Governing Body MUST change the name!!
by The Searcher inunless all of the following scriptures are being taken out of context, it appears that the present day gb should "be at it urgently", and re-name our christian denomination pretty quickly.
otherwise, by claiming to be god's sole channel of communication on earth, they are indicting themselves as being 'blind guides' due to their adherence to j.f.
john 5:37 - "the father who sent me has himself borne witness about me.".

Ok, Gojira has used up all her posts for this 24 hr period so she asked me to do it for her.
I need to do a quick, condensed bio so that the topic of the discussion will make sense. Grandma has never had time for our daughter Gojira. The last time Gojira & her Hubby went over to Az they asked her to go to breakfast with them Sat morning. Couldn't, service is more important. Gojira fixed a family dinner the time before that and G'ma couldn't make it because she had to have a massage. So sweet Gojira has had her heart broken by this woman for 29 yrs. Gojira wrote her a nice respectful letter, about a month ago, asking her what she had against her. [Her only grandchild]
That being said....It didn't go the way as planned. Hubby was all prepared to tell her all about TTATT.
She made a pizza and asked him to say a prayer and he goes "I would love to, but I use the name Yehwah since in my research I have found out that 'Jehovah' is an invented name by Catholic monks in the 13th century."
Mom: "I don't want you using that name in this house, so you just say your own prayer."
After dinner she starts telling him about this client she has [She a CNA and does like Hospice home visits] She tells him that this man wanted some food with meat in it since his wife is a Vegan and refuses to fix it for him. So Grandma fixes him these meat dishes for several weeks when she goes and he never thansk her. So it starts making her mad. So she finally speaks up and asks the patient. "When you were growing up, didn't your Mother ever teach you to thank people for doing something nice for you.?
Hubby: "So that really hurt you because he didn't even acknowledge the effort and nice thing you did for him.
G'ma: "Yes it did! I was hurt and angry."
So Hubby starts reminding G'ma of some of the things she has done to Gojira in the past and how it really hurt our daughter.
G'ma: "That's between me & her."
Hubby: "No, she's my kid and you've really hurt her and it hurts me to see her crying and upset when you can't even make the time to see the kids when they were over here visiting friends & family."
Dead silence
Hubby: "Matt 18 says that if you know of someone that has something against you, that you need to go take care of the problem. If you don't your sacrifice, all that service & meeting attendance means absolutely nothing."
Dead silence
Hubby: "What have you got against my daughter?
He took his bible and laid it in the middle of the table and thumps it hard "Do you even believe this is God's word?"
G'ma: "Do you really want me to answer that?"
Hubby: "Yes, I do! Do you believe this is God's word?" [taps the cover again]
Dead silence with a very stubborn, hateful look on her face.
Hubby: "Well then I guess I better go. I love you Mom, but I just want to tell you something that you're not going to like to hear. One of these days the illusion will catch up to your reality, and your reality is going to be changed." Hugged her and left.
Hubby said he didn't even feel like trying to tell her anything about TTATT, because that look on her face was so demonic that he just wanted to get out of there. He said that it scared him because he's never seen his mother look like that.
All I can say is WOW

I've talked to a few elders I know that have put these packages together in the past. I don't know about nowadays, but in the 90's I was told that the WTBT$ gets some 'comp' rooms in those cities, and other 'perks' from the city & businesses, they offer them to the poor publishers at astronomical costs and pocket almost 1/2.
Don't know if it's true or not. But I do know that a letter to the body of elders for visiting NY headquarters that the WTBT$ gets your reward points for staying at the listed motels. This is from an earlier post. Thanks again Atlantis

Jesus is NOT the Archangel, Michael Heb 1:13 In any other translation except the NWT, The Living Bible Translation, says "And did God ever say to an angel, as he does to his Son, "Sit here beside me in honor until I crush all your enemies beneath your feet?" Jude 9 In the Greek Diaglott published by WTBT$ the word for word translation of the Greek word for, "May the Lord rebuke you." The spelling of the Greek word for Lord is the same one they use for Jesus, not God. So how could Michael the archangel tell Satan that if HE was Jesus???????

Gojira's Mom here. Ok, I'm nervous now. Gojira is calling her Dad right now and giving him some of the thoughts & tips all of you have suggested. Thank you for your good vibes & prayers. We will let everyone know as soon as we hear anything. Uncle D had a friend of his come over and he goes to my hubby, "Show him, show him everything." Awesome. If anyone out there watches 2 1/2 Men, Allen's mom Helen is a twin to my mother-in-law. Selfish, Self-righteous etc. i don't mean to be negative about her, but Gojira is correct, she's scary. I told Hubby that he was putting himself thru this and she is not going to listen to anything. But you never know. We'll see

Hi Former Mormon. So sad and sorry to hear that. I thought only the JW's were hateful & cruel to their family members that have been shunned. So thanks for sharing and PEACE be with you.

Stupidology and its findings
by Terry insince the early 1800's in america a number of new religions have appeared.. the church of jesus christ of latter day saints (mormons), christian science, jehovah's witnesses, scientology, etc.. there are elements in common.. some individual makes unprovable claims, untestable assertions and crafts unusual doctrines which dovetail in some ways with established beliefs while.
simultaneously and radically replacing them.. mormons produce a better and purer revelation in their book of mormon.. scientologists piggy-back off of psychiatry and gnosticism while inventing a new technology which eliminates infestations by alien beings trapped inside humans.. jehovah's witnesses claim leadership by a governing body as a sole channel of communicating escape plans from the imminent war of god on humans.. and so forth.... .
practioners of these religions must sooner or later grapple with disproofs which include discoveries made public of lies, misrepresentations and duplicity.. yet, the majority of adherents selectively dismiss such revelations as a test of their own faith and an opportunity to demonstrate solidarity.. a close examination of this self-reinforced refusal to confront disputatious rebuttal of doctrine i choose to call stupidology.. .

Since WTBT$ is still NGO members in the U.K, Russia & Belgium how can we contact them and file a petition that WT is NOT following their charter and letting the rights of its members leave WITHOUT persecution from the congregations & families?
