  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  1) they begin question .

  2) they stop field service.

  3) they stop going to kingdumb hall.

  4. When they get quite angry when realizing​ how they've been manipulated over the years,

  5. Also a good sign is when variating sets of 2 Elders are hunting them down

  CLAM Video - re Erich Frost (Apr 17-23 2017)

  by Nicholaus Kopernicus in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i normally don't bother going to the midweek jw meetings much.

  however, upon reading in the april 2017 meeting workbook that there was to be a video about erich frost (former do for saxony & nazi prisoner in sachsenhausen concentration camp) i wanted to attend as i had read about this brother in history texts by detlef garbe and hans hesse.

  i had also visited auschwitz several times and noted that the museum had a display / exhibition about jehovah's witnesses.

  I am not interested in watching anything coming out of Watch Tower as it is consistently aelf serving,

  Of course, films such as this are attractive to those of us interested in history, however there are way too many messages in the subtext to sort through, which makes viewing for historical benefit a rather frustrating process

  Birthday Party

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have posted less and less personal threads because less and less jw-related activity has happened in my life.

  my jw mother called me on friday and asked me if i could do something on saturday.

  i was sure my wife would ask me if anyone asked about her, and what i said.

  They love the crowds!

  I saw FW Franz raise his arms fists clenched and wave to the small crowd

  after his talk,

  I didn't know what to make of this,

  I never saw this before, anywhere,

  It didn't make sense,

  as some of you know, i'm not a witness, but i am the co-author of a series of history book that discuss the watch tower's earliest years.

  russell mentions a 'brother' van der ahe as an early days wt evangelist.

  we can't identify him.

  Want to read a surprising comment/complaint posted on my website about JW's encouraged not to have kids. Who would have thought!

  by AndersonsInfo in

  http://watchtowerdocuments.org/did-you-know-having-children/#comment-474.

  here's the short article found in the "did you know?

  " series found on watchtower documents, and, underneath it, is the unusual comment:.

  In 1987 Canada I heard the speaker say that "to bear children now was

  IRRESPONSIBLE"

  As I looked down on the stadium rink floor simply filled with

  baby carriages and strollers,

  I wondered about the childless men who came up with this,

  How dare they call these young parents, obediently gatherered there

  "irresponsible"

  Takes gaul

  Which Watchtower publications did you keep?

  by Schnufti in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'm currently cleaning up our bookcase and need to decide what goes into the trash.

  i'll keep the watchtower books that are not available online anymore (e.g.

  the brown "reasoning" book).
