Verdi wrote Nabucco - aka Nebuchadnezzar

Guess they wanted to get back to the good old days of the Roman Empire when Italy was all one.

2/10/20 20 hindsight: the wt fiction fig tree

by waton in

this week's, 2-10- 2020 jesus lesson 103, parables of the fig tree, prematurely spreading leafs, cursed because of raising false expectations.

what a perfectly fitting facsimile for the fruitless fiction that the wt corporation has produced during "christ's presence" .

!8xy, 1914, 1925, 1975, 2000, 2075. by their [prophetic] fruits you will know them, or the figurative fig leafs, not even covering the bare wt facts.

When I was translating one of my video into Spanish I found out that the Return of Christ in Spanish can be translated as the Lap of Christ. Like he's a runner who completes his lap and returns.

But they've got him running round the track endlessly. In their book he can invisibly return any number of times at any new date they pick.

Providing 1 year can be 8 years long they got 1914 right. It's just a variation on the theme of a day for a year. In their case 1 year for 8 years. Or thereabouts, roughly, give or take, generally speaking.

No its not scriptural/right. But they don't care about being wrong. What they hate is being contradicted.

a jobo i know has cancer.

her son goes and cleans her house and generally cares for her.

so does another non-jobo relative.. the congregation, interestingly, has shown very little support apart from the odd one rabbiting on about 'bible promises this and that'.. so, the co visited and said, 'but your son is an apostate(tm).

Yes - GB want the money and assets left to them in the wills of those they smugly abandon. What's more if they are not dead but have dementia and accidentally hand over £10,000+ more than they intended, this so called charity, doesn't promptly hand the money back.

Regarding robots - I have been told I got them just right in my cartoon.

Elder faithful sister I knew became infirm/housebound. The apostates (who were probably not anti-Christian) up the road were keen to help her. I was new at the time, so still naive and couldn't work out why the pioneers would walk past her window without ever coming in.

The publishers learn to act with zero compassion. They are so full of their own sense of righteousness they don't see how heartless they have become.

I was very ill recently with something like flu. I crawled into town where I have been shunned many times to get something for my cough. I think if I had collapsed infront of one of their trollies, they would still have shunned me.

If you're "anointed" don't seek out other "anointed" so says the Watchtower January 2020

by RolRod in

when i was affiliated with the witnesses, there were barely 6,000 who profess to be of the anointed remnant.

i recently read somewhere that today there are over 20,000 who profess to be anointed.

that figure may be more when you consider those who meet and partake privately for fear of the stigma of claiming to be anointed.

Oh now I know what the Masonic Set Square is - its the corner they paint themselves into.

There is a possibility of more people (JWS) dying from suicide than from refusing a blood transfusion !

by Finkelstein in

i just recently heard of another person (jws) taking their life by suicide, a woman in her 30's.. sheesh, reflecting back upon all the other past jws that unfortunately did this, it creates an unnerving acknowledgement, jws are more likely to die from suicide than from refusing a blood transfusion.

i remember going back to the 1970's there were occurrences of people who i knew who were associated with the jws in one way or another committing suicide.. at the time i thought well people will do that just like the rest of the general population, not taking notice about the association with the jws.

but now i do see a connection in knowing of how people are mentally entrapped by this religoius cult in their psychological mind set and sociological behavior.

Think also - do they die from overwork? I know someone who volunteered for Chelmsford and died of (I think) a heart attack. Am not too sure of the facts as I was getting marked at the time. But sadly he died and now his wife is back working at Chelmsford dealing with her grief. They have used her on a promotional video to encourage sisters to go to Chelmsford cause you might get to drive a digger truck like her.

The future of the Watchtower Society

i left way back in 2002, seems a long time ago now and i haven't really kept up with any developments since.. i've kept one ear open and noticed recently there is talk of the wt being investigated over the sex abuse cover ups, but over the years this story has come in and out of the news.. what is everybody's predictions as to the future of the borg?

i know what most people want to happen, but realistically, are we just looking at certain elements being hit because of the restructuring they did a few years ago to protect from this very thing?

looking further ahead, you'd like to think that more people would wake up?

There are never baptized non-jws. Even they, although sometimes treated with contempt and labelled 'bad association', defend the organization to jws who have been booted out.

The minute I realised there was a deal-breaking false teaching, I felt overwhelmingly this false teaching had messed with the mind of a kind but simple woman I knew. She killed herself. I felt deep pity for her.

i just got back from field service.

i haven’t been out in a few months so now we don’t keep any written records and we don’t know which houses are do not calls.

i also noticed i was the only one with a book bag.

One door I know if is covered in no soliciting signs. They are bright yellow and some are very large. From a distance it looks like the door itself is one big no soliciting sign.
