e-watchman has decided to embrace the unholy watchtower whore and uphold her disgusting burdens on blood transfusions.

for the record, i now have e-watchman's email address and will be sending him copies of my commentary shortly after they are posted.

i have edited the content where necessary for sheer space (his verbiage is excessive and tiresome).

by shamus in

2. bible
i find that the witnesses are very "haughty".

haughty is described in the oxford dictionary as "proud of oneself and looking down on others"; how well this describes the wtbts.. how many people were very proud of having "the troof"?

how many people felt that they were special.

2. scandals
this forum has uncovered many jws who were found out to be political officials.

if this information should be old to some,--then perhaps for those who have just left the borg, might find the information helpful to reinforce their freedom.

the thread is very long, so if it should not work, then please go to kent steinhaug's forum at watchtower observer.. http://kent.steinhaug.com/forum/showthread.php?s=f3aa440065982e1f53cc3efe02055681&threadid=2744 .

The festival of Thanksgiving...have a good one my American Friends!
by shotgun in

.

this could probably be under friends but it has a belief twist in it.. enjoy your time with family and friends this long weekend and give thanks for all that is good.. i know many of you turkeys will be scared though...run ..run for your lives.. i don't think there can be too much wrong with the celebration considering the nation of israel celebrated with the festival of ingathering or harvest, almost sounds identical when you think about it.. .
