Jehovah's Witnesses believe UN will ban Religion, page 3

I'm amazed that I'd never heard of a Secret Book, but then again I was young. I always thought they just gathered in a room and had some sort of caucus. Any thoughts on WTS founder?

No, the Elders of the JW church are chosen for their ability to 1: follow instructions, and 2: intimidate with speaking. If they had to think for themselves, it'd be a disaster. The Elders do not have enough collective brainpower to judge anything. They are drones and the Governing Body is the Queen Bee.

As for Charles Taze Russell, he was no different than a whole other bunch of zealots from the end of the 1800s. There's said to be some occult significance to the Russell name but who knows. Sure he did some dumb things and said some dumb things but the Watchtower has distanced themselves so much from him that it's hard to see the two as one anymore. The corporation took over after Russell and Rutherford died. Corporations are people, at least in the US.

ATS member Masonic Light graciously found me this link: radio.indymedia.org... ...It is the book written by Fritz Springmeyer called "The Watchtower and the Masons". It'll make great reading for anyone curious about CT Russell. (Thanks again ML!)

Wisconsin, your posts are striking a chord in me. Thanks for your input here.

My parents and sisters are still JWs and I leave them alone out of respect but also because it's too painful to look at them and see the brainwashing in their faces and voices. Really, when it comes down to it, my parents were hippies who got seduced by the JWs lack of racial tension. Once they saw an integrated church with blacks and whites in harmony (cult harmony of course), they were sold on everything the Watchtower was saying. My dad was made an elder pretty quick and then it was one rule after another. I still love the guy tho', just not what the church made him into.

I am glad for many things from my JW upbringing although there would have been better ways to raise me, my parents did a good job. I was raised without racism and with general goodwill toward mankind. I think 95% of the JW rank-and-file also share these traits. BUT they are lying when they say that they produce better humans because the TRUTH is that 30% of their kids get kicked out due to misconduct. Not to mention those who take more drastic action. I once told my mother, "You know what I wish? I wish the Watchtower would somehow memorialize the thousands of JW kids who have killed themselves because of some simple sin they committed and were afraid of the shunning they'd face." ...Needless to say that line didn't go over well.

Suicide is probably the most touchy topic in the church, well next to the molestation issue now.

Anyway, as we can see here, the demonization of the UN is just another of their plans and has nothing to do with what their real aims are. One possibility is that the org. is connected at very high levels and it is a model for the future "world religion" which will be mandated by law after "Armageddon" where 80% of the population are killed. Another theory says that the Watchtower is just another blind group bobbing on the waves of religon.

I tend to go with the first theory because the Watchtower church hides much more than people realize. I knew at least one JW who was in the witness protection program and I am CERTAIN that there are other agents seeded inside the group who are not believers but who use the groups door-to-door activity for nefarious purposes. It's just too easy to join, and then as a JW you get legal access to every American's front doorstep with no questions asked. From an espionage standpoint, joining the JWs would be quite useful, so long as you could fake it and sit through the weekly indoctrination sessions.

The UN is congruous with a one world religion idea and we see from the link I posted above that the JWs have colluded with the UN so perhaps a form of the JW church would be the template for that one world religion? In some ways I see the JWs as like the poor Jews who got left behind by their Zionist jewish pals and died in the deathcamps. Sold out, is the term I'm looking for. I think the JWs are sheep which will be sold to slaughter. There will be key JWs who live, but every obedient JW is essentially owned body and soul, by that church and so I think that these rank and file members are seen as disposable and could be useful as martyrs.
