The Watchtower Tract and Bible Society........in it's various forms associate with UN programmes (Agenda 21 --2008 Germany) to the UN's buddy the OSCE whose site not only divulges it's paramilitary intiatives but also says the UN is their primary partner organization........which is attended by several branches each year.

So, if I understand thsi correctly, the WT was registered with the UN as a NGO till 2001 but, from what I gather fromother threads, was wtill a NGO in other parts of the world at least till 2003, yes?
Which calls into question thier "not a part of this system of things/world" claims, correct?

The WTS disassociated as a direct NGO from the UN in 2001 .....
From there they have continuously sat on or presented at any conference they felt benefited the Org.
The WTS doesn't see this as wrong compared to say a R&F accepting a membership to the YMCA to use their swim pool or gym equipment....
DO as MOTHER says, not as she DOES......

Here is the google translated german page discussing the WTS involvement, mind you the issue is that Agenda 21 is a UN program...

Sorry for the blank post...
So, Agenda 21 is an UN program in which the JW's ( at least in Germany) are involved in, a program with OTHER religious organizations, the supposed "whores of babylon".
Nice.

It was a one time event ......however it does show the WTS will associate with the whores of babylon and ride it's beastly vehicles should the WTS decide it is good PR moment.
The OSCE doings are yearly thing.....
