Yes, of course, they have all graduated from the higher education that is available from reading and studying the Watchtower and Awake magazines as well as the many now defunct bound Volumes of WT`s and hardcover books that have now been deemed as "Old Truths"

However the Academic Qualifications of the GB are without parallel

We all know that the WTS has some nasty teachings but most followers are harmless and now are facing persecution and problems in everyday life due to state sponsored discrimination.

fair enough point taken :

However the message Jehovah`s Witnesses take to the Russian people is abandon your hope and trust and support in your government and all the benefits you get from this Government that you currently rely upon ,whether it be health care ,age care ,pensions etc,etc,and so on .And be neutral in the conflicts of war efforts and politics.

Put your trust and hope in Jehovah`s kingdom of Christ Jesus guaranteed to you by the American based religion of Jehovah`s Witnesses .

Do you see where I am going with this post ?

Think about it.

The average JW are just pawns in the bigger scheme of things.

How Rutherford did a backflip (flop) off the Great Pyramid

by TerryWalstrom in

in 1924, judge rutherford published an article which referred to the great pyramid as "the scientific bible" and added that measurements on the grand gallery inside the great pyramid confirmed the dates 1874, 1914 and 1925.. 1925 was the famous blowout date for the return of "ancient worthies" about which the judge said, "i made an ass of myself.".

just four years later, rutherford did one of his famous about-face reversals.. whereas previously the watchtower had taught that the great pyramid was probably built by melchizedek, or shem;*.

rutherford now said the great pyramid was constructed "under the direction of satan the devil.

Simply because Jw`s re-interpret / revise their early history ,leave out the embarrassing / incriminating stuff the majority of JW`s nowadays have no Idea about the absurd teachings that were accepted as Divine truth in Russell``s and Rutherford`s days.

How many JW`s today know that the organization believed and taught in their publications that 6000 years of human history ended in the late 1800`s and that the 7th day began back then before 1914 .?

How many know about their belief in Pyramidology and their connecting it to Bible scriptures and prophecy and taught it as "Truth"

How gullible people are who believe in " past truths" .."present truths" and ..."future truths" when the nu-lite is revealed rationalising how past "truths" failed to come true or materialise .

"The purpose of reporting field service time is for encouragement"

by HereIgo in

i was told this when i was an aspiring jw, aka unbaptized publisher.

the above explanation didn't make sense to me then and it never did make sense throughout my jw career.

over time, it appeared to me the real purpose of field service time reporting was to gauge one's spirituality and for the ceo *cough* co to make sure the elders were on top of things during his visit..

S3: correction, only .016 % of jws are content with the [symbolic] blood of JC, by accepting it as partakers. The vast majority reject even that symbol, the wine. hopefully one day soon, they will reject it all.

I stand corrected waton ,we can only hope.
