  Watchtower sitting on potential goldmine of millions of non-JW memorial attenders

  by yadda yadda 2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  last year's "letter from the governing body" (on jw.org) notes:.

  "last year, the memorial attendance was 19,241,252. how encouraging to see so many honor jehovah and jesus christ by attending the most important meeting of the year for gods people!".

  that's about 12 million or so non-jw's who go to the memorial only, a good % of whom are evidently at least somewhat sympathetic or curious about the jw's, but for various reasons have no desire to commit to the religion.. .

  so far my oldest niece and oldest sister cut me off.

  Some interesting points when considering Russell's masonic activities.

  by oldguy in

  2. friends

  this will be the first time i have communicated with former witnesses in this manner, so please be patient with me as i figure out how this all works.. it would be great to find a brother in scotland who could trace the membership records of the knights templar division of the masonic lodge that russell belonged to.. if indeed he was a 32nd degree master mason in the order, then he would have been practicing secret rituals for a considerable number of years during his adult life in order to achieve the title of master mason and being referred to as "worshipful master".. small wonder he was so determined to have his father (a mason with powerful contacts) on board the original bible study group.. makes it somewhat more understandable how he was able to give lectures in carnagie hall, and attract financing donations during the early years of the society.. what more could the rich families in america that supported the early zionist movement ask for than to support zion's watchtower and it"s elitist form of heavenly class distictions.. there are claims that joseph rutherford was also a member of the same masonic lodge as his mentor charles russell.. all this begs us to ask can a rotten tree ever produce good fruit?

  or can a crooked tree be made to grow straight?.

  welcome your thoughts and comments.

  Thank you for enlightening us about them. I knew the Masons factored in at the beginning, and someone had said, "well, yes, but they're not now." My question was, "when did they stop". Another poster had said that in some of the older books that a mirror image revealed masonic emblems.

  My best friend died yesterday

  sometimes people make special connections to animals.

  sometimes they bond very deeply and are real friends.

  yesterday was the end of such a friendship that lasted ten wonderful years.

  i stopped to visit a sister at the hospital yesterday.

  (i'm a guy) her husband is having a health crisis of his own and i figured that if he got to the hospital to sit with her, he was doing miserably.

  what i heard was that she had had a stroke and these people would really be up against the wall if she got "shut down,".

  i have about 30 old books that i have collected over the years and i don't know what to do with them.

  i wouldn't mind getting a little money for them, after all, i did contribute and spend tons of money in car gas.

  sowhatnow-- Are you serious? Subliminals that can be seen with a mirror? Baphomet? That religion is demonized forsure. I'll definitely get the mirror and do that. Thanks.
