on october 2, 1914, charles taze russell, founder of the watchtower, announced that the gentile times have ended!.
tomorrow will be exactly 100 years since his historic announcment.. to commemorate this centennial occasion, i will gladly take bets in any amount of money that the world will not end tomorrow and that on friday, october 3rd, 2014 gmt, we will still all be here, for better or worse.. any die-hard jws interested in taking the other side of this friendly little wager?
still hoping the big "a" is coming tomorrow and your loving god, jehovah, is going to commit mass genocide and execute 99.9% of earth's population because they don't follow the dictates the 7 members of the "faithful and discreet slave," aka, the governing body of jehovah's witnesses?.
Leo Greenlees here:
I don't have much money left, as I only receive a Special (very) Pioneer allowance now. (I miss the old days.)
However, I've made a few young friends here in New Orleans that are becoming a tad boring.
I would be interested in a trade of young friends, as opposed to filthy lucre.
PLEASE!
i've been writing october 1, 1914 as today's date - multiple times.. i guess tomorrow is really branded into my brain.
(anyone else been caught doing this?).

Maybe they should try channeling Russell and see if he maybe missed something in his pyramid math.

Candace Conti did more good than anyone could have imagined that she would have.
It shows that not only can you see justice actually done, you do not need to succumb to the insane pressure to coverup and/or settle for peanuts.

Re: Selection made in heaven first.
Same with pedos.
God knows, but sometimes holy spirit is like Billy coming home in Family Circus.
Not always the direct route.
Thus the victim and their family are being allowed the privilege of showing their loyalty to God's organization even under difficult circumstances.
" dinosaurs" .
i mean why didn't the bible cover it?.
.
Heard it directly from the platform by an experienced elder.
"It is obvious that God destroyed them by means of the flood."
as a father, made in god's love, that has troubled me for a very long time, is that god, as described by the wts, is soon, going to slaughter every, roughly, 7.9 billion people on the planet, because they have figured out a way to come know him as a father according to the wts.. .
as a father, dear apologist, why would you kill/murder a one-day old baby?.
.
So Jehoover is a sweetheart and a prick. Guess you have to be careful what mood he's in.
Bi-polar?

a particularly curious quote was:.
the most mainstream research on this is a 2010 study out of pennsylvania state university, which examined data from 1972 to 2006. the study showed that 20 percent of people who have left religion report being in excellent health, versus 40 percent of people currently part of strict religious groups (such as jehovahs witnesses and latter-day saints) and 25 percent of people who switched from a strict religion to a more lenient religion.
I wouldn't be surprised if this quote makes it into a Watchtower or Awake! article sometime in the future...
Sure - "See brothers, you're nuts to leave."
