While we are on the topic of obeying commands....What about the "not judging" one? Or the "forgiving" command? They were never investigated, observed, or even questioned. it is like they seen them as insane orders or something. It amazes me they are serious about the command that they pass stuff around showing superiority over others.(Which they have twisted) But never thought about the most important ones, dismissing them as orders for the lowly sheep to follow? I'll bet Jesus is pissed. They could have at least questioned them. I did.

What will be the next big 'new light'?
by yaddayadda init's been a while since the watchtower overlords made any serious doctrinal changes.
wts 'new light' seems to be somewhat cyclical, around every ten years or so.
it's been just over 10 years since the 1995 'this generation' change.

Boy....You are right, they really screwed up bad with the blood thing!
I think you are right, they must continue to go on telling people they must put their faith in them and choose to die, rather then disobey to live. Even though, they know better now.
How about.....we are really sorry we misinterperted the scriptures and your son died, But you should have put your faith in Jehovah, and not men. If you had done so, and were not so easially misled, your son would be alive today.
THAT'S how you hold on to your power and authority, while giving the responsibility to someone else to bear. I would be shocked to see one of these leaders actually buck up and attempt to accept some responsibilty for this madness.

I took it he was more concerned with Saddam then OBL by his actions.
They can find SH in a little bitty hole, but can't find OBL? Why is that? Why would GWB really want to do away with the threats that make his job nessesary. Yeah ok, I am working on an experiment right now that will allow your car to fix itself. But all the death threats from other mechanics are slowing my progress down.

I wonder If OBL would put himself in harms way, or die to help protect GWB and his power. Or could GWB prove somehow this is not the case, and we are in fact off base with these theories? I would like to know the truth, whatever it is.

If we forgive everyone who sins against us, does that not free us from sin?
by DavidChristopher ini mean, is that not like having a free pass to do as you please?
as long as you freely forgive, when people sin against you, then does that mean our father will forgive us 99 times when we sin against him?.
sure wouldn't be hard to convince people to obey that command would it?

I think you all have alot of different theories, that are crediable too. But nobody knows his intentions, but him and Jehovah. If he is not allowed to speak, we will never know either. I think a truce would be Bush's worst nightmare, and he will never allow it to happen. nor will various arms dealers. There is too much money to be lost by peace. I would be nice to hear him live explain what has been going through his head. It would be an awesome experience! it is too bad some dumbass flunky will off him before we get to hear the truth.

What about convicing them what they are doing is not right and is hurting you? Is that a better defense than shooting them? I realize it is not the easy way out, but is it the best way to deal with misguided children?

Well, Why not let the one who knows hearts and intentions judge them? I would say though, if you have no sin to be forgiven, or have never had bad thoughts, I would elect you to take care of them for me. Or "cast the first stone" if you will. Do you want the job? I am currently taking applications.
