    I just read one of your posts on how the Watchtower CORPORATION always focus on the negative side ... then it got me thinking ... we have always have murder, rape, stealing, lying, idol worshipping, hatred, men laying with men, woman layign with woman, but we have never ever ever in the billions of years of the Universe and don't know how many of human history have the following (some perhaps are reinventions but nevertheless) -- did I mention FACEBOOK people?????

    These are only in America, how about around the world. There are thousands of inventions that have make life better for us, as far as the wicked heart and mind of men, that's old news ... lol ... there is nothing new about war, murder, lying, homosexualist, rape,

    So next time the family starts listing all the wrongs in the world, be prepared to counteract with these:

    All of these inventions are proof that we are living in the last days. And these investions were prophecied thousands of years ago and written down in the Bible. C.T. Russell and J.F. Rutherford were born and chosen by their heavenly brother Jesus to explain this to us - the ignorant masses.

    Thank God that we have the Governing Body (the Mothership) and their Dukes to guide us through these perilous times!!!

    I might correct the video game console to account for Computer Space, which came out in 1971. This game was not a success, but paved the way for the 1972 release of Pong, the first major video game. Very few people not into video games know about Computer Space.

    As for technology, I can attest for a lot of improvements since the late 1970s. American or not, they all originated "in the world". When I was growing up, I was riding my parents/grandparents for living in the 1950s while looking at the 1980s. Today, many jokehovians are living in the 1950s and stuck there. Since 1979, I have seen many items. Back then, we had rudimentary calculators--not the graphics calculators we now have. We had LCD watches, but nothing that could provide a crude weather station or solar battery charger. We had those lousy NiCd batteries, not the NiMH that I take for granted today (or the smart chargers I also take for granted). Compact fluorescent light bulbs were new (and far superior to the fire voucher squiggly things we have today, at least quality of the bulb). I have since gone to LED light bulbs. My flashlights are quite expensive but use rechargeable batteries (NiMH) and run with LEDs.

    Music is also advanced. In 1979, you had cassette tape. You might record off vinyl records (skip, scratch, pop) onto cassette. You needed to fuss with the bias, and the azimuth was critical. Many tapes were prone to being eaten. Now, CDs are "primitive", and I have tons of them accumulated since 1991. I also have tons of burned CDs with MP3 music (legally downloaded and otherwise--yes, I have used LimeWire until I downloaded a worm in lieu of a song), stored on mini discs instead of cassette. I never had one of those get eaten. Yes, we have crap radio stations and crap new songs--but you can download tons of music from the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s.

    About the only time technology was missed out on was while I was a jokehovian witless. I saw one idiot family cutting way back on their income so they could regular pious-sneer, and the father is the center of my former congregation. Once, back in 1987, they had most of the things a regular family had. They had a TV, a VCR (which is now replaced by DVD players which can be burned with YouTube videos), reasonably modern appliances, and so on. Once they cut back, they dumped cable (moving them back into the 1960s), and got rid of the VCR. Their record collection was a joke. (And that was in the early 1990s--it is probably worse now that they are the center of the congregation). They missed the early compact fluorescent light bulbs (back when they were decent), and they are probably missing LEDs now (they probably have those mass-produced squiggly fire vouchers). And no Internet--why dump cable only to get internet access?

    No, it is not perfect. But, having blinkers and headlights for riding a bicycle at night that are bright enough to pass for a motorcycle is better than those wimpy lights of yesteryear. Having them using NiMH batteries that can be charged after each use is better than wasting money on batteries you use until they die (almost always in the middle of a trip) and then throw away. Using LED light bulbs is better than incandescent that wastes much electricity or compact squiggly things that cannot be turned on and off without ruining the bulb. MP3 is better than skippy records, and having ready access to missing songs is better than waiting until I can make a physical trip to a record store and hoping to find them used. Being able to download off YouTube is better than the rubbish on TV, especially network TV. Mini disc is better than fussing with cassette or 8-track that seem to get eaten more than they play. Having a flashlight that uses LEDs, low self-discharge NiMH batteries, and rechargeables that do not have memory effect (if you use a good charger) is better than a light that could hold dead D batteries when you need it most. And stuffing 80 or 90 batteries in my chargers is better for a storm than running to the store on slippery or impassable roads, fighting for that last candle or D battery, and hoping they are not already out.

    And ordering online is better than writing a paper check to order from a paper form from a paper catalog, send it through snail mail, waiting 3 or more weeks, and not being able to compare 15 or 20 different stores in one session.

    and of course the above list is the commercialized successful inventions.

    the most mentally tiring task is to have to research in the US Patent office, Arlington VA.

    8 million patents, double referenced, plus microfiche, now computer rized.legal aids running copiers for court cases.

    of course it takes a good mind to deal with it,

    Einstein had to examine whether ideas in a patent application were new or not, and came up with new concepts (not patentable) himself

    Wt is stagnant because they hate innovation, out-of-the-box thinking in their claim to fame, doctrine.
