for over 100 years the same message of doom and gloom for the world has been preached with a twist.

if your a jehovah's witness you can be saved.. .

i think people are tired of expecting the end of the system, the older generation (there are more older ones than younger i am guessing) are seeing the end of their lives when they thought they never would and some of them probably think about the false prophecy.. .

MidwichCuckoo

but I can't see anything recharging the wts

A little ECT wouldn't go amiss.

That's one helluva flip-flop - those deceased in Sodom and Gomorrah won't know whether they're coming or going.

Jehovahs organisation goes from strength to strength. Increase every year.

They breed their own - the increase is due to Baptising them before they're weaned. They'll be chucking foetuses in the Baptismal pool soon.

God's 'name'and the Bible

by Gill in

MidwichCuckoo

I believe the name 'Jehovah' was first used by a Spanish monk, Raymundus Martini, in 1278 (?) - and I believe the Watchtower gives him credit for it too!

anyone remember back 15 years or so ago when some brothers used to think mars bars were made with lecithin derived from blood .. we had a sister call the company and interrogate them.

funny.. .

Yes Gill - I remember the warnings about what garden fertiliser to buy. Odd really. When you think about it. As blood is returned to the ground.

Husband and his wife had a bitter quarrel on the day of their 40th wedding anniversary.

The husband yells, "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone that reads,

'Here Lies My Wife - Cold As Ever'."

"Yeah" she replies, "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone that reads,

'Here Lies My Husband - Stiff At Last.'"

One evening a family brings their frail, elderly mother to a nursing home and leaves her, hoping she will be well cared for. The next morning, the nurses bathe her, feed her a tasty breakfast, and set her in a chair at a window overlooking a lovely flower garden.

She seems OK, but after a while she slowly starts to lean over sideways in her chair. Two attentive nurses immediately rush up to catch her and straighten her up. Again she seems OK, but after a while she starts to tilt to the other side. The nurses rush back and once more bring her back upright. This goes on all morning. Later the family arrives to see how the old woman is adjusting to her new home. "So Ma, how is it here? Are they treating you all right?" they ask.

"It's pretty nice," she replies. "Except they won't let you fart."
