Possible Military Coup in Turkey!

by cofty in

if this does turn out to be the case it could have very serious implications.... turkey hovers between western freedom and democracy and an islamic hell.

europe has been bending over backwards to keep turkey on-side and promising it fast-tracked entry to the eu in return for it's cooperation in controlling mass migration from the east.. the situation is unclear at the moment but there are tanks on the streets....

Wonder how the new UK foreign secretary would go offering assistance to the Turkish president.

Turkish president (to UK Prime Minister Theresa May): "Will the UK honor their commitment to bring about a stable Turkish community?"

UK Prime Minister May: "I'll have our foreign secretary issue a statement on our position."

UK Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson (reading statement): "There was young fellow from Ankara, who was a terrific wankerer. Till he sowed his wild oats, with the help of a goat but he didn't even stop to thankera."

Sixty People Murdered in Nice Terror Attack

by cofty in

crowds celebrating bastille day in nice, france have been targeted by a terrorist driving a truck.. initial reports of 60 dead and 100 injured.. i am losing track of how many similar attacks there have been in europe in recently..

jwleaks

It's now 80 people dead plus the terrorist. That's 80 people too many. So sad, especially the children. God I hate religion for all the child sacrifices.

Kids continue to leave in droves - so what is the organization's grand plan? This

by sir82 in

jws have one of the worst, if not the worst, retention rates among their kids.

i've seen numbers from 65% to 88% who leave, never to return.. you'd think this would be a priority amongst the leadership, right?

where do tomorrow's leaders come from, if the vast majority of kids leave the organization?

jwleaks

What do JW children really think of the JW religion? A few years back I was having dinner with a JW family who were in the process of exiting the religion. After dinner the parents told their children that they were no longer going to the meetings. 7 year-old daughter expresses her feelings:

"Good. I hate going to the meetings. Does this mean I can join the [local] netball team?"

Child is now a very, very, very talented and aggresive netball player. She tears the court up.

Don't you mean to say you're making a Brexit.

Take care Stan. We'll always have that Eminem song. Still love your MoT plates.

Study article: "Go, and Make Disciples.." is a hot mess

by Sanchy in

jw
friends

so i hooked into meeting via phone this week to listen in and was shocked at the absurdities mentioned in the study article (2016 may watchtower: "go,..and make disciples of people of all the nations").

the answer is obvious—only jehovah’s witnesses.

the answer the missionary priest gave in no way proves that jws are the only ones "preaching the good news".

jwleaks

Without the preaching and teaching activities of Christendom over the centuries there would be no Bible and no manuscripts with which the JWs used to base their version of Christianity on. No Christendom = No Bible.

why would God and Jesus hate the united nations?

by nowwhat? in

shouldn't they say thanks for" holding down the fort" until we take over?.

jwleaks

The United Nations actually responds when the Jehovah's Witnesses cry out for help and protection from religious persecution. This of course only occurs after the JWs have prayed to Jehovah, through Jesus, for help and received no reply.

AWAKE! NO. 5 2016 - Did Jesus Really Exist?

by ttdtt in

so again we go to the quality of evidence used by the wt.. you can read the article here - https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/awake-no5-2016-october/did-jesus-really-exist/.

you see the wt refer to experts with quotes.

as is usually the case the credentials are not represented, just that they are experts (so take their word).

jwleaks

I wonder why they didn't quote from the 19th century writings of Charles Taze Russell. He believed there was enough evidence to support the existence of Jesus and wrote volumes about it.

Oh that's right ... Russell founded a religious book publishing cult who's teachings are contrary to what the JWs currently believe.

Hideout for predator

by ab.ortega in

i read this comment posted on a news site: .

if the police show up at the kingdom hall looking for a sexual predator, the elders will escort them out an emergency exist and tell them to "hide out until the coast is clear.".

is this true, is there printed instructions to support it?

jwleaks

If the police show up at the Kingdom Hall looking for a sexual predator, the elders will escort them out an emergency exist and tell them to "hide out until the coast is clear."

^^ NOT TRUE ^^

If the police show up at the Kingdom Hall looking for a [member of the Governing Body of Jrhovah's Witnesses guilty of failing to report a] sexual predator, the elders will escort them out an emergency exist and tell them to "hide out until the coast is clear."

^^ TRUE ^^

WoMD ... so where are they?

by Simon in

now, 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.

Should Tony Blair be charged with war crimes?

Maybe they should put Blair in charge of Britain's exit from the EU. The Blair Which Project.

For what it's worth I'd say Blair lacked the intelligence needed to make the correct decision.

After the next court hearing later this month, and a review of the actions of Watchtower, if they have still not complied then the court has the powers to increase the monetary sanctions. At this time a formal complaints campaign needs to be launched in the USA for the 501(c) charity status of Watchtower to be revoked.
