in memory of jimmy olson, i have provided a link to his story below.
many who now post here are new to the forum and i felt it was necessary to honor his memory.
although i never knew him, his brother was my roommate for a time at watchtower farms.
When i first saw this post my mind went to J.O. of the Daily Planet .Not to be.
That is so sad,
.I have heard reference to this case over the years but not knowing much about it .
Thank you for posting this sparky1 ,and it shows the un-natural affection JW`s have for their fellow man and their spiritual brother.
an org myth debunked - by the book they claim to have a better understanding of, than other religions.wt14 11/15 p. 30 - who are the two witnesses mentioned in revelation chapter 11?.
"......the account refers to god’s anointed ones who took the lead during a difficult time of testing.. so in the fulfillment of revelation chapter 11, the anointed brothers who took the lead at the time of the establishment of god’s kingdom in heaven in 1914 preached "in sackcloth" for three and a half years.
at the end of their preaching in sackcloth, these anointed ones were symbolically killed when they were thrown into prison for a comparatively shorter period of time, a symbolic three and a half days.
But wouldnt the witnesses say that the League of Nations and the United nations are virtually the same thing ? so no problem ?
Or am I missing the point somewhere here.
ps. this is another post that doesnt seem to have generated much interest

The WTB&TS have definetly got a PROFIT prize .

boring post below, fyi.. i was with extended family this weekend and the conversation drifted to contributions and donations.
they said amazon will donate a percentage of your purchase to a charity of choice.
i guess someone put in jdumbs and it went through.
I am also surprised that it has not generated more discussion , thanks mp for putting it out their in the first place and your expanding on it rebel8
Maybe everybody is waiting on Jehovah , that could explain it.
The searcher , I started watching this and couldnt stop watching the ones that followed .
The little boy playing the piano in a toy shop is classic also.
Thanks for sharing
marked to watch your contribution Giordano .
jehovah's witnesses believe:.
1. man was created in 4026 bce.
2. a global flood occurred in 2370 bce.
When Jah created the garden of Eden ,he obviously created thorns and thistles ,weeds , etc, outside the garden of Eden , because Adam was supposed to cultivate the ground and expand the garden of Eden outwards.
Not to mention the fact he would have had to cultivate the ground with his bare hands , as no tools had yet been invented ,except for the flaming sword that Jehovah apparently invented a little later on.

may 21, 2016. we are pleased to inform you that electronic versions of the annual items for 2017 will be made available for download on jw.org beginning in october of this year.
this includes examining the scriptures daily—2017 and the 2017 yearbook of jehovah’s witnesses.
They could also come up with "WT spin" that the early Christians didnt count numbers , and they have now disbanded such a practice in line with a new truth .
On the other hand they could print a significant downturn of publishers reporting , a negative growth overall , and very few baptisms for the year 2016 .
Pointing to the scriptures that in the last days "the love of the greater number will cool off" showing just how much closer we are to Gods Judgement on the world at large.

a jehovah’s witness and her deadly devotion.
did a jehovah’s witness die after refusing a blood transfusion, and should the state have let it happen?.
Thanks for your help Barbara , much appreciated
so the wife and i were uninvited to another jw get together which we didn't want to go to anyways.
finally we find out that something on my facebook account is getting some people's in my old halls undies in a bunch.
so i was thinking of meeting with them to at least clear my wife's name and give them some much needed hell.
Why dont you and your wife DA yourselves from the religion of JW`s , in that way you take away their percieved control over you , because you are in effect DF them out of your lives once and for all.
Who cares how they word it to the congregation , you know you have disowned them ....End of story.
