they say ignorance is bliss... well, i wish that god did not give adam free will.
i am ok to not have free will if it means i will live forever in perfect paradisiac conditions.it has been explained that free will is a gift from god.
they say 'who would want to live life like a robot?
In my opinion the bible is written with symbols, metaphors, allegories and other literary devices and one must spend a lifetime studying and reading it.
And millions of people have felt the same, over 2,000 years, and have come up with all sorts of interpretations by the end of their life.
That's not very helpful now is it?
I can't prove but that is what I think.
And many Jews feel the same about the Torah.
And even more Muslims feel the same about the Koran.

BTW: CESNUR is not a reputable organization to quote from or trust.
Started by the Catholics:
While established in 1988 by scholars who were mostly Roman Catholic, CESNUR has had from its very beginning boards of directors including scholars of a variety of religious persuasions.

Why did they reduce from 1000s of people to just 30 key members for this levelling off?
Because if that's the job in hand, and you don't needs 1000s there you send them home. Otherwise you have to feed them. And than costs £££
You only have on site who you need. Simples.
Seriously, armageddon is not coming. Until you research all this stuff in-depth you will be a slave to their ever changing teachings forever.
And if you are going to the hall, then your're not a former brother.

This is what 300 hectares looks like (298 to be precise):
I've left Chelmsford in for context...

Your post just makes the point, dont believe everything you read on the internet, you are clearly wrong and I am correct here.
How are you correct? You have produced zero evidence!
Where is your proof?
Rocking up on a internet board writing without producing evidence is not proof of being correct!
Just ask anybody who knows about Chelsmford, did they buy hundreds more acres after the original 82? Yes they did.
300 hectares = over 740 acres of land.
Which is huge. Where exactly is this vast swathe of land? Because I know Essex very well so do tell.
Evidence is not asking a mate what he has heard!
I say you're making stuff up, so produce evidence or go away.
i haven't seen this mentioned yet.
last year in the uk, shortly after the money grab that everyone had, we had a video and letter (both probably still available from atlantis) appealing for money for the new bethel and slips were handed out etc.
this means that most uk congregations are sending a regular donation specifically for the chelmsford build.
something big being built underground at the site
Maybe it's a powerplant room? Or a laundry?
(Pssst. It won't be anything to do with armageddon, so don't fret)

Nonsense. They won't pay people to do that and they're scaling back at Bethel. Local JW fantasy talk.
over 300 Hectares of beautiful forests and country walks or bike riding. Strictly only for JW's they are also setting up a very high end security system with border security.
Nonsense. They have not bought 300 hectares. More local JW fantasy talk.
You can only gain entry to the compound on the invite of one of the Bethelites or if you book a tour, then you will be recorded and given an electronic badge which you have to keep with you at all times. Each badge has a locator on it and everybody will be tracked 100% of the time, if anybody is found without the locator badge there will be an investigation and all activities will be recorded by the hundreds of high end HD cameras everywhere.
Nonsense. Total JW fantasy. Investigate what? That someone took the badge off when they were in the loo?
Go back to pumping silver.
And you're username is contrary to your posting activity.
please be aware of everything that is happening around the world at this moment in time.
this goes to anyone, ex-communicated, removed, serving, believer and non.
at this point in my observations i have realized many religions/ideologies know there is some sort "end of time" or a transition into a new order of living in this earth.
I have souRces
You should probably get some cream for that.
why does everyone just turn a blind eye to the false teachings of the watchtower?
the bible warns us many times and in many ways not to follow false prophets - including the lake of fire.
fundamentally why do the followers of the watchtower just ignore the very bible they claim to live by?.
But your grand children won't...
Our grandkids won't worry about religion, anymore that the growing number of young people today do. In the West in particular, it is in the dustbin of history.
It doesn't matter who you are, human beings love rituals.
Yes they do. Going to the shopping mall, the restaurants, bowling, movies and so on. Without any need for the sky fairy nonsense that goes with some rituals.
