  2017 Sunday RC Final Talk & Comments About 1975

  by baldeagle in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  many of us here have commented on the deceitful friday afternoon video shown at the 2017 rc that discussed 1975.. the video attempted to shift the blame onto congregation members for the fiasco saying, "some were looking to a certain date as signifying the end of this old system of things.".

  this same video mentions how, “a few even went so far as selling their homes and quitting their jobs.”.

  we all know that the wt leadership created this teaching and endorsed it right up to its abject failure.. now below is the concluding talk given on sunday at the rc.

  It's interesting to be exposed to both those who defend the watchtower blindly to the end on the 1975 issue and also those who are irritated by it, yet stick, somehow, to the organization through it all.

  For they who accept the biblical account, or at least the historical one, the majority of Jews in Jerusalem stayed till the Romans butchered them like cattle. (see Josephus)

  I imagine their blessed religious leaders were there to keep them all in line so that the Roman Machine could grind their bones to powder.

  Can't find "hot" article through the WT Library Search?

  i just saw a video from mike and kim where (@6:00) she says:.

  you know what i noticed in the new watchtower cd-roms?

  is when you do a search for certain things that they would deem maybe apostates or certain questions, you can't find them in the search.. i know that sometimes, they get carried away and are not always factual.

  "Today, a Christian who serves only because he wants to live forever in Paradise could also be serving with a selfish motive."

  (First, they make you feel evil for wanting to live forever and then go right on to dangle that same carrot again)

  "Today, over six million true worshippers ...Are you one of them? If not, then mediate on what God offers .... THE HOPE OF LIVING FOREVER "

  And the dubs never seem to see through this crap.

  I'd like to see this question on the nursing exam.

  Is it okay to browse through Jehovah's Witnesses patient records, whether these patients are in hospital or not, to discern if these patients are compliant with the Watchtower governing body latest dogma on blood transfusion?

  Is it okay to report to your elders the names of any Jehovah's Witnesses who have information in their records indicating that they have accepted or will accept blood products disallowed by Watchtower dogma?

  Another day, another cart

  by Anony Mous in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was standing at a red light and i noticed the little cart standing there.

  they're barely noticeable and when i continued there was apparently someone on the other side of the street too.

  the only problem, the location is a very busy intersection which has virtually no foot traffic and they're hard to see to begin with, as you can see from my vantage point i couldn't even read the cart and three people next to them on this side and two of them on the other side.. .

  What would happen if you stopped, threw the cart in your trunk and drove away?

  Would the little old lady chase you down? Her granny stockings sliding down as she ran... pee herself maybe...

  Say she takes down the plate number. So what. Even if the cops came, you simply ask ...wasn't the damned thing free? If it ain't free, what is it there fore anyhow?

  Finders keepers anyway.

  Or, if you are walking by, you grab an arm load of watchtower bologna. Just keep walkin'. Toss it in the trash around the block and go for another pass. So what. What are they going to say or do?

  Or dump a load of sticky rancid juice all over it. LOL

  There's plenty of information concerning the why's and wherefor's. Putin is building a youth army and some have compared this to Hitler's plan. Putin is modernizing his army and navy and to go along with its new firepower, he needs young boots, men and women. Tanks and jets don't drive themselves you know. That is, unless Putin starts working with Google for self driving tanks.

  Why are Russian women having so many children? Because Putin is paying for it. In cash.

  And why is Putin doing that?

  https://www.rferl.org/a/russia-young-army/28345051.html

  He is preparing for large scale conflict.

  Is it not good, comrade, that sister Novik has shown herself a true patriot of the Russian motherland? Dah.

  She has made many children for the coming day of Russian glory. She should be rewarded.

  The hall is gone in Port Dover, but not because people are leaving.

  Port Dover population booms

  http://www.simcoereformer.ca/2017/02/08/port-dover-population-booms

  Interestingly, the same thing happened not long ago on Errol Road West. in Sarnia Ontario, northwest of Port Dover and on the edge of another of the Great Lakes in a thriving community where property values are riding high and the wealthy flock. I imagine that the "Society" gave directions to the "brothers" in these instances which resulted in members moving away to thin the herd.

  
  

  And there is yet another one for sale near Sarnia at 4416 Petrolia Line.

  SELL SELL SELL SELL SELL SELL.

  As close as it will ever come.

  Watchtower-1980-March-15-pp.17-18 Hold to Your Choice! In saying "anyone," The Watchtower included all disappointed ones of Jehovah's Witnesses, hence including persons having to do with the publication of the information that contributed to the buildup of hopes centered on that date."

  This was difficult for him to pull off. I know, I've done it during an Instruction Talk on several occasions while still being a dub. I veered off but not too far. Just enough that I got talked to after. But the "damage was done".

  I listened to the whole thing. He is a very good speaker.
