Could Humor help the WTBTS Demise
by stillajwexelder inpaul mccartney did a concerty in red square -- many russians admitted music is universal and rock music and the beatles in particular had a hand in the downfall of communism.
my brother (who works in london) has just scanned in and sent me viz magazine with the new character - and he said "what i thought was funny though was it showed all jw's as radio controlled robots acting like the borg" my question is -- if you criticize jws the ywill refuse to listen --but is it just possible with humor like this -- it might just make them think --- so most young witnesses listen to rock music -- but do you think that humor can help bring about the demise/reform of the wtbts

UK & IRELAND MAP
by ballistic ini had an idea that i could build a uk map of everyones location which would show you instantly who is in your area from jwd.. (it might be an idea to do a seperate us one aswell but i'll wait and see if this one takes off first, or if anyone from the us wants to volunteer to do that one).
(and australia but you are all in the same backyard anyway - literally!!!).
anyway, all you have to do is post or email me your username and town and i will draw you on the map above which will change gradually to include everyone!.

The three wise men
by Simon injust a thought.... looking through the greatest man book, something just occurred to me which i can't recall has ever been highlighted (but please correct me).. i always thought it a bit strange that jehovah allowed the three pagan astrologers to find jesus especially as they were obviously guided to him by satan's star (remember they were led to herod first who wanted to kill the messiah).
what purpose did it serve?.
well, a few pages earlier in tgm book, we see mary presenting a dove as a sin offering at the temple - this was the cheapest offering that was acceptable which must have meant that they were pretty poor at the time.. shortly after the three wise men visited the family had to flee to egypt when herod started to kill all the young boys in an attempt to kill jesus.. what would they need to travel and live as exiles for a couple of years?.
