  Wow this is spooky I am almost a Floyd fanatic come on the JW site and your talking Floyd.

  Amazingly I have been reading a new fantastic 300 page book tonight which I ordered from America about the Wall called Comfortably Numb

  My favourite is Roger Waters who after all wrote nearly all of it and I saw him in Hyde Park London in July and I saw David Gilmour at the Royal Albert Hall in May. Both were fantastic but Roger was out of this world. I also saw the original Wall shows in 1980

  Anyway RIP Syd.

  Will he get a resurecction!!!!

  Creative Day More New Light

  when i was brought up in the 60s and 70s a creative day was definately 7000 years as mentioned on another thread and then it became vague as thousands of years like mentioned in an earlier thread.

  well the bright light really is getting brighter all the time.

  whereas they used to know exactly how long a creative day was they now have not got a clue .

  NEW AWAKE SEPTEMBER 2006

  PAGE 19 "How long then were the creative days? The wording of Genesis chapters 1 and 2 indicates that considerable lengths of time were involved."

  Well thats makes it much clearer then could be millions of years like scientists have always said!!!!

  Life in Bethel & Ex-Bethelites know if the GB prayed together?

  by Sheepish in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have always wondered how seriously they took this dispensing doctrine thing.

  do they all get together and actually pray or just have meetings?

  ex- bethelites say they wrote doctrinal articles for the watchtower or awake.

  Yes well said Blondie

  But they still teach the number was sealed in 1935 and they are replacements. There must be a lot of 80-90 year olds falling away

  Stupid "Bible" Prophecies The Watchtower & "Slave" Fed Us

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  bible writers must be rolling in their graves if they saw how their writings were taken apart and mangled by the "spirit directed organization".

  the watchtower prides itself in getting ones 'tasteful spiritual food, nutritional", even!

  what stupid understandings have the witnesses believed in over the years that show you they certainly do not have the "truth"?

  the age of 40?.

  seems like a lot have left after 1/2 or 2/3 of a lifetime.

  what accounts for that in your mind, if you left in later middle years or older?.

  Describe your first thoughts upon hearing the 1914 generation 'new light'

  by kid-A in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  .

  we all remember where we were and what we were thinking during highly significant events....(e.g.

  9-11, jfk, etc)..... if you can recall, what were the first thoughts racing through your mind as you sat at the 1995 d.c. at the infamous 1914 generation change announcement, was it "the final nail in the coffin of your wts beliefs or did you engage in mental gymnastics to try to assimilate the "fresh meat in due season" lol....... i was in such shock at this announcement, i think my mind just blanked out for 10 minutes followed by: "ok, this really is it for me......they have duped us all along", i then immediately started thinking of my 90 year old jw grandmother sitting in the stadium, and what must have been going through her mind......

  Hang on im from England and I did not think it was changed at the district assembly. It was changed in the Watchtower articles in September 1995.

  I was an elder here and that was when the new light (dark) was broght out and I understood the significance immediately.

  Can someone explain the generation change?

  by feelinglost in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after being on here now for a little while, i decided to ask my mother this weekend about whether armageddon is still supposed to come before the generation of 1914 is gone.

  so this leaves me a little confused- is this right, is this what they still teach?

  or has something changed?

  You need a direct answer to your question

  Actually nobody can expalin the generation change as the new understanding is meaningless. I tried this when I was still a JW and asked brothers and sisters to expalin it and none of them could,

  Even the governing body cannot expalin it thay just said it was the "contemporous people of the time".

  Sounds like politician talk to me

  Definately Judge rutherford as he invented most of the doctrines that were just his ideas and they are now stuck with

  These include great crowd, other sheep, 144000 to heaven, current understanding of 1914

  All a load of rubbish but they are stuck with it

  Franz is a close second for his so called biblical scholar ideas. It was him with all the anti-typical meanings for virtually everything in the bible, 6000 years of mans history, how long between Eve being created after Adam, and 1975, and the generation teaching.

  What a pair of self rightous people who thought they knew Gods teaching when in fact they were their own ideas
