Ever since 911 the GB have been concerned about the hoards of walking dead that would be busting down the doors of jah's arc in Brooklyn. Spain has nightmares about this.
The countryside compound will be much safer.
really it's about the $$$$$$$
as most of us know, the society is spending 10's of millions of dollars on a giant, state of the art, secluded bunker country club headquarters in very remote, isolated warwick ny.. the question that "some" have is, why?
if armageddon is coming "very soon", why go to all that time & effort & expense?
why have thousands of jws dedicating their time to this massive effort instead of the "lifesaving ministry"?.

"the watchtower of october 1, 1909, said: all who cut loose from the society and its work, instead of prospering themselves or upbuilding others in the faith and in the graces of the spirit, seemingly do the reverseattempt injury to the cause they once served, and, with more or less noise,gradually sink into oblivion, harming only themselves and others possessed of a similarly contentious spirit.
.they seem inoculated with madness, satanic hydrophobia [rabies].

The Watchtower, recycling the same crap for over 100 years.
i was reading an article where it said that weeding rings and the brides vail come from pagan origins,... who have any more?,please post.
The wedding cake is of pagan origin related to fertility rights.
i had two close friends in the org.
one is in her early thirties and got married last year and the other one is single and in her late twenties.
after reading coc, i couldn't help but feel sad at how ray and his wife felt regret at putting the religion first and not having any children.
The following quote if from the book Children published in 1941 by the Watchtower.
"No children were taken on Noah's ark or were born on the ark...this would show it to be proper to wait until after Armegedon to bring children into this world...it is only a few years from the time the other sheep are gathered to the Lord, until Armagedon...those who have infants during Armagedon will have much greater woe...it would be a far greater difficulty to care for them during the great tribulation..." Children book 1941 p.281
Many of the JWs who took to heart these statements are now dead.
we bought 2. loved them.
worked as advertised... for about a month.
first one developed a big bulge and popped.
Crap, I learned years ago not to purchase products under the pressure of water that are made of plastic. My wife purchased two of these becuase of the light weight and they both broke within 60 days.
.....it seems like the human race is in the process of solving it's own problems......isn't it?
god is doing what exactly?
god seems rather want to show his boat race about this planet any more.
It's a useful tool for the ruling class to control the masses.
this may be a weird request but it helps keep my identity, and ip address anonymous.
i need someone to help me email a copy of cofc pdf to a few jdubs i know.
i plan on sending it to people i feel are on the fence and need a little shove to get them started.
Does anyone know of a good proxy server that would spoof your real IP location?

Hi Kate, Sorry to hear about your seizure coming back.
My youngest son had seizures for several years. When he had his first seizure he was about 6 years old. I was a JW but at the time separated from my JW wife and not attending meetings.
The elders suggested to my wife that his seizures were most likely demon attacks because I was not being loyal to Jehovah at the time. They used the scritpure in Mathew where the boy had seizures and was demon possessed to back up their claim. We did find some medications that did a good job of combatting those demons.
There are some good medications to help with this so visit your doctor if you havent in awhile.
All the best.
ever notice how completely out of touch some (most?
) public speakers are?.
last week we had a speaker ramble on for fully 1/3, maybe 1/2, of his 30 minute talk on the evils of "rap music".. i don't believe the term "rap music" has been uttered by anyone under the age of 40 for at least 20-25 years.. this week we got another "older gentleman" warning us about the pervasive dangers of "internet chat rooms".. again - didn't "chat rooms" die out about the same time as dialing up to connect to aol?.
Yet if you use antiquated WT terms you will be quickly counseled by some uber jw. Try these term and watch the reaction
New Order or New World Order
Jehovah's Christian witnesses
the committee assigned to build the new complex was called into a meeting with the governing body.
they were told " you finish this project by january 1 2017. we want the keys to the complex and will be headquartered there by that date, do you understand?".
when the brothers protested and said that it would take 6 years for the project to be complete and if they moved that fast there would be many mistakes, the gb responded, "we don't care, that is your deadline".
I seem to remember from when WT first purchased the property that there was another owner or potential owner who backed out because of nickle contamination in the soil from a previous WWII factory at that location and there were some cost issues to abate the contamination.
On that it would be nice to see the EPA get involved and slow down the project!
I know someone who lives in Warwick but can't call them for details since I am an evil apostate. I was told by this person once that the town is so picky about thier image they wouldn't allow mcdonads to build there.
If the no preaching is true, the local congregation would have to know at some point since they hold the territory maps. Those publishers would have to be told something about not preaching there anymore.
If someone was inclined, they could call some of the city councel memebers and act like a reporter doing a story, ask a few questions about the WT building project and then ask how the city will handle the hundreds of door knockers once they move there. Might be able to get some confirmation directly from the source.
