  Why did the Tower Change the Watch ?

  to get to the other side.........i'm actually going to work today, but wanted to post this old, but unusual article for anyone, such as myself, that hasn't seen it.....what was interesting was the claim that "revisions in legal structure" were dictated by the need to keep pace with growth.

  why then is bethel, as rumoured, downsizing, unless this growth has declined since this article was written.

  sorry i don't have a link......... .

  deddaisy,

  Thanks for taking the time to post that information. This is the first time I have seen it.

  There is so much going on that these threads get lost very fast.

  isaiah 10:1,2 (nwt) .

  woe to those who are enacting harmful regulations and those who, constantly writing, have written out sheer trouble, 2 in order to push away the lowly ones from a legal case and to wrest away justice from the afflicted ones of my people

  sounds prophetic to me!

  Searcher,

  The Society's own comments to those scriptures can be found in their publication, Isaiah's Prophecy light for all mankind.

  On page 142 paragraph 18, It says Jehovah's Law forbids all forms of injustice: "You people must not do injustice in the judgement." The last sentence says, Through Isaiah, Jehovah now focuses his attention on these wicked judges. You see, they were talking about themselves and trying to apply it to Christendom.

  They themselves are the wicked judges. How more wicked can they be? Forming judicial committees to Disfellowship people like Bill Bowen, Barbara and Joe Anderson, The Pandella's and Others. Calling abuse victims Liars.

  I would like to share with the board an example of a way Dubs are brainwashed into equating the internet with Satan.

  I heard this with my own ears! In fact I have it on tape.

  A Circuit Overseer was giving the Sunday talk and he mentioned ways we are deceived by Satan.

  I will not go into the details but he said, "It is in the bible that Satan uses many ways to deceive us'". He said, " We need to be aware of his ways of working on us. He said, "I would like to have you turn to 2 Corinthians chapter especially verse 11 it indicates that his ways that his ways of deceiving us are all indicated in the bible. He said, " Now I have to admit that as times change he has to alter the.way he uses those things, for example the crafts we have today, we have had warnings of the danger of the internet. He said, "That was not a danger back at the beginning of the 19th century and the 20th century we didn't have that system so he is tailoring these things but it is the same principle."

  He went on talking and I was waiting for him to tell the audience what the dangers of the internet are but he never mentioned the internet again.

  Talks like this are WTs way of embedding in people's minds that the internet is a place to stay away from . They don't have to come right out and say, "STAY off the internet" They put the idea there that it is bad and they don't even have to say why.

  Folks, the WT is worried about the internet!!!

  This subject has been discussed many times but that is just my 2 cents and marveling at the true masters of deception.

  NPR Broadcast on JW Pedophile Issue 7/20

  by Seeker4 in

  2. current

  new hampshire public radio broadcast another scathing report on the witnesses' pedophile problem early this morning on a program called reporting religion.

  i think the show is a bbc program, and may be somewhat connected to the panorama broadcast.

  i would imagine the program was or will be aired on any number of npr stations across the country this weekend, so check it out.. .

  Hi Seeker4,

  Thanks for posting that information. I agree with everything that has been said about the internet.

  I look at the dubs in my area and I know that most of them still don't know what is going on with the pedophile issue. They believe what they are told from the platform. (The apostates are working with the News media) That it is all lies. That is what the elders are telling them. A lot of them did not even watch Dateline and know nothing about the Panorama program.

  It is unbelievable how little they know about what is going on. Most know absolutely nothing about the United Nations Scandal.

  If it were not for the fact that I have a computer and have access to the internet and am not afraid to come to this site and sites like it, I would still be in the dark too.

  Fulano,

  I just could not resist posting this joke in response to your comment about the colored sisters.

  When I born, I black
  When I grow up, I black
  When I go in sun, I black
  When I cold, I black
  When I scared, I black
  When I sick, I black
  And when I die, I still black.
  
  You white folks......
  
  When you born, you pink
  When you grow up, you white
  When you go in sun, you red
  When you cold, you blue
  When you scared, you yellow
  When you sick, you green
  And when you die, you gray
  So who you callin colored??

  Who Pays The Ferryman....?

  by hillary_step in

  2. beliefs

  french philosopher blaise pascal once noted, "men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction.

  " a case study for this statement can clearly be evidenced by the governing body of jehovahs witnesses.. the gb present themselves as lovers of truth and righteousness who are the only persons on this planet who speak for god.

  this doctrine is at the very core of the beliefs of jehovahs witnesses and is one of the few that cannot be rationalized away by wts apologists.
