  do you think trump will run again for president or do you think he will just be a force for the republican party behind the scenes?.

  naaa.... he's done, there is no way the American people will reinstate him as President.

  I dont think Biden will run for a second term so the next election will be interesting.

  Recently appointed Elder and his Regular pioneer wife wake up in 10 minutes and walk away.

  i been seeing several experiences by jws who are waking up very quickly.

  not years, not months, not even days-----but minutes.

  it seems that all the hypocrisy of the watchtower is becoming more obvious to the members.

  ...and people wonder why the WTS pushed to have all Kingdom Halls and other buildings used by JWS to be legally titled toward the WTS. ?

  The WTS/JWorg is now worth billions around the world.

  Money the life blood of this and all religions. $$$

  Remembering Rutherford

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  he seems to me to be the angriest and most ill-tempered of all the wt presidents, especially after his stint in prison and failed prophecies.. “regarding his misguided statements as to what we could expect in 1925, he [rutherford] once confessed to us at bethel, “i made an ass of myself.”” watchtower 1984 oct 1 p.24.

  rutherford died at beth sarim on january 8, 1942, at the age of 72.

  [220] cause of death was...carcinoma of the rectum..."[21] .

  however I am puzzled. If you believed from before the 1980s that the WT claimed to be a prophet and since you knew they got so many things wrong, why did you stay with them for so long?

  So your saying that people who were baptized and fully active as a JWS cant awake to new found information that slowly changes their thinking about what they have been taught or persuaded to preach door to door. ???

  Do you enjoy taking the piss out people ?
  

  Since I don't know the governing body members personally (nor the anonymous

  writers of the writing team) it is very hard for me to know if they are lying, instead

  of merely telling false statements.

  Ok I'll give you an example, the WTS made the proclamation through its literature that mankind existence has come to 6000 years. First used in the early 1900's by C Russell, then in 1941 by F Franz , then again by him in the late 1960's to established 1975, he even said October of that year.

  All these proclaimed dates were devised under a premise that mankind existence has come to 6000 years and therefore supposedly living in the last days and that a new era of 1000 years was to come.

  The problem with this dating is that its impossible to make that calculation, to a given month no less from bible chronological calculations.

  Bullshit lies in other words.
  

  It is assumed that C Russell got that from Pyramidology which he taught and preached, then people like F Franz reused it as a form of promotional strategy.
  

  DJW I've been on this forum for over 16 years with different user names, I've gathered a lot information about the WTS/JWS religion since then.

  Your just new, so you've got a lot to learn so stick around if you will.

  Weird nevertheless DJW

  How do you accurately define who wants what concerning the death penalty when human orchestrated crimes vary so much from one to another ?

  So the ending reality to what happened to Jerusalem and the surrounding area is that it was under servitude for almost 70 years by the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar but was only laid desolate for approximately 47 +/- a couple of years after he finally destroyed much of the city including the main temple in 586 BCE, captivating much of the predominant inhabitants to Babylon.

  There are we all happy now ?

  The WTS's dating of Jerusalem's destruction in 607 BCE has little or no background support from various confirmed sources including the bible.

  Turn the page and move on .

  Sorry cant agree with this poll
  

  You cant honesty make a suggestive statement like that with single brush stroke over all atheists or either Christians.

  ie. I'm a atheist and I'm for the death penalty under certain circumstances.

  This poll sucks and I wouldn't put much validity to it.

  The holy temple of Capitalism.

  Its busy noisy and polluted just like most big cities and very expensive to live there.

  Worth a visit once I think but I wouldn't want to live there.
