however good certain religious principles may or may not be, there seems to be complete insanity that only religion breeds.. a buddhist monk in thailand has apparently chopped off his own head to give himself 'good luck' in the afterlife.. .

Yes it does, mostly due to the fact that all religions in one way or another were devised by fictional mythological story telling based from human ignorance .
Some are more structured to be more unaccepted to known reality derived from evidence of truth and knowledge, creating in its place fear, superstition and ignorance.
the past two weeks several ufo sightings.
navy and pentagon confirm sightings.
us military is worried because the technology being used to drive these air vehicles are showing no signs of any sort of jet fuel.
As far as the JWS go and aliens they dont exist, no life outside planet earth exists accept spirits in heaven and oh yes god..
Science tells us that there very well be life as we know it on other planets since there are 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 planets in our observable Universe.
That being so let us not be presumptuous to think that no other planet in the universe has any kind of life.
Whether they have the capability to build rocket ships to move about the universe or even break through are own atmosphere without burning up is another question .

I wouldn't encourage any interaction with JWorg. not unless you enjoy single minded lies and corruption by men who are self avowed to be that way for their own sake.
In case it hasn't be accepted yet this is dangerous killing religious cult that's built up through lies, ignorance and fear.
i can't believe william shatner is 90 years old but doesn't look like other 90 year olds that i've met.
is it genetic?

I guess money is more important than upholding doctrines.
This whole affair of the Australian JWS being exposed in hiding pedophilia within their organization has surely blacked the image of the JWS in that country.
Good, I hope this happens in other countries as well.
The stated amount of millions coming in and being off shored by the WTS there tells much of the inner workings of the WTS.
Power and money corrupts and sometimes you can see this happen in religious organizations too.
so, in the uk, during the early stages of covid there was a groundswell of appreciation for the nhs for their front-line sacrifice.
this was crystallised into a regular clapping/whistling/noise making session every thursday at 8pm.. "harmless" you would have thought, "a gesture of appreciation", "what could possibly be wrong with joining in on that innocent activity?".
well, the co during his recent rounds had a different view.
Those of us who did it should be ashamed of ourselves.
The background reason which spurred this on was due to the fact these health care workers were putting their own life on the line to help people who got direly sick from Covid.
A few of these workers actually got infected with the virus themselves and died because of that.
This is just another indication or instance of the self identifying perception of power JWS (Elder) men build up around themselves, they are inundated with god almighty spirit you know.
Having the power to judge others is a grand thing, even if it is recklessly stupid.

They would probably try to start a bible study and place some literature with the aliens.
They would tell the aliens that if they didn't convert and become loyal to the Watchtower Corporation/JWorg. that Jah would soon destroy them turning them into fried and burnt wieners .

women, obedient to headship.
wt message to wt ladies: do like abigail, ignore your husband's initiative, who might have had his own strategy to rid the country of the marauding outlaws for good, and instead kowtow to "the anointed" aka us, the gb and elders.
In ancient Hebrew times woman were seen as bought and paid for chattel, they were more or less made to be subservient slaves toward men, they weren't even allowed to speak inside a temple.
Organized religion like the JWS is just another social structure of power and control for men.

If they dont want to obey world government laws than slap with penalties.
Lets face it the WTS/JWS doesn't like to be told how to operate their organization, even in regards toward protecting children from sex abuse.
The Australian government has their eye on them.
i have been in several congregations over the years.
the hypocrisy was staggering.
so many of these idiots were fake jws.some were strict followers and were as annoying as could be.
Of course there is differences in personality and behavior among practicing JWS but one thing they all hold to them all is their inherent hypocrisy.
