  Can someone recommend me a history book?

  by slimboyfat in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  not on a specific subject, just in general.

  history is my favourite subject and i'd like to maybe try something i wouldn't normally pick up.

  has anyone read any really good history books recently they would recommend?.

  Many good suggestions here, and I would add James Burke's Connections video series, of which there was an original and several follow up ones.

  If you are inclined to read ebooks, here is Outline of History, for free!

  "Suggested" Donation when attending Circuit Assembly

  by BluesBrother in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i could have called this "fee now charged to go to circuit assembly" but i do not want to start rumours that go beyond what was actually said.

  the k hall announcement encouraged attendance at the upcoming assembly day.

  the elder then said that since the congregation no longer has to make a blanket donation to the assembly hall it is expected that the publishers remember their responsibility to maintain the costs.

  I seem to recall Jesus said " Who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?" and not " Who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to sell them their food at the proper time?"

  Very Good News Regarding Inexpensive Green Energy That Can Drastically Change Our World

  by JamesThomas in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i, like many of you, love science and the new breakthroughs that are happening on almost a daily basis.

  i particularly am enamored by new nonpolluting energy technologies.

  technologies that can put a halt to our co2 emissions and also be used to easily scrub our atmosphere and waters clean.

  I have a simple proposal.

  Sell me a unit that I can power my home with and cut myself off the grid, that costs me less than being on the grid.

  Where can I get one?

  When someone posts a video response, the original video poster must approve of it.

  No other magazine comes close to the amount of

  bombastic claims, nonsensical theories and

  fallacious reasoning as the Watchtower.

  Crackpot pontification for over 130 years!
