please forgive my language in this post but i'm at my wits end and pissed as hell.
my name is kevin and my partner who was a poster on this board was jonjonsimons.
today jons dad showed up at our house.
Hi Kevin,
I'm sorry to hear what Jon's father did..
I take back all the stuff I said earlier..
Use every means at your disposal (legal) to rid yourself from this person.. He obviously is not in any way trying to help you, or even make a half-hearted attempt to pretend to care about the fact his son just passed away.
In their own words, he's a bad association... Use the law to rid yourself of him..
Sorry for your loss, and my thoughts and prayers are with you
just a question.
what stops the boys in crooklyn from simply saying: "look, we don't know why so & so filled out this form to become a ngo.
we, the governing body didn't know about it and as soon as we did we removed outselves from association with the un.
Hmmm,
How can that be? Obviously an individual member of the GB can do things all by himself.. Wouldn't that violate the theocratic organization that was set up by Jehovah himself? I thought that is why they changed from a single president to a governing body years back.. This is very disturbing to me, are you sure he acted alone?
Also bring out the point that every year for the past 10 years they had to file papers with the UN to keep the relationship going.. So, even if a single person did break the theocratic order of things, the GB had to know about it from year 2 to year 10 when they resigned..
I wonder if a single person did the "resigning" or if the entire GB felt it was prudent to resign.. Hmmm, again, more questions...
Just my $.02
before aes, the export system was paper-bound; expensive, labor intensive, error prone.
aes uses proven technology in a new way to address a significant problem with the export process.
it will contribute to a re-engineering of the way u.s. exports are accomplished.
Is it possible that they print all their propaganda material in Brooklyn, and then ship it out from here?
Maybe they just do alot of shipping...
I have no idea what they could be shipping other than "paper"?
I'll ask a friend of mine what AES is... (He's a shipping manager at a company that ships heavy machinery)
check out this paragraph from the article "serve jehovah without distraction" in the april 1994 kingdom ministry:.
time-consuming side issues: some have got caught up in efforts to resolve common problems in modern society.
christians need to avoid becoming involved in the worlds endless debates over social issues or its futile struggles to correct injustices.
Sweet:
I wonder WHICH international organization they are referring to..

Ewwwww..
Where can we order back issues of the Apr 1994 KM..
First, let me get my popcorn ready.. This is gonna be good <G>...
i have started an "article" about the wtbts and the un in the true wtbts format (i hope) before i go into anymore work and investigation i wanted your opinions as to whether i am on the mark as to their way of speaking or not.
"think for a moment, and reflect.........would you want to be part of a "society" of people who have pulled the wool over your eyes...........in effect lied to you?
let's take it to a more personal level.
Where are the numbers after each paragrahg and the questions to answer <laugh>
these are merely summaries, to the extent my memory is accurate.. others (freeminds, watchtower observer) can provide the exact details.. 1) awake publishes holocaust issue - projects image of what 'stand.
up guys' organization was during mass murder of jews.
article.
Just remember the saying, and then apply it to the governing body:
Oh lord it's hard to be humble when you're perfect in every way
It fits them!!! <G>
as of 11:45 this morning (i had a telphone call this morning with the refernce department person named holly at 212-963-7234), i can tell you that the watchtower has disassociated itself from the united nations dpi!!!!!!.
the dpi is now taking them off the list.
the dpi requested the list removal to be done this morning!!!!!.
Hey,
Looks like we have both "covert" and "overt" action taking place..
HEHEHEHEHEHE
You will give us complete Bomb Damage Assesment later, right?
perhaps you recall the instance in the bible where samson made a wager with the philistines that they couldnt guess his riddle.
as it turned out they wheedled the answer out of him by his fiancee, but the point is that they had a wager.
since the underlying assumption of the apostasy is that we are not living in the last days of this system of things, and that this world is not facing anything remotely like the biblical apocalypse, at least not any time soon, in the spirit of such antagonism, i would like to propose a similar wager.
Hey You Know,
does the GB know about the market getting ready to crash?
You better inform them, so they can liquidate their stocks into cold hard cash..
We wouldn't want any of that defense stock money of theirs going belly up on 'em
Oh, nevermind, I forgot the GB has a direct line to Jehovah on this stuff.. If HE hasn't told them to get out of the stock market yet, I can only assume that it ain't gonna crash anytime soon..
.. Waiting on the new light .. <hehehehehehehehe>
wow,.
was just looking at the official watchtower web site and found this:.
when a patient is a jehovah's witness, beyond the matter of choice, conscience comes into the picture.
Wow,
Was just looking at the official watchtower web site and found this:
----
When a patient is a Jehovah's Witness, beyond the matter of choice, conscience comes into the picture. One cannot think only of the physician's conscience. What of the patient's? Jehovah's Witnesses view life as God's gift represented by blood. They believe the Bible's command that Christians must "abstain from blood" (Acts 15:28, 29).8 Hence, if a physician paternalistically violated such patients' deep and long-held religious convictions, the result could be tragic. Pope John Paul II has observed that forcing someone to violate his conscience "is the most painful blow inflicted to human dignity. In a certain sense, it is worse than inflicting physical death, or killing."9
It's on the following link talking about blood:
http://www.watchtower.org/library/hb/article_07.htm
Hmmm, quoting Pope John Paul II and talking about "violating conscience" in the same sentence..
Very interesting :-)
Sorry just had to share.. The Hypocrisy just cried out at me <ROFL>
