New Light! Invisible Armageddon!
by jstalin init is going to be announced that with all the anticipation for the coming of armageddon, we didnt notice the actual event.
thats right, it was an invisible armageddon.
if we take the 70 years of captivity, plus 1914, we get 1984. then we use the people equal hours rule and apply it to the 144,000, using division, and we get 6,000. then we use the hours equal years rule to divide 6,000 by 360 to get 16.66 additional years, add that to 1984, and we get the year 2000 for armageddon!

Lucid Dreaming -- Ever done it? Can you do it at will?
by AlmostAtheist insomething tipped you off; a guy with a hat made of dead fish, your mom complimenting your clothing choice, wording on billboards change each time you look at them -- something that you know wouldn't happen in real life.. sometimes in dreams you just buy it, like it's perfectly normal to wear a fish hat.
but some lucky times you catch it, and then all bets are off!
fly, eat like a pig, kick puppies -- the sky's the limit!.

Yep! The Village where the WTS is building it's own paradise on earth...I forgot what the monster was called....but it was fictional to keep the others from going outside and learning the truth.

When I was a kid...the family went out blackberry picking and my Mother made the best blackberry cobblers...sooooooooo good...she has gone now....
I can't find any store bought to compare with hers and blackberries are to expensive to buy for making cobbler so the next best is my homemade apple pie or pumpkin pie. My kids beg me to make them every year at this time when the fruit is ripe and ready. My secret, I put more ginger in my pies than it calls for in a recipe.

by greendawn inif a really big scandal happened in the wts and the r&f realised that the organisation is the big con that it is, how do you think they would react?
empty kingdom halls?

How many Jws R&F know one of the anointed on the GB was disfellowshipped? Not to many I suspect!

Dont try so hard. You have made a choice, now live it. You left the ORG. but it seems to me you are still, as some would say, "TRAPPED BY IT" You are free to do what you want. Free to talk to who you want and so on. Just my 2 cents
D.
Ok deft, how many hours do you count when witnessing on this board? Fess-up!
