It costs a lot of money to orchestrate a hurricane and paying some big government to pull it off so you can have some sand blown in and then say god did it for you. Common people there’s no cover up here!

Great Sell-Off is for the Expansion Work in Africa
by HiddenPimo inthey say this sell off is for the need to build more kh.
however the branch accounting video that was leaked shows otherwise.. is there a way to find out how many halls are constructed in africa and other places to show the money trail is to pay for child abuse cases and not new halls.?.

I’m glad to see the Salvation Army seems to be doing well, my family left this good church to join the JWs cult. And they call me crazy.

I think this can be said about all religions and cults. People are in them and want to be in them do to social reasons more then anything else. One prime example is my oldest boy. I had pretty much woken him up to ttatt and religion in general. I was careful not to share to much in an apostate way just facts , history etc about the cult and then some info about how paganism came into Christianity. He was about to a non believer saying that gods were just made up etc.
Then came the influences of the people from his congregation first a fishing friend then an elder takes him out on his boat then of course all the gatherings then in time a couple more friends he has things in common with. Out the door goes anything non JW and now he’s a believer and his dad his just an apostate.
The rest of the family is the same way, it’s about the friends and the gatherings etc.. It reminds me of the cooking a frog illustration where one puts the frog in normal temp water and slowly turns it up. Before you know it the frog is dinner. So sad that the people can be brainwashed so easily. A rabbi once said “ give me the boy until he’s 9 and I’ll give you the man”.

Slavery - ancient
by joey jojo ini have been listening to podcasts by dan carlin and his excellent series on persia and the spartans, called king of kings.. its a refreshing way to hear unbiased accounts of history, untainted by religious beliefs.. a part of the podcast dealt with the jews but it put into perspective their place in world history and events.
pretty much just another tribe- sometimes rebellious, allowed to exist under the rule of a major power, allowed to worship their own gods exactly like the other tribes around them.. another part that caught my interest was the account of slavery and it made me think about the way wt and other christian religions have tried to reconcile the idea that it was ok in those days for jews to own slaves because they had laws to protect the slaves.. the podcast made me realise a lot of apologists of slavery obviously forget how a person becomes a slave in the first place.
apologists like wt say it was ok because it was part of the economy and the way life was, which totally skips over the important part.. after a war, when most of the men were killed or wounded on the battlefield by the winning side, whoever was left, men, women and preferably young virgins, were taken back to the homeland of the victors and sold at the slave markets.

One important note, it doesn’t look like any Yahweh worshipper had slaves because they always lost.
Slavery is disgusting and one of the reasons why the Bible is not any god I want to worships book.

I love it That JW`s Worship A God Named by The Catholics ,And Follow The Bible Of the protestants .
by smiddy3 inthe tetagrammaton 4 hebrew letters representing gods name in the hebrew scriptures as jhvh or more likely yhwh .. the name jehovah was unheard of before the 13th century simply because no one beforehand had added vowels to those four hebrew consonants representing gods name .. and then comes along a spanish catholic monk of the 13th century that adds vowels to those 4 hebrew consonants and he comes up with the name jehovah.. a name that the catholic church has used in and on churches since the 13th century throughout europe and elsewhere in the world.. and lo and behold the g.b.of jehovah`s witnesses in their wisdom stated in the first edition of the "aid to bible understanding" that they chose the name jehovah as the correct pronunciation of gods name because it was the most popular name in use in the world ?
logically by christendom `s religions ,who else ?.
then their is the bible cannon that all of the major christian religions have different books that they feel should make up the bible.. protestant religions .

So true ,Smiddy! It’s a books full of writings from all over the levant put together first by the Greeks then the Roman Catholics changed and changed again then in 1611 a English version is put out called the King James yet its changed again by 1638. The Bible is a shit show of stupid stories and ideas that don’t even make sense with contradictions galore.

Iran vs. Israel - could it be the beginning of Armageddon?
by tartarus ini have recently read in the news that an attack on iran is planned sometime after the olympics in beijing.
here's a bit of background to it:.
when irans fledgling democracy was overthrown with support of cia the shah of iran was giving israel free oil thru a pipeline that still runs thru saudi arabia to a refinery in the israeli city of haifa.

At every former battle fought at Armageddon the Israelites or Jews lost.

If King of North/South was true, would it be about Islam?
by Bad_Wolf inreading it in daniel 11, especially towards the end, 11:40-45, if king of the north would be christianity/usa/jews(if they do control usa), and king of the south, islam.
in those end the king of the south is mainly an irritant.
not much power, and the king of the north has big armies and power, so overtakes the middle east.

The book was written closer to the 1st century and was about the two of the Greek empires that were created after the death of Alexander.

Congregation memorial stats
by nowwhat? in2 congregations met together attendance 355 which is close to exact number of combined publishers.
only saw a couple of new faces.
so it looks like once again the invitation work was a complete failure and relatives of jw's couldn't be talked into coming anymore!.

Went to a assembly building for memorial but they always change up what and how many congregations go every year so there’s no way to tell real numbers. I did notice a lot of young men and woman that looked like they were only there because of pestering by parents. A lot of bearded men.

The way his family has reacted to you is an example of what JWs are like. It hurts like hell now but you’ll realize it’s the best for you not to date someone in a cult, it doesn’t end well.
