  i just heard this story from one of my relatives.

  i'm leaving a lot of things out.. a jw couple had three kids and raised them in the religion.

  the oldest one got disfellowshipped at 18 years of age because he committed fornication with a jw girl.

  And they reminded him of how much he made Jehovah Sad

  because he married a worldly woman. They told him those marriages NEVER LAST.

  Really so people who aren't practicing JWS have marriages that never last ?

  I have many relatives that aren't JWS who were happily married for 50, 60 years.

  The fact is within the JWS religion, divorce is just as high as outside of the organization.

  Once again we can see JWs are pressed to lie and profess misinformation to support the Org, a means to show their own personal loyalty.

  7 a merchant might take pride in the fact that he had never taken anything that did not belong to him.

  but what about his business practices?

  There were crooked business people who were active JWS to be sure, they used the pretentious righteousness of the Org, as means to cover over their dirty unscrupulous deeds.

  Jws are truly subservient loyal witnesses to the Watchtower Corporation and its own uniquely expressed doctrines.

  Why would Jesus/Jehovah choose these false prophet apostates as his solemnly chosen earthly organization ?

  Well that's what J Rutherford president of the WTS. said in 1919.
  

  From the WTS's original beginning the leaders of this organization were false prophet charlatans promoting their own published pieces of literature to the public.

  "Jesus has returned, this system of things is to come to a close very soon " was pretty engaging stuff for religious publishers to sell and promote. .

  Do Jehovah's Witnesses interpret the Bible properly?

  do jehovah's witnesses interpret the bible properly?.

  jehovah's witnesses see the bible as an organizational book which only the faithful and discreet slave (currently 8 men headquartered in warwick new york) can interpret properly.

  the faithful slave was first appointed in brooklyn in 1919 and given the exclusive right and ability to understand and teach the bible properly.

  The JWS interpret the bible to suit and support their own doctrines with bias and selectivity.

  if the end is so near as the jehovah’s witnesses leadership claims (somehow they must have special insight), why are they building a movie studio that will be finished in 2026?.

  it’s not the first time something of this nature has happened in the society’s history.

  You have to keep in mind that "The Last Days" is a marketing tool the WTS unitizes to drawn attention to itself and its published literature, has been doing so for over 140 years.
  

  Now the inter net is here the WTS is going to use it to do its propaganda dramas with this new technology.

  Videos being piped to Kingdom Halls that have large monitors at the front stage are the target agenda.
  

  A new way to spread its doctrines of fear and coercion, the old ways of literature publishing have now past away.

  The JWS is a marketing commercialized religion, just recently marketing itself on the Net because its cheap and efficient.

  When they show these produced dramas/videos at the Kingdom Halls and Assembly Halls. they will be announced as special programs.

  Bring your own popcorn, drinks and candy folks.

  In reality JWS are a blend of Judeo-Christian practices, not really strong in ether select theologies, kind of like a do it yourself home kit for novices.

  But then again, this new fascism comes from the Left,

  Ha ha.... thanks for laugh, Fascism now well who would have thought.

  No no its comi-fascism.
  

  Just because a new law is introduced that you don't like or agree with it automatically gets labeled fascism.

  Funny

  I've used new/latest battery operated leaf blowers and lawnmowers at my friends place and they work fine.

  Admitiably they wouldn't be usable for large commercial work.
