  The second verse of Pink Floyd - Wish you were here often comes to mind after consuming a few medicinal ales -

  Did they get you to trade
  Your heroes for ghosts?
  Hot ashes for dreams?
  Hot air for a cool breeze?
  Cold comfort for change?
  Did you exchange
  A walk on part in the war
  For a lead role in a cage?

  Glug glug glug, ah... peace and comfort for now.

  The Seven Trumpets

  by Jehovah lol in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  is it still watchtower dogma that the seven trumpets of revelation refer to seven conventions in the 1920s?

  would many jws these days even be aware of this?

  i find it so amusing that seven little conventions in the distant past, almost a century ago, could be equated with such an iconic biblical passage.

  How to disorder a JW (family) chat

  by Gorbatchov in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we all know the moment that a nice family chat is moving to the propaganda game.. sister in law saying that jw.org is the highest ranked website, cousing saying that the new hq is energy neutral, aunt stating that jw have the best education.... what can we say on these moments?.

  that br splane just likes these new light ideas?.

  that a jw.org video stated that jw use the name jehovah because people recognize this name?.

  by ILoveTTATT2 in

  two people dead and 7 injured in what is apparently a terrorist attack in finland.

  one of the deceased was a jehovah´s witness woman who was preaching in the square.. where was jehovah protecting her?

  especially considering she was preaching?https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/finnish-police-stabbing-investigated-as-possible-terrorism/2017/08/19/187a034e-84b8-11e7-9e7a-20fa8d7a0db6_story.html?utm_term=.f596f9250d70.

  Just another example of proof that the dogma of political correctness and multiculturalism at any cost is lethal.

  Yet another battle in the war that only one side admits is being waged.

  Have you noticed this trend on social media amongst witnesses...?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  it seems that every 2nd witness often posts pictures of themselves at conventions, or out in 'service'.

  but i have noticed that they never seem to post anything about the actual "spiritual content" of their activity!

  instead, it is pictures of them with their witness "friends", along with some contrite comment like #bestlifeever (arrghhh).

  There is a new name for this - Virtue signalling is the conspicuous expression of moral values done primarily with the intent of enhancing standing within a social group. The term was first used in signalling theory, to describe any behavior that could be used to signal virtue—especially piety among the religious.

  Pale.Emperor "Religion of peace strikes again!

  Paris does seem to be getting a lot more than the rest of Europe."

  Good reason for that - France has a muslim population somewhere around 10% (they are not disclosing the real figure).

  Islamic Countries are Like the Slow Kid in Class

  by cofty in

  1. social
  2. current

  according to the council on foreign relations’ global conflict tracker, now that there is peace in colombia, there remain only six civil wars in the world.

  five of those are in islamic nations.

  similarly, all four of the current sectarian wars involve islamic groups, and all five of the ongoing transnational terrorism conflicts involve militant islamic groups.

  It's pretty hard to put a positive spin on that. I would be moving out of that neighborhood real quick before the property values plummet.

  Something that you won't read in the WT - "If you were going to deliberately design a combination of memes with the purpose of making a memeplex that could eventually dominate the world — one that would eventually out-compete every other memeplex — you would be hard-pressed to do better than Islam."

  Good reading - http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2007/10/terrifying-brilliance-of-islamic.html?zx=a24649803d6f764a

  Jehovahs Witnesses and Babylon The Great.Why the Emphasis on the R.C.Church and not on Islam.

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was thinking back to when the book babylon the great has fallen gods kingdom rules.was published many years ago when it was believed religion was declining in the world.. the book took exception to the r.c.church as the worst of christendom substituting themselves for the kingdom of god on earth , the counterfeit kingdom i think they called them.vicar of christ on earth.. and while its true to some degree in western lands today that religion is declining as regards christendom it is not happening in non christian religions around the world.. which brings me to the unprcedented rise and spread of islam in the world today .. with the war in iraq ,syria ,etc,and the people fleeing these war torn countries to europe and elsewhere around the globe with refugees and asylum seekers the spread of islam in the short space of time now beats any missionary projects conducted by christendom.. judaism ,christendom and islam all have their roots in the bible.the jews first then christians then muslims.. the bible only relates to the first two jews and christians and is completely silent about muslims.even in prophecy.. the book mentioned earlier btggkr nowhere mentions islam or muslims.as if they didnt even exist ,yet today they equal in numbers to all of christendoms religions.. islam today is by far a greater threat to christianity and especially to jehovahs witnesses than anything the roman catholic church ever posed before.. obviously the holy bible and the holy spirit or jehovahs chosen people the jehovahs witnesses never did forsee the rise and influence of the religion of islam in todays world.. the bible is completely silent about islam or the rise of muslims on the world stage.. could it be that they could no more predict the future than i could ?.

  the wtb&ts the publishing house of jehovahs witnesses have for the past 100 years have continually attacked the roman catholic religion and portrayed them in an unfavourable light.time after time in mags and books,.

  how many times have the wtb&ts attacked and challenged the religion of islam and muslims and condemned them as a principle member of babylon the great the empire of false religion.. to this day jehovahs witnesses cannot freely go door to door preaching their message in muslim dominated countries where proselytism is forbidden.

  Hi Smiddy, I'm new here, just signed up because I think that this is a big issue that does not get near enough discussion, blind Freddy could see that this truly is the elephant in the room.

  I have wondered about this for years and have not reached many conclusions, one thing for sure is that all of the "company men" have no idea about the true nature, teachings and goals of islam (I wont use a capital I).

  One thing for sure is that they are dead scared to mention the topic.
