  LDC or Regional Building Committee?

  so i saw on instagram from one of the major uber elders from everett wa posted a picture of where he was staying for the week long safety training the ldc was putting on.

  well this "suite" had a full bar for one thing and everything else was quite fancy!

  he was complaining about losing $$ for a week since he had to go to this training but the accommodations were wonderful.

  Charles T Russell -a freemason and the connection to the illuminati...

  by dolphman in

  ok, i'm not one for conspiracy theories but lately i've uncovered some interesting facts that i think warrant some attention.. first of all, russell was a freemason.

  all the early watchtower and books he authored have freemason symbology and art throughout them.

  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, .

  Agreed.

  Except he was buried under a pyramid. It's true that the pyramid isn't technically his gravestone, it is the most prominent feature nearby.

  i remember like it was yesterday.

  my dad pounding his fist on the kitchen table and gritting his teeth as he tells me to get out!

  he kicked me out of his house.

  Kicking your kid out the house because of their religion is just as wrong as kicking them out because they want to leave. He was supposed to be the mature one.

  in retrospect: RBCs vs LDCs / the hype about a lot of new construction and subsequent abrupt halt to construction

  by Magnum in

  so, now that some time has passed, i’d like some input/thoughts/analysis/etc.

  on the jw construction situation in the last few years.. first, why did they discontinue the rbc arrangement and institute the ldc arrangement?

  was it for more and/or better control?

  Things do not arise in a vacuum...there is something that told the man that it was okay to profit off "the brothers".
  

  I do wonder how much this goes on throughout the organization and not just with construction.

  Hollywood messed up another one

  i am a big superhero fan and was looking forward to "the defenders".

  the first two episodes are great but then ... liberalism happens.

  one of the heroes (luke cage, big black guy) goes on this crazy rant, like a liberals wet dream of the bravehearth speech.

  What else would a character like Luke Cage say to someone like Danny Rand and be authentically in character? What other perspective would Luke Cage have?

  Marvel has tended to have a liberal bent...which is probably why I love it. The first black superhero...Black Panther, a blind superhero, a superhero in a wheelchair (Professor X who seems allegorical to Martin Luther King), ect, ect...

  I supposed one could point to characters in Marvel with a more conservative bent, like Punisher. You might want to check that series on Netflix later this year.

  What Is the JW Belief Regarding the Millennium?

  by Cold Steel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  most christian religions believe it will be a thousand-year period of peace.

  jws, however, seem to believe in the resurrection and then life on paradise earth.

  but do they believe in the millennium the way other christians do -- where the lion will lay down with the lamb [bzzzt...mandela effect correction] wolf will lay down with the lamb?

  Cold Steel:

  You mentioned the Book of Abraham, but now the source has been examined, it turned out to be the Egyptian book of the dead.

  Speaking for myself, I'm not threatened by you or anyone speaking about their LDS beliefs. Of course, not to be mean, but I don't think in this information age, there is any danger of anyone converting after factchecking.

  The internet has proven a challenge to both the JW and Mormon religions.
