When DID the Jews return?
by Doug Mason inthe wts says that the key date in the jews return from babylon is tishri 1 537 bce.. the wts uses that date to arrive at its incorrect date of 607 bce for the destruction of jerusalem.
in turn, its 607 bce date is used to provide the date of october 1914 ce for christs parousia and the setting up of gods kingdom government.
the wts claims to be the sole representative upon earth of gods kingdom.. the date of the jews return is thus crucial to the watchtower societys (wts) existence and authority.

The Jews did return in 537. 607 is crucial for their 1914 doctrine.

Where did the WTS condemn the Catholics for pedophilia?
by AK - Jeff ini did a search of the publications - perhaps i used the wrong words, though i thought i used the correct combinations.
i can find plenty of condemnation of catholic church, but nothing that specifically condemns the catholic church for the pedophilia issues within.
i was sure that they had done so over the years - but was i just reading my jw taught judgementalism into articles that weren't specific?.

AWAKE January22,1989 page 9-11 "Catholic Church is blunt in it's disapproval of Homosexuality but the Church conducts a cover up for guilty Priests and even make it possible for them to continue their sexual perversions. Church officials have failed to notify authorities." Now notice what the February 15, 2002 page 4 of the Watchtower says. "As directed in July1,1989 letter to all bodies of elders, you should immediately call the legal department for direction if you learn of a case of child abuse. Never suggest to anyone that you should call the Police or Authorities." What HYPOCRITES !!

Did Zedekiah have an accession year (zeroth year)
by cultswatter inthe following is from antiquities of the jews by josephus.
here we see that josephus is well aware that nebuchadnezzar had an accession year or zeroth year.. 1. now in the fourth year of the reign of jehoiakim, one whose name was nebuchadnezzar took the government over the babylonians, who at the same time went up with a great army to the city carchemish, which was at euphrates, upon a resolution he had taken to fight with neco king of egypt, under whom all syria then was.
and when neco understood the intention of the king of babylon, and that this expedition was made against him, he did not despise his attempt, but made haste with a great band of men to euphrates to defend himself from nebuchadnezzar; and when they had joined battle, he was beaten, and lost many ten thousands [of his soldiers] in the battle.

Has the WTS ever published a complete list of babylonian kings??
by cultswatter inlets cut to the chase shall we.
i'm looking for the wts list of babylonian kings and the years they reigned.
evidently the wts discredits any historical list of babylonian kings.

Here you are: W86 11/1 "Nebuchadnezzar reigned for 43 years." W65 1/1 "Evil-merodach reigned 2 years." W65 1/1 "Neriglissar reigned for 4 years." It-2 p.457 " Nabonidus is believed to have ruled some 17 years." Now add 43+2+4+17= 66 years. Babylon fell 539, add 66 to 539 and you get 605 for Nebuchadnezzar's 1st year as King. Not 624 as the WTS says. The Bible at 2Kings 25:8-9 says the 19th year of Nebuchadnezzar was Jerusalem's desolation. counting 605 as the 1st year of Nebuchadnezzar's regin, second as 604. on down to 587, 587 is his 19th year. Hope this helps.

Why give them the power to control your life? By meeting with them, you are giving them control. Screw them!

If the WTS can accept money from money that was invested in the stock market on philip morris cig. and they also own 50% of a company that makes War Weapons, if I were you I wouldn't worry about retirement money that you have a right to accept. You ask a question "Is my worship worthless.' As long as you remain in that cult, it doesn't make much dfference what you do. You are as good as those who claim to be "annointed." Sorry if the truth hurts.
