Sorry, Mr. Camping -- Watchtower already owns the New Light phrase

    Wow! Two of those positions have not been included in my essay on doctrinal flip-flops. I will be adding the WT 1967, p 409 (no resurrection) and the Awake! 1974, Oct 8, p. 20 (yes, resurrection)

    To repeat -- that brings the number of different Watchtower-published teaching positions to 8 -- go ahead, count them like I just did. If you are a JW lurker I encourage you to get out your own Watchtower CD library and check them for yourself. No, you won't find the first two as the CD only begins with 1950. But after you find the final 6 I suspect you will be motivated enough to dig for yourself those earlier publications -- if you think you need 2 more.

    Please note that the video incorrectly ascribes the latter AWAKE! quotation to WT 1974 Oct 15, p 20. It took a bit of research this morning on my WT Library CD to uncover that one but I'm glad I persisted.

    Please pass that on to the original author of that video as I'm sure he/she will be most happy to make a correction to that otherwise great illustrative tool.

    Thanks, I passed on the information to the author of the video. I looked at your essay, very excellent. That video, if anything, just shows how freaken hillarious they are and shows that they seem to just be making it up as they go.
