  Rutherford's smear campaign (a must read)

  by Leolaia in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  there has been some interest recently about the moyle case, and how it may have set a precident in what became the society's disfellowshipping policy.

  in july 1939, the chief legal counsel of the watchtower bible & tract society, olin r. moyle, resigned from his position in a protest over conditions at bethel and rutherford's mistreatment of workers.

  he did not want to continue living under those conditions and he felt he could effect positive change for his brothers by taking such a stand.

  Would you go running back?

  by Nambo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if the tribulations started tomorrow, and all you knew of the bible was what the jws had told you, would you suddenly think, "they said this would happen, and it is, therefore they must be right", and go running back?.

  or would you think, "just because eventually biblical prophiesies came to pass that "they" had read you from the bible, doesnt mean they are the chosen religion, because they get all these other doctrines wrong", and know these doctrines well enough to be able to convince yourselves.. .

  replies such as "it wont happen cause its a fairy story" wont really help..

  WT and the Illuminati - truth or fiction?

  by SnowQueen in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i've been reading around this subject of late and it seems to make a lot of sense.

  i'm wondering if anyone is convinced and/or has seen anything that can substantiate or corroborate the 'facts' set out in these arguments.. http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/bloodlines/russell.htm.

  i was particularly fascinated to read the following:.

  For those of you who inactive, but not officially DFd/DAd, how do you manage?

  by undercover in

  2. friends

  i read with interest the thread about how people who are mentally out yet still attend (some) meetings manage to do continue to do it and it got me wondering, how do those of us who are completely inactive, no longer practicing members of the faith, manage to pull off our new ex-jw life, yet never invite scrutiny or investigation from former friends, elders, etc.. take me, for example.

  i've been out several years now, but have never officially renounced my faith.

  i've never out and out called it a crock of shit to anyone who could make real trouble for me.
