  The New Jerusalem

  by gordon d in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  okay... this is how my mind works...sometimes...when i'm avoiding doing my work.

  based upon the dimensions given in the bible, the new jerusalem is pretty big.

  if only 144,000 actually get to go inside and live there, that would mean that each room is more than 22,000 cubic miles in volume!!!

  Our Lawsuit against the WTS

  by gordon d in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  can anyone share their input (stupid question) on the possibilties of former jw's or df'd dubs filing a personal or class action lawsuit against the wts or it's local congregations based upon defamation of character.

  in some states there is the provision of a slander/libel suit based upon "malicious use of truthful information".

  i would think that some precidence has been established by similar suits against other social and religious groups.

  Child abuse on WTS website

  by gordon d in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  in light of the recent press against the wts on the issue of child abuse, i'm not sure if the posting on the wts site about sexual abuse of children is blatant hypocracy or an attept to show just how "bad" the problem is with other groups so that the few 100/1000 cases among dubs pales in comparison.

  hello... mr. kettle, mr. pot here.... just thought you should know, you're black!

  Question about apostosy

  by gordon d in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  please correct me if i'm wrong.... .

  isn't the wtbts's stance on apostacy defined as a member who denounces the authority of one of god's holy spirit inspired spokesmen?

  if so, when paul and barnabas had the argument over taking mark on a mission trip.... which one was apostate?

  i saw the forecast change 3 times in one day... yet i still keep tuning in.

  my wife ( who was never a witness ) said "just keep watching, maybe the light will get brighter!
