Bradford: "Had Cook as a DO..."
I'm probably thinking of a different person but what was his first name and where was he located?

knock knock
by Sabin inif jw`s come knocking at your door, do you open it & engage in conversation, tell them to sod off, or just not answer the door?.
my husband`s has asked me not to answer the door to them if he isn't here?
he hate`s the fact that they make a point of calling when they know he will be at work.

I just tell them I'm not interested. Then I get disappointed with myself because I failed to give an anti-witness.

How to?
by OneFingerSalute ini cannot use the "quote" feature.. if i click on the quote marks it does the hi-lite of the quote i wish, but i cannot under any circumstances get out of the yellow quote box to create my own post.. i would like to know how other posters are able to do this.
i use both ie and firefox.
the same thing happens in both of them.. also hi-liting no longer works as it used to.

When I'm in the mood to use the quote box I simply cut and paste somebody else's quote box including a word or two below and outside of the text box.
I then delete the text in that box and put in my text inside and outside of the quote box.
And that's all there is to it.

What other Shenanigans can we expect to see in the next 2 years?

Just have them read a Watchtower article against consuming whole blood.

"New Light never contradicts Old Light, but simply adds to it"
by stuckinarut2 indoes anyone remember this classic quote from a society publication??.
i remember it has been quoted many times, but i cant find the reference.. if this comment is to be taken literally, it condemns the organization anytime there has been a complete changes in teachings and doctrine!

My metaphor in response to the JW "The light gets brighter and brighter" is to say that their teachings are more like light bulbs which burn out and have to be replaced by men. -

CO just confirmed worldwide construction halt and possible JW.ORG news of it
by LevelThePlayingField injust had the co visit tonight.
i asked him if he had heard about the worldwide halt of construction besides warwick and to my surprise he said he heard the same thing.

Why would they leave unfinished buildings to rot in the weather? They may as well finish what they started and then stop. -

Does Anyone Still Believe in God?
by LaurenM indo any of you ex-jw's still believe in god?
even with the new rebranding/softening of this religion, i still don't see how people can believe in him.
the god of the old testimate is an angry murderer who approved rapes and slavery and killed thousands of men, women and children.

Viviane: "Nope, no one so far has anything of value to say."
I really haven't read the last dozen or so comments on this thread nor did I see the whole video posted above but I thought I'd throw my two cents in.
I believe that the Universe is full of order and disorder but not intelligence nor, by my definition, "design". Why would a creator god smash two galaxies together with the horrific results that occur? It makes sense when you use non-anthropomorphic terms. It's spontaneous order and disorder that makes our Universe.
