Better than the "Revalation" book again. I remember studying that I think two times and thinking how in the heck did they come up with that?

Room 215
Hey Eyeslice: What's to stop them from scheduling a repeat of Isaiah after the Daniel drivel? They've conditioned the dubs to persevere mindlessly clock-watching as they slog through this drivel ``to time indefinite"!

They didn't put out any new books this year, did they? I wonder if they will next year. Awake can be written by anyone, but new doctrinal stuff has to be at least read and accepted by the GB (I guess?) whose members are growing old and unproductive. So expect more and more repetitions. Sorry for you DaCheech. Pole

I guess the worse news was "WHat will stop them from studying the Isaiah book again"?
Well the books in the future will be diminished due to budgets and less donations. The quality of
the books are crap (I can't figure how they expect us to keep our copy of the book for more than one study cicle).
I told my wife last night "I Hope you hold and cherish the Bible story book", she said "why"?
I said, "I saw a new copy in the library, and it's softcover and small edition"!
She can't figure that they are cheapining due to making money like any other corporation would!
How can we cherish the content, when they are treating the books like money making schemes!
The content is not worth the paper it is written in!
I hope Brooklyn reads this! Those hypocrites, and thiefs!

Here's the book cover, for those who haven't seen:
DANIELThe Watchtower's Egocentric View
The Watchtower Society's 1999 book Pay Attention to Daniel's Prophecy! opens with a chapter titled "The Book of Daniel and You," but a more appropriate title would be "The Book of Daniel and US" -- because the organization sees those prophecies as fulfilled in itself.
It asserts that the ancient Jewish prophet Daniel foretold specifically when the Watchtower corporation's Board of Directors would be jailed, and when they would be freed. Also, when certain organizational conventions would be held, and when certain articles would appear in Watchtower publications.(From David Reed's Comments from the Friends)
