  have we had any new light on who the king of the north is at the present time because i need a reminder .i haven't read anything about him since the 1960s.and the last time i tried explaining it to a little old lady at the door the russian missiles were on the their way to cuba and the late night news reader, that night ,said " goodnight everyone and i hope you all have a peaceful and restfull night," which was very unusual because radio announcers did not comment after the news in those days.. thunder and lightning, frightning very very frightning, bealzeebub moma mia moma mia!.

  How about somebody phoning Brooklyn and ask if it's ok to participate in the parent teachers ,board of governers meetings at the local school especially when they are planning the nativity for christmas and organizing a birthday collection for one of the prominent members.Also is it ok to engage with the interfaith meetings around Easter time.

  do the brooklyn boys have outside help when it comes to making changes within the borg?

  i'm thinking in terms of man management advisors or public relations experts etc.

  or do they just make all the cock ups on their own ?

  You know it never ceases to surprise me that some of these Witlesses are so astonished that some one could walk away from the so called truth.They think of it as something amounting to suicide, that's how nuts they are.They think they are so damn right.

  I come down on the side which says the guy is a hypo-critter .Keep seperate from the world that's what the org. used to teach when I was in the mob.Local school, YMCA what's the difference.How many Jehovah kids could go to youth club,sea cadets,girl guides,boy scouts.Hey suppose it was a Church of England school what then?

  It was the hypocritical nature of the witlesses that started me thinking you can't run with the hare and the hounds so I got out of the confusing morasss of nonsense.

  Welcome SiouxChief,

  For many moons now I have been pondering on the reality of the great spirit in the sky. Please can you tell us from a Native American point of view who exactly is the great spirit and is their an after life.

  The Bible mans word not God's

  by edmond dantes in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  let's see now what do we have before us, why it's the bible and a group of self importent egotistical leaders of the world wide movement known as the jehovahs witnesses.let us assume for a moment that the bible is just an ordinary book not inspired by an almighty god but inspired by mere mortals and in it are contained the words of ordinary humans who claim to be speaking from divine authority and by direction of that same authority.

  suppose it is just a collection of myths and legends, we say that because there is no tangible proof otherwise, so why should we say it's from the creator when it is without a doubt written by humans.in it are words of wisdom but you can find words of wisdom all over the place and we don't claim those to be inspired by god because they are formed by mans intelligence.. as for the people who put themselves forward as leaders of a man made organisation namely the watchtower society ,they are just cooking the books of the man made bible and serving up a concoction of man made ideas leading to nowhere in particular and the worst part about it is the fact they have been doing it for over one hundred years and achieving nothing whatsoever to the betterment of the residents of this planet, in fact they can be a detriment and a hinderence to a persons progress through life.

  can anyone make a list of the good achievments of the watchtower leaders over the last one hundred years?.

  Real one ,I know the nwt is translated by a biased committee of one but what I mean is the original scriptures are mens thoughts about God.For instance if King David won a battle he would claim God was on his side which would have the effect of his people believing it as well.

  J canon hi,

  What do you mean God has spoken to you personally, prove it and what exactly did he say , what is your tangible evidence?

  When I see a fly crawling up a wall I have tangible proof of the event.When someone says God is there or was there or did that I have to have imagination to believe it but I do not with the fly because it's there right in front of my eyes and a blind man could hear it's buzz.But you might say we hear God's buzz ,that to me is not tangible proof of the God in the bible.The buzz might be proof of a great spirit or powerful force .

  I have come to think in terms of nature or creation if I want to understand the Great Originator, for instance when I see a beautiful landscape as the sun rises on a perfect morning I ask myself why has it been made to look so fantastic if it wasn't made for humans to appreciate.All the imagination of man writing the Bible hasn't given us the definitive answer.

  So I am saying it is time to look for the first great cause from outside the Bible
