WT's biggest gaffe ever?

Oodad said ,

Look carefully at the picture below and answer: How many generations do you see?

Say the first thing that comes to mind.

One "Overlapping Generation"

If you said "One Overlapping Generation" then congratulations!!! You are a faithful Witness for Jehovah.
If you said "Four" then I'm sorry but I've got bad news, you are a "mentally diseased" apostate!

However, if that picture was taken in 1914, then remember that Jesus still wasn't referring to any of the 'four' generations in the picture above. He was referring to a generartion that was yet to be born in the year this picture was taken (1914) but would overlap with the baby shown.

Now that isn't a gaffe. It is effing stupidity beyond decent respect for the marvel of human intelligence.

it is interesting when occasionally they try and defend their beliefs in front of their fellow window cleaners (non jw).. if you're a window cleaner there is some good info work related too but i particularly like it when the jw's comment.. http://www.cleanitup.co.uk .

Cedars, exactly.

Embarrassment is a powerful force.

I haven't been this angry with the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society for quite a little while. I thought I was recovering from my anger but I'm suffering a relapse.

Child comes home 'happy' with new wizard toy. Ends up looking sad because he has to bin it and then do family worship book.

Child is happy playing with toy plane. Then looks sad because it's family worship book again.

The main thing that has always stood out to me about this photo is that not one of them appears overweight.

JW Careers - Meter Reading??

by rrb2016 in

jw

i remember in the 70's and 80's the big jw career was pin striping...in addition to the regular careers like janitorial and window washing.

now i hear the big career is meter reading in the pacific northwest.

what are some of the other jw careers that are hot in the 2012 and the "end is closer than ever?

ThomasCovenant

Re 'pinstriping' thanks that's what I thought it was [go faster stripes] but never heard of it in relation to a 'career' for Witnesses, or anyone else for that matter.
