Who told them?
by aChristian inthe men who run the watchtower society tell us that jesus christ appointed them over all his belongings, spiritually speaking, in the year 1919. they point to christ's parable of "the faithful and discreet slave" found in matthew 24:45-47 to support this teaching.
my question for jehovah's witnesses is how do they know that he did?
did christ tell them he did so while appearing to them in a dream or vision?

Free Photo Drama Daily!
by Thirdson ini have a question.. the wts likes to boast about the "photo drama" produced from 1912 and shown in 1914 onwards.
there is an article again on this subject in the jan 15, 2001 watchtower (yes, i know i am milking that one watchtower i have for all it's worth!)..
a couple of comments and then my question.

Me And You, And Auntie Lou too.
by Englishman inwould it be ethical for me to give a close relative a good hearty shove to distance them from jw`s?.
a close relative of mine, lets call her auntie lou, has been a devout witness for over 50 years.
now when i say devout, i mean a blind, unquestioning obedience to the wtbts.

Manna, a celestial food?
by TheHighPriest inthis will make most of you guys think that i believe you can find god in a mushroom, that is not exactly true but what if the jews did?
what if that is what the early christians thought?
what if christianity is inspired by drug users?

Was I the FDS ?
by Simon injust a thought.... at my recent meeting with the elders they accused me of being of the 'evil slave class'.
i responded that there were not two classes as the scripture said "but if that slave..." ie.
it was still talking about the same person or class.. now, if they claim that i have become the evil slave then i must, at some point, have been the faithful and discreet slave.. but, i have never claimed to by such and i'm sure that if it was somehow bestowed upon me that i would realise it (although apparently, the governing body didn't realise it for many years, but that's a separate topic).. are they twisting scriptures to suit themselves?
