They are still confronted with the dilemma of CONTENT. They have created a monster (the R&F) that expects forward progress in the coming of Armageddon and the New Order. Even though the WTS essentially turned the firehose on them with their dilution of the 1914 dead end prophecy, they still want more of the addictive drug - anticipation. The special study edition might even backfire by creating a more focused study (and scrutiny) of what the WTS is putting out as "light" and "spiritual food in due season".

Almost 2000 years before Jesus was talking about a heavenly afterlife the pagan Egyptians were erecting pyramids for their pharoahs and stocking them with supplies for the "afterlife". The Chinese were doing the same thing even before that.
The whole resurrection, spirit life concept was thought up by the pagans long before the Christians came along with their "ransom sacrifice" doctrine.

The very best, proven way to keep the ghosts, demons, apparitions or any other paranormal phenomenom away is to set up a video camera or any other device that would prove they exist. For some reason these sons of bitches seem to know when someone is trying to pull a "ghost paparazzi" on them. Clever bastards!

Is your son aware of this? You don't want to tape any animal abuse like chicken choking or monkey spanking.

I wonder what constipated illiterate people do to kill time? Maybe they should take a couple of pieces of fruit to munch on while grunting.

OK... So it's TOE the line
by zack in"toe the line" ---- like soldiers lining up in formation, their toes are in line, dress-right-dress.
heil the furher!
"tow the line"--- means nothing like it---- means nothing really..

No such word as "irregardless" but, regardless, you hear it used a lot.
Most people mispronounce the word "grievous" a two syllable word, by saying "Gree-vee-us", three syllables.

Stop, pull your ski mask down over your face and start walking toward her, I'm sure she would feel relieved that someone had stopped to help.
