I'm sure "Brother Nelson" took care of his lack of retirement fund situation. It's a wonder not all of the old JWs casted into retirement didn't flock there. -

My family went to their one day assembly, too. I wonder if you were at the same one.
A few questions for you ...
1. Was there any mention of shunning family members?
2. They really said to watch no superhuman shows???? My God! The JWs I know in this area go to Comicon every time it comes to town, including my sister's family. Her elder husband's favorite shirt is his Superman shirt.
3. Anything about education?
Thanks in advance!

I would be okay if he stole the spotlight from Prince, like he did Taylor Swift. Let them switch places!

Prince will Be Resurrected
by Wild_Thing ini'm sure prince has already been talked about to death on this site, but a jw family member just liked a video posted by a jw group on facebook that is an interview of prince about his conversion to jw.
it's the comments made by jws that this post is about.. prince was a great artist!
and the world has lost a musical genius in my opinion, but he lost me after he converted.

I'm sure Prince has already been talked about to death on this site, but a JW family member just liked a video posted by a JW group on Facebook that is an interview of Prince about his conversion to JW. I'm sure everyone has seen it. It's the comments made by JWs that this post is about.
Prince was a great artist! And the world has lost a musical genius in my opinion, but he lost me after he converted. He has always been weird, but after converting, he just became a different shade of weird and I didn't like his new music ... post JW. I still have his old albums on my iPod though and love them! This is not anything against him as a musician.
But reading the JW comments are making me feel a little nauseated. They are talking about how they can't wait for him to be resurrected and how they will see him in "just a little while" in paradise. And they are all so excited to finally meet him when he is resurrected! I am pretty sure they are hoping for a post paradise concert or something.
And then there's this gem:
Food for thought my spiritual family. We have to be careful with what words we use when someone dies. Unbelievers get confused when the word passed away is used thinking we believe in after life.
Yes, yes ... that has always confused me, the whole "passed away" phrase ... not! I couldn't read anymore. If you need a good purging of your dinner: https://www.facebook.com/Jehovahs-Witnesses-Examiner-241479099370852/?fref=nf

Thanks, Old Goat! Wow! I never knew the Watchtower claimed he was born before the time keeping of A.D. began.

So I was looking on what is available on Google docs and in her list of dates, she claims that JWs date Jesus's birth at 2 B.C.E.
How is that? I was always taught his birth marked the beginning of the Common Era and that he was 33 when he died. By her calculations, he would have been 35.
Anybody know of any Watchtower publications to back up this claim? I am going strictly off of memory regarding what I was taught.

Question About the New Headquarters at Warwick
by Wild_Thing inthe jws are known for building kingdom halls and assembly halls with slave ...er i mean ... volunteer labor, but this new self sufficient headquarters seems a bit more complex.. so who's building it?
did they hire a firm with educated engineers and architects who know what they are doing?
or are they still using billy*, who learned how to lay tile from his uncle bob*?.

Sometimes inspections mean very little. There is a Kingdom Hall in my area that was deemed unsafe 10 years after it was built. The roof was starting to collapse. Come to find out ... they used the wrong tresses. It seems like having a trained structural engineer involved in the whole process would have prevented that.
