  Zoned Visit: Who's Calling Who Bloodguilty?

  by breakfast of champions in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so at the zoned visit, tough tony remarked how inactive ones had "blood on their hands" for not warning the unsuspecting inhabitants of earth of their impending doom at armageddon.

  could it be true that the society is at least equally bloodguilty for the same offense?.

  if there was one way watchtower could warn the entire inhabited earth of their sudden destruction all at once, it would certainly be on the internet.. and the perfect opportunity to warn the entire inhabited earth of the impending destruction would be to answer a "frequently answered question" in an honest and forthright manner.

  BOC: We know they're capable of being "honest" and "forthright"

  BOC, I feel your pain.

  The Leaders of the WTBTS are only capable of being "honest" and "forthright" when talking about fashion faux pas and vacation destinations.

  For reasons that are hard to understand, they avoid what would seem to be obvious spiritual topics like "love, mercy, compassion" and focus on talking about the color of your socks. Why? Because this is what Holy Spirit wants.

  Please, just Listen, Obey and Be Blessed: it's a cult!

  Earth rotates the wrong way. ( no one even knew that )

  i've heard it mentioned a few times.. the rotating earth graphic in the background on jwtv rotates backwards.. i've mentioned it to the active and they are not concerned at all.. my response is, "it's something they are portraying that cannot be more wrong".. .

  two gb members have stood in front of it telling us to trust them.

  how can you when they think the sun rises in the west.... .

  To be fair, I think it was Neil DeGrasse Tyson that told Jon Stewart that they had the earth spinning backwards on The Daily Show as well.

  Last time I checked, the producers of the Daily Show do not claim to be "The One True Religion on Earth."

  OK, I just watched Steven "Rubberface" Lett make an ass out of himself yet again, ... or is it "still?"

  Clearly, if this is supposed to be a representation of Earth rotating under a geo-stationary camera, then it is rotating the wrong direction.

  I am not an expert in satellite orbits, but I am scientifically literate. Unless the WTBTS has launched their own special satellite with a non-standard orbit, this apparent motion does not fit any of the three basic types orbits that NASA describes on it Catalog of Earth Satellite Orbits webpage.

  Once again, the WTBTS demonstrate they are complete idiots.

  Let's review: It's a cult!

  Anthony Morris III is really Anthony Esposito?

  by VM44 in

  1. watchtower

  can anyone confirm that gb member anthony morris iii's real birth name is anthony esposito?.

  if it is, that would explain why it has been hard to find his military record, or any other biographical information about him.. .

  I remember you were able to nail down some hard to find intel on Sanderson.

  This "Morris" character is a slipperly little eel.

  A fascinating invention is being tested here in our little village.

  by Gregor in

  1. social
  2. current

  it is a beautifully simple machine that produces electricity from moving water.. we live on the columbia river 3 miles above the huge bonneville dam hydro-electric installation.. we have an abandoned lock that was built about one hundred years ago to lift river traffic around the rapids formed thousands of years ago when the naturally formed bridge of the gods collapsed.

  the river now flows through it next to thunder island.. recently, an experimental device called the "eco-auger" was lowered into the locks current to begin tests of the beta model.

  it is about the size of a small school bus.

  My Parents have gone FULL CULT MODE! Having a job is SATANIC!

  by BU2B in

  to give a little background, my parents are in their late 50s.

  around a year ago, my elder dad got laid off from his job.

  he worked as a auto mechanic making ok money.

  BU2B: Again he is TURNING DOWN MULTIPLE JOB OFFERS to pioneer and is now selling off golf clubs to pay the mortgage!

  Those must be some golf clubs!

  Your parents actions are insane. The sad thing is, when it all runs out, there will not be any Jehovah to bail them out for their foolishness; meanwhile, the GB boys are living like kings in NY.

  he also wrote, "it's in her hands.

  it's her move now.

  This is so wrong, but this is what this religion does: it destroys families.

  Please, consult with an attorney before you contemplate an out-of-state move.

  Balaamsass2, did they say specifically why?

  It's interesting. This is the first and only time I can recall so many people openly saying the didn't agree with a GB member.
