  Forum Owner and Member Integrity

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  some people recently raised concerns about security of the site relating to whether forum members could be watchtower plants trying to obtain information about people.

  apparently, this was because a previous forum that was setup was either owned by or later handed over to someone who used it to collect personal information about people which was then used to harrass them.

  i don't know all the details, i'm just paraphrasing what i've heard and recognize that it's a concern to some people.. i want to first of all put people's minds at rest: i've been running this site for what will be 13 years next month.

  in the last 4 months my eyes have been opened to ttatt, my biggest issue is that the elders have been grooming me to appoint me as an elder.

  "The Four Presidents of the Watchtower Society"

  by RR in

  2. friends

  this is the new book edited by edmund gruss.

  i just finished reading it and must say a one word description would be "disturbing".

  the book focuses of course on the characters and motivations of the first four presidents of the watchtower society.

  I told the basturds that it was a scam check it out yourselves. I laid the stinkiest fart (silent one) and blamed it on the chairman, You Stink! we took a break to air it out.....I never returned to discuss the matter, been about 2 years ago. I think those basturds are still mad at me....Next step, a legal letter from my attorney......I HOPE HE PUTS SOME OF THE STINKIEST CRAP IN THE ENVELOPE..

  Women: Are they Equal to Men ?

  by villagegirl in

  1. jw

  one of the hard core doctrines of the wt society, and many other religions, is that women are to be in "subjection" to men.. in the bible, in genisis , it says the domination of women by men came after adam and eve disobeyed god.

  eve was cursed by pain in childbirth and that from then on as a curse: "he shall rule over you " from then on the male was to dominate the female.. but that was not in the original plan.

  this was a reversal of the plan and a curse.

  When someone, male, would say anything negative about your mum, fist to the jaw and then some, win or lose, you just can't go there. Why such strong feelings? It was asked to a Prophet: Who deserves your time and affection? 1st your mother, 2nd your mother, 3rd your mother, 4th your father. Heaven is at the feet of your mother! From that point of view, Women get the gold, silver and bronz medal. Man, an honorable tip of the hat....
