  TooBad TooSad

  During the congregational bookstudy last night there was a picture of paradise with a little girl holding a plastic bucket. I asked my wife if there is going

  to be polution in paradise? Of course the answer is no!!!!!. I asked her where did the plastic bucket come from? To make this bucket you will need plastic

  injection molding machines. The cast iron castings that make these molds can weigh up to 3,000#. Which means that you will need foundries to make the

  molds which means that we will need pig iron, manganese, magnesium, silicon and sand. Who is going to dig up the paradise earth to get all of this stuff

  out of the ground? Who is going to make the earth moving equipment to dig these minerals out of the ground? Who is going to process the ores to get the

  final elements foundries need to make the castings that will be machined to make the molds to make the plastic bucket? Who is going to make all of the machines

  that do the machining? How are we going to transport the 3,000# castings to get them to the machine shops? Will there we trucks and roads? Who is

  going to maintain the roads? Who is going to make the road paving equipment? I doubt if elephants will just use their trucks to pick up the castings.

  Then we have the problem of what are we going to use for power to melt the castings for the molds and to machine the molds for the buckets? Are we going to

  have electricty or oil? Will there be oil refineries or coal fired electrical generators. Who is going to drill for the oil or mine the coal not to mention who is going

  make all of the eqiupment to do this. The picture I just painted sounds like what we have now. Maybe we are in paradise. Mayabe it will just be easier if we don't

  have plastic buckets in paradise. The final answer my wife gave me of where did the plastic bucket come from was "maybe Jehovah will just snap his fingers

  and it will be there." Now you can see why you can not reason with witnesses. They have a fairytail dream. This really is TooBad and TooSad.

  I think jws should be required to watch "Dirty Jobs" and "Mythbusters", having said that it wouldn't matter cuz it would just go over their heads.

  You could as well have asked about the little girl. How long will there be children around if nobody is dying?

  Children, plastic buckets, beach balls, the list of "what's wrong with this pictures?" is endless. "Maybe he will just snap his fingers." Hahahahahaha. It makes me wonder if people in the art department are just that dumb or if there are some renegade artists painting this stuff in the pictures to get some to think.

  Nope, they are just that dumb.

  Haahaha.
  
  
  I remember one of my first realizations of the simple-mindedness and lack of simple logic possessed many JWs, otherwise very intelligent.
  
  I remember telling someone we would have different names for the days of the week in the New System.
  
  Of course, they answer: "We don't know what will happen in the New System!"
  
  I answer: "But whatever happens, it HAS TO MAKE SENSE. Currently, we use names based on pagan gods! It only makes sense that we will change the names!
  We aren't going to continue to refer to Woden's Day and Thor's Day and Moon's Day and Tiw's Day. Everything has to make sense!"

  We aren't going to continue to refer to Woden's Day and Thor's Day and Moon's Day and Tiw's Day. Everything has to make sense!"

  Those would become, "Russelsday, Judgesday, Knorrsday, Franzday, Hinchelsday, Jaraczday, and Jehovahsday. How many scriptures say something about what will happen in Jehovahsday?

  Notice no mention of Jesusday.

  Come now!

  Surely you must know that plastic bucket was a leftover from Armageddon, plucked from the gnarled fingers of a decomposing 3 year old child who happened to have the misfortune of being born just a bit too early to parents who rejected the stuttering, slurred magazine presentation of a pimple-faced thirteen-year-old "unbaptized publisher".

  Just as the Israelite's sandals didn't wear out for 40 years, plastic buckets won't wear out for 1000 years, until humans reach perfection and can create their own plastic, pollution-free.

  Right?

  I love the "snapping fingers" theory (SFT). Makes you wonder why the big J hasn't been snapping his fingers all along. Why make Noah build an ark and collect the several billion species of animals? Big J could have simply "snapped" and vaporized all the wicked without resorting to the messy method of a worldwide flood.
  
  I think most JWs believe SFT is what will allow them to live in their dream houses after Armageddon (after previous owners are conveniently removed). No electricity, clean water or sanitation system? No problem -- SFT! Kid needs a plastic bucket to play in the sand? SFT! JWs with no functioning brains? SFT! No, wait, it doesn't work for braindead dubs.
