I already went down this path myself, tdogg. That's why I know the answer.
"Wind" is just gasses and particulates in the atmosphere (air) set to motion by objects moving through the air (photons, water, animals, airplanes, and etc.)

FF,
They would probably say I faked the letters I received from the CCoJW.

Consider me reminded. LOL.
rem,
What I take issue with is not Science exploring material reality. I take issue with people who infer that spirituality is delusional. That would make the majority of the world's population, including many scientist's who don't support young earth, delusional.
If delusions are as Psychiatry define, "falsifiable beliefs" then those who believe in a spiritual realm are not delusional. Are they, rem? Tetrapod.sapien? Cygnus? Caedes? kid-A?
On the other hand, that doesn't mean science is deluded either, unless they treat gravity as more real than it has actually been proven to be, for instance. Gravity is not falsifiable, only some of its properties are.

"His "faith" is so fragile that he couldn't even look at his own publications."
That is the pity of it all. They are so sure their right. But they can't prove it. And anyone who asks them to prove it is an apostate. Which, as of this morning, I guess I officially am.

The story of my life (part 5- Bethel, the first shock)
by onacruse inabout 2 months after i arrived at bethel (late spring), i took my place at the breakfast table...awakened, as usual, by the 6 a.m. bell, a quick shower, and arriving with great anticipation for the 7 a.m. daily comments, with a few words from the "head of the table" (usually knorr, but they had recently started a weekly "cycling" of governing body members; part of the impending organizational elders restructuring).
the norm was to start eating at 7:30 a.m. (read "scoop the bowl and wolf it down"), and on the clock by 8 a.m.. but, on this day, something completely beyond my anticipation.
knorr starts off by saying that we should be prepared to sit for a while, as he proceeds, for 3 hours, to outline how a homosexuality "ring" has been operating at bethel for some time, including some gileadites.

Nah, we know what wind is. And not just by its effects. Wind is not technically a force, per se. It is movement of air, displacement of gasses. Technically, wind is caused by gravity (whatever gravity is) and temperature.

Can any JW answer OldSoul's 4 questions about JW teachings scripturally?

(1) the faithful and discreet slave is a class of people, .
(2) that the holy spirit directs organizations in addition to individuals, .

Survival Into a New Earth chap. 12 pp. 96-97 Identified for Destruction or Survival?
15 All who want to be marked as having God’s approval must accept the instruction that Jehovah is providing through that “slave” class and become true worshipers of Jehovah. They must not be persons who honor Jehovah with their mouths but who really love the world’s ways. (Isaiah 29:13, 14; 1 John 2:15) They must love Jehovah and his standards and feel grieved at heart, “sighing and groaning,” over teachings and practices that dishonor him. No one will put a literal ink mark on their forehead. But when they have the symbolic mark it will be obvious to all that, as dedicated, baptized Christians, they have put on the “new personality” described at Ephesians 4:24. They have a living faith. Publicly and privately they endeavor to do what will honor Jehovah. Not only persons who have come out of Christendom but all, regardless of background, who hope to survive into the “new earth” as associates of the anointed class must have this mark.
16 Particularly significant is the fact that Jehovah’s executioners were told that age, sex, singleness or marriage relationship was no reason to spare an offender against Jehovah. A married person must individually have his or her mark in order to be spared. If parents resist having their children marked or if they fail to bring them up as servants of Jehovah, they must bear the responsibility for what happens to those children. Although obedient children of godly parents are viewed as “holy” by Jehovah, rebellious ones are not. (1 Corinthians 7:14; Psalm 102:28; Proverbs 20:11; 30:17) If children are old enough to become baptized Christians but do not want to live up to the requirements, whether they are baptized or not, their age will not result in their being spared. How vital, then, for each individual of responsible age to be clearly marked as a person dedicated to God and doing his will!Says it all, don't it? Reason I got baptized so young. These two paragraphs scared me silly.
