  The archive will still be here.

  9/11 - The threads at the time shows how people were reacting, without the filter of 13 years elapsed time. Experience and distance changes memory.

  Still nothing credible?

  i can hardly believe that anything new is gonna be announced at the annual meeting.

  i mean, there is absolutely no one i know in this organization capable of keeping a secret and we haven't heard anything but "big changes are coming" "just wait and see" "big things are in the works" and my personal favorite posted by one of our members who was told not to diassociate because "things are gonna be announced that will change your mind".. no one i know at the hall or in positions of responsibilty has ever been able to keep anything confidential.

  it's always been like the character on in lving color, "i aint one to gossip...but you didn't hear that from me.".

  WHY has the Governing Body become what it has become? History shows the way . . .

  if a human being has the desire to worship god, what could possibly stand in the way?.

  thousands of years ago tribes and nations used imagination to figure this out.. early humans made humble offers to the gods to curry favor and (perhaps) to bribe them.. offerings of food, prayers, and even blood were used to convince the supernatural realm of a sincere desire to negotiate favor and protection.. we all know this already, don't we?.

  step one: wooing a deity : offer something to god in return for a benefit.. _______________________________.

  an odd letter was read at last nights' meeting.

  it was in regards to a special campaign for next year arranged by the governing body to go and preach in israel.

  the call is going out to anybody that speaks hebrew and english.

  Didn't the Kingdumb misery discourage learning Hebrew or Greek a few years back? I think because people wd realise the NWT was not accurate at all.

  now they want to take advantage of disobedient ones...

  You can count a study if you call on somebody more than twice and point to stuff in a paragraph while standing on the doorstep. How many of this1000 said go away after the third irritating call.

  James Brown:

  if the water canopy existed that made the global flood, air pressure on the ground would be 10 000 pounds per square inch. To stop it turning to rain would require a temperature of at least 900 degrees.

  If the flood happened - where are the fossils of animals exploding as pressure dropped catastrophically?

  You are either a blinkered victim of the Watchtower Cult, or an ignorant fool.

  Oh - and many creatures were much bigger than now because there was more oxygen in the atmosphere, so they COULD.
