Perry, you are just like the WT. Why doesn't your thread title contain the words "in Africa"?

Interesting experience while protesting at district conventions

by theron ware in

for three weekends this summer, a friend and i protested outside district assemblies being held in the tucson convention center.

our approach was very low key and completely non-confrontational: we just held our posters and smiled.

this was our experience at the first two assemblies (for the third assembly, see the next paragraph).

So the JW's haul out a cart full of literature and stand by it doing their street witnessing, what do you think their reaction would be if a group of men stood in front of them like this blocking the view, moving left or right if they did?

If you were to protest an Assembly what would you put on your placard ?

by Finkelstein in

since this topic of protesting assemblies recently came up, i was wondering .

what would be the some of the most proficient and perhaps strongest message.

to place on a placard to show as the people arrived at the venue.

Inspired by someone elses post, I would put "Religion is a Snare and a Racket...think about it!"

Just imagine the money to be made, everyone will have to have a least one. Some will probably "forget" to donate, but even so the take will be huge.

NINE REVERSALS IN JULY 15TH WATCHTOWER

by The Searcher in

here's what i scavenged from the most notable watchtower i've ever read.

it may be far more significant than many people realise!.

and before anyone whinges that one or two are 'old light', the fact remains that all of them are rejecting what was once 'inspired truth' from the revered fds, and disagreeing with any one of these (now current) falsehoods would have resulted in your "stoning to death" and shunning by all whom you loved.

A SERIOUS investigation of the identifying date of CHRIST'S RETURN

by Terry in

step one.

the foot of the ladder can be moved closer or farther from the wall.. the closer to the wall the higher the ladder reaches.. but, the length of the ladder never changes.. .

height is a function of the angle created when you scoot the base closer or farther from the wall.. .

For the sake of accuracy, I just thought I should mention it's 587 (or 586) and not 537.

I read that someone who was recently at Bethel said that the literature they recieved was destroyed. It also seems there is a letter to the elder body concerning this. Does anyone have any info about this?
