  Rosemont Cemetery II

  okay, so here's a follow-up to my post a while back regarding the society tearing down the pyramid monument.

  they cleared the area and this is what they did.

  notice ... nothing about the watchtower connected to it, just slabs of cheap concrete..

  This should serve as a lesson to current B'lites who mistakenly think that they will have WTC's approval and love even after they are pushing up daisies in the local cemetary, WTC has NO LOYALTY TO ANYONE - YOU INCLUDED!

  WTC has tossed CT Russell and Rutherforn under the bus as they try to distance themselves from the absurdities these men fostered. Knorr is next and eventually Franz due to their very questionable personal lives and beliefs.

  Are you over 62 and still at Bethel? Maybe in the retirement home in Fishkill? They will throw you away like a soiled knapkin as soon as they are able. Don't believe me? Here on the outside we know some who never thought they would be kicked to the curb. Oh, you have not kept up with them? Get ready for a dose of Watchtower reality because it will come. Not IF - Just when.

  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.

  millstone research video:.

  WTC is working over-time to erase their past, but occasionally they stir up curiosity by their own arrogance. Jackson can't keep from tripping over himself as he attempts to undo what he has done. What a fiasco.

  So now it's for ALL dedicated servants of the Most High and Jesus Christ? For decades WTC claimed that the entire Christian Greek scriptures were written exclusively for the anointed with limited benefit for the great crowders. If they could make up their minds, that would be a start...

  2 Peter and Jude and 1 Enoch

  by Parallax in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'm new to the forum and i have a question about what was said in a 16-year-old thread at this forum.

  a poster by the name of leolaia said.... the author of 2 peter did not recognize that jude 6 was an allustion to 1 enoch (just as he did not realize that jude 9 was an allusion to the assumption of moses and thus rephrased it incoherently in 2 peter 2:11), or he may have objected to the enochic reference (just as jude 14-15 was omitted in 2 peter 2).

  in either case, the author overlooked the enochic allusion and instead recognized the passage as an allusion of hesiod and thus embellished the passage from jude with an allusion to hesiod's tartarus.. .

  Truth_b_known - very insightful. I will read the books again to see if I can pick up on the plagarism. The compilation of the Bible books continues to interest me even after many decades of study. I do not think that WTC has ever provided accurate statements of their own originality - just regurgitated what was popular. As a result, much of what I believed followed their unscholarly narrative. Maybe it will make no difference as I take my last breath, but I still want to know.

  Climate propaganda

  gotta love jwdotorg as usual regurgitating the financially/politically motivated (and thoroughly disproved) climate change propaganda:.

  Truth_b_known - I really like the three million year old pictures. I need some pictures from a month ago when someone slammed into my car while it was parked in front of my home. Can you help?

  Simple Question Re 1914

  by Slidin Fast in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  wt claims that satan was thrown out of heaven in october 1914 precipitating ww!

  and the end times.

  a small problem with that is ww1 started on july 28th 1914 whilst satan was still in heaven picking his nose.. how did we not see this and waste years of precious life?

  DJW - very interesting research - thanks! As for WTC readjusting their 1914 doctrine, I suspect that would upset the whole apple cart. Numerology is great fun but WTC actually takes it serious. It might be compared to living your life using a pack of Tarot cards in your back pocket..

  I made a Website to examine the scriptures/words usage in every JW publication since 1950/1970

  hi everyone!i'm new here, but have been active on the reddit r\exjw community.

  i have just published a website where i analysed the last 50-70 years worth of watchtowers, awake, books, brochures, and kingdom ministries/work books.. i have collected all the data and published it at the link below.

  you can also see below an example of genesis.

  Heat maps fascinate me. I have always believed that WTC regime changes were the biggest driver of "new light". Maybe your maps will confirm that.

  The Morning Star was given me last year - 'hidden manna' now available for your review

  by JohnRossStar in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  hi - quite the introduction, huh?

  so the 'morning star' is christ himself and he has guided my thinking and studies to uncover where exactly the wtb&ts went off track, offending jehovah greatly and causing him to 'abandon his sanctuary'.

  i've posted the information on reddit jwexwatchtower - please study the articles carefully and put them to the test versus scripture.

  Experiences with kiss up kick down Jehovahs witnesses

  i’ll go first.. in a previous congregation we had a pioneer couple that have since gone on to be gilead graduates and are now either in circuit work or translation.

  they checked all the boxes off the societies list so they were exemplary.

  Rules of the road for JWs:

  1. Don't do business with other JWs

  2. Don't lend money to other JWs

  3. Don't hire other JWs

  4. Don't partner with other JWs in financial ventures

  DON'T - JUST DON'T. It is not worth the aggravation as you will be on the losing end.

  WATCHTOWER's RTO (Remote translation offices) like this one are million dollar luxury locations

  by Terry in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  more than 60 percent of our full-time translation teams work, not at branch offices, but at remote translation offices (rto).

  why is this arrangement beneficial?

  what equipment do translators need in order to work effectively at an rto?

  I'm with Road To Nowhere on this one. When they started buying these fabulous translation centers (luxury homes), my BS alarm was off the charts. They are nothing less than expensive getaway homes for the elite of the organization. I was at Bethel when translation was a sensible exercise conducted in a cubicle on a floor with no view. Real estate ventures for a non-profit must be justified so voila! Now the Org has lots of these critical translation facilities. "Jehovah filled the need for spreading the good news and it is beautiful!"

  Thanks for lifting this up Terry! I had forgotten how angry it made me so I needed a reminder.
