I think you should learn the difference between the extermination camps and concentration camps. Watchtards were nothing but free Labour and had a better survival rate was much than getting sent to the front line, especially the Soviet front which was hell on earth.

11CLAM Video - re Erich Frost (Apr 17-23 2017)
by Nicholaus Kopernicus ini normally don't bother going to the midweek jw meetings much.
however, upon reading in the april 2017 meeting workbook that there was to be a video about erich frost (former do for saxony & nazi prisoner in sachsenhausen concentration camp) i wanted to attend as i had read about this brother in history texts by detlef garbe and hans hesse.
i had also visited auschwitz several times and noted that the museum had a display / exhibition about jehovah's witnesses.

I have come to the conclusion that baby-sitting the ss children while they were putting babies in ovens isn't quite as noble as the watchtards like to think it is.
I am so sick of hearing about the brave witnesses if WW2. Collaborating cowards.

How old are you?
There is a point where it is really none of their business. So what, you get marked. All it means is you can't hang with a bunch of phonies.
One meeting a month. Come late, leave early.

The Ultimate Conversion
by Etude inone thing that surprised me shortly after joining this site was the number of individuals who, after experiencing the deception of being a jw and the hypocrisy of the “truth”, switched to being catholic or “born-again” evangelists.
it seemed to me like jumping from the hot pan into the fire.. i don’t want to piss anyone off for his or her choices.
i feel everyone is free to believe what they may.

Is it just me or is this weeks CLAM more "cultish" than usual?
by NikL inmaybe it was my mood, but last night the meeting seemed really over the top cultish.. mainly the latter portion that just focused on presentation videos which always seem creepy to me anyway.. then the local needs was pre-empted by a video all about ldc which seemed completely pointless.
(on a side note my wife knew a couple of different people in it).
the congregation "bible" study which dealt with the ever changing cover of the watchtower magazine.

It's deliberately mocking the rank and file with a friendly reminder the new testament isn't written for them.

Christians have always operated under restrictions in some of the shady ex communist, communist and Muslim parts of the world.
The sad part is other churches have figured out how not only survive but thrive. Doing ex reach work, feeding Programs, house churches etc.
I have little sympathy for people who feel the need to be annoying telemarketers with a very pompous and annoying message.

I just love how they dance around this issue and never really teach what the society believes.
Jesus died for seven men in new York and though your works and obedience to this men you will be saved.
