  I was at the district convention in 1976, Fred Franz was there. He shook his finger at the audience, and he said, “I’ll tell you why nothing happened. (1975). It’s because YOU wanted something to happen.” He blamed the rank and file! I remember thinking to myself what a liar and a douche bag he was.

  What Does the WTS say is the mark for survival of Armaggeddon--Baptism

  if you have not yet come to know and to accept as a way of life the righteous decrees of jehovah, you have no time to lose.

  you must act quickly if you are to stand before jehovah’s executional forces with the mark of true christian identification.

  This sounds like a desperate attempt to rope in the young kids, for sure. Trap em young.

  When did WT recently change the Insight on the Scriptures -- that 31 year old Bible encyclopedia?

  i would like to pinpoint when watchtower made a dramatic backward editorial change in their 31 year old insight on the scriptures, their flagship bible encyclopedia.

  below, number 1 quotes the insight book as it appeared in the original release back in june 1988.. 1.

  “this is also illustrated by what happened to the cities of sodom and gomorrah and their inhabitants.

  National Siblings Day

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as has been mentioned, jws on social media seem to go overboard for the whole sibling day bandwagon, like they're so thrilled to participate in a holiday of sorts that hasn't yet been explicitly forbid that it's pathetic.

  so, it's okay to honor your brother and sister on a certain day, but it's wrong and pagan to honor your father and mother on a certain day, something that the bible specifically says to do?

  has anybody ever called them out on this, or seen someone else do it?

  Stan livedeath, we have the same things in the inner cities of the US. It’s a shame, and a complex problem. I think these young people have no hope for a better life, so decide to live off the system.

  Going To The Meetings To Give A Witness

  by Brokeback Watchtower in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  e tricki've been tossing around the idea of perhaps going to a meeting in the future just to check things out i'm in no hurry this could happen months or years from now.

  i would like to give them a witness about some of the problems i see as a newly interested person checking things out.

  maybe just hanging back after coming to the meeting late and casually talking with people as a non pushy interested in what going on after some internet search led me to jw.org.

  after enduring years of secrecy and betrayal, shelly rose braieoux finally dug deep within herself and picked up the phone.. key points:.

  shelly braieoux said jehovah's witnesses elders failed to face up to her abuse allegations.

  she said she felt like god would strike her down when she cut ties with the church.

  this is a follow-on to my earlier post 'the slain of jehovah'.

  so we're sat in a cafe with my old friend of over 40 years, together with his wife.

  actually, it's 50 years.

  i think i’m going insane.... i’m 17 years old and being raised in a jw household.

  i really want friends and a boyfriend but i can’t have that because my parents are jw and i’m also homeschooled.

  they are those jw parents that refuse to let me go to public school because of bad influences.

  Someone “disliked” my comment...I was trying to see if I could offer shelter to her, or other assistance...if she was near me. In other words, in the Midwest USA.
