    Eyewitnesses have described Fred Franz as speaking to his feet, so my guess is that the holy spirit visited Freddy through a hole in his sock.

    Actually there is a very logical explanation about how the holy spirit communicates with the Governing Body. It uses the very same method it did when it informed each one that they were one of the 144,000 anointed ones and would have "a heavenly hope."

    That seems perfectly reasonable to me.

    Next question...

    He reaches down, grabs the GB by their collar and slaps the shight out of them all the while yelling, "I thought I told YOU!"

    Since jayhoover is such a good wife beater he can strike without leaving a mark, and he never really does say anything but I thought I told you, the GB doesn't know what to do so they just repeat the message by beating the shight out of the rest of the slaves while yelling, "I thought I told YOU!"; ‘cause that's the way they were taught.

    Well at first, it was through thunder and trembling mountains. Sometimes an angelic representative would come along and speak in a reasonble human-like voice---when god wasn't in the mood for drama. All messages received in a prophetic trance were reliable. If there were still questions, Urim and Thummim were quite handy, but have been replaced by the Eight Ball. With the invention of the answering machine, I had hoped that god could simply leave messages, and some have received messages from dead relatives, but it appears god has not utilized this option much. Then there is email. But god seems to be a luddite. But with time, and when Michael can reset his passwords for him, I'm hoping for some youtube videos.

    You shouldnt laugh. What you describe is basically the same methodology that the ancient Persians used when they had a difficult problem to solve and needed help. They would get drunk and then remember the next day the answer that God gave them.

    I dont believe anyone would have worshipped a false god after seeing a whole mountain shake and a voice from heaven speak with lightning and so on. The author of the text claims that happened but the actions of the Hebrews and the golden calf tell a very different story. Im going to say something outrageous and state for the record i believe Moses was half lying with a bit of religious leader showmanship and fancy words that stretch the truth.

    Perhaps the ancient Jewish priests had the secret knowledge of where to acquite these magic all knowing 8 ball rocks, are we to believe that the GB now have them ? Do they have the ark as well ?

    Its funny how the WT say god bans diniviation but the Jewish priests including Aaron himself used divination.
