Now I see why JW's say they are the happiest people in the world, boozing
overeating and now drugs. Sounds like a fun place...
Witnesses have always been known for heavy drinkers, drink and be merry...

merk ch 16 says all believers of jesus will perform miracles....
by sowhatnow in15 he said to them, go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
16 whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
17 and these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18 they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.. 19 after the lord jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of god.

" In my name they will drive out demons". Try promoting that today in
your church. Not many churches speak about demons anymore, I wonder
if the phrase "the devil made me do it" have something to do with it.
The phrase made popular by Flip Wilson....

Humm, Jack Daniel's vs prescription drugs. One you have a hangover and
the other one may cause a person to be paranoid, some delusion, maybe go
off the deep in. I see, early leaders of the WT were alcoholics and a little nuts, but
the leaders of today and prescription drugs they are full blown nuts.

were gathering for the elite and they would get sh---t face, I mean down right
drunk. It was wild, we were new and a little surprised. For some reason I was brought
into the elite group from the start, my wife and I and all the elders. It was funny, Sunday
talk given by a Elder who two nights ago couldn't find the book of Genesis because he
was too drunk. But that was good times, a little hypocritical I may say but great times. LOL

WT October 15, 2015 - Don't believe Apostate Lies
by Designer Stubble inthe last article in this new wt, shows me that the organization is dealing with much information that is damaging them.
i am sure that the many recent lawsuits are being noticed by the r&f.. here are some gems from that article, titled the naive person believes every word.
we must be very selective about what we consider worthy of our attention.

For once I would love for the WT to address the lies we have been telling folks.
Name just one lie and we will leave you alone, we may go on our marry way.
But we are betting 100 to your 0, how does that stand up. Who is telling the truth here.
If it was 10% lies we were telling people , ok you may have a point but we are kicking
your butts at 100% truthfulness.

Tax-exempt Status of Churches and the Gay Marriage Decision
by lambsbottom init will be interesting to see what will happen with the "beloved" 501c3 tax exempt status which the churches hold so dearly onto.
the first-century christians met in homes.
they did not have exemption from taxes to the governments.

lambs bottom: "Churches that refuse to perform same sex marriages should lose their tax
exempt status". Hell those churches that have refuse to marry same sex would
change their tune real fast. It's all about money.

What Would Happen if the Watchtower Loses Their TAX EXEMPT STATUS?
by John Aquila inwould it really affect them?
how would it affect volunteers at any construction project since that work would now be taxable.
any materials they buy would be taxable.

When any group accepts a tax exemption, it agree to play by certain rules
and accept a certain degree of oversight. Federal law actually makes it
more difficult for the IRS to audit churches than other charities. In addition
to this modest "no electioneering" rule, for example, tax exempt groups
cannot collect money for a "charitable" purpose and then use it all for
the personal benefit of the director and family.
Do you seriously believe the IRS and possibly even criminal investigative
bodies have no right to try to scrutinize possible misbehaviors??
For now hands off in regards to churches....

When my age group (60-80) have passed you will see a dramatic drop in
the numbers. It's simple, that is the reason why many of the young ones
are still in. For young people that life grinds on monotonously and meeting
attendance becomes rote behavior. You sing (oh God the songs), you listen
to the same BS, you greet a few people with handshakes and smile and
you go home. The young ones see and in no way will they fill the KH in the future.
There is no zeal among the young ones now, so what can the GB do to restore that
zeal when they(young ones) never had it in the first place.
