The WT is laundering money..? Financing Arms in Iraq (Rand Cam)..? It's leaders are Freemasons and Bethel has a secret 'lodge'..? How many guesses can we have...?

Any Ideas on the Next "Big Thing" that Will Bring the Watchtower Down?
by jamiebowers ini received this via a face book pm from the group christian witness fellowship:.
also near the end of the show, richard rawe says "something extra big" is about to happen that will take watchtower "down," something bigger even than their pedophile scandal and the u.n. connections scandal put together.
he says he can't spill the beans yet, but the something is definitely coming.

Just as the WT prints fanciful stories as factual happenings, JWs do exactly the same - whenever they 'state a fact' (usually to support a pile of WT cr*p), it's accompanied by, 'I read it/heard it somewhere' (yeah, a WT/from platform)

A 'generation' has to have a consitent meaning, it cannot mean something different when just referring to the 1914 generation (ie., 'overlapping') - by the same token, everyone who has ever lived on Earth (and who will ever live) are of one generation. I can see (sadly) how the WT could bluff the JWs into thinking that too.
I thought they were trying to phase out the 1914 thing - but I suspect this is just a temporary 'fix' until someone comes up with some really impressive 'New Light' that'll boost numbers and morale.

Ok....this is making my head hurt. I have 'overlapped' with people born before 1900 (so I/we share a generation?!). They, in turn, would have 'overlapped' with people born in early 1800s, so they are of the same generation (?), and so on backwards to 'Year Dot'...so, are we of the same 'generation' that Jesus was originally speaking to..? If we are, then THIS generation will never 'pass away/die..(?)

Typical of the Borg, surely all lives are worth saving or maybe not.
A non-JW is not an asset to the bOrg. What will they get in return? Saving fellow Cult members primarily guarantees an income (of sorts). I told you I'm cynical.

Preliminary report: 58 JWs died in Haiti
by AndersonsInfo inhttp://www.jwbrothers.org/play.php?vid=2080.
among jehovahs witnesses, congregation elders work tirelessly to make contact with all members of the congregation to ensure that they are safe or can get to a safe place.
also, the elders check to be sure that each one has lifes necessities, such as clean drinking water, food, clothing, and essential medication.

I have a question re the 'lorry loads' of supplies...Are they giving the impression that the WT pays for these from contributions..? As I recall a disaster some years ago (sorry, can't recall where) and our local Kingdom Hall (and I'm assuming many others) all made up boxes of basic supplies to be sent out - individual JWs buying the necessary products, so the only 'cost' (if any) to the WTBTS was the transport.

Every time a disaster happens, it's all about them
by JimmyPage inthe earthquakes in haiti affected by far more non-jws than dubs.
but every time something like this happens, somehow it's all about them!
it's a fulfillment of prophecy, and oh, how are our brothers doing, and screw the rest of the "ungodly" world!

Your observations reminded me of what the WT leaders did when the World Trade Center was struck on 9/11. We've all seen the people running
down the streets with terror in their faces while trying to escape huge plumes of smoke and dust right behind them.
The WT leaders ordered the doors to all of their building LOCKED so no one could get in and out of danger.
I've read this before on here - can anyone supply the source..? It's an absolute disgrace if true.
I'm getting more and more cynical about the WT - I can imagine them rubbing their hands together now, Sunday morning meeting, nice fat bonus in 'contributions'.

The food has been sent to the Assembly Hall disaster centre close to Port-au-Prince, where they have a kitchen in order to cook and provide the food to the brothers and sisters there.
Are they only giving shelter and food to fellow JWs as this implies?
These brothers have been guiding the vehicles through as the streets are full of people, and this makes progress more difficult. As there are still 15-20 aftershocks every night, even those who still have their houses standing feel safer out on the streets than inside a building. Therefore it has been slower getting through the country.
Maybe it's just my interpretation, but this reads as though actual victims were hindering them...I know it isn't possible to help everyone, but I can't help thinking that non-JW victims really do not matter.

Just seen on News that UK charities will be helping fund relief in Haiti...the WT being a registered charity here, I wonder what its contribution will be..?

Meanwhile, Witness families in safe areas open their homes to fellow Witnesses among the evacuees. Such love truly is “a perfect bond of union.”
I've never understood this...how is this loving..? Can you imagine any other religious group specifying only 'taking in' their own 'kind' when faced with such an awful tragedy (the WT would slate any other religion as being unChristian)..? It's just human kindness to help anyone who is in dire need.
