Evidence of WTBTS bluff on why they became a NGO
by Kent inwe have on this site the official letter from the watchtower to their different branches about why they became a ngo with the un.
however, they have earlier given another explanation to one of their members, and that explanation is quite different!.
here you can read both - and make up your own mind.. .

The UN in the Watchtower 01, 2001
by Gozz inof course, the boys in writing could not foresee that there was danger lurking in the shadows before watchtower presses rolled out the december 1, 2001 issue of the watchtower.

fear has haunted mankind for centuries.

Some thoughts on the "library card" d...
by Trevor Scott inwith its "library card" defense, the wts tries very hard to minimize the significance of their relationship with the un.
according to the wts, this was actually a very trivial association, analogous to obtaining a library card - something very non-political, and something most of their members will relate to (as library card holders) and view as quite innocuous.
most jws will have no difficulty dismissing this completely out of hand.. also, without actually lying about it, the wts implies that the "criteria for association" changed.

Secret Agenda
by ItsJustMe inmore than likely this will sound like a naive question to some of you, but what is your theory as to the wbts' secret agenda?
i don't see any of them living it up....as far as i know all the governing body lives at bethel year round, eating in the cafeteria with everyone else.. what would their reason be to collect & hoard money, or belong to the un?

League of Nations-Help
by proplog2 ini used to have some information in my archives about how the watchtower once believed the world court was the wild beast and that it went into the abyss in 1914 later to come out as the league of nations.
this is important because it is an example of the techncique jw's use of sliding an interpretation around til it seems to fit.. i know they currently believe the league when into the abyss and came out as the united nations.. i am interested in the earlier interpretation.. it may have been on prominent bethelites "the list", but i can't seem to access that site.. thanks for any help.

Faithful and Discreet Servant
by erik ini came across a scripture in isaiah 43:10-12 recently and noticed it mentioned the israelites as both witnesses and also called them a servant.
does the governing body then have reason to make reference to themselves as a servant, since the israelites as a group were mentioned as a servant.. i would appreciate your thoughts on this.
