  Thank you to all the posters who created new threads about beards.

  I didn't see that one coming. Why have they done it I wonder? Could it be to save themselves from potential legal recriminations from those treated badly/held back if they dared to wear a beard...

  Legal reasons seems to be the reason for everything they do these days.

  The initial question reminded me of when I worked for a really nice family of Jewish Tailors and retailers with about six shops a long time ago.

  They went a bundle on Christmas trees, lights and decorations in all their shops.

  They knew I was a JW back then but didn't seem to mind.

  I asked them how they felt about Christmas as Jews (as obviously JW shop owners couldn't decorate their businesses with Xmas stuff without an instant visit from the elders)-

  They said IT'S ALL JUST ABOUT THE BUSINESS AND THE MONEY FOR US!

  They were nice people. Very honest, hardworking and good to their staff.

  I just looked over some of the recent comments he actually allows to be published on his 'Lloyd Evans - The Aftermath' upload.

  Even those who are reasonably positive and offer fairly constructive comments are treated to quite caustic and smug replies from Lloyd...

  “You know how I know that they're finished out there? The carts.”

  by Athanasius in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the watchtower's many legal problems and the jws' use of carts in their preaching work, reminded me of a scene and dialog from the film patton.. in a scene where patton is viewing a battle site the morning after, he says to an aide about the nazis: “you know how i know that they're finished out there?

  in my dreams i saw the carts.

  they kept buzzing around in my head and i couldn't figure out why.

  FDS 1919 Declaration Date

  by NotFormer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  did rutherford have any "prophetic" justification for 1919 as the date that jesus declared him (ahem, the wt organisation) the fds?

  such as some calculation attached to 1914?

  that in 1919, jesus would come looking for his true organisation?.
