Things WT has condemned other religions for doing...only to eventually do themselves!

    Covering up of wrongdoing (eg: keeping the JW pedophiles under the radar of the legal system)

    Thats another good one Exwhyzee and a important one at that.

    The WTS came out a number of times pointing their finger at the Catholic situation, to only orchestrate their own cover up within

    their own organization.

    Even to this day the WTS has instructed their elders to only make notice to the police authorities when it is legally required to do so by stated law.

    Agreeing with androb31.... They used to call it 'creature worship'. Exhaulting others to high positions of power.

    They used to condemn other religions for putting their names on the forefront. Everything USED to be done quietly. Now they put the GB names on the screen and are know to be TV evangelists, asking for 'support'.

    Also, they used to always talk of the urgency of the end of this system, now on the video they are happy about an "investment that will be go on into the years ahead" (Warwick).

    BTW When I hear "Warwick", I think of a witch colony.

    A religion that has a hirachy just like the catholic church.

    Flying the national flag out side the kingdom hall on independence day to avoid getting a fine. That one just leaves me with out words.

    According to the Watchtower in 1955 this is what a Christian CANNOT DO:

    .

    *** w55 7/1 p. 411 Christian Baptism for the New World Society ***

    15

    A Christian, therefore, cannotbe baptized in the name of the one actually doing the immersing or in the name of any man, nor in the name of any organization, but in the name of the Father, the Son and the holy spirit.

    .

    .

    In 1985, this is what the Watchtower does:

    .

    *** w85 6/1 p. 30 Subjecting Ourselves to Jehovah by Dedication ***

    At the close of the convention baptism talk, the baptism candidates will be in position to answer with depth of understanding and heartfelt appreciation two simple questions that serve to confirm that they recognize the implications of following Christ’s example.

    The first question is:

    On the basis of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, have you repented of your sins and dedicated yourself to Jehovah to do his will?

    The second is:

    Do you understand that your dedication and baptism identify you as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses in association with God’s spirit-directed organization?

    Having answered yes to these questions, candidates are in a right heart condition to undergo Christian baptism.

    Being a part of the world, the UN NGO debacle also comes to mind.

    Condemning involvement in war yet owning a large share of Rand Corp primarily a war machine company.

    Apostolic succession, they used to just go off on how theres no way that even if the first Pope was picked by god after Peter's death that that would mean every Pope after him would also be the Vicar. Yet they do it themsleves claiming Rutherford and his losers were pick as the FDS and every GB since automatically gets the same blessing. What Hypocrites.

    Their biggest crime against humanity, disfellowshipping that they demand shunning for is also their biggest hypocrisy. They condemned the catholic church for doing it in STRONG language calling the practice PAGAN then 5 years later adopt it as their own and use the exact same scriptures they used to condemn the catholic church to defend their evil policies that have caused so many families and lives to shatter.

    Using "Emotionalism" to draw in and keep followers...sort of Pentecostal style....

    Now the tv.jw.org has a 'music video' called "the best life ever" designed purely to tug at emotions!

    Where is the logical, truthful doctrines?

    Stuff it...just be a "happy-clapper" Christian!
