i have heard speculation that he could be burried in san diego at beth sarim or somewhere on statin island ny.
why is this such a big secret to the wt?
is there anyone still alive who knows where rutherford was burried?.
At the end of chapter 6 of Barbara Grizzuti Harrison's Visions of Glory: A History and a Memory of Jehovah's Witnesses , there is this:
"I worked, the summer of 1953, at the Watchtower cannery in Woodrow, and I never knew Rutherford's grave was there. For all his public exposure, the private man remained mysterious, remote, inaccessible. His grave is unvisited."
i know that some of you might think that i really should be reading the wt but with a husband still in and being that i am still very tied to the religion though him i want to know what is up with them in some ways.. the march 15th wt made me feel sick.
on page 5 it was talking about how we need to wait on jehovah.
it was really the same old stuff but i feel with a different twist.
Any word on how Andre is doing?
well, this is an information from a certain forum (2ch) in japan.. according to that information, apparently, that is in the article of "awake!, july 2010. p.21".
in that article (awake!
july 2010), the tetragrammaton (yhwh) is drawn in the triangle.. but when looking carefully, a part of those hebrew is different.. .
And who shot Kennedy?

And interestingly, the Hebrew word "W"(waw) means the figure "6."
Therefore, that is '666'.
Aha! As I've always suspected: THE INTERNET IS THE ANTICHRIST!!! (www=666). The internet was foretold in the bible! THIS MEANS THE BIBLE IS TRUE! GO TELL YOUR NEIGHBORS!
i was reading a article about a national acclaim charles lummis for.
his poetry.
in 1884, while working at a newspaper in ohio, he was offered.
All this nonsense was made up before listeners had the math and logic skills to say, "Hold up, WTF?"
Which reminds me of JWs today. They're the modern day Israelites.... wandering around in a desert waiting for the promised land...except they never get there. They'll die never having received entry. <-- good point
what is the source of this photo?.
was this printed in a wts's publication?.
although i know this photo well, i'd like to have persuasiveness when i explain to other people.. .
They were just getting ready for service. (The "service" was about to be provided by the lady in the flapper hat.)
this has been discussed before in other threads and probably in threads of its own, but it is probably time to re-hash the topic.. when paul told timothy that "all scripture is inspired of god..." what "scripture" was he talking about?
did he have the ego to include his own personal letters to the congregations?
did he also mean to include the books and letters not written at the time that the catholic church would choose for its canon a couple hundred years later?
My answer will also answer Shelby's point from above.
Inspired by God doesn't mean the same then as we want it or take it to me NOW, we keep forgetting that.
Luke was inspired By God to write, inspired by his love for God and Jesus and that love inspired him to write what he knew about Jesus's work, not only based on what he was told and saw, but by organizing the works he had access to.
Inspired by God didn't mean "God speaking via the HS through Luke", no more than it would mean that about the current apologists that write about Christianity.
I think we are confusing "inspired by God" with "The inspired WORD of God".
Ok. Because of my love for trees, and especially the one in my front yard (who I call Rick), I have written a book called "Book of Front Yard Trees."
Therefore, in a sense, I was inspired by Rick to write "Book of Front Yard Trees."
Also, last week I fell in love with the beautilful young barister (Sally) down at the Starbucks, so I went home and wrote "Ode to my lovely barister."
Therefore, in a sense, I was inspired by Sally to write "Ode to my lovely barister."
this is an exact copy of my letter to the watchtower.
it never recieved a reply (i did not include 'attn writing committee' in the address however).
please keep in mind that when i wrote this i had just started my intensive research into their beliefs/history, and despite my agressive tone i really did expect a satisfactory answer.
Would not, then, the end of six millenniums of mankind's laborious enslavement under Satan the Devil be the fitting time for Jehovah God to usher in a Sabbath millennium for all his human creatures? Yes, indeed!
Don't you just know that Freddie had a mind-blowing orgasm when he wrote that sentence. "Yes, indeed!", indeed.
i'll start off.. i don't believe anything is divine about bible writings.
i believe there may be some marginal history although not much.
i think alot of folk tales and regional myths are contained in the old testament.
Angelic DNA? Whoooaaaa.
a full billboard ad in my area along a busy heavily travelled highway would cost about $500.
would probably get lots of attention and maybe even a news article, who knows.
$500 is cheap and easily affordable.
Let it be.
