  This illustration, as well as the one about marriage that says all who die are "like angels" are some of the most invonvenient scriptures for the GB to explain, working directly against their Paradise Earth dogma. If Jesus was the Greatest Teacher who ever lived, why would he confuse his listeners with supposedly 'false teachings' as a plot device?

  Yes, as a PIMO I falsify. What's funny though is that for almost a whole year after I woke up I STILL wouldn't falsify out of guilt. Just shows what a hold they can have.

  It would be interesting if they did a major general theatrical release, like they did 105 years ago.

  Or a television special, like they did 53 years ago.

  I heard the comment that this is on scale and quality of a Hollywood studio. It will be interesting to see what content they start coming out with when it's finished.

  hey, in the bible, sanctuary cities were acceptable, right?

  Israel didn't have sanctuary cities. Cities of Refuge were basically a large prison-town as a result of negligent homicide. Deliberate murderers just got the death penalty.

  Sanctuary cities today are really a country breaking its' own laws and ultimately shooting itself in the foot.

  Yes I did. You can have a fairly good life as members (if you must) if you don't take the religion too seriously. But having a narcissistic parent in addition to the already narcissistic organization is of course by its' very nature worse.

  As his love for Jehovah grows, however, he will likely begin to think about how he can help others, including those who are already part of the congregation. (Matt. 22:37-39) When the time is right, do not hold back from mentioning the privilege of supporting the Kingdom work financially.
