  Watchtower online religion.

  by asp59 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  should we refer watchtower as to a online religion now?

  i mean we could discuss if they ever return to kingdom hall's in the future.

  if most of them haven't been sold.

  Can you give country, city? We know some can't be too specific. Old hall or one that should be replaced anyway?

  Spencer Larson JW singer - Psycho Chick

  here's another singer who's done a bunch of jw broadcasting original songs, and you'll probably recognize his face from the wt chorus (his voice is very recognizable i.e.

  he sings through his nose terribly).

  anyways check out this extremely cringe song of his, psycho chick:.

  Aside from being wrong age group to like whatever genre that is, the lyrics seem to be from the same writer as the " new original songs".

  He ought to stick with preschooler songs.

  Australia's Religious Discrimination Act.

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is an interesting and intriguing new law (or, it will be if enacted in its present form).. quote: "the proposed new religious discrimination act is intended to prevent a person from being discriminated against on the basis of their religion.".

  fair enough, but to get it through the house of representatives last night, the government accepted some changes.. the first draft (discussed last night) had a clause that may have impacted the rights of some gay and/or trans-sexual students at religious schools by allowing a religious school to expel such a student.

  last night the government was forced to accept changes that removed that possibility.

  This part of the woke crap. You will be told what to believe, have an assigned religion (government approvedz) and be forced to admit womrn are trapped in male bodies and men can get pregnant.

  It is all conspiracy theories. They edited for time. Just like they rewrote literature to keep the pages neat.

  I swear a few talks have a photo shopped head on a trim body instead of the corpulent reality.

  JW’s and Charity Organizations

  by longgone in

  2. beliefs

  i was wondering if anyone is aware of the jw’s in general being involved financially and/or as volunteers in charity organizations?

  i was a born in jw for 56 years and left in 2016. as far as i remember there was never any encouragement to help in the community in any way.

  including soup kitchens, tutoring at schools, united way, etc.

  People dont need hospitals, blankets, shelter, food. They need watchtowers.

  I have heard it likened to giving jehovahs due to the world.

  Here (USA, midwest- mountain) I have heard no one want to go back. Not pioneers or other bona fide ones.

  Let any if us say we think the end is not imminent and see what happens. I had my doubts in 75 because they are never right.

  Righteousness According To Watchtower

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  take a look at this heresy:"righteousness is the state of being right with god by complying with his standards of good and bad.

  "- the watchtower—study edition | july 15, 2001 | blessings are for the righteous onewow!

  my bible says in several places that "there is no one righteous, no not one".

  Contrast ( self,) righteous and good. A CO I think gave a talk on it. I, my dad, brothers never have been righteous but all were and are good.

  Complying with Gods standards is not bad; but they really mean .org standards.

  There is still a local arrangement. If halls sell it will break that down. The more they produce videos will work to it.

  They will still need the local enforcers if the new studio thing gets built.

  our talk was a stern thing about cutting off, not even answering phone.

  they trotted out david and family sterling examples .

  i dont know if this was a response to recent troubles in families with possible human interactions; or a " the whipping will continue until" talk required by the loving org.
