New tactic by the Watchtower?
by Christ Alone ini have noticed that lately everything that the watchtower "reports" is spoken of in the third person.
they take the role of "reporter" and use terms such as "they" "them" and "the witnesses".. notice this "official" report about their massive nwt braille bible:.

Media Expose's on WT Abuse Coverups
by Christ Alone inobviously this has been covered to death, but i haven't seen a comprehensive list of stories produced by the media that have been done on the recent abuse cover ups of the watchtower.
today i saw this news story from australia, and i had never seen it.
i wanted to create a thread that can constantly be updated as the media exposes the practices of the watchtower of covering up abuse.

Beards are a privilege!!!
by Christ Alone in03:27 pm etamish leader, 15 followers convicted of hate crimes in beard attackssixteen members of a breakaway amish community in rural eastern ohio, including its leader, were convicted of federal hate crimes thursday for the forcible cutting of amish men's beards and amish women's hair.. sam mullet sr. and the 15 followers were found guilty of conspiracy to violate federal hate-crime law in connection with what authorities said were the religiously motivated attacks on several fellow amish people last year.. the verdicts were read in u.s. district court in cleveland following several days of jury deliberation and a trial that began in late august, a u.s. attorney's office said.
prosecutors said the 15 followers, at mullet's instruction, shaved the beards and cut the hair of amish people who had left his group over various religious disagreements.
five attacks happened in four eastern ohio counties between september and november 2011, authorities said.. to the amish, a beard is a significant symbol of faith and manhood, and the way amish women wear their hair also is a symbol of faith, authorities said.. the assaults violated the matthew shepard-james byrd hate crimes prevention act, which "prohibits any person from willfully causing bodily injury to any person, or attempting to do so by use of a dangerous weapon, because of the actual or perceived religion of that person," according to the office of the u.s. attorney for the northern district of ohio.. november 1, 2011: cnn goes inside mullet's compound.

Do the Governing Body live like Kings?
by Christ Alone ini know it's probably been discussed by the old timers on this site, but i had never read the letter of walter salter to jf rutherford before.
i see why being the president of the society (and eventually the governing body) is such a desirable postion.
it made me wonder how much of the donated money is used for these sorts of things with the current gb.

Rutherfords view of the Holy Spirit
by Christ Alone indoes anyone have scans of these references?
this comment was taken from http://ed5015.tripod.com/jwoccultconnection58.htm.
joseph rutherford, the second president of the wts, believed his spiritual enlightenment came from angels because the holy spirit had ceased functioning since 1918. the angels channeled information into his mind from god residing on the star alcyone.
