i just thought we could share some of the funniest moments since its the holiday season and we are taking things easy.
.

I think I have to agree with ADCMS: the millions campaign leading up to 1925, with Rutherford confidently expecting the return of the 'ancient worthies' - the liquor-loving lunatic thought that Daniel, Moses et al would be comfortable, post-resurrection, in a Californian mansion. That was a belter, wasn't it!
Also some WTS views on dinosaurs and extant species are hilarious and seemingly hard to parody, although I expect Jehovah's Trumpet website has had/will have a bash at it.
this incident in paris makes me feel absolutely furious.
yes i feel desperately sorry for the victims and their families no one should have to deal with that.
the thing that makes me feel absolutely incandescent though is the attack on freedom of speech and expression.
warning: poes law may apply.
i just wanted to take a moment and remind everyone that all muslims are good people.
"real" muslims would never kill in the name of their religion .
'The religion of peace' - so called because when the blessed mujahideen defend the honour of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), people are gunned down and end up in eternal peace.
I anticipate an article by Seamas Milne showing tender concern for blowback against the muslim community before explaining who the real culprits in all of this really are - America and Israel.
Allahu Akbar!
churches: jesus switched bodies for you and has risen!.
jw org: jesus has been ruling for 100 years!.
both equally ridiculous!~.
DocHouse - so the answer isn't atheism, agnosticism, churchianity or jw.org.
What is the answer? Lemme guess - it's 'DocHouse'
yes- everyone has faults and makes mistakes; an organization even more so.. yet, you ignore all the fingers pointing at you.. many here have no faith.
many here go to churches who lie about everything biblical; look at x-mas!.
but at least we know god and christ and try to live up to their name!.
DocHouse - I see you've ignored my second question, well done, so I'd like to put it this way:
Do you believe that the F&DS (GB) is God's channel to mankind?
The fact that you've taken the trouble to join a forum that 'good' JWs regard as 'apostate' suggests to me that you may have doubts.
My advice to you, FWIW, is stick around - everybody's allowed their opinions and beliefs here, and allowed to voice them in a sensible manner.
I hope you sort your situation out
LUHE

DocHouse - what gives you the right to decide which faiths are/aren't Christian?
And which faith is truly Christian? Surely you won't say the WTS - you've been slagging them off for the past half hour.
the new forum originally had a little country flag next to each post showing the country that the post was made from based on the geoip encoding (the country the ip address is from).
before i switched over to the new site someone made an issue about it violating their privacy and i didn't want to complicate and confuse the switchover with policy debate at the same time as technical issues so removed the flags even though i disagreed.. someone has already requested it as a feature and i think it should be added back so i thought it's now time to open the discussion and get everyone's opinions.
first, the reason i think it should be shown:.
I want one of these:
[ nazi flag removed ]
I always thought they looked rather swish.

Greener, I just had a look at your posting history. You've recently joined and posted 16 times on 1 topic. What the f**k are you worried about?
Even if your name was, say, Jakob Mikkelsen from Fugloy, do you really think a flag with an off-centre, Scandinavian cross would lead to you being ID'd?
Nurse!

I would LOVE to be called to the back room for this- and would plop down a Recorder and say- is this because I take Jesus's words about a SINGLE generation as true? - even if this got you DF'd? Got you treated like sh1t or ignored by your friends and family?
Finkelstein basically beat me to it but do you still regularly attend meetings and hand in field service reports? Are you baptised? What do say if a brother remarks that it's hard to keep up with all this new light?
I'm still not fully convinced that you are a JW, TBH.

I would tell him/her it is their OPINION- a MISTAKEN one, since Jesus referred to a SINGLE generation - yeah but I forgot to mention it was the CO/DO's visit and he was accompanying you on your bible study.
Not so cock-a-hoop now are you. Mwa ha ha ha ha!
