  Manchester Assembly Hall

  by Lostandfound in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  many years ago, the managers house was sold, and two flats built, high up above the stage, one for the manager (then derek carter) and one for the district overseer, a redundant position now.

  who has the flats now.. also the figures on the charity commissions site, show the hall operating at a loss, surely not..

  Brief Encounter

  by snugglebunny in

  2. friends

  the witnesses knocked on my door yesterday.

  a married couple, 70's probably, and introduced themselves by giving their first names and stating that they were jehovah's witnesses.. it's 5+ years since we left our old address and moved a few hundred yards away.

  no-one visited us back then.

  Question—does anyone know...?

  2. child-abuse

  most here are familiar with the history of the child abuse issue.

  one past policy the org had was forbidding parents to report the child abuser to police or warn other parents in the congregation of the abuser.

  they used to threaten dfing if such parents disobeyed the org in this matter.

  What Do You Think Will Be The Next Big Change In The Watchtower?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i think there will be a change in the 144000 belief.

  too many witnesses think they have a heavenly hope.

  maybe 1914 will be discarded too.. what is your watchtower prediction?

  The case of Jamal Khashoggi

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. current

  just been catching up on the case of jamal khashoggi.. khashoggi was a saudi journalist who 'went missing' on 2 october after visiting the saudi consulate in istanbul.. he visited the consulate in order to get paperwork that confirmed he was divorced from his ex-wife and free to marry his turkish fiancée.. the details that are emerging are harrowing and show just how barbaric the saudi regime is.. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6288131/jamal-khashoggis-apparent-murder-follows-disappearance-three-exiled-royal-princes.html.

  these assassins are the kinda people my government (uk) and other western governments are doing business with, propping up, and acting all smiley with in front of the cameras.. i suddenly feel the need to take a shower ....

  What happened to the "New World Order"?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so as a child and youth growing up as a witness, (i'm 43 now) we often heard the expression "new world order".. the society just doesnt use that expression anymore.

  so what was the reasoning behind them amending that expression?.

  my wife (uber) mentioned today an elderly man who comes to the kh and he suffers from a sever stomach complaint which needs surgery and that there is a 'waiting list' at the local hospital.. so i says, "why dont the elders put the $$ together to get his op done privately.

  " (ie out of the govt system and 'waiting lists').

  her answer was telling.
