Has Anyone Got Any Proof That The Society Monitors Apostate Web Sites?

by slimboyfat in

i am extremely skeptical about this, yet people on this forum seem to talk about it as though it were a fact.

so has anyone got any actual concrete proof?

here are the reasons why i don't think they do:.

Voyager

How do they know that the scriptures and references are given in full? Because they (monitor), thats how!

See (Kingdom Ministry/2002/page-8) which states, quote:

Internet Web Sites: We have an official Internet Web site: www.watchtower.org. This site is adequate to make information available to the public. There is no need for any individual, committee, or congregation to prepare a Web page about Jehovah?s Witnesses. Some have posted the contents of our publications with all scriptures and references given in full and have even offered copies of convention material on a donation basis. Whether profit is involved or not, the practice of reproducing and distributing publications of Jehovah?s Witnesses in an electronic document is a violation of copyright laws. While some may view this as a service to the brothers, it is not approved and should be discontinued.

watch tower bible & tract society of pennsylvania 1969 need for mental cleansing.

it is evident, therefore, that there must be a cleaning out of the mind if there is to be an implanting of right thinking.

JW Rock Band

by spero in

jw
friends

just thought some of you might be interested in the music website of a new rock and roll / blues band.. .

nothing new there you might think, but...all the band members are active (?

) witnesses, all supposedly "in good standing", and including at least two elders, an ms and a pio.

Voyager

I searched the website over also, and found no mention of them being Jehovah's Witnesses. However, that is not unusual. I am going to E-mail them and ask them point blank! I do not doubt the information provided, I would like to see it in writing, thats all. If they are JWs then I will do all I can to (help) spero prove it.

If you will copy these threads to a 3.5 diskette, you will have them for life! In have posted this same information for people who were asking several times. If you have it on disk, then you will always have it.

The three scans above, will probably be gone off this forum in a week, just as they were taken off when (Expatbrit) posted them. Here copy these:

Hi Brutusmaximus:

The best explanation was given by (Expabrit).

The H M Riley Trust is a U.S. trust that has the Watchtower Society as the sole beneficiary. Basically, it is a vehicle to make income for the Watchtower, using assets left by Henrietta Riley. The income generated by the trust is transferred to the Watchtower by means of a "donation". For the year ended April 30, 2002, the trust generated income of $1,740,127 and donated $1,945,645 to the Watchtower. In comparison, for the 2001 year the trust generated $2,939,731 in income, and donated $3,285,050 to the Watchtower. The difference between income and expenditure is made up by realising gains on the assets held.

In-other-words, every time someone purchased a pack of cigarettes, it helped H M Riley or Phillip Morris, and in turn donations went from Phillip Morris right into the Watchtower's pocket as a beneficiary! The trust built up interest as time went by, and the Watchtower took the proceeds from this interest. At least thats trhe way I understand it.

Thanks!
