  Having scanned through the letter, my opinion is that this letter stinks to high heaven (pun intended) of desperation.

  Reading between the lines, the Watch Tower know the numbers are dropping and by the sounds of it are in deep do do. For example, remember Chemical Ali, the defence Minister for Iraq. He told the world Iraq was winning the war, when in fact Iraq was being destroyed.

  Another reason for this letter is because of the amount of judgements that are now going against the Watch Tower, and these judgements are being highly publicised.

  Simply put, the Watch Tower is actually running scared, and it's happening before our very eyes, personally, I think we are watching history unfold here.

  I am not one for predicting the downfall of this organization, as it is far to rich to fall overnight, however, I do think we are now seeing the org beginning the process of being on it's last legs.

  We may even see the downfall in most of our lifetime's.

  Welcome back. Donald Trump is President. How crazy is that?

  No more crazy than the governing body announcing, not once, but twice that they are not inspired, and yet the rank and file still follow them blindly.

  The positive here is that the powers that be are now starting to take notice of the extremist material that can easily traumatise a child.

  The one negative is that the child still will be subjected to Sunday meetings. I'm sure the elders will put pressure on to the parent involved, and it wouldn't surprise me if this ruling will be ignored in one way or another by the parent.

  After all, we were taught that if the government and it's agencies went against the teachings of Jehovah (insert governing body and watchtower) we were to defy the courts.

  this latest attack in manchester u.k. targeting a venue attended by mainly children and teenagers who go to a concert by their favorite singer and then to be attacked by a terroist has to be the last straw... surely ?

  22 dead at last count mainly young girls enjoying a concert of their favourite singer ?

  Yemen, being bombed on a daily basis by Saudi Arabia by the bombs Britain and the US have provided.

  Syria Being bombed on a daily basis using American and British bombs.

  Need I remind those who are spitting vile hatred of the totally illegal war in Iraq under the pretence of Weapons of Mass Destruction?

  Just because a few crazy people are killing innocent people in the name of Islam does not mean the whole of Islam is preaching hatred. And before we start pointing fingers, let's hope our countries are free from blame. Let's hope our countries are not involved in killing innocent children on a daily basis, let's hope the bombs that are dropped daily do not hit hospitals. Although unfortunately, this is not true.

  We go mad because of attacks in our country, yet we do not care about the people in the above countries. Isn't this something to be addressed?

  This is the Arena that is used by the witnesses for their summer convention. It's also where my mother will be going in a couple of months time.

  As for the cry of banning Islam, don't we realize this is exactly what the governments of the world want. By that I mean we are not heading for the global ban on religion, as we were taught. Rather the more we cry ban this ban that, the more our governments are given powers to tighten the grip on the unsuspecting citizen. In other words, we are handing these powers to the government on a platter.

  Nah, their not going to be needing urine samples, they will all be microchiped eventually. Of course, this will be so the elders can better monitor the flock when the GT starts.

  Sanderson's hate speech

  by Listener in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  gb member sanderson has given a hate speech in response to the recent russian ban.

  it was given as a morning worship rant.

  sanderson sports his usual smirk.. he opens up quoting matthew 10:22, 23 about persecution.

  Of course those in New York are going to turn this into a clear case of persecution. The ban in Russia, and the subsequent rolling out of your average pick and mix governing body member is inevitable. It's called damage control.

  So far, all I've witnesses is another western influence being banned in Russia. In my opinion, the Russian government did the right think by banning Jehovah's witnesses and calling it extreme. Just because the watchtower organisation hasn't pulled a Jim Jones, or a David Koresh ( although the latter was actually the American special forces that caused the deaths of his followers at Waco by storming the building and settings fire to it) doesn't mean it's any less dangourous. In fact, I would argue that recent events, and the reaction to this decision has actually exposed the extreme nature of the watchtower, and some of its followers.

  This blogger has asked me to show evidence of his/her hatred, only for this blogger to use the age old psychological trick of projecting onto the accusers. So I have duely replied to this blogger with examples of the hatred this blogger uses. Such as labelling those who do not agree with his/her religion.

  I urge everyone to have a gander over, as the comment in question may eventually be deleted.
