How to prove the Watchtower wrong with their own recent literature (May 15th, 2014)

by Zana in

this is very good, at least it will be in a few years.

sorry if it's been posted here before already.. it's in the watchtower magazine may 15th, 2014, last page: from our archives: they talk about a public speech held in sao paolo in 1923 where they also distributed the brochure "millions who now live will never die" (pictured in the magazine!).

a quick calculation: 1923 -> 2014, how many people in the world now are 90 years old or more?

Yeah, they even went so far as to say that "if you die after the year 1925, it will be your own fault!" I bet they felt so clever with that one.

heres some clips from his talks

DC (Landover) Convention in August

by insearchoftruth in

wonder how many who are attending realize that the payment that the wts is making to have the convention at fedex goes directly into the redskin's bank accounts.

i know my wife finds the name redskins abhorrent, not sure if she has made this connection..

Hey fadetoblack, Cap center got torn down about 15 years ago I wanna say. Put up a mall in its place. FedEx is a mile away, just inside the beltway. FedEx is outdoors, so Im sure it will be great in DC as that time of year its gonna either be 95 degrees or thunderstorms. Cap center was fun, I always got a skybox because I knew the elite ones.

Special announcement about

She is confused. Like mentioned above, they are getting rid of one meeting night when the CO comes, mostly because the halls are so packed that it screws up everyone else when one hall has the CO visit.

Don't expect the weeknight meetings to end anytime soon.

the following email was sent to watchtower documents recently from a witness insider in spain.

congratulations for all the information you have given on the legal framework of the watchtower.. in spain, the watchtower is following the instructions coming from patterson that works exclusively with the law firm baker & mckenzie.

Bethelites get free health care as long as they are bethelites. If they have a moderately expensive health issue, suddenly, they are told to leave bethel unless they are high up the food chain.

Tower of Babel built by Babies!

by Billy the Ex-Bethelite in

the weekly tms bible reading assignment is not read, or not carefully read, by most of the sheeples.

it doesn't really matter, because the consideration of the bible reading material is one of the shortest parts on the meeting with a limited number of comments, and those comments are restricted to less than 30 seconds or you will get counselled.

over and over, the dubs are told to read the bible, yet the organization gives no real encouragement to read the bible by keeping everyone busy in the recruiting work and using relatively few scriptures in their "talks".. why?
