  Hi Vintage - Watchtower always enjoy a new dawn of something. They play a waiting game - a new generation is born and... there's one baby born ever minute (so to speak). So there's always a new audience with no knowledge of what went before that can be sucked in, organized and fleeced.

  I wonder if Lloyd ever wonders about living in the part the world that acted as a tinder box for 1914. There could be some ironies ahead.

  TonusOH - if you get a chance take a look at this video from 1989 - I think you'll be impress with what this man says.

  Hi Vintage - one of the best get rich quick schemes is to set up a religion. So you may not be far off!

  Atheism may require a tweek.

  Cults tend to include chanting, chatting to angels, dreams of going places (great for establishing pilgrim locations - set up cafes, flog souveniers, key rings and statues etc).

  Cults always fail on prophecy and raising the dead.

  Helpful Video with Fact Citations

  by Smiles in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this video may be helpful to someone you know inside or exiting wt captivity.. the video is one long hour, but it unpacks damning fact-checked citations along with some dredged audio clips of gb bs, such as fred franz publicly doubling down on 1975, and sam herd publicly degrading women.. the content will be familiar to most of us here, but it could be a 'narcan' antidote to help awaken someone from the jw poison overdose.

  Fascinating Quotations of The Faithful Slave

  by Vanderhoven7 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  do you have any amazing quotations that have been produced by the faithful slave over the years?.

  remember it's important that we should learn to love and value truth for it’s own sake; to respect and honor it by owning and acknowledging it wherever we find it and by whomever presented.

  a truth presented by the faithful slave himself is just as true as a truth stated by god.. share some of those amazing quotations that have fascinated you.

  Seat of their power - read it carefully. They change the number 3 into 11 by changing what they are talking about. Starts off as Jehoiakim's rulership then switches to Jehoiakim vassal service to Nebuchadnezzar. Its a different number 3! Like 3 apples are different to 3 pears. 1914 rests on this and Dan 2:1 (a different but equally silly trick).

  *** dp chap. 3 p. 32 par. 4 Tested—But True to Jehovah! ***

  The expression “for three years” is of special interest to us, for the opening words of Daniel read: “In the third year of the kingship of Jehoiakim the king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and proceeded to lay siege to it.” (Daniel 1:1)

  *** w64 10/15 p. 637 A Haughty Spirit Is Before Stumbling ***

  It was this event that Daniel the prophet writes about: “In the third year of the kingship of Jehoiakim the king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and proceeded to lay siege to it.” (Dan. 1:1) This “third year” of vassalage to Babylon would be the eleventh year of Jehoiakim’s entire reign and would be due to end on Adar 29, or March 19, 617 B.C.E. He died before he lived out the end of this eleventh year.

  I learnt sign language (a bit) but very few deaf people came to the meeting. Then I was encouraged to take up deaf/blind sign language. I managed to find a blind person who was almost interested but I never found a deaf and blind person who wanted me to sign into the palm of their hand.

  It all seemed a waste of time.

  And I don't know how they managed it but somehow they got a hearing transgender to have a study and attend the deaf group. I believe he had fathered 3 children but now identified as Daisy.

  and has suffered delirium and is still in hospital with no apparent improvement.. its been very distressing for me to say the least.

  Wow must be high demand in these part to join the Knights Templars. You'll be able to tell the zealots - ask them if they know how to say Governing Body in Tzeltal.

  I'd love to know if the Welsh translation contains the word 'boyo'.

  My pleasure - and I know a lot here have lost their faith or struggled with it. Where ever you are in relation to that here's an act of kindness towards some little owls who had lost their mum.

  If kind people act like this towards baby owls, never forget just how important you are to kind people - they actually love you! Warts and all.
