Are dubs sicker than average?
by SpiceItUp inmy mom is always complaining of something or another every week.
she is not that old and is in fairly good health.
she eats good and gets moderate exercise but she always has something wrong with her.. do you think that dubs get sicker than normal people cause of stress or maybe their body just overwhelmed with all the requirements finally says ok...if it takes you being sick to rest then you'll be sick?.

The Chicago Rebellion
by onacruse inas rutherford progressively tightened his grip over the "companies" (as congregations were then termed), he ran into increasing difficulty with "russellite hold-overs" and elective elders.
he'd already infiltrated the companies with his brooklyn-appointed "service directors," but many many jws were resisting his attempts to enforce total conformity to wts policies.
chicago was one such "hot spot," leading to the following show-down:1933 watchtower, may 15 page 153. .

WoMD ... so where are they?
by Simon innow, the war is over, the weapons were not used and of course have not been found.. how threatening could they be if they did not even use them when being invaded by a massive force (of the countries they hate)?!
perhaps, as many suspect, they didn't use them because they didn't have them?.
now we're being told that we'll have to be patient and give them time to find them.

we all know about the ever-changing doctrine of the wtbts and the occasional hypocrisy of some of its members, but does not god see beyond these matters and examine the heart of the vast majority of jw's who believe in christ and try to be christians albeit following the faulty leadership of the wt?
in other words does not the good outweigh the bad?.
