  An End (at last) to the Korean War - Well Maybe ?????

  by fulltimestudent in

  the korean war officially commenced on june 25, 1950, of course, it had a back history.

  from 1876, the new meiji government of japan successfully subverted korea's long held attachment to the manchu ruled qing dynasty that had conquered china in the 17th century.

  in 1910 japan occupied korea and attempted to make it part of japan.

  I just recently watched a documentary on the Korean conflict on Netflix ,I had`nt realized how far into North korea the South USA/UN had advanced into North Korea only to be confronted by the Chinese who were afraid they would have been invaded .

  What terrible conditions they all suffered under North ,south and Chinese ?

  GB and Moses—an interesting similarity!

  by Ireneus in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  moses is the symbol of divorcing anyone who acts smarter and exhibits sharper spiritual insight.

  his wife, zipporah, daughter of a pagan midianite priest (exodus 2.15-22), was more spiritual and had keener spiritual insight than moses.

  on one occasion she averted a disaster by acting promptly (by performing the act of circumcision on their son) thus saving moses from being killed by jehovah’s angel which ultimately helped the israelites’ exodus from egypt.

  Moses "supposedly" wrote the first five books of the Bible approximately 2,000 years after the creation of Adam .

  {Maybe nobody knew how to write during those first 2,000 years} .

  Jesus never wrote anything down at all .?

  { You can speculate all you want here }

  The Governing Body / WTB&TS / Jehovah`s Witnesses / I.B.S.A. have been prolific in their writings these past 140 or so years flooding the western Christian world with their literature and having virtually no impact on non Christian lands at all.

  So they have really only preached to about a third of the earths population ,so that means at least two thirds of the worlds population have never heard of Jehovah`s Witnesses or Gods Kingdom.

  And after this 140 or so years the vast majority of all that has been published by this religious organization over all these years has been discarded as "old light" and not believed or preached anymore .

  In other words.. they were .. WRONG .

  WRONG.... a word that Jehovah`s Witnesses have great difficulty saying or admitting too that they were WRONG .

  geoff jackson speaking at a france dedication:.

  then he said (i'm quoting him best i can remember, but you'll get the idea): "imagine if next week i go back to us and you see in the news that the whole gb was arrested for no reason.

  how'd you react?

  As slim says I would like to hear the talk for myself, if it was true surely someone would have it ?

  Somebody else mentioned on Reddit that they had the same talk too at another Assembly ?

  So I`ll wait and see.

  Solar panel government scam...we are doomed global warming Armagedon!!

  by Witness 007 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  we got solar panels after the promise it will slash our bills 70% turns out that was true 6 years ago when my uncle got it the government was paying people for solar power.

  well i just got a letter telling me they slashed the rebate again to 9 cents which means my $5000 investment in solar will take 6 years just to get my money back!

  what a scam my uncles older contract means he pays no power bills for the last 10 years while the new deal screws us totally!

  Ain`t that the truth , ALL governments move the goal posts to screw the average worker and make sure the Govt. and those that prop them up reap the reward.

  I feel for you Bro.

  Not posted for a year because mum died did not want blood.

  by Witness 007 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i posted here weekly until a year ago when my mum died of a mild form of lukemia which is easy to treat with 2 blood tranfusions a month.

  you can live to 100 with treatment, but no my mum chose to die a faithful witness after 2 years of chemo and hell for her family and doctors.

  her chemo doctor cried when she only had weeks left to live knowing that she could be saved with one bag of blood!

  Sheesh Witness 007 what can I say except I`m so sorry you had to go through this as you so rightfully say "what a waste" of life .

  My heart goes out to you my friend in your sorrow. Its criminal that Jehovah`s Witness Governing Body can get away with these sort of Doctrines and go unpunished .

  They are truly Bloodguilty....The trouble is I don`t believe their is a God to mete out punishment and the Authorities are certainly not doing anything about it .

  My condolences to you and your family.

  So sad.

  I suppose it would be too insensitive to have posters and pictures of all who have died as a result of following their medical advice over the years such as no blood ,no organ transplants ,no jabs against diseases ,etc,etc.
