this is a quote of a quote taken from anthoney mathenia:.

" for organizations like the watchtower, absolute control of their message is paramount.

it will not even allow its own adherents to spread their good news online.

William Penwell

You know nothing in that cult is done without the organzations approval. It is only a matter of time it is either taken down or comply to what the mother organzations says.

the leaks from the new november watchtower are alarming.

they will disturb even longtime jws who haven't surrendered all rational thought.

it's become so cult like its scary.

William Penwell

Aha....So the only way to learn about a religious organization is from that organization itself? So we can safely disregard everything the WTS says about Catholics, Mormons, Jews, etc.? Sweet.

Sir82, this point never came to my mind but the JW's are the first to attack organzations like the Catholics. Again a typical JW cult mind that they are right and everyone else is wrong.

Watchtower November 2014: Witnesses can't donate blood

by opusdei1972 in

let us read a recent watchtower publication:.

many medical professionals and other advocates of blood transfusion appeal to people to donate blood in hopes of saving lives.

however, jehovahs holy people acknowledge that the creator has the right to say how blood is to be treated.

William Penwell

No the WT never flip flops on questions of faith. Sarcasm intended.

(thanks breakfast of champions).

I was told the great tribulation was going to start before 1975? My dad sold his house in 1974 to down size and get ready for the end of the system. A good elder brother bought it off of him and flipped it for a profit. I guess some didn't buy the BS but just used others for their own financial benefit. Is it a wonder why some of us have no use for this cult.

Nice to know you. Your brother in law sounds a lot like my ex brother in law. A self rightious piece of garbage. Still holy then thou yet most of his children are either disfunctional or no longer JW's.

I am sure I am glad I am now away from this cult. I was talking to my brother the other day and he made a comment that if you want to know about JW's , ask a JW not an ex JW, in otherwords to get only their side of the story. Although nothing was mentioned about the new policy on fence sitters. I am awlays careful what I say as I do not want to upset my elderly mother. Once she is gone I don't care if I ever talk to any of the JW family again.

brief summary:.

the jws, backed by county commissioners, contend they have a legal right to build an assembly hall in the jedd.

William Penwell

Not just the JW's but every organization are always so quick to throw up the discrimnation card if things don't go their way. In this case it was an industrial area there should have been no way they should have got this approved.
