  Breaking news: Update Darkspilver May 6th hearing

  on may 6th, 2019 watch tower attorney paul polidoro faced off against anonymous reddit user darkspilver, represented by eff, the electronic frontier foundation.. link to youtube video with audio from may 6th hearing:.

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wzopjmzfco&feature=youtu.be.

  polidoro, noted for his appearance in the supreme court case of watchtower versus stratton ohio, now represents watch tower of pennsylvania in their efforts to flush out the inside leak sources of documents, videos and images.. these documents and other sensitive information have been leaked to the public and reposted by dozens of individuals since 2017. watch tower is deeply concerned about the internal moles leaking this information, since much of it has been used by whistleblowers to reveal watch tower's private internal policies and procedures.. included in the leaks are publisher id and records management materials which reveal the extent of jehovah's witness data collection and management prodedures, including the destruction of documents.. jehovah's witnesses have come under intense scrutiny for their failure to report child abuse across the globe, not only in mandatory reporting states, but in every location where clergy members are not required to report.. the dangerous policies of the jehovah's witness organization have resulted in a significant movement among current and former members to expose the organization and force transparency.. current members with high-level access to watch tower documents have risked expulsion and legal recourse for their efforts.. the electronic frontier foundation's attorney alex moss represented the unidentified darkspilver redditor in defense of the motion to quash watch tower's subpoena to unmask his identity.. listen closely as both sides make their case, and the judge seeks to understand the issues involved.. freedom of speech versus alleged copyright infringement- you be the judge.

  If Jehovah`s Witnesses have the "TRUTH" why are they trying to punish someone through the law courts that they themselves often state are beholden to Satan the Devil as the GOD of this System of things ,who just passes on what they have either written in their publications or stated over JW.Org programs .

  Jehovah`s Witnesses have been prolific in publishing material about themselves and what they believe by various means for many decades.

  What is it now they want to hide from the general public .?

  JW`s claim to be Bible students have they not read ! ....1 Cor.6 :1-8 ?

  JW.org marks International Women's Day 2019

  for the second year in a row, the org has marked international women's day.

  this time, it's an article that lists most female bible characters in alphabetical order with a brief summary for each, topped by a picture of them in 'empowering' poses.

  rey and captain marvel would be proud lol.. .

  Maybe the writing department haven`t been keeping up with Jehovah`s chariot blondie and still think the Borg is a member of the UN as an NGO and a DPI

  And Judges ch.4 leaves no stone unturned that Deborah was not only a prophetess but also a Judge over Israel and she gave orders to Barak and in vs.9b it says : "for it will be into the hand of a woman that Jehovah will sell Sisera."

  I too would appreciate confirmation of both times the WT/JW`s have published these articles this year and last year .

  Anybody ?

  Will Lawyers Eventually Usurp Absolute Control Over The JW Religion ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have no trouble thinking this is a distinct possibility happening at some future date .more and more the g.b.members are relying on lawyers to get them out of tight spots that the g.b.

  and the fact that they need lawyers to get them out of.. gradually and by stealth with making little in-roads here and there in gaining some measure of control in modifying doctrines to keep the religion one step ahead of the law ,they eventually manipulate events whereby they can take full control over the religion and oust the remaining g.b.members as apostates or whatever and take full control over the jehovah`s witness empire for themselves .. what do you think ?.

  a possibility ?.

  by minimus in

  witnesses brag about their brotherhood and incredible love that exists within the organization.

  they say they are really the only true religion.

  is the jw religion the closest thing to jesus christ himself?.

  The Worst Thing About Jehovah’s Witnesses?

  As a religion ? Is that they exist ,

  Its a death dealing religion as far as their No Blood policy is concerned .

  And it breaks up families in untold numbers.

  It preys on the vulnerable and offers false hopes .

  It causes division in a multi-cultural society

  And it spreads hatred towards all those who have different beliefs to themselves as being enslaved by the Devils teachings ,because "the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one" Satan the devil. except Jehovah`s witnesses .

  Corporal punishment

  so i just finished watching the latest cedars video on spanking children.

  i like lloyd, and think that overall he does a good job covering issues in his videos.

  but i've gotta disagree with him on this issue, to a point.. i don't agree with beating your children, but i do believe in spanking, when appropriate.

  Maybe I`m old school ,I got spanked a few times when i was young not beaten but spanked and it never did me any harm and I certainly loved my parents and never had any ill feelings toward them for the spanking i deserved .

  I have also been frustrated seeing young parents in supermarkets when young children are going through tantrums and the parent is trying to reason with them that what they are doing is wrong and its not getting through to the kid and I feel like saying to them just give him a kick up the arse ( meaning a spanking or two ) and that will fix them.

  i was going through my old files and came upon an email between some family that i was privy to.

  it is about the nwt bible and alex trebek asking what is the most accurate bible, etc.

  i am copying and pasting this (for nathan natas...) so he will have so fun data to carry with him with that jw bible as he goes door-to-door.

  Sir82 asking those questions you would more than likely be told a lie saying they did see it or saw a recording of it ,however they can`t remember when it was recorded because it was such a long time ago.

  Its called Theocratic warfare
