WHICH BIBLE BOOK has caused the most trouble in the world?
by Terry in
1. jw
2. friends
i'd vote for revelation since every nutcase who ever came down the pike has tackled it verse for verse and applied it to the time in which he was living.

ever notice that?

no matter what decade or century, people reading the bible always think that it applies to their time.

1. jw

rutherford ruled the watchtower organization from 1916 to 1942, traveled extensively, had several residences, most notably, beth sarim.

but absent always was his wife, mary, not to mention his son, malcolm as well.. ok, rutherford was so well known, why did no one inquire about his son and wife?.

when rutherford resided at beth sarim in san diego, why was his wife not there with him?

Watchtower Lies
by Unclepenn1 in
1. jw
2. friends
a jw i have been debating with (who is df'd by the way) gave me the go ahead to send to him what i would consider times where the wt has lied or been totally dishonest with the membership, or just in general.

i already sent him a lot of info about 1874/1914, and also about some other stuff.

not a big deal i thought, until i read more about freemasons and the so-called "illuminati", a group of 13 families that supposedly control the world.. supposedly these 13 families, such as the duponts, mcdonalds, kennedys, .
