DCF, Your rant about my "disrespect" for your family is based on your imagination, not any sentiments of mine.

I have nothing but admiration for the unimaginable courage displayed at Omaha Beach, Guadacanal, Bataan, the B17 crews who flew to their destruction in 7 missions, and the infantry who slogged their way up the Italian Boot.

Sunday I spoke at a congregation in Winder, GA. A pert sister of 84 told me of her husband, murdered not long ago. Murdered for preaching the Bible in the USA. A witness I knew was hung in Texas, many of my friends have been in prison here for Christian neutrality, and I grew up expecting to go to jail because I would refuse to kill. The courage to face a prison sentence for Christian convictions doesn't equal that for charging a machine gun, but it certainly isn't cowardice.

I was with George Vella in Houston when a man challenged him as a "coward, won't fight for your country." George asked if he'd been in combat. The man stammered a negative, then George told him he had, was a Marine for 16 years, but would never fight again. He spoke for thousands of American veterans who became JWs.

Dan, you're full of anger. Which fruit of the spirit is that? What did Jesus mean: Put your sword into its sheath. All those that take the sword will die by the sword? There was a survivor near ground zero at Hiroshima: A Japanese witness in the jail cellar for refusing to fight .... Americans!

At Revelation 19:19 the Kings of the Earth and their armies fight Jesus. Read what happens to them in verse 21. You see Dan, we don't believe in war, and we'll die before we kill. Something wrong with that?

Don

Remember the post that DonM. cares for Marks feelings? How we as old "Christendom" folks have done Mark, as a Jew, very bad?
Don M.s quote was::The heinous crimes of Christendom against Jewry past and present are the fruits of a cursed tree, their doctrines are equally corrupted. I regret that you have been so disillusioned by them, ..https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=9989344

Remember what I said about broken streetlights? Seems I even remember Don mentioning the the vatican in a recent post...oh yes here it is:

The Vatican was the first to recognize Hitler's Reich as "legitimate" as you know.

Remember those streetlights? ((((I WILL GET BACK TO THIS ONE IN A LATER HISTORY LESSON)))

The first four links are just links to photocopies of the JW's Declaration of 1933.

watchtower.observer.org
watchtower.observer.org
watchtower.observer.org
watchtower.observer.org

The next link is the English translated JW's Declaration link. SO THAT ALL KNOW, I AM JUST LINKING THIS... AM NOT TYPING IT MYSELF. I DO NOT REPRESENT THE SITE IT COMES FROM AND KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE SITE OTHER THAN USING IT TO LINK THE DECLARATION. if the site itself contains other material offensive to some I am not affiliated in any way with it,

watchtower.observer.org

Of particular note right now is this paragraph:

<<<<"It is falsely charged by our enemies that we have received financial support for our work from the Jews. Nothing is farther from the truth. Up to this hour there never has been the slightest bit of money contributed to our work by Jews. We are the faithful followers of Christ Jesus and believe upon Him as the Savior of the world, whereas the Jews entirely reject Jesus Christ and emphatically deny that he is the Savior of the world sent of God for man's good. This of itself should be sufficient proof to show that we receive no support from Jews and that therefore the charges against us are maliciously false and could proceed only from Satan, our great enemy.
"The greatest and most oppressive empire on earth is the Anglo-American empire. By that is meant the British Empire, of which the United States of America forms a part. It has been the commercial Jews of the British-American empire that have built up and carried on Big Business as a means of exploiting and oppressing the peoples of many nations. This fact particularly applies to the cities of London and New York, the stronghold of Big Business. This fact is so manifest in America that there is a proverb concerning the city of New York which says: 'The Jews own it, the Irish Catholics rule it, and the Americans pay the bills.' We have no fight with any of these persons mentioned, but, as the witnesses for Jehovah and in obedience to his commandment set forth in the Scriptures, we are compelled to call attention to the truth concerning the same in order that the people may be enlightened concerning God and his purpose.>>>>

Don M? no anger, ((by the way one of your last posts said that a man in Texas was hanged recently? )) Who was it? and what newspaper can I read about it?))

More history later....
