  Lets hope the G.B.never learn from their mistakes , refusing to comply with court instructions.

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  with the recent case of the watchtower hierarchy defying the court to either produce documents relating to child sex abuse claims within their organisation, and also refusing to produce a governing member to appear in court to answer questions , not only shows their arrogance and defiance of the law , they also show their contempt of the judicial system of the usa .. arent they supposed to be obeying the bible injunction ?

  " pay back ceasers things to ceaser ?".

  "when you are hailed before the courts , i will put words in your mouth ?".

  Has the "Shepperd the Flock" book been brought in to bear in these pedophile cases? Oh, the irony of it all.

  by breakfast of champions in

  2. beliefs

  this is the scuttlebutt in one of the "bethel congregations" by us.. no details as to exactly what this "faith-testing" announcement might be.. anyone else hear any of this pre-zone visit hype?.

  Alphaman: really, "Fight the Satanic attack on God's Org. with...money"? How could they scripturally sell this line of reasoning?

  Even if the WTS wins its appeals, it loses

  by sir82 in

  the thought occurs to me that even if the wts wins its appeals, it loses.. suppose that conti, lopez, the other 8 cases tied to campos, and even dozens more cases to come are overturned on appeal.. (1) the wts will have built a reputation of secrecy & mishandling.

  a lone crackpot or 2 might file a case against a big corporation in hopes of getting something out of a settlement, but if there are dozens & dozens of litigants, most of whom prefer to go to court to air the "dirty laundry" instead of seeking a settlement, what does that say?.

  (2) it's not exactly an appealing message for the wts to say "ha ha!

  I don't think you will see Loesch take the stand, he would flee the country instead.

  OneEyedJoe: "I somehow doubt that many JWs will be affected personally by the news." The average JW does not keep up with current events and only glances at CNN or network news to check for a newsflash saying: "Breaking news from Rome, blue-helmeted troops move on the Vatican." Aside from that, they are oblivious.

  Find What Your Social Status Was in the Congregation

  by Mary in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ever notice how the "happiest people on earth" are also the most class-oriented?

  the social structure in the congregation is more complex than the blueprints of a nuclear warhead, but just so that you "remember your place", see if you can find where your niche was/is:.

  1. at the top of the social order of things within the congregation is of course, the presiding overseer and his family.

  Spot on analysis. Although I did see a case where a born-in #1 completed a University degree with the first few years completed at an out of state University. This young man's father, a prominent and wealthy long-time elder saw to it that his son was quickly appointed MS. Clearly an example of #1 trumping automatic demotion to #8.

  Awake! to be part of Watchtower Public Edition!

  by Atlantis in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  this was posted on a jw site and it would be nice if we could verify.. .. .. as of february 2015, the awake!

  will come as a part of the watchtower public edition instead of as a separate magazine.

  this is a huge change... with serious cost savings.

  Ballistic: I believe you are referring to the tails of scorpions symbolising the scathing rebuke the magazines inflict when left behind with the clergy and members of Christendom. Good grief that's crazy.
