What part of the JWS religion isn't a theological fraud ?
It was a invention by men to empower those men

I think you did an admirable job Terry of revealing some inconvenient truth about the JWS internal cover up of pedophilia within the JW organization.
Funny how you smack a JWS with some uncomfortable truth they quickly leave and retort " Go to JWorg. "
Brand loyalty is a paramount inquisition with JWS no matter what , well Jah is watching after all to see how loyal one is to his chosen organization.
Elder: "I really don't think it's profitable to continue this line of questioning. I have to go now. If you have any other questions. . .
I would have gone into the organization's dating of events which keep on getting changed (1874 -->>) and how this change is most likely relating to the organization's literature proliferation agenda.

I think this article helps to explain what Terry is getting at .......
Plato writes that the Form (or Idea) of the Good is the ultimate object of knowledge, although it is not knowledge itself, and from the Good, things that are just, gain their usefulness and value. Humans are compelled to pursue the good, but no one can hope to do this successfully without philosophical reasoning. According to Plato, true knowledge is conversant, not about those material objects and imperfect intelligences which we meet within our daily interactions with all mankind, but rather it investigates the nature of those purer and more perfect patterns which are the models after which all created beings are formed. Plato supposes these perfect types to exist from all eternity and calls them the Forms or Ideas.[2] As these Forms cannot be perceived by human senses, whatever knowledge we attain of the Forms must be seen through the mind's eye (cf. Parmenides 132a), while ideas derived from the concrete world of flux are ultimately unsatisfactory and uncertain (see the Theaetetus). He maintains that degree of skepticism which denies all permanent authority to the evidence of sense. In essence, Plato suggests that justice, truth, equality, beauty, and many others ultimately derive from the Form of the Good. -

Interesting piece about Stephen Lett and family: property developers
by Diogenesister inanother very well researched programme by the blue envelope exploring stephen lett's bio and his family interest in property.
interestingly his parents were pioneering until the new service year 1975 , when they immediately changed tack and began investing in properties along the gulf coast.
once again, highly recommended veiwing.. https://youtu.be/9qh0jbvsdrc.

So what we can take from this is that its no wonder Lett knew the value of property investing from the many sales and purchases the WTS made. $$$
Promote a vow of poverty to all others who are closely under him in the organization but make some lucrative investments behind closed doors.
Those sneaky GB members
It makes me wonder if JWS even know what the word hypocrite is ???

Will you attend the Memorial 2020 ? - Covid-19 (Coronavirus)
by bats in the belfry in... or rather listen to the advice on their jw news website:.
show love to others.
while we all know the importance of attending christian meetings and participating in the public ministry, if you are sick, it is best to stay home to avoid infecting others.

If they were smart which I kinda doubt they would make everyone there put on plastic gloves when the emblems are passed.
I'd like to see that just for a laugh

Ask current Jehovah's Witnesses if they KNOW what happened in 1954 (SHOCKING)
by Terry in(referred to below: watchtower bible and tract society presidents: russell, rutherford, knorr, franz )did you know that from 1879 until 1954 ... ... the writings of c.t.russell, j.f.rutherford, nathan knorr, and the watchtower's own charter... ... agreed ... that jesus christ was to be worshiped?this fact has been cleverly and dramatically hidden by manipulation of older quotations.
______________________________________________________________________pastor charles taze russell answers the question for us.
see below zion’s watch tower 1898 jul 15 p.216“question: the fact that our lord received worship is claimed by some to be an evidence that while on earth he was god the father disguised in a body of flesh and not really a man.

Well written Terry
I think the most relevant explanation to the Rutherford qestion was this....
Clearly and forcefully J.F.Rutherford had taken a small group of Adventist bible students enamoured of Pastor Russell's chronology and pyramidology and compacted them into a mind-control cult obsessed with proper behavior and adherence to rules, regulations and quirky interpretations from a central authority.
Rutherford wanted complete control over people minds, thoughts and behavior and I think from him the foundation of a highly controlling religoius cult was formulated.
Yes follow me for I am the anointed one, I am the FDSL, god channels his spirit directly to me, through me one achieves righteousness in the eyes of god.
What Rutherford created was a religoius publishing house that used alluring tactics of fear, exploiting people's ignorance of secular knowledge and about what the bible really says, all endeavored to exploit people for labor and money.
