  https://youtu.be/gt0cuez3emy?si=wur7afqwryddqgnt.

  the new watchtower study edition is out and i have a bone to pick with the watchtower with paragraph 14 from study article 14. there we read: "we want to help clear jehovah’s name of all reproach.

  consider this scenario: you have a close friend who is kind, generous, and forgiving.

  The Beards and pants sect still creates it's enemies to keep their people inside.

  They will NEVER change.

  In 1989 I told you the SED won the DDR elections. Today I tell you every European country has an increase of JW.

  Chu was already higher educated when she worked for NYT and was asked to come over to work for JW headquarters.

  She did research the WW2 subject then.

  Watchtower was more liberal in the 90's and later on Jaracz closed the windows.

  Reddit thread - ‘Organization Finally Suggesting to Plan for Retirement’

  by LongHairGal in

  this information is supposed to be in the upcoming march wt.

  (i don’t go on jw dot org).

  it would sound like they are hinting at a change in thinking.. in my opinion, any such change would be yet another slap in the face to faithful pimis along with those other recent changes.. there are so many heartfelt responses on that thread and a lot of justified anger.. don’t know what to say except that i’m so glad i never listened to the religion all those years ago.

  Memory hole, international conspiracy, and the JW international network

  by slimboyfat in

  1. social
  2. current

  can anyone else who was around 15 to 20 years ago remember an odd story about jw missionaries being stopped at the swiss/italian border with american bonds worth billions of dollars in their possession?

  because i can find little to no information about it anywhere online, yet at the time i am sure i recall it being reported by different mainstream news sources, including the bbc.

  why do some news stories seem to disappear from the internet altogether?

  They have a branch in nearly every country.

  I'm thinking about agencies that could use that.
