Here is another twist to this. Maybe God used the theory of special relativity to put the earth into a time warp where time itself ran much slower than usual. So Joshua would have felt that the sun was standing still when in fact it was the earth's time frame that had slowed down. This would have avoided the messy reality of actually stoppiing the solar system.

Why the Watchtower Society Interprets Genesis Non-Literally
by AlanF ina literal interpretation of this passage shows that the author of the passage viewed the earth as the center of the universe, with the sun and moon going around it.
just why does the watchtower society view passages such as in joshua 10:12-14 as not literal?
the creation account in genesis and exodus.

JW at the door...thanks for the tips...
by mama1119 inthis morning we had a fleet of jw in the neighborhood and they came a knockin...my husband answered the door, (as they would have recognized me..he is "wordly").
we used some of the tips off of the "how to get rid of a jw thread" he kept asking them if they were with the jehovahs and if they were a jehovah, they kept correcting him bless their souls and he kept doing it.
then, when they tried to place the mags he said, "first can i get your address?

Now I can understand why some of the people who answered the door (yes I was guilty of flogging the mags too) were mad at me. Hehehehe - memories ... those sweet memories.
Actually that is a very good - "what is YOUR address" . I bet that makes the dubs cringe and want to make a hurried escape the nearest Tim Hortons. Not only that, the witnesses were not alowed to preach about armagedon thus sparing the life of the householder.
Here is another thing one can do with witnessess at the door. Since they are on your property you have the right to give the witnessess apostate literature. When they refuse your literature, just say that you cannot accept the watchtower mags because you consider them apostate literature. The witnesses should make a hasty retreat after that As they leave your doorstep say the governing body are apostate too, that should make them run.

Should Witnesses Go on A Killing Spree?
by ThomasCovenant ininteresting quote (i think) from watchtower 1952 june 1st page 347. .
the society appear to tackle head on a flaw in their preaching.
however, they put forward the scenario which i agree with but their answer is sadly unconvincing.

Since this news is only 1 day old maybe some of you sneaky exJWs could get a copy of that letter and post it here. All I know is the Jws that I know are acting really weird lately
