  March Broadcast- Jehovah is speeding up the work

  by adjusted knowledge in

  2. friends

  i watched some of the segments on the jw broadcast.

  in the video they showed how they managed their inventory orders for the congregations.

  at the conclusion it was stated by the narrator how god is speeding up the work.. the problem is the system they implemented has been used for over two decades in logistics.

  Astrological high risk, eh? Have you considered consulting a mental health professional?

  The Dwelling manual (Bethel rulebook) says that they (GB, Branch committee, etc) like things they way they are. That right there tells you all you need to know about what they think about change and progress. Things are literally determined by what a bunch of old men want, not by what is best. I am certain that the WT entrance into the digital age was not because JEHOVAH TOLD THEM but because the GB members who were against it are now dead.

  does anyone remember those 2 songs and that movie specifically being mentioned in the watchtower?

  they were"bad" and should be avoided.

  it had to be in the late 70's or early80's.

  I think the Awake pointed out the (admittedly correct) parallels to Jesus in the movie. They also commented on its use of cursing and Halloween lol

  I do recall leafing through old magazines and Saturday Night Fever was name-dropped. Of course ET was mentioned too. I actually know some witnesses who won't watch it. If I recall I think even Pac-man is mentioned as being a 'bad video game.'

  I'm honestly surprised no one has stopped by or called to 'remind' me about the memorial. Aren't they supposed to make sure to hit up inactive people? No tract in my door either and I live right in town so I know they would have worked my neighborhood.

  Brotherly love!

  What is the youngest age you know of being DF'd?

  i doubt that nothing has greater impact then a person being df'd - reading the current thread.. i have known many kids df'd at 15, and many baptized at 10 or 11, but none df'd.. i would imagine that the minimum must be about 13.. any younger than 15?.

  Brokeback: Can you privately message me with the state of where that happened? That's literally what happened to my wife. I have no idea why she's still 'in' after something like that. She didn't scream so "she consented to it"

  JW.org Email Service - Now I've Seen EVERYTHING!!!

  by jw07 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  maybe i'm late but i just discovered that elders now have an email service run on the jw.org domain name.. those emails might contain a treasure trove of very sensitive material regarding rape, molestation, pedophilia cases etc.. the cult keeps getting creepier and creepier.

  why would they do that in this day and age, lots of damning stuff in one place?.

  Email hosting is pretty trivial. From an organizational perspective it makes sense to have correspondence sent to it than to a personal email account.

  Nothing sinister here, folks.

  yeah they'd love to have him on their legal team. i'm sure he basically has an open invitation to join. they could definitely use his insiders knowledge of the Fed. court.

  Measles, Cults and Vaccinations

  http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/quebec-rushes-to-vaccinate-against-measles-in-joliette-1.2991904.

  a member of the esprit-saint mission told cbc news reporter thomas daigle that vaccinations are against the community's beliefs and that their prophet warns them vaccines result in illness.

  the member confirmed the first cases of measles in the region originated with the community.the esprit-saint eugenics group was founded by eugene richer dit lafleche in 1913. the community purports to live by and work toward spreading the message of the third member of the trinity, the holy spirit.a former member of the community said it believes vaccines compromise people's immune systems, and that they feel protected by the spirit of dit la fleche, who died in 1925.public health officials said wednesday they believe the number of infections will continue to climb.. this article sounded interesting - i was reminded of how similar this cult's views on vaccinations are to the jws view, especially back in the 1920s to the 1950s.

  You might not wish to expose yourself to the chemicals in the vaccine, some of which are designed to make you sick (in the long run, so you won't realize why you are sick).

  You are absolutely insane. Please stop spreading tin-foil hat conspiracy theory stuff like this.
