Michelangelo has the key to understand the Bible!
by abiather inwatch tower released the revised translation of the bible in october, 2013. this is not something new!
see what has been happening in the last 20 centuries!
each christian sect does not trust the translations of others, hence wants one of their own.

Most Ridiculous Thing You've Ever Been Counseled On
by MrFreeze ini'm sure topics like this have already come up but they tend to get hilarious with the absolute absurdity that goes on in the kh.
i was once counseled for not shaving after two days.
i was also counseled by a sister for eating lucky charms cereal.

Razkat. Just before I left I had the opportunity to "clear the air" with one elder who seemed to take delight in dissing me over the years. He and another came for a shepherding call which was a cover for him to rant. He started along the lines of "You better watch out blah blah. I cut him off, leaned in toward him and said "You better watch your mouth!" He realised that I was very serious (and incredibly irate from years of taking his shit). The other elder and my wife of the time mouth's dropped. The elders left immediately.
My only regret is that I should just have hit him and talked later but such is hindsight.
He is now dead and I'm alive. Sweet!

There are many man-made mysteries the scientists can simply puzzle over!
by abiather inwhen perry posted: who made the code?
many responded in nervousness and frustration.
here are some man-made mysteries (forget about god-made codes), which the scientists can simply puzzle over.. 1) the still un-deciphered harappan script.. 2) the illustrated voynich manuscript written in a completely unknown script.

I (think) I see your point that sheep are docile, timid and stupid and that's what the bible says we should be like...

The Literature Stands
by sherrie11 injust got a visit from two jw's and i mentioned the literature stands they have now.. i mentioned i walk past their stand they set up in my town every thursday on my way to work.
last week the stand was smaller and i asked why was it smaller.
no answer..... i then said you guys usually go door to door dont you?

Interesting. This indicates that the door to door work is no longer effective and that witnesses are losing heart because when you think about it, the stands are more for the witnesses to reaffirm their separateness from the world rather than actively preaching/presenting the "good news".
The witnesses still feel they are dong something as service but don't have to actually engage.
Funny it used to be called the warning work. I'm glad they don't apply this method of warning in the Fire Dept!

The Great Wall of Banknotes - Another 'rich' village in China
by fulltimestudent invillagers in china have built a wall of banknotes worth 13 million yuan ($2.1m: 1.3m) after a massive payout in annual bonuses from their rural co-operative.. .
the annual bonus was paid out to 340 households (families) that are members of the village co-operative in jianshe village, in liangshan yi autonomous prefecture, in south western sichuan province.. the co-operative makes its money out of pig farms, cherry orchards, and its investment in four small scale hydropower plants in sichuan, according to a village official, named zhu.. the co-operative is likely to have been among those rural areas that were forced into co-operatives back in mao zedong's time.
i do not know whether a large payout is customary, or the result of increasing emphasis (by the national government) on rural prosperity.
