We are becoming champions of grief. We lost twin B.

by Darkknight757 in

last week we had a reassurance ultrasound with our ob.

she was just supposed to check heartbeats on the two little ones and they were going strong!

but because she had extra time and she can be quite anal about her work (which is a good thing) she decided to take some measurements.

i'm a little dumb struck to see that donald trump's first cross word against russia are in support of the jws.. http://fox-news24.com/trump-warns-russia-over-jehovahs-witnesses-ban-and-urges-members-to-seek-asylum-in-the-us/.

is this because trump genuinely values freedom of religion?

or is it because his son in law jared kushner has financial dealings with the jws?

Watchtower in Australia - Number of Corporations

by Onager in

can anyone link me the thread where the number of watchtower companies in australia was compared to other religions?

my search-fu is weak this morning.

cheers!.

Try the following link which is from the Australian Child Abuse Royal Commission which will help you with part of your query. See page 18 (facsimile copy below) of the final finding re: JWs and Watchtower.

http://www.childabuseroyalcommission.gov.au/getattachment/c2d1f1f5-a1f2-4241-82fb-978d072734bd/Report-of-Case-Study-No-29

Add to the 821 legal entities the following:

Watchtower Bible & Tract Society of Australia Ltd (branch office)
Watchtower Travel Ltd (a travel company that is set up allowing it to receive financial kickbacks from conventions and hotel accomodation)
Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses Ltd (set up in up 2013 to deflect child abuse lawsuits and to protect the assets - this corporation is operated differently from the corporation of the same name registered in the USA)

By having each congregation registered this means the three elders who are registered as trustees have accepted all legal responsibility on behalf of Watchtower and the governing body.

"Jehovah's Witnesses", the religion in itself, does not exist as a legal entity. Technically and legally speaking it exists only in the minds of people who claim they are 'Jehovah's Witnesses'.

Ghost image of the Apostle Paul appears on Google maps

by jwleaks in

i found this ghost image on google maps of the apostle paul walking on one of his missionary journeys through the region now known as turkey.. evidently the google map car was able to capture the spiritual afterglow of the apostle paul while he was walking along a roadway on his one of his missionary journeys.

interestingly the google mapping computer was able to create an overlapping image from the first century and from the twenty-first century.. .

JW news release and deception - The "High-Profile Case" in Russia

by jwleaks in

i found this interesting bit of news release propaganda by the jws on their website dated april 5, 2017.. "russia's supreme court begins high-profile case against jehovah's witnesses".

https://www.jw.org/en/news/releases/by-region/russia/supreme-court-begins-case-against-jehovahs-witnesses/.

my interest was piqued by the jw claim that the court hearing is a "high-profile case".

jwleaks

In the OP, and some of my earlier posts, I made mention about the JWs and Watchtower resorting to both propaganda and misleading information in their portrayal of the Russian Supreme Court hearing into banning the organization.

Below is a screen shot from the July 2017 study issue of The Watchtower magazine which, ironically, warns readers to be careful regarding "the use of biased or misleading information to manipulate the way people think." An example of which has been clearly evidenced in this forum discussion as it relates to Watch Tower's deceptive use of images of the Russian Supreme Court. What they portrayed as the truth vs reality were poles apart. A clear case of dangerous propaganda.

Jesus Christ dead for three days and three nights really?

by Crazyguy in

has anyone done a detail research on this subject?

the gospels seem to contradict one another and christians apologists have a bunch of different ways to try to explain away the problems.

has anyone have a concrete explanation for or against him truly being dead three days and three nights as the story goes?.

jwleaks

According to the bible Jesus was dead the equivelent of 0.5 spiritual seconds. How? The bible says that according to jehovah a thousand years is as one day. Therefore three days equals 0.5 seconds.

Just in case anyone missed it, in the real picture of the court hearing, centre left in the seats, the bald headed obese man with the double-neck is none other than governing body member of Jehovah's Witnesses, the supreme spiritual JW Russian leader, Mark Sanderson. The photo below of Sanderson was also taken inside the Russian court room.

Thanks doubtfull1799 for the photo identification. A large full size of the photo also appears at this address:

https://assetsnffrgf-a.akamaihd.net/assets/m/702017110/univ/art/702017110_univ_lsr_xl.jpg

Below is a cropped section of the photo clearly showing Russian President Vladimir Putin.

What on earth was Watch Tower and the JWs thinking in depicting President Putin as personally presiding over the first day of the Russian Supreme Court case into the banning of Jehovah's Witnesses.

First the governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses launch a worldwide campaign among followers of the church to bombard President Putin, with potentially millions of letters, to try and stop the hearing before the Russian Supreme Court. When that fails they then publish an 'official' image falsely depicting President Putin as personally presiding over the Supreme Court case.

Talk about incompetence.

The below screenshot is from Watch Tower's official description of the first day of the trial. It has been translated from Russian into English. Interstingly, tbe JWs have claimed that "a little less than 250 people were left on the street waiting for the results of the hearing." Doesn't seem to be any uni students in that claim. The official JW hearing summary leads one to believe that Watch Tower and the JWs were expecting a result on the first day back on April 5. They were mistaken. Today is April 20 in Moscow and the case is still going on. I wonder if the journalists, representatives of international organizations, and foreign embassies are still attending?
