of course it's easy to criticise the bible for all manner of serious flaws, but it fails on a more basic level.. it is just a terrible piece of literature.. this piece on "southern skeptic" is well worth a read.. god is a terrible writer....
Ha! Good one Caleb.
i was just a teenager and have a vivid memory of sitting in a chair doing a microphone for the sunday meeting.
everyone was commenting that it didn't mean the end was far off, and it didn't change the condition of the dead, or the 144,000, or the trinity so we should still remain faithful.
this is my first memory as a kid being just a teen that i ever had a single doubt.
The majority of brain dead dubs couldn't or wouldn't explain any doctrinal adjustments.
They have made the final metamorphosis into a social club - and a pretty pathetic excuse for one.

If you were to pick one book from all of human history to live your life by which one would it be?
Put that way it's ludicrous that people even try. Even the best of books would be impossible to live by, let alone something so contradictory and divisive.
"Beware of the man who only has one book."
in the article on the guardian ( http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jul/14/jehovahs-witnesses-evangelism-church-god-armageddon ) mentioned in another thread, there's this quote of mark omalley, who is assigned to the public information desk at the jehovahs witness uk centre in north london.
we now have more than 165,000 [literature] carts on the streets in over 50 countries.
it gives us visibility and availability.
Cost of lit carts = very little.
Joke value = priceless.
from 2 samuel 24. i am so mad at myself for not making a comment how could anyone explain this away?
then after he slaughters 70,000 he then feels regret?
Census shmensus.
JWs are the Kings of Census taking, with all the reporting of time, placements, bible studies, baptized, unbaptized publishers, pioneers, elders, ms' partakers, disfellowshipped, inactive............
Is there anything they don't count??
Oh yeah, number of children abused and pedophiles.
i hear a number of disfellowshiped are quickly reinstated in acertain circuit in japan.one disfellowshipped person who are obviously in worldly.
clothings, attended a meeting.whole congregation thought that person was not yet sincerely repented,but, announcement was made that the person was reinstated.branch office and circuit overseers are eager to bringdisfellowshiped back to the organization.local elders are not very pleased about it..
The whole reinstatement process is due for an overhaul.
When slow growth becomes negative growth we may see all manner of unthinkable "nu-lite."
i am posting a transcript a part of the talk given by anthony morris iii from jw broadcasting july 2015. i've posted much much more than necessary but i wanted to keep it in context.
the governing body has approved of my speaking of something that jesus himself spoke of on a number of occasions.
and i might say at the outset that this is by no means a pessimistic speech meant to discourage anyone.
Now that would be a funny a GB version of Drunk WT Hishtory.
I'd watch those broadcasts.
