What an article. Talk about no research. Did the author just call up the JW PR department and copy down everything they told him?

Yes, the Watchtower Society promoted the fact that the poor Witnesses in the African country of Malawi were being persecuted because they were told by the Watchtower not to buy a political I.D. card. If they did the Watchtower would disfellowship them and they would lose all contact with their families. So the honorable brothers and sisters of Malawi refused to buy the political I.D. cards and suffered at the hands of the ruthless Malawi government.

Now, while the Malawians were upholding the fine principles put forth by the Watchtower, at the same time in Mexico it has been documented by letters from the Watchtower Brooklyn office, that brothers were being allowed to pay bribes to Mexican officials so they could stay out of the Mexican military service. Hmmm, something smell funny? I wonder if the poor Malawian brothers and sisters knew of this? What do you think?

As someone else has probably already pointed out, Sister Williams will receive certain "privileges" that other JW's don't because of her status and probable donation amount to the Watchtower Society. I believe it was her sister Venus who wrapped herself in the U.S. flag and ran around the stadium after winning a gold medal in a previous Olympics years ago. That act would have gotten any other JW disfellowshiped (excommunicated) but not her. Remember, this is the very flag that they are not allowed to salute, and cannot even stand for the National Anthem. Hypocrites.

Jehovah's Witnesses do nothing for their country. If terrorists were marching down the streets killing your neighbors, JW's would do nothing, except maybe consort with the enemy. They call themselves a charity, but they help no one but their own...and they don't even do that well. Their "mother" organization is too money hungry and evil to allow many funds to be used for good.

As a former presiding overseer for a congregation in northern California I find the Watchtower to be one of the most deceitful and injurious of supposed "religious" institutions that has ever been devised. Next time, do a little research before you spout the Watchtower PR crap verbatim
