what is “the end of the world”?the phrase “the end of the world,” which appears in many bible translations, can also be rendered as “the conclusion of the system of things,” or “the close of the age.” (matthew 24:3;english standard version) it refers, not to the destruction of the earth or of all humanity, but to the end of the framework of human society.—1 john 2:17.. conveniently leaving out that according to current numbers and doctrine, 8.000.000 people will survive at max.. technically is not a destruction of all humanity....but it comes so close it deserves to be mentioned.. of course it isn't mentioned, because that would sound so extreme, cultish and unkind.
we wouldn't want people to get the right ideas about jw.organization now, would we?.
More misleading content on JW.org
Who expects Watchtower to tell the truth?..
Watchtower is caught in lies on a regular basis...... JWs regularly lie for the WBT$..
..........................................
The only people who don`t know,everyone else knows.....The Watchtower and JW`s Lie..
Are the Watchtower and JWs..

hello forum.
i started this topic because i had been thinking recently about a story that i had heard many times in different congregations over the years.
kind of a jw urban legend if you will.
Jehovah protects his people. Did he ever protect you?
..................
...........
in the 1960's, when i was most active as a jehovah's witness, it was a different, more relaxed religion.
we were filled with confidence about our "truth" because we were skilled in rebuttal, overcoming objections, and we encouraged tough questions to test our mettle in the door to door work.. when an anti-dub book like "30 years a watchtower slave" was released, we all couldn't wait to read it and comment about it.it was seen as a pathetic effort at spite--never as a serious threat to our confidence in what we had.. so--what was different about the jw religion and our skillset back then from the watchtower world of paranoia and enforced loyalty today?i think i know.. we were like boxer george foreman before ali knocked him out.
we were mike tyson before buster douglas introduced his face to the canvas in that ring in japan.we were bullet proof.. not until you have a bone-shaking reckoning do you lose confidence and wonder, "wtf just happened?
The Watchtower leaders are afraid of our elephants
I was young and working at the zoo..
My Head got Stuck in an Elephants Bum..

i thought that photos weren't allowed as proof of sin to the jc because they can be faked.
same with audio recordings.. this thread in response to the pale.emporer thread where his sister-in-law snooped on his computer, found his info from here and took pictures of it.
if the photos and recording are not allowed for a jc, this could be valuable info to anyone else who has a sneaky relative trying to 'out' them with photos or recordings.. anyone have any info on this?.
Are photos allowed as evidence at a JC?
Azor..
Attacking People of Faith..
Who aren`t "Literally" trying to kill you..
Harm you in some way and/or demand you accept their beliefs ..
Is insane..
If all they want to do is share their Faith.....You can always say no and walk away..
...................................
There are Theists and Atheists who will Never give You a Moments Rest..
They`re Both Crazy..
A jihadist would kill you,your family and any body else around you..
Just for having a different belief..
I`m not good with that.....Just so You Know..
It's about dumping on people that decry challenging beliefs. Many of these people are atheists.....azor
Meh..
Atheist Fanatics are as bad as Theist Fanatics..
2 sides of the same coin..
At some point,you have to agree to disagree..
You can`t maintain a war against opposers to your beliefs/faith..
Without eventually having "real casualties" at some point....
Seriously azor..
I don`t usually give a shit about stupid posts/threads..
But..Jihad??!!...Thats friggin Insane!!..
I have no faith and no beliefs..
Dumping on people who do,gets old..Really old..
Some people have made it a hobby/"their life" on this forum..
There`s more to life ,than dumping on people with faith..
I`m with Simon..
