  Why is it so easy to summon the Demons?

  by LyinEyes in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was thinking about this the other day, and really things just don't make sense to me since leaving the borg.

  being jw's we are told to fear the demons, they are there just to get us away from god.

  don't buy from yard sales, don't watch demonized movies, don't look at porn because demons love that.

  The WT's Greatest Blasphemy

  by blackguard in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hi guys, this belongs with the original post on or about nov 24th, 'watchtower roots'.. the watch tower's greatest blasphemy.

  since his corporate coup d'etat after russell's demise.

  rutherford had been busily fine tuning his fifth columnist mystical machinery.

  Nothing new; the congregation one is attending, and the one in which there may be many family members or to where one has a certain attachment etc.

  Pretty much like as the case of the Crop Circles, isn't it? Even if a few half-drunk (as in the ill-famous TV-interview) guys have admitted to producing a few circles, it doesn't account for all of them.

  As I seem to recall, the "real" Americans also had stories about giants living in dense forests, much like the Bigfoot.

  New Literature No Longer Announced in km!

  by GermanXJW in

  1. social
  2. current

  at least the german edition of "our kingdom ministry" says that new literature is no longer announced in the km.

  instead there will be a letter from the society that is read and shown at the announcement board.. maybe they want to use the space in the km for other things.

  or they just want keep those informed that attend meetings.

  And because the Ministry School book is aiming at training people for delivering speeches etc., it's only logical that it is available only to those attending the school, isn't it? I see nothing subversive therein.

  The km thing must be a Germany only thing, as nothing has been said or written in other countries about it.

  by watchtower correspondant in japan (alligator wisdom)

  of course, you'll know what the real reason is for this.

  Different countries - different practices. In my country, we can deduct the amount we donate to the congregation, from the taxes we pay. It's tax deductable.

  And the government / state supports the branch in donating some 20-30$ per head connected with the congregation either thru baptism or thru birth.

  things i saw as a jw:.

  * the "f" word spelled out on the information board in the back of the hall.

  the person used the tacks used for posting letters and talks and spelled out the expletive.

  I forgot: The PO, a special pioneer held in high esteem by the Society, stating that all mosquitos have to be offspring of the ones created by Pharao's sorcerers back in Moses' days, because God would never have created anything that thrives on blood.
