Dear Brothers and Sisters,
We would like to inform you that we have, ad hoc, retroactively changed the meaning of Millions Now Living Will Never Die. When we said "never die" we didn't really mean a physical death but, rather, we meant that sincere ones would be preserved spiritually alive. The preaching work of the last 100 years has been truly momentous and has "saved" millions from destruction. Thus, the words of Rutherford have now been fulfilled, by ever changing definitions, and we can continue to have confidence in our old new light.

God is not genocidal
by mistified inso at the meeting a few weeks ago the speaker was having a talk about inactive people and then he went on about how people think the god of the old testament was cruel and genocidal.
he then said that god and did not commit genocide because everything he did was for a reason.
i was shocked at how stupid that saying was.

Genocidal maniac! Deuteronomy 7
" When the LORD your God brings you into the land where you are entering to possess it, and clears away many nations before you, the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and stronger than you, 2 and when the LORD your God delivers them before you and you defeat them, then you shall utterly destroy them. . . But the LORD your God will deliver them before you, and will throw them into great confusion until they are destroyed."

Suggestion: Don't Accept Everyone's Opinion Here
by minimus ineveryone has an opinion on things.
oftentimes, we ask for help or want the view of the board in a matter.
but just remember, the comments are simply personal views.

Informed Opinion: A postion based upon an understanding of the neccissary facts and a careful consideration of the principles at hand. Relying on evidence instead of limited personal experience.
Opionated: Conceitedly assertive and dogmatic in one's opinions. Relying on personal preceptions rather than facts.
The two are not the same.

"It's the intent that counts and not the result."
by donny in"it's the intent that counts not the result.".
i have been out of the jw organization for some 22 years now and i sometimes get a reminding jolt out the hoops that some will jump through to make their religion make sense to them.
the first line in this post is what a jw on the street here in salinas told me on saturday when trying to justify the society's history of false prophecies.

What about the "intent" of the Catholic church? What about the "intent" of Budhist or Hindus or Muslims?
Good intentions are not an indicator of truth or worthieness to a cause or claim. Intentions are only as good as the information upon which they are based. And intentions based upon bad information can lead to disasterous effect.
