I used to watch The Wild, Wild West on TV. Of course, that was 52 years ago. And I was 12 years old.

Still dont get the friggin birthdays

by nowawake14 in

i have read extensively about the origins of birthdays, and i still don't get it.

but it's not what it means today.. even wedding veils were used to ward off the "evil eye".

but it's not what it means today.

Ain't NEW LIGHT grand! If you were one of the Anointed Remnant and celebrated birthdays pre-1926 and died before that time, you were resurrected to immortal heavenly life to reign with Jesus Christ. Nowadays if you claim to be of the Anointed Remnant and celebrate someone's birthday you open yourself up to being disfellowshipped and losing out on immortality. Makes perfect sense to me.

alyssa milano is saying that women have to go on a sex strike to take control of their bodies.

what do you think about this?.

It doesn't appear that a sex strike would affect this enterprising Bethelite...whether it involves Alyssa Milano or not!

How to explain the Overlapping Generations Doctrine

by HiddenPimo in

so after much research i came to the following conclusion:.

.

The Overlapping Whisky Doctrine is as follows:

It all started with Russell's whiskey. After a time and times and half a time of imbibing this spirit, Pastor Russell appointed himself the spiritual guide of Jehovah's people and came up with the 1914 doctrine. And then he died.

As an overlapping peer to Pastor Russell, upon his death, Judge Rutherford became the new spiritual guide of Jehovah's people. After an entire generation of imbibing this spirit, Rutherford came up with the doctrine of 'Millions Now Living Will Never Die'. And then he died.

As an overlapping peer to Judge Rutherford, upon his death, Fredrick Franz became the new spiritual guide of Jehovah's people. Since he was mostly a tea totaller , the spirit ran wild with this one. Franz came up with the doctrine of Armageddon by 1975. And then he died.

And now in the year 2019 we are blessed with Governing Body 2.0, some of whom supposedly overlapped with Fredrick Franz. We now realize that the 'spirit' that motivates these spiritual guides is probably Macallan's single malt. They have come up with the doctrines of tight pants, spanx and making a science out of begging for money. And soon they too will die. Lord only knows what 'spirit' will motivate the overlapping Governing Body 3.0.

what prevents me from getting baptized?

by road to nowhere in

todays wt what a bunch of hooey.

try: nobody can explain the beliefs from the bible; there are lots of "rules" beyond tdhe ones on morals enforced(beards, movies),.

the "gifts in men" are in the least incompetent overworked well meaning; but others are overbearing power hungry bullies.

In other words...just the same old bullshit recycled again for another Watchtower Study.

Jehovah is now reaching out to the deaf via the cart work

by ShirleyW in

this week i saw a cart in the subway station, but in front of the rags they had a tablet showing a video.

the video was of a guy doing sign language and i bet my bottom dollar it's the same guy that did the ever popular "don't yank the wank" video.

when i first noticed it i actually thought they were showing that video, but that guy is so over the top with his signing, but i didn't see him signing the actual wank part from the other video.

What was the message for the cart work that day? Don't be a jerk.........worship Jehovah and "repent of the works of their hands." Revelation 9:20 NWT
