Don't ever....ever...EVER forget these came from the FDS and Governing Body

by Terry in

we do well to bear in mind that among the drugs, serums, vaccines, surgical operations, etc., of the medical profession, there is nothing of value save an occasional surgical proceedure.

their so-called "science" grew out of egyptian black magic and has not lost its demonological character.... we shall be in a sad plight when we place the welfare of the race in their hands.

[1] 1. the golden age, aug. 5, 1931, p. 727.. the journal of the a. m. a. is the vilest sheet that passes the united states mail.... nothing new and useful in theraputics escapes its unqualified condemnation.

"you have no idea!

yes, people hate jws!".

this statement was made to me by a jw who had just left a meeting to present the notion that they were the persecuted christians.

They are not imprisoned for their religous beliefs they are in prison for failure to serve in the army as required by law, huge diffence.

5go, why are the other 69,300 Christians incarcerated? It's common knowledge that "Christendom" participates in military forces.

Pyramid - Common Knowledge?

by NeverKnew in

i was telling my extended family (also non-jws) about the pyramid near russell's grave i saw months ago.

i showed them pictures of the four sides and the interesting inscriptions along with the pictures of the founder's grave.. there are a couple of jw women who come to see my cousin every once in a while.

last week, she mentioned the pyramid.

Technically it doesn't have anything to do with "Jehovah's Witnesses". It's the work of the International Bible Students

I understand what you're saying, but respectfully, I disagree. My child has her own life but was born of my womb. Without me, she wouldn't exist.

Good grief. So, tomorrow evening is the start of Tisha B'Av!

Oh, I'm sorry, for those who are not JEWISH, IT'S ONLY THE JUDAIC HOLIDAY OF MOURNING FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF THE TEMPLES.

Scholar,

I don't know about you, but I'm thinking I'd trust that the Jews would have some semblence of knowledge as to the year their own temples were destroyed. I hear that the temples were kind of important to them.

It would require a tremendous heap of arrogance for the WTS and/or their adherents to be telling these people who have mourned this event for THOUSANDS of years that they don't know when it happened. That'd be like telling a New Yorker that 9/11 didn't happen in 2001. (Once you learn what Tisha B'Av means you'll realize how perfect my comparison was - think I just broke my arm patting myself...)

For someone who grew up with close Jewish friends and who knows how important their history is to them and how it's ingrained in them, this whole JW 607BC thing is hilarious. I mean, c'mon... really? Some American dude from the 1800's knew more about Jewish history than the Jews themselves? You'd have to be pretty gullible...

It's late so I sped through the first video. It looks like you put a lot of effort into it and I need to watch more closely.

I'll look at all of them tomorrow, Londo. :)

back in the 90's the Wt. had a letter read to all congregations about not going to russels grave site.

THAT'S dirty. Having my hands on that letter could be priceless... I wonder if that letter is in one of Atlantis' posts.

Data... now THAT'S good....

for many years I held the notion it was only jw religion who were put into the camps by Hitler. The wts never mentioned the hundreds of RC priests who were imprisoned as well.

Aw c'mon Zeb. No way!

This is what must be pushing the persecutory delusion I'm seeing.

Okay, Step 1... check. LOL

Had I known that nobody knew of this, I would have taken pictures with a better quality camera long ago!

I'll take the 15 minute drive out there and add myself to the picture to make it real. :)

Problem is, these JW ladies are visiting my cousins and don't give advance notice.

"You have no idea! Yes, people hate JWs!"

This statement was made to me by a JW who had just left a meeting to present the notion that they were the persecuted Christians. I casually typed "Christians imprisoned in Korea" in my handy-dandy ipad pulled an article and replied,

"You said 700 JWs total? Okay, so, the other 69,300 imprisoned Christians must be non-JWs... " (while pointing to the figure in the article) "We should pray for all of them."

By hanging out here, I'm getting good at finding these gems! :) I just gotta get better at not running folks off. :(

JWs get a very sanitized view of WT history and are very uncomfortable with anyone who wants to look at the details.

I'm trying to plant seeds for awakenings and realizing people are getting really annoyed with those pesky little "details"...

Pretty scary when a several ton granite boulder is a "little detail."

Whoa... then these women who would live less than 20 miles from the founder's gravesite know nothing about the giant pyramid just feet from his grave?

This is amazing. I'll clear this up for my cousins and ask them to get clarification on the statement. Maybe they can... uh... increase the women's awareness.
