PAT sorry, I didn't see your post until now. I looked up a number of the items and he stretches reality pretty thing to reach his conclusions. Nevertheless it gives new meaning to there being "nothing new under the sun".
Since you were just at the Lourve ( I have been as well, amazing! ) I thought it was interesting that the pyramid entrance structure has 666 panes of glass in it. Can that be verified? Anyone in France want to go count them?

Yes, my wife ( as you know ) is going to get that next. She read it and just loved all the little tidbits in it. It's a very interesting book. I will be reading that next.
Have you started it yet?

Not the obvious stuff, but the side points about the symbolism of misc items. Just smacks of how much we were NOT told as JW's and what we were told relating to symbolism was to suit the thinking of the 'moment'.

after awhile the jw's will have to do something about 1914 when it crumbles right before them.
how long can they hold onto this russell-invented doctrine?
Dude, they totally did. Took all ties away from it. Now it's just one of many 'minor' dates.

this outfit is spending boku $$$ on internet advertising, as i see banner ads & pop-ups advertising their service everywhere i surf.. anybody use it?
is it worth the $20/month?
The only way to go. Plus when was the last time you returned a movie on time and only paid 4.50 for it? You have the ease of always having a movie laying around.
Great, u should 2!
i recall praying countless of times about very specific things, "worked in harmony with my prayers" and nothing.
anything that remotely seemed like an answer was either coincidence or my own determination to get it done.. so, how about you?
did jehovah answer your prayers or were you like me, did you feel very frustrated and guilty because they were never answered?
Yes!
for years the wts has been focusing on being more efficient, refinement, etc.
that is why many departments in the wts have merged, others eliminated.
the lates gossip from betthel a couple of years ago was that bethel was downsizing and many bethelite would be sned home and those leaving would not be repalced, also the sale of wt property, the printibg of literaure overseas normally done here and more prining done upsate ny would seem to indicate a move out of brooklyn, to patterson.
Confirms my suspicions, at one time someone somewhere had a good intention here. It just went horribly awry as things do when they take on a life of their own. Of course that Pr!ck Rutherford helped things along.
Sad Sad Sad
in a minimus moment, i find myself interested in knowing which buzz-words and phrases in jw publications stand out the most to you?
when i read wt literature, i constantly find myself astounded by how transparently cultish the language is.
in an earlier, unrelated thread, i said the following: .
"lest we forget, "Spiritual Giant"
"swarms of locusts in the form or Kingdom proclaimers came out of the abysss. They left thier "STINGS" ( quotes NOT added by me ) in the form of millions upon millions of tracts and other "bible based" ( quotes ADDED by me ) publications.
