Thanks Mary. I gave up my football afternoon to hang with the wifey. Don't think I'm going to do it again. Tried so hard to not upset my girl. Couldn't hide it very well though. She looks at me sometime in the latter part of the day and says...."you ok?, you're frowning.."

Circuit Assembly Confronting Apostate Challenge
by watson inwell, i sat thru day 2 of the latest circuit assembly.
instead of having the co or do re address the "generation" confusion, they had a couple of brothers do a demonstration.
mocha break out in service, weaker brother mentions he's tired....all of the changes lately, the confusing new understanding of that generation, et al.

Another highlight:
In his Keynote Address about Armageddon, he was trying to show us how Jah's "cleansing" of the eart was necessary. So, he used the example that if your house full of ants, or cock roaches..or, or, if what about snakes.....would you just leave them alone? Wouldn't you want to have them completely out of your house?? Equating any kind of human being to this vermin makes me vomit. It's this type of teaching that gives JWs that charming arrogance that we all love so much. I felt like asking "what if they were puppies?", or "what if your house was full of babies.." Obviously i was becoming delirious.

It was interesting how he did it. During his review, he kind of said it as an after thought, almost under his breath. Really weird. I missed the first day, so they probably planted the seeds for this tripe then, and he was just getting the heads bobbing today.

Mocha break out in service, weaker brother mentions he's tired....all of the changes lately, the confusing new understanding of THAT generation, et al. I felt sorry for the brother (stronger and more faithful) that they used to try and explain it. Rough. Halting, nervous...I was more confused when he was done. There was a strange feeling that just hung over the audience when they were done.
The DO later associated Apostates with pedophiles and kidnappers. Not making this up.
Wish I had a recorder there. Although they announce before each session that anything recorded should not be shared on social networks, internet, etc. There were quite a few snippets that were obviously related to critical (Apostate) thinking.

Is there one Bible Prophecy.....
by Phizzy inin the form of a prediction, that can be proven to truly be a prediction,i.e written before the event, and it came true ?.
it would be good not to have time wasters on this thread in the form of the common ones that are brought up to demonstrate the bible's prophetic prowess, like cyrus being named , these have been debunked already.. but does there seem to be a genuine prophecy in there somewhere ?.

Seems like fullfilment of prophecy should be easier to see. I need to be more spiritual I guess.

WT article on Prohibition - 1924
by poopsiecakes ini found this to be very interesting on a lot of levels.. http://www.druglibrary.org/schaffer/history/e1920/rutherford1.htm.
some exerpts:.
recently the president of our association, responding to a question concerning the eighteenth amendment of the constitution of the united states, which prohibits the manufacture, sale and transportation of intoxicating liquor within the united states and which is known as the prohibition law, said: "prohibition is a scheme of the devil," referring of course to the law above mentioned.
