  Many said they'd try something big. Maybe this is part of it. Yet it won't matter to anyone but them. That being said the work is slick. Of course Video Services has been around for a while, this is not a new idea for WT.

  I find it interesting that he works off a teleprompter but from the Bible when Scriptures come up. Mind you putting a studio or a show together doesn't indicate anyone's blessing. JWStruggle, Mike and Kim and many of us have been working on videos for some time now!

  That being said a lot of good work has gone into this. It's slick. But like a friend of mine likes to say, putting lipstick on a pig changes nothing. It's still a pig!

  October 2nd, 2014: The World Ends Tomorrow, Taking all Bets!

  by Oubliette in

  on october 2, 1914, charles taze russell, founder of the watchtower, announced that the gentile times have ended!.

  tomorrow will be exactly 100 years since his historic announcment.. to commemorate this centennial occasion, i will gladly take bets in any amount of money that the world will not end tomorrow and that on friday, october 3rd, 2014 gmt, we will still all be here, for better or worse.. any die-hard jws interested in taking the other side of this friendly little wager?

  still hoping the big "a" is coming tomorrow and your loving god, jehovah, is going to commit mass genocide and execute 99.9% of earth's population because they don't follow the dictates the 7 members of the "faithful and discreet slave," aka, the governing body of jehovah's witnesses?.

  What will you do to celebrate Oct 2 2014?

  by jwfacts in

  like most people reading this, i was convinced that by 2014 the new system would 'definitely' have been operating for at least a decade.

  now that i know this is not going to be the case i am going to have to think of some way to recognise 100 years of wts let downs and failed predictions.

  there is no point fretting over the past so i think it will be a good time to celebrate.

  Wow! It snuck up on me. I worked, slept, now I'm settling down to more business. But being that it is a birthday for Christ's Kingdom I must think of something....

  I'm so sorry to hear. Know that there is more than what the WT takes away from us. Also never give up hope that those who you lose can come back to you.

  Amzzing about Russ that he was a receptionist all that time. I knew him in the late 80's and wondered why someone of his character was only a receptionist. It was at the 107 building. I wonder if he was a bit of a rebel. I liked him and leaned a lot from him.

  I still love Kingdom Melodies.

  ok, at the risk of getting flamed, i have been out for over 20 years, and still love kingdom melodies.

  i remember them for the good times, the conventions and assemblies, hearing the orchestral versions, imagining the orchestra playing.

  some pieces were really nice.

  So do I and for the same reasons of memories etc,. That doesn't apply for the new stuff which I have not chosen to listen to and which would have no memories attached anyway.

  Imagine an ebola pandemic where the only effective treatment is blood

  by Mickey mouse in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  give it a few months, perhaps all jws will have to make hard decisions about blood based treatments.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-29084254.

  the blood of patients who recover from ebola should be used to treat others, the world health organization has announced.. west africa is facing the largest ebola outbreak in history and more than 2,000 people have died.. a global group of experts have been meeting to assess the experimental therapies that could contain ebola.. the who also announced that ebola vaccines could be used on the frontline by november.. blood medicine.

  people produce antibodies in the blood in an attempt to fight off an ebola infection.. in theory, those antibodies can be transferred from a survivor into a sick patient to give their immune system a boost.. however, large scale data on the effectiveness of the therapy is lacking.. studies on the 1995 outbreak of ebola in democratic republic of congo showed seven out of eight people survived after being given the therapy.. dr marie paule kieny, an assistant director general at who said: "we agreed that whole blood therapies may be used to treat ebola virus and all efforts must be invested to help infected countries to use them.. "there is a real opportunity that a blood-derived product can be used now and this can be very effective in terms of treating patients.".
